      Danny. At least with Mouri, the ACTUAL explanation sounds just as ridiculous as the lie.

      “Oh, so you are actually a seventeen year old who was given an experimental poison that had a million to one chance of taking a decade off your age. Well, obviously, why didn’t I figure that out right away?.”

          Mostly only in the movies. He’s occasionally shown to be a competent detective in the show when he actually bothers to pay attention, but only rarely. He’s skeptical of Conan pretty often too.

          That said, it’s pretty hard to give a free pass to a guy who decides “oh I just started passing out and solving crimes while asleep all the time, ok” no matter how absurd the reason for his little naps is.

      Perhaps after facepunches and confusion, he’ll give up on Amazi-Girl and go crawling to his fallback, Amber. He’ll tell her that Amazi-Girl’s roommate revealed his girlfriend’s secret identity, and perhaps he should break up with Amazi-Girl and get together with Amber. (If she’ll take him back.)

    Billie, it’s called thigh muscle. You used to have it. Hell, you should still have it, considering how short a time ago it was you were a cheerleader. As long as you wear a pair that fits your weight, with a top that actually sits in a comfortable place between your waist and hips, they should stay up just fine.

    …Willis, dude, seriously. Leggings fit just fine, ripped or not, when you buy good quality ones that fit you, especially when you have great muscle definition in your thighs, like someone who rides a motorcycle and escapes out windows would.

        My only problem with them is the legging band would be visible at the top of her shorts. From yesterday, they seem like they’d be hanging up from the crotch of her shorts, as they should be visible with how low her shorts are.

    Billie seems to actually believe this what she’s saying. I don’t get how heels would be in anyway conducive to riding a motorcycle, though.

    I also have trouble buying into the whole “Danny makes mistakes because he’s supposed to be a more realistic character” business. A realistic character should be able to recognize Amber in that costume easily.

      Sal’s boots.
      Regardless of whether heels are conducive to riding a motorcycle, Billie is right about the fact that Sal’s boots change her height.

      Pity Danny never noticed that Amazi-Girl also wears height increasing boots.

    Didn’t he see her take her gloves off? You would think when a girl takes her gloves off and reaches out her hands straight up to your face you see her skin color. Not to mention her mask never seemed to cover 90% of her face anyway, and he kisses her. I mean Danny’s a total idiot, but even he noticed when she started mussing her hair. I don’t really buy this but then again I have been convinced of things I knew weren’t true by pushy enough people before. At least as someone who is very uncertain of himself he should be just as much of a pushover for Sal to tell to back off. I hope Sal stomps all over him and he learns to be a little more certain of what he knows to be true.

        It’s always been a major point of confusion with me how Willis managed to start making webcomics in an era when the average internet connection would take a full minute or more to load an image. I know a lot of people still had dial-up years later, so it seems like it was high effort for low popularity. Either way I’ve gotta admire his conviction.

          It wasn’t that bad. (I first archive-binged Roomies! on a 33.6, back in the dying days of the 20th century.) The original Roomies! strips were lower-resolution than the ones going up on BBR now, and mostly black-and-white line-art. Upshot was much smaller file sizes. Websites weren’t loaded down with all the fancy bells and whistles they have in the post-broadband social-networking world, either, so there was a lot less extraneous junk to load around the actual comic. And, really, we were used to anything we did on the Web happening at a crawl.

    At least Billie’s explanation isn’t totally stupid. Sal does do Amazi-Girl things sometimes (like climb in her window). But that’s why it doesn’t work – a superhero would generally try to avoid doing superhero things when not in costume, so that should be a red flag right there.

      I can understand Danny’s confusion in a way.
      Driving home from my out of state internship, I decided to try my hand at just using the signs on the highway and not the GPS.
      Got off on the correct exit, but panicked when I didn’t recognize anything and misread a sign.
      I turned around and ended up on the opposite side of the county.
      Turns out I was a mile from an intersection I know really well.

      Billie’s said she has seen Amazi-Girl in her own room, implying that she’s actually seen Sal “become” her, not just that she was snooping around in there. She’s also able to say it with a ton of conviction, and Danny doesn’t trust himself at all. Doubt is a hell of a drug.

    He’s overdue to get something (anything) right.
    He had doubts before Billie did her dumb number on him.

    I also bet that if he IS stupid enough to actually try to kiss her, she will flatten him. If he just introduced himself, she will just walk over him.

    Billie isn’t sure if Sal’s hair is real or a wig? I know they aren’t close as roomies and Sal is gone a lot, but that is something a roommate would notice. She must see Sal getting out of bed, for example. Danny is always ready to be convinced of what ever some on tells him.

      What was the question again?
      November 25, 2013 at 2:15 pm | #

      An early plot point in the comic was Ruth bullying billy over the issue of Billy and Sal’s cosigned room-mate’s agreement… which billy couldn’t get done because Sal was NEVER in their room while billy was conscious to sign the thing and tends to enter and exit the room via the window.

      Which is precisely why Billy thinks sal is amazi-girl – her roommate is a bad-ass weirdo loner, amazi-girl is a bad-ass weirdo loner, ERGO they are both one and the same.

      Note that Billy is the sort of person who, upon working this out, HAS TAKEN NO MEASURES WHATSOEVER to actually dig up more evidence to back her theory up, to the point where it is fairly clear that she hasn’t actually put any more thought into the notion than “I need to find who amazigirl is, maybe my roommate is amazigirl? That’ll do. Oh look, it’s miller time.”

    Ya know, there is so much Dan-hate on here–he’s vaguely annoying, but he doesn’t exactly deserve death or mutilation–that I suspect Willis will surprise us all. Maybe have Sal like Dan (it’s happened! kinda), which will then put him in an awkward position when he realizes that Sal really isn’t Amazi-Girl. Or have Dan sacrifice himself to save everyone in alternate-universe-Dina style, so that everyone will step back and say, “Wow . . . Dan was irritating, but he was an amazing guy!”

      Willis already said nobody will die.

      And Danny is hated because of that mildly annoying personality. because he never stops with it, every story leaves him just as frustrating as the last, every interaction finds a way for him to make himself act like an idiot. We give him the benefit of the doubt over and over but he always disappoints us in the end.

        Right, but it’s Willis’ writing, not actually Dan as a person doing that. I almost think it’s unfair how few times he’s gotten to do anything “right”. Also, no one is giving him any credit for being loyal and telling Amber she needs to stop trying to romance him, because everyone was upset on Amber’s behalf. The ball was entirely in her court. She didn’t even have to tell him that she was Amazi-Girl; just why she made him pretend to be her boyfriend and lie to his parents. If she’s uncomfortable with the reveal, she could at least say that she needed to be in a safe area and isn’t ready to tell him why yet. She didn’t even apologize for making him lie to his parents, yet everyone came away hating Danny for this interaction.

          In what sense does “Dan as a person” exist apart from in Willis’ writing? If you think the story is unfairly showing Danny in a misleading way, where is your idea of the “real” Danny coming from? What we see him do is all there is!

          I don’t give him credit for loyalty, because I think if he really cared for her, he would have noticed the obvious fact of her identity. I agree with John that he knows subconsciously, but is hiding it from himself, because he doesn’t want to deal with the difficulties of a real relationship. His only true loyalty is to his own dreams, and I just don’t have any respect for that.

            I don’t think it’s fair to question his loyalty because he’s unable to figure out Amber is Amazi-Girl. Amber has quite intentionally tried to hide her true identity, and it’s been proven that changing posture and mannerisms can fool people into thinking it’s someone else. Plus the fact that there is some suspension of disbelief for artistic license’s sake.

            And I’m saying everyone else is judging Dan as a person, not Dan as a person written by someone else. I don’t have a real sense of what Danny is, I just think it’s unfortunate that Willis continually chooses to write Dan as an idiot who has no hope of character progression at the moment.

            And finally, I find the idea that he’s only loyal to his dreams is a bit far-fetched. He might be loyal for the wrong reasons often, but that doesn’t mean he’s only doing it for himself.

              You say “it’s unfortunate that Willis continually chooses to write Dan as an idiot.” I utterly disagree. I think Willis’ writing is excellent, not unfortunate in any way. And Danny, as a product of that writing, IS an idiot.

              You are effectively asking Willis to write a different character: the character you think Danny should be, or could be. If that’s what you want, write your own story!

              Of course, and that is exactly what happens in a lot of superhero comics. But that would mean that this comic isn’t set in the real world: it would be a fantasy world which works by different rules. Everything we have seen so far: the setting, the characters, the story, and Willis’ comments have implied that this comic is realistic. It’s about how his characters would get on without aliens and superpowers. I hope and believe that also means without ludicrous rules that are really only there to cover up plot holes.

                If this comic was completely realistic, the cops would kinda be hunting down Amazi-Girl because masked vigilantism is pretty not okay. Also, there would be a LOT more problems and issues with how Mike beat the shit out of Joe in the middle of public on his date with Joyce. As well as the fact that characters manage to drag Dina unintentionally along without noticing they were doing it, that Sal is able to jump out of a 2 story window, Roz and Joe were able to strap a webcam to Dan’s foot without him waking up…. etc.

                There are a TON of things in this comic that aren’t completely realistic, so I don’t see why we have to suddenly act that the comic obeys all laws of realism when it comes to people recognizing Amazi-Girl as Amber.

          Dan isn’t a person. He’s a fictional construct. And I genuinely don’t care that he was loyal. I’m not upset at all, much less on amber’s behalf. Girls got issues…but she was saving him from his parents, just like he was.

            I *know* he isn’t a person. I’m saying everyone who hates him in the DoA fandom is judging him like he is one, as opposed to acknowledging that all they’re seeing is what Willis chooses to write about him.

            And while she helped Danny out, let’s not act like this was a 50/50 mutually beneficial arrangement Amber put them in. I don’t blame her for what she did, I blame her for not explaining to him as a friend afterwards why she had to take advantage of his trust.

            Also, if you’re not upset at all and don’t care about his positive or negative traits, you were not the intended audience of my post as you’re not the one unfairly judging him.

              Maybe that’s what pisses so many people off when they see him. Ninja-Jesus, you have hit the jackpot. Dan is the low-esteem, not bright but not outright stupid, lovestruck, head-in-the clouds fool that many many many of us were at one point or another in our lives. That’s why (I believe) a lot of people can’t stand him, because it reminds them of the times that they did something incredibly stupid, and he just keeps doing it over and over again.
              Hell, I’ll say it. IRL, I am Danny. I am the kinda bright, nerdy, gullible, low-self-esteem, head in the clouds, lovesick fool that acts on impulses. Only recently have I managed to pull myself together enough to do anything about it.
              But I digress. Danny is a character in a webcomic, and he exists here, in Willis’s head, and we can substitute ourselves in his place for all those times that we did stupid things without really thinking about it. Now as for how he’s written, we have no control over it so there’s no point in complaining about those that say that he needs to fall off a cliff and onto his face. There are those of us that like Danny (me and a few others), there’s a reason he wasn’t at the bottom of the poll for favorite characters. He’s the character to have hope for, and even though he’s going to Dan things up, and continue to Dan things up, and have to deal with the things he’s already Danned up, he’s also growing as a character. It’s just that we can’t really see it yet.
              So have hope, and don’t be so worried about it. Let the naysayers naysay and just smile as you watch him bumble along. He’ll figure it out eventually.

    Well, actually, he’s never actually stated he believed that really is Amazi-Girl, but even if he does, it would be off of “proof” given by Sal’s own roommate, that includes entirely pluasible points, such as that Sal is wearing heeled boots, could have worn a wig, and has been vanishing at night, when Amazi-Girl is supposed to be out and about.

    I don’t think it’s Danny being an idiot, in so much as Billie seeming to have actual proof, thus causing confusion in Danny.

      While all her evidence would probably good enough for anyone else, Danny is supposed to be Amazi-girls boyfriend so he should be able to at /least/ recognise the difference in both body shape and skin colour. Or so I’d like to think, but then again this is Danny.

      90% of louis lane comics from the silver age consisted of Louis Lane finding out that Clark Kent was superman, and then Superman being a jerk and tricking her into thinking otherwise using the most bizzare and nonsensical means neccesary.

      The other 10% was Louis Lane getting super-powers or Superman being turned into a cat or something.

      Louis Lane was not in any way stupid is what I’m getting at.

          Personality wise the mix up is understandable but anyone with two eyes should be able to see this makes no sense and it feels like Willis is trying to force this because he is using two of his stock characters who happen to look nothing a like.

    No, just no. I can’t take this seriously. Skin colour alone would make it quite obvious this a different person. Even in the dark you can tell the difference between skin tone, unless Amber is a lot less pale white and Sal is a lot lighter than this comic has led me to believe.

    As would the difference in voice and tone of the person, sure you could change that for a casual observer but when you hang out with someone over a certain amount of time its very difficult to hide.

    On top of which he even pointed out the height thing. Sure the other things can change but height? yeah, no, the only forms of doing that are easily noticable and look unnatural.

hey, kid, what do you want to play with from the cool superhero movie? is it a nude, melting senator who feels like a stretch armstrong doll that has been left out in the son and maybe mildly chewed by a neighborhood dog? WELL, SON, YOU'RE IN LUCK!
the most upsetting toy of all time: a small and horrible statue of melting, nude Senator Kelly from the first x-men film

Joyce is absolutely totally straight and just wants to hang out with her best friend, who happens to be another lady. This is normal behavior and a normal biblical quote to use that has no other context. GAL PALS

OK, I said I was going to a thread of receipts together on the guy who runs Kapow, in odder to explain why I personally would recommend not giving him your business at TFN. Starting with the original post, revealing the guy loves sharing right wing fascist stuff on LinkedIn.

Since you might think it's weird you got a like on this over a year after the fact, the director of Kapow just shared this on LinkedIn; i.imgur.com/hqQYWgO.png

This is the best review I've ever gotten on my clothes. They will make you hot and popular. Find em at rosalarian.com/shop
Text conversation that reads: 
Pink text: i just wore my pervert shirt from your site to a party last night and it was possibly the funniest conversation starter OVER AND OVER. i could have full conversations with someoen about it and then the person literally sitting on the other side of me would look over and go HEY YOUR SHIRT SAYS PERVERT?! just immaculate, best design I've ever gotten and it also scores me a whole subway bench on the train.
Black text: This is exactly the reaction I was aiming for, both at the party and on the subway
Pink text: 100% crit rate
Pink text: i was extremely popular all of a sudden
A photo of a short sleeve button up skirt that is black with the word PERVERT scrawled all over it in white handwriting
