History Tearjerker / InvaderZim

* In Issue 12, Membrane's hologram message laments that [[spoiler: the only members of the human race he was able to save were his family...except for "poor insane Dib" because Dib still wanted to fight Zim even if he had to do it alone. Even with that logic, it's obvious Membrane made no attempt to rescue his son for his own good, try to look for Dib if he was captured, or even assist Dib at a time where it was obvious Zim was the enemy and winning.]]

** Gaz also makes herself out to a hypocrite too. [[spoiler: She claims that Dib was selfish for trying to get her involved with his interests, but at the same time not only is she never willing to spare him any time but her obsession with video games is at such a violent level that even Dib's obsession with the paranormal can't compare.]] And another thing, [[spoiler: even when Dib chooses (after the fact) to try and do things that she enjoys, [[UngratefulBitch she STILL finds some reason to hurt him]] (beating Dib up because he happen to win a game)]]. In conclusion, Jhonen was absolutely right about this issue making issue 2 look tame to Dib.

** Taking a look at this issue from Dib's perspective makes the situation, while still the epitome of BlackComedy, heart wrenching. [[spoiler: Yes, Dib should have known by now that not only does Gaz have absolutely zero interest in his hobbies but is, in all accounts, an extremely vicious-minded individual with [[HairTriggerTemper an extremely short fuse]] [[EvilIsPetty if interrupted.]] Problem is..even if Dib acknowledges and accepts that he has ''absolutely no one'' outside of her or [[ParentalNeglect Membrane]] to turn to [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer given]] [[NoRespectGuy his]] [[TheUnfavorite circumstances]]. Apparently, he'll risk abandonment, ridicule, and horrific punishment trying to find support from his own family before trucking on completely alone.]]

* The ending of "Gaz: Taster of Pork". Ok, Dib might have deserved some punishment for using Gaz as a test rat for his spell drive (even though he did not do it out of ill will), but not only tricking Dib into believing she was still in danger when she obviously was not but also forcing him to clean up Shadow-Hog dookie ''with his head'' while he's crying for forgiveness? Not to mention all the horrific (and very graphic) death threats and beatings that Dib took from her while he was trying to help her? No wonder Gaz has a bit of a BaseBreaker status.

** Dib takeing the punishment of the Shadow-Hog to save his sister. He's genuinely crying at the end and feeling guilty...[[UngratefulBastard and yet Gaz ignores this completely and leaves him to his fate.]] Poor Dib, you need a good friend, and that excuse of a sister of yours needs [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown an absolutely vicious beating]] or [[CruelAndUnusualDeath worse.]]

** Then there's also the possibility of [[spoiler: Zim being trapped on the Gargantis Array forever after Dib denied him a ride home, especially after Zim even referred to Earth specifically as his home. Though to be fair, Zim did have it coming.]]

* Issue 5. At first, Membrane appears to be keeping up with the streak of being a decent parent to his kids... until it's revealed that [[spoiler: he built that alternative world machine for Gaz ''with complete knowledge'' that she was going to use it to torture Dib.]]
