This is where you are all wrong. The first death is the good southern gentleman Colonel Sassacre.
How can you forget the death of the most ironically named character in the comic?

Despite his name, he certainly was not.

Alas, poor safe. At least he is now in the wonderful land of Vaulthalla.

Also, to rarborman, Homestuck is best described as what would happen if you took pure, uncut Awesome, then cut it with equal parts Humor and Nightmare Fuel, then ground it up and sacrificed it to the God of Awesomeness, and then took the gift he gave you and used it to kill a bronze colossus. I lost track of my metaphor in there somewhere, but suffice to say, you should read it. You probably won't regret it unless you get far too invested in it like Breadbocks did.

I mean in-universe timeline. O'l Safe wasn't even smelted yet.

Oh snap, Qmarx, taken out by the new reader. How does that feel? You want some ice for that burn?

Jade once again proves to be smarter than she looks.  And vulgar.  It's not that unique of an idea, since the password is basically just drilling for bracketed information like Kanaya and Rose were doing before.  But it's much more direct and funny.  I can only imagine what her passwords are going to be like.

I just want to take a moment to offer Serious Props to everyone who is able to keep all this straight. I've read through every single page of this comic, some parts more than once, and I still can never keep track of more than a couple of the most important characters. As for the plot, It's just running around my head in tight, fast circles, spinning me into a dizziness from which I will never recover. I'm pretty sure I'd have to go all the way back through the entire comic with a notebook and some flowcharts and graphs in order to have any idea what's going on right now. And by the time I finished with that, there'd be another ten thousand pages to catch up on...

Even still, it's pretty awesome. I showed some of the flashes to a friend who'd never even heard of the comic and although he had no idea what was going on, he was well aware that he was watching something exceptionally awesome. So I guess I don't really *have* to understand everything that's going on.

I agree Sappho, I just got done reading the entire thing from the start and as soon as I hit certain parts my head went WTF am I reading, but I've got it worked out to the point that I can grasp the plot and story of the characters individually but it is so damn convoluted that it hurts, and makes me laugh.

I tend to just read the story and go along with it, ignoring anything I don't understand. Any gaps in my understanding are easily filled by other readers.

I feel like I only read updates so I don't get left behind, even though it's not like I actually make discussion with anything that happens.
