8C Despite their skills and determination, they couldn’t overcome the pure power of poppy controlled minions. (Nooooooo, Jinjur ;o; Please don’t be gone!) Not to mention, the semi lifeless look on the face of the contolled people and their goggles makes it more eerie and sad.
I swear to good that Namesake made me wary of poppies. Now, I’ll never be able to look at a poppy without thinking that it’s going to turn me into a zombie.
1) Well, that could have gone better.
2) As I have always said, FIRE. FIRE solves most problems.
3) Weedwhackers! Why didn’t they bring weedwhackers?
4) THOOOM. They could have used some THOOM. And BLAM. Maybe Warrick can hire Tagon’s Toughs. That would certainly change things.
I think fire has the same problems here that Agha talked about when Emma suggested it a while back: namely, that you could not avoid killing and/or seriously injuring the people being controlled by the poppies (who are innocent victims, like Anlise).
A more adorable solution: an army of guinea pigs! They’ll eat practically anything vegetable, and my pet guinea pig was better than a garbage disposal for getting rid of excess vegetables.
Goats would work, too. Alternately, I’ve been wondering when we’re going to see the Queen of the Field Mice and her legions (on one hand, too small to eat their way through the poppies, OTOH, possibly also too small for poppies to infiltrate their brains).
I agree, fire… preferably from flamethrowers. Better yet a B-29 carpet bombing run with Agent Orange. Best: “Nuke it from Orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.”
Actually it was C-130s, C-119s and other, smaller, aircraft that sprayed Agent Orange. B-52s weren’t suitable for the job. (Too fast and couldn’t safely fly at the low altitude necessary to effectively put it into the heavier foliage.)
Oh…my…gosh.
Poor Jinjur! I hope she’ll be alright!

Please, don’t let the resistant be turned, too.
NOOOO!!!! Not Jinjur! I hope she’ll be alright and not poppified. Warrick get there soon! And bring Emma! Jinjur has to be ok.
superior action sequence.
This is when a few gallons of Roundup® herbicide would come in handy…
Like I said in the last page: resistance is futile.
I guess the army has been overwhelmed by the sheer amount of targets.

I ment B-52 (B-29s are WW2, B-52s were Vietnam era… where Agent Orange was used).
Actually it was C-130s, C-119s and other, smaller, aircraft that sprayed Agent Orange. B-52s weren’t suitable for the job. (Too fast and couldn’t safely fly at the low altitude necessary to effectively put it into the heavier foliage.)
You’re right and it makes sense. Though I suppose you could load incindary bombs and use the B52s to take out very large swaths.
Locusts. A horde of locusts would be good right about now.
YES.
I summon Pac-Man!
Woah.
Oh, hell…
Noooo! Jinjur!
Jinjur may have lost this fight but she gained a lotta points in my book for fighting it.
