    Brave. Probably stupid, but brave. I certainly wouldn’t have the nerve to tell off a mentally/emotionally unstable omnipotent jackass. What’s kind of funny is that he looks almost… not psychopathic in the third panel. Sincere, even. I’m sure he is, in his own mind. Too bad is own mind is a twisted maze of extravagant hyperbole. What I mean to say is, the boy’s just downright insane.

    Anyway, it’s nice to see what the two gals are up to, though it seems like they are either going to become either distressed damsels or deceased damsels. As they lack any known powers. Personally, I don’t foresee any deus ex Jacks or Facepunchers, but we’ll see.

    Huh, well it is a nice change of pace from homicidal rage I suppose. Seems he is actually trying to prove he is the better man rather than killing off anyone he sees as a threat.

    But alas, he’s still missing the point.

    Love the final panel expression. To use tired old phrase ” This s@!* just got real.”

    You know, Hackers could actually do some freakin good for the world if they stopped being pompous jerks or emotionally unstable individuals. They’d revolutionize the construction industry, reinvent the transportation department, and probably solve world hunger. But alas, they use their powers to hit on girls.

    Even more incredibly, it’s Cindy that’s telling Craig off.

    She’s usually the first one to start running in these kinds of situations.

    @Neithan Diniem: I think Gavin summed it up pretty well when he was talking with Crystal.

    Sure, they could – but they don’t, because they’re all just children, literally or at heart.

    That could have gone worse. At least he didn’t kill anyone.

    Thanks for a great year of Fancy Adventures, Mr Man! I can’t wait to see where 2011 takes it.

  8. SovietCommissar

    Also!

    @ Neithan Diniem

    Altruism only goes so far, and “absolute power corrupts absolutely” – here it’s not “absolute” with the exception of Gavin, and even then only maybe, but all the same, being a hacker gives you huge advantages you’re bound to want to use for yourself.

    @SovietCommissar
    the Actonian Thesis (correct me if i spelled it wrong)
    “Power Corrupts, But Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely.”
    The problem with the kids hacking abilities is that they almost hav absolute control and every now and then they move forward and advance into having absolute control.

    O,
    and great year Jamie thanks for all the good times cant wait for the Christmas Shark next year 😀

    “I made you a castle,
    you know’cause i felt like it,
    I can do that.”

    >.> this guy scares me.

  11. David

    Oh Craig, you can’t go around making people castles.
    “You have to treat her like a person THEN a princess, then a goddess, then a person again.”

  12. Swot

    I think a giant castle rising out of the ground is very… noticeable, and that our three favorite factions are going to come swarming in again.

  13. Emilio

    I was expecting Craig to, ahem, “flip a sh*t” and go after Jack, provoking a backlash from Gavin and the other hackers. But he actually seem to be trying the nice person, if in the wrong manner.
    Awesome year Jamie! I found this comic around March and I’ve been following it ever since. I’ll probably still be following next March and the March after that and likely the March after that.

  14. grayfoxpianist

    Fantastic shading on Craig’s face in the last panel, Jamie. Really brings out his emotion of “I’m gonna fuck you up now”
    Happy New Year, mate! Looking forward to another fancy year.

  15. arch angel

    Just think, there won’t be any more comics untill next year.

  16. Exa

    I realize that this is a little off topic, but I think that everyone should go and watch this year’s Doctor Who Christmas Special on account of

    IT ACTUALLY HAS A CHRISTMAS SHARK.

    I SHIT YOU NOT, AN HONEST-TO-GOD FLYING CHRISTMAS SHARK PULLING A SLEIGH.

  17. taltamir

    how many people were in those houses that he made into a castle? how many of them are injured or dead?

  18. Merks

    Craig it’s time to bring out the big guns and start singing “A whole new world”. It’s the only way to seal the deal
