#142 “The Talk”
So, hear me out. Call me crazy, but I think Tim’s Mom Ruth is actually Lady Blackheart!
I mean, she has the same mole, and her hair is similar… and their special text colour is the same! Also, what other Noxian wears high-heeled shoes? Nobody. They don’t wear shoes! And Also, also: Moonlight went to call Blackheart “R-” that one time in the bath… and Thomas calls her ‘Vice Admiral Ruthless!’ when they were roll playing. I think that’s it though…
So yeah, that’s my theory. What do you guys think?! 😉
And stay tuned: There’s a bonus page coming up very soon (a few hours from now!) to make up for all the bi-weekly nonsense lately.
So, Shadow “suspects”!
What are the clues we’ve seen that’s so?
Or has Brandon been doing dastardly author tricks and not revealing vital information?
Really, only the double-take after they left the house before trick-or-treating. It’s a small thing, but enough to raise a flag.
Ah yes pp 121 126 and so on (i looked them up but my mind is failing)
Advice to all readers “Never grow old.”)
It’s always funny to hear you young people talking about women like Tim’s mom as a MILF. I just think of her as a sexy younger woman. ;^)>
You do know the m in MILF simply means mom or mother right? It has nothing to do with age just parental status, girls as young as 12 years old can be milfs as long as they have children.
12? No. That certainly eliminates the ILF part of the acronym for me… It’s NOT OKAY! :-O
What the actual fuck man.
Actually that theory would make more sense than his mom being just a human.
Especially since that last panel has her with yellow skin, white hair, and what look like claws.
Yes!!! After the buildup and all the suspicions going back and forth, the reveal was executed masterfully and still quite worth the wait!
Thanks for doing what you do Brandon! You’re one of the people who inspired my girlfriend and I to do our own comic!
My friend was like “I thought you’d be more excited.”
And I was like “what do you mean?”
And he was like “two pages were uploaded 2 days ago. And you won’t be disappointed.”
This is a start for a good year.😍
I like the fact that for years, the son and the parents are keeping secrets from each other.
I like the fact that Tim had the perfect Freddy Cugger Costume but forgot the messed up face
I also liked that Shadow had the perfect LRRH costume but…nevermind she was spot on.
Brandon: “So, hear me out. Call me crazy, but I think Tim’s Mom Ruth is actually Lady Blackheart!”
*Starts getting tillted*
Brandon: “I mean, she has the same mole, and her hair is similar… and their special text colour is the same! Also, what other Noxian wears high-heeled shoes? Nobody. They don’t wear shoes!

*Eye starts twitching*
Brandon: “So yeah, that’s my theory. What do you guys think?! 😉”
My brother: “are you ok?”
Me: “I need to go outside to play basketball”
*Goes outside*
“OH MY F***ING GOD, BRANDON. I HOPE YOU ARE PROUD OF YOURSELF. YOU MANAGE TO DO IN ONE POST WHAT AN ENTIRE SCHOOL HASN’T BEEN ABLE TO DO IN TWO YEARS. YOU HAVE ME TILTED AF, AND YOU EXPECT FOR ME TO STAY QUIET? NO, WE ARE BEYOOOOOND THAT BS! I MEAN, YOU INTRODUCE A CHARACTER, AND SAY SHIT LIKE, “Sorry, I’m showing her yet” AND CONTINUE TO SAY THAT AND DROP HINTS LIKE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO PREDICT WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO IN THE NEXT, OH I DON’T KNOOOOW, 47 PAGES OR SOME SHIT????? AND THEN YOU COME IN WITH THE REVEAL!! NOW I WOULD HAVE BEEN FINE WITH BLACKHEART BEING THE MOM OR SOME RANDOM SHIT PERSON, BUT NOOOOOOOOO. YOU HAD TO SARCASTICLY PUT THAT TOGETHER JUST TO TICK US OFF.
*Starts yelling and punching random stuff until I break down crying.*
*Sob* “It not fair! It *sniff* not fair. *Incoherent Sobs* “I’m going to shit post online”.
Nah but seriously, good job. You kind of played us and managed to perfectly pick the one moment where the comic wasn’t on my mind. Keep up the good work. Luckily, your not the type of person to say the one thing that could tick someone off even more.
I honestly felt some feeling inside me. A feeling that I have been suppressing for a long time. A-
Random Person reading this comment: “WE GET IT YOU FELT LIKE SHIT-POSTING”
-__- *sigh* people will never understand me
*tries to shoots Ritalin pills in your mouth with a sling shot* Are you Okay buddy? Haha, relax bro! XD
I liked the Tim and Shadow story but if Tim’s parents had the exact same thing going on then Tim’s and Shadow’s children could repeat the story too. Then it’s basically an endless cycle and I feel like it makes the whole interspecies relationship less special.
Well, one could say it’s a pattern that’s leading somewhere, but let’s not dwell on that.
Now that we officially know what most of us already figured a long time ago, it officially makes Tim half-noxian.
Any chidren Tim and Shadow may get together will be 75% noxian, even if raised human as Tim was.
So, the next question is, can he (and future 2nd generation children) shapeshift as well, or is he (and they) permanently locked in human shape?
Second question, will he be able to visit Nox (which itself might require being in Noxian shape)?
I wouldn’t be so sure about that 75% yet… just saying. 😉
Wow.. talk about MILF…… and she’s also a mother too!
Do you even know what milf means?
Oh shit, can’t believe I missed this reply so long ago..
You forgot about another word that starts with “m” that also applies to his mother.. Think about it.. It’s even in the URL..
I think…that you are being far too cute about this reveal. butter wouldn’t melt in your mouth, oh no. XD
We all knew this was coming, and you still managed to make it great. Kudos to you for a flawlessly executed Un-Reveal.
Am I misremembering or did this comic use to be SFW? XD
It never really was supposed to be, I just got very side-tracked with the childhood plotline.
So… why is Tim so normal looking if he has a monster mother? oO
You know tom is short for Thomas, Right? Not Thom?
