Broodhollow

theeere it is!

Someone in the comments raised a good point: How much information is lost when one of the Brigade dies?

Overcast, with scattered visions of doom

Umm.

...you okay there, Zane?

I think it's safe to say no, no he is not.

It isn't a Madness Mantra, exactly, but it's pretty close...

The last panel needs to be a wallpaper. Just look at how unsettlingly cute it is.

And Mercy's batbox. :3

Today - ghosts! Tomorrow - THE WORLD!

I don't get what this all is building up to. Seems too random at this moment.

On another note, it is laying eggs... BURN THE HOUSE!

It is random, the author hit some stress related writers block and is doing bite sized stories to help.

I got my younger sister Book 1 for Christmas, and read Camera before it was published here. Still creepy.

Bump.

Book III will be resuming soon... which sadly means no more Cadavre or Local 58 for a while probably. Such is death.

Watch this space.

IT'S BACK

...apparently we're starting Book 3 over again?

Small adorable changes in the timeline

Mercy is cutest mascot fight me universe

You know what just occurred to me? Wadsworth had a life outside Broodhollow. Not much of a life, but he owed rent and had bills to pay. And sure, part of the reason he came to Broodhollow is to claim an inheritance and deal with his unpaid bills, so it's probable that he just took care of it all offscreen. But there's a real possibility that he forgot the specifics of his life outside, meaning that someone outside Broodhollow may be looking for Wadsworth.

The best part is, anyone who comes looking for Wadsworth in Broodhollow will then be in Broodhollow themselves, and probably unable to escape under their own power.

That's what I'm wondering about. I was re-reading the archives, and I noticed that Novacek the writer dies right after he declares he's leaving Broodhollow. And that Mrs. Loucks lost her parents to a car accident when they were traveling outside of Broodhollow. So, maybe whatever's at the bottom of the town is targeting people who could break the Masquerade? But I think it's a mistake to think of it as a fully conscious and scheming Lucifer-type.

And to people visiting Night Vale... congratulations! You now live in Night Vale!

I mean, Broodhollow itself seems to do that to people. I'm sure more people would try to leave if they didn't just forget the terrible things that happen - I very much doubt Wadsworth is the only one who's been affected by all this stuff, and that's just major things like the monster that killed Maris and the evil spirit from Book 1. The Ladies' Club knows enough to guard against the worst of the effects and I expect the men's secret society does too, but ordinary citizens must experience, and then block out, a lot of horrifying things over the course of an average lifetime.

It's been a while, but I feel I should mention that the comic is updating again. Chapter three has started over again everything is on fire. There's also a Patreon linked on the site, where you only pay when the comic is updated.

Did someone update the character sheet with new names?

Oh my god, I thought I was seeing things when I saw this on my watchlist. Are we starting chapter 3 over yet again?

Yep. I don't mind too much, since I can barely remember what the previous two iterations were about.

I don't know if this was posted way back: Ichor Falls, Broodhollow's sister city. You can see earlier incarnations of what shows up in the comic: Harker, Maddie, the camera... even the woods get expanded on.

So, Broodhollow just updated a bunch.
