The gamekeeper is loathsome but he sort of had a point.

Although the Crossed child in the cold freezing to death was a good touch. It reminded me of a rattlesnake. The kid was in dire straits, in rags and wounded. Probably had frostbite. And still could get the energy to attack. It's amazing, in a way.

The Gameskeeper...I have a feeling he's going to step too far, be too ruthless, and it will snap back at him. Sounding the alarm for the Crossed at the home was not a smart play. A lot more Crossed cound have swarmed the area and the group could have been found out. I think the Gameskeeper has proven himself too volatile. He knocked out the Pakistani kid to draw everyone out of the home. What if a Crossed had come across the boy, knocked out? The GK made him helpless. He needs to go. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342363#Comment_342363 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342363#Comment_342363 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 07:28:56 -0700 MrMonk http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342367#Comment_342367 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342367#Comment_342367 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 07:55:11 -0700 longtimelurker

It's sort of crazy to have a human that I find more repulsive in this story then the crossed.

And the "patient zero" could easily be a localized patient zero.

We shall see!

Also, the crossing doesn't invert people so much as simply bring out the worst in them. Taking away all the little inhibitions that say "raping someone through the ear is wrong".

And also, yes. Crossed GroundsGamekeeper Willy is hella scary. Horsecock ain't got nothin' on him. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342390#Comment_342390 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342390#Comment_342390 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 12:45:57 -0700 Wood think I remember that Garth Ennis said that there would be no explanation in the original Crossed comics because it was not that kind of story. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342406#Comment_342406 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342406#Comment_342406 Fri, 19 Oct 2012 20:15:45 -0700 Berserker
It looked a lot like the plussers were watching it in the first chapter, so it stands to reason that the sortie might come 'home' to a smoking hole in the dirt. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342434#Comment_342434 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342434#Comment_342434 Sat, 20 Oct 2012 18:27:08 -0700 fenrir07 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342444#Comment_342444 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342444#Comment_342444 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 07:59:26 -0700 BadBeast
Whoever it was on the boat, I don't think we've seen the last of them, simply because of the "X" cross on the woman's face. Why was her cross different? It must be significant, because so far, the story's attention to detail has been pretty tight. And something must have happened between Shaky and the rest of the Gamekeeper's group, because none of them made it to Cava with him.
And the only thought was "I miss Theresa".

She's gone bad. I think, but not crossed. Mad, or bad enough for the rest of the crossed to give her a wide enough berth to avoid getting infected. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342447#Comment_342447 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342447#Comment_342447 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 10:19:50 -0700 No Fear Oh maybe someone could make a list of things we actually know about the crossed, in general, as seen in all the comics not just WYWH. Look forward to next weeks episode. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342448#Comment_342448 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342448#Comment_342448 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 10:36:07 -0700 BadBeast http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342451#Comment_342451 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342451#Comment_342451 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 11:46:07 -0700 BadBeast As for your list No Fear, the crossed seem to become fixated on tasks. For most of them, the task seems to be sexual gratification or / and violence. But for the "supercrossed", like Ma Pratt, HorseCock, or Theresa, it seems they fixate on those they were close to, who never got crossed. In HorseCock's case, it's poor blind Kelly. Ma Pratt hunts down her Daughters.

So I'm thinking Shaky and Theresa must have been bumping uglies. I'll hazard a guess that the Gamekeeper puts the rape to Theresa, and when Shaky catches him in the act, he goes all "White Knight" and slots him. Then Theresa's long suppressed Catholic "fuck me" kicks in, and she gets a wide on for Shaky. Who bottles it, and spurns her because he's such an emotional cripple. So . . . . . . . and this is just speculation, Sister Theresa fucks everyone else in the GK Clan to death. I think she possibly bumps into Psycho Harold , who crosses her with some tit soup made from Lori's infected funbag. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342452#Comment_342452 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342452#Comment_342452 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 12:12:03 -0700 BadBeast http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342458#Comment_342458 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342458#Comment_342458 Sun, 21 Oct 2012 15:36:52 -0700 Greasemonkey http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342485#Comment_342485 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342485#Comment_342485 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 00:16:55 -0700 Horrible Warning Si http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342497#Comment_342497 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342497#Comment_342497 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 04:22:03 -0700 Purple Wyrm
The medallions are British army dog tags. The crucified guys are soldier boys (which presumably explains what the local Crossed were doing with mortars and grenades). ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342500#Comment_342500 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342500#Comment_342500 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 04:58:20 -0700 stanandcindy
It doesn't really matter because the scenario is all about exploring the nature of evil / morality. The 'joke' is that the Crossed are mere cyphers. They cannot possibly be evil because they are in the grip of a horrible illness. They have no 'mens rea'. It's how the survivors cope with the desperate situations they find themselves in that makes this series so interesting. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342502#Comment_342502 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342502#Comment_342502 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 05:34:57 -0700 No Fear http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342503#Comment_342503 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342503#Comment_342503 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 06:26:11 -0700 stanandcindy
To some extent, yes, it does make them worse. However, the extreme situations they find themselves in can provide a form of 'defence'. For example in the first arc Stan & Cindy kill the cannibal children. Was this 'evil'? It's debatable. That's an really interesting moment because it asks the question 'what is evil'? On the other hand the Game Keeper's shameless sexual exploitation of Agnes is clearly transgressive. ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342508#Comment_342508 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342508#Comment_342508 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 08:26:21 -0700 flecky http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342519#Comment_342519 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342519#Comment_342519 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 10:45:57 -0700 No Fear Im really looking forward to finding out the eventual fate of GK and what happened to Theresa.

Best of luck with your psychological studies, scientific analysis, and scholarly research on Crossed history. But, frankly, it seems like a lot more fun to just go along for the ride!

And a hell of a ride it's been already (thanks Si!). Can't wait to find out what's up with Theresa and her Xed face. Also curious to see just how far Shaky has gone (and will go) given his conclusion that taking advantage is the key to survival! ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342525#Comment_342525 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342525#Comment_342525 Mon, 22 Oct 2012 11:31:33 -0700 No Fear http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342586#Comment_342586 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342586#Comment_342586 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 13:25:56 -0700 No Fear http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342592#Comment_342592 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342592#Comment_342592 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 15:59:47 -0700 twentythoughts http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342628#Comment_342628 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342628#Comment_342628 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 10:01:54 -0700 Ben Gwalchmai

Will be picking up WYWH and Crossed Badlands on Amazon when Badlands comes out on Nov. 6. Want to get them both at the same time so I don't have to order twice. Would actually prefer to wait until Crossed TP 5 comes out as well and get 3 at the same time, but that one's not coming until next fucking year. You need to do your part and light a fire under somebody's ass, man.

And question...

I am very excited to see that Garth Ennis is doing live action Crossed. Are you or Lapham going to be submitting any episode ideas,or is this a Ennis beast all the way through? ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342706#Comment_342706 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342706#Comment_342706 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 19:25:54 -0700 Hayama http://www.crossedcomic.com/webcomic/interlude-8/ ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342707#Comment_342707 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342707#Comment_342707 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 20:37:34 -0700 stevej http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342711#Comment_342711 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342711#Comment_342711 Thu, 25 Oct 2012 23:32:33 -0700 BadBeast http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342733#Comment_342733 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=10873&Focus=342733#Comment_342733 Fri, 26 Oct 2012 09:59:24 -0700 PsikoShooter BadBeast... i think you are right about where the pipes will end... but i hope its not soon... you have to admit jackson is kinda badass... nuts... but still..

and i was looking about what Dethklok said about the live action...and it seems tobe just Ennis the one running the project... but i foun a little mor things...

"Ennis also announced he will be returning to writing Crossed: Badlands with issue 25. “The Fatal Englishman” will run 4 issues and feature a small military unit who decide it is time to strike back at the Crossed. This arc will tie in to issue 50, which Christensen refers to “Patient Zero,” spotlighting when the outbreak initially started."

So... we maybe have a look of how the infection started... ]]>
