Pointless.

1. Edgar manifested his ability as a child.
2. Lydia wants him to find something.

That is all we found out in this GN. AltesUTC CH

• Personally, I enjoy graphic novels where we don't always have a big new reveal. I enjoyed just delving into the characters a bit more. I liked seeing that Edgar has secrets in his past, and getting to know Lydia and Edgar a bit deeper. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 09:18, 29 September 2009 (EDT)
  • So are they in love, or is it just Lydia behaving bad? AltesUTC CH
    • Lydia calls Edgar over in a singsong way, she hugs him tenderly, whispers in his ear (when nobody else is around), and gently places a paper in his hand. The shots and angles are all traditionally indicative of romance or two people being in love. Additionally, the basic plot of the novel is that Lydia asks Edgar to do something very dangerous and against the rules, something she would only ask somebody she really trusts and whom she knows cares for her. On top of that, they both seem to have seen a future that involved a baby and the two of them in love. I'd say that's pretty good evidence for them being a couple. I'll ask Zach Craley for confirmation, though. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 10:46, 29 September 2009 (EDT)

Easter Egg

The Easter Egg for this graphic novel is one of the coolest ever! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 09:15, 29 September 2009 (EDT)

• That's Right! -- TanderixUTCR 16:42, 29 September 2009 (EDT)

isn't the knife target girl...

...lydia? I thought that's why it said, you must really trust me then? --mc_hammark 12:23, 29 September 2009 (EDT)

• Lydia has tattoos. The target girl doesn't. The person who says that she must trust him is not Edgar, it's a knife thrower who has no beard. The flashbacks make the story a little hard to follow, but it's all there: Lydia asks Edgar to do him a favor, to go to 138 Prospect. He does, and that's where he gets a package (from a knife thrower and his target girl). Then he runs back to the carnival with the package. As we learned from the video attached to Slow Burn, the package is a Sprint phone Lydia uses to call her daughter. It's contraband. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 12:58, 29 September 2009 (EDT)
• I thought that the panels with the knife thrower and target girl were younger edgar and lydia, edgar wouldn't have his beard an lydia wouldn't have tattoos back then. --mc_hammark 13:02, 29 September 2009 (EDT)
