        I very much doubt it will, but still, seeing a grown-up man beating a kid in an illegal fight club does not exactly scream “fun” to me.

        Like, sure, it was established since the beginning of this story arc that Ayzee would be fighting in a fight club, but, like, it was cartoon violence, no one was really getting hurt. Ayzee would be bitten by a demon, and it was fun just like watching an anvil fall on Will E Coyote. It was “fake”.

        But in the last few pages they’ve been using real weapons against Ayzee, and now this guy does that… It’s just… Yikes.

        I’ll keep reading, but I hope this arc ends soon and we can go back to Ayzee and her friends having fun in the silly magical world and developing crushes.

          MoringMark does have a history of getting quite angsty (he’s killed Luz multiple times). He seems to have mellowed out a bit since the show ended and he started his own continuity, and I doubt there’s gonna be any permanent harm (physically, anyway), but it wouldn’t be unheard of

          Granted… yeah, this is less angst and more just dark. We’ve very quickly run out of the “Fantasy” in Fantasy Violence here and it’s not fun anymore

          This is are very well put. Something was giving me the creep but couldn’t explicit it. I join you 100% on this. I need to learn to exprime myself like that…
