Didn't Clairen die in Book 0?
Starting here and over the next two pages, it's difficult to see how Clairen can have survived being turned into a pile of ashes...
But was she turned into a pile of ashes?

As literally every character said in that one ep of Psych, no body no crime.

Plus, I don't know if you read the Buffy comics, but the exact same thing was recently done to one of the characters, engulfed in flames, only see a dark shape within the flames, and then nothing left but a pile of ashes. When actually they hadn't been hurt at all, just made temporarily invisible.

I too thought it was Mary at first, but now I'm leaning towards Clairen.

I mean looking at what we see of this character, the smirk, the lip bite, the slightly upturned drawn now, all aspects of Clairen's design. Plus there's the fact that we only get shown one arm, the one that we know Clairen still has. Sure she probably would of regrown the other by now, I'm just saying, the only time we're shown one of this characters arms it's the one Clairen didn't lose.

Plus this story has all been so centralized on Bern's past in Marvallo, so it wouldn't make much sense for it to be Mary. Plus she doesn't have the scars.

Nothing else happened besides what it said. The abruptness isn't to conceal some mystery event to be brought up later, the Arena part of the story is just over, Bern finally accepted the lesson this entire arc has been trying to drill into her head. So there was no reason to continue dragging it on.

Oh yeah, going by her comment in the last panel The Warden is so gonna have Polly resurrected and have him pay the marks. Oh I would so so love if the chapter ending with the new administrator reciting the same speech he did to Bern & Polly when they first arrived.

Here's hoping Bern doesn't do something stupid like refuse to let the Warden do it and say she'll pay the marks her self because of nobel bullshit. It won't happen I'm sure, but Bern has done stupid things in the past that has me worry.

WOW. Okay Polly better damn well get better, cause if that guy says she's going to die or some shit then I'm just done with this comic.

Any other death whatever, but this would basically be the same lesbian takes a bullet for the one they love bullshit every tv show in the world seems to pull, and it would seriously disappoint me if Flipside did the same.
Looks like Brion is a fan of "The 100" and also "Once Upon a Time" resolution for lesbian characters this year ;)

Shame to see the best character in the comic so far which really grow on me much more than May or, blasphemy even Bern at some point, ended her life with such fate.

You would think that arena masters would not finish their profitable warriors in such way, but it really looks that there are no second chances for them after the prisoners refuse their promotion.

And we should remember that the poison was aimed at Bern not Polly, but from the guy's thoughts it looked he just got orders to poison one of them to break up the duo and make other suffer.
Kinda shitty deal for Polly, reunite with your life's love, then sacrifice your freedom for her, finally sell your body for her sake and now give up the life like previous deeds weren't enough...
Granted she heard that Bern loved her, she even got sex with her, but still the outcome is bad cause she never had a chance with May since May is the MC.

I still have some hope that this will turn into some poison which just slows down the heart rate and later could be reverted, but the chances are slim.
And if this is truly the end for Polly then at least I hope this will change Bern moralityand give her enough hardened resolve to kill all the arena masters and Warden in cold blood for what they did to her, semi-Gladiator movie style.
Well fuck him then, and no I'm not censoring that for once.
I mean what? Has Bury Your Gays become popular now? Is that what everyones jumping to do? See how many people they can piss off compared to others?
Since the first one in 1976, 160 lesbian and bisexual woman have been killed off on tv shows.
And believe it or now, it's even worse then it sounds, because 98 of those deaths, 98 of those characters killed. Took place in the past 5 and a half years. Yeah.
2010-2012 8 died each year, 2013-2014 16 died each year, and then in 2015 23 died.
At this point 2016 is at a whopping 19. And the years only half over.
Just saying, maybe JRoth isn't the type of writer you should model yourself after.

Well yeah, now. But who knows how things'll be when this is all over. She may not be willing to lose either of them again.

Oh! Oh! Like Scandal, Liana and Kay in DC comics!

Y'know, I could be wrong, but I'm not really sure Bern has anything to worry about here, I'm pretty sure May would be open to polygamy.

Welp, if anyone had any doubts still, I think it's pretty clear after that first panel that May definitely has some masochistic tendencies.

You can argue that while this is a mask, this doesn't mean that it's "fake" Maytag. Think about it this way. Suppose you like to read at home. You also like to go out with your friends and do stuff. We could say that one of these is a fake you. Or we can simply decide that these are different sides of you. Since most people don't show everything about themselves, even to close friends.

In May's case, this is a little different. She has a layered personality. Rather than different sides of her, it's more like a series of concentric circles.

(1) May's true self, something that none of us have likely seen (which would probably turn out to be a scared and/or emotional mess)
(2) May's deadpan self
(3) May's dual persona

While you could say #3 is a false personality, this doesn't add up. She had to build this personality from somewhere. If her true self were also deadpan, there would be no reason for #2 (it would be redundant). This means that #1 has emotions, but possibly needs the mask as a defense mechanism for dealing with pain, or because her real self was suppressed early on because it was odd/unruly/damaged/etc. Since neither #3 (not in character with either Jester personality, or the shy Maytag) nor #2 (not deadpan enough) would have said that loud "SHUT UP!" to the creepy maid girl, I think we got a peek at the Maytag behind the masks.
I dunno about Scared. Emotional Mess maybe, but if that is who we're gonna be seeing next page, the whole feet up, ankles crossed posture kinda nixes out the possibility of Scared. You aren't usually so relaxed when filled with fear.

Unless you meant scared as in Scar and not Scare. I can never tell with that one.

Hmm, does anyone else wonder if the whole feet up in the last panel, combinded with May's I wonder in the first means we may be seeing the Real Maytag next page. I certainly hope so. :3

Hmm... Not sure how to feel about this. On the one hand it's sick, I mean c'mon. On the other hand though, it's better then being a slave to that fat guy for 19 more days. Plus y'know, not like it's something they both wanted at one time, still, sick. Can't say I wouldn't like to see what would happen if they got together like that though. If I'm being honest, as much as I love May and Bern's sweet scenes, they never really made much sense to me. Then again, that's usually the most lasting kinds. Who knows.

Damn you flipside! I've been hating on Bern and how pathetic she's been this Coliseum arm for what seems like forever and then you give us that ultra bad ass middle panel and make me fall in love again! Damn it!

Oh my god!! Enough trying to dissect the science behind the last attack! This is a world where a woman heals from eating people, another woman is permanently invisible and tiny microscopic machines fill the entire planet creating magic.

So do you really think our worlds physics apply to theirs? lol

So, am I the only one who wonders if the glowing the swords are doing right now isn't just an after effect of the cancellation, but actually a secondary ability where they absorb the power of the last weapon it blocked temporarily. Cause that would be so freaking awesome.

Hmm... Can anyone remind me what Option A was again?

This whole situation is so just ugh to me that I don't even remember.

Only thing I gotta say, if Bern doesn't give me a reason to play Number One by Hazel Fernandes during this fight I will be done with her.

Well, for now anyway, I'll probably like her again one day.

Ok, ok ok ok. Am I the only one who's mind this crossed? What if Bern isn't looking all depressed and broken there because she believes she's weak and will lose, but because she realizes what she's gonna have to do to win this and is ready to do it, but at the same time is depressed over that fact.

Y'know, I really hope this fight goes well. And something good comes out of it, cause as much as I love this comic and it's characters, this Coliseum arc really has me down on Bern. She always seemed so great, but now, starting back when she refused to do the ranking ceremony, she's just pathetic.

Ok, so I have a theory on what's going on here, though forgive me if there was something revealed in a previous chapter that negates me theory, I guess I don't remember if there is. But if not, my theory is, what if Lehm, isn't the Thin Man that tortured and changed Bloody Mary and did that thing to Susperia.

I mean yes, Lehm is definitely the real Thin Man, but what if there's an imposter out there? Maybe even someone who once worked with Lehm. I mean, looking at those women with Lehm, I'm guessing they've been improved in some way, but they don't look totally monstrous, or cannibalish like Mary and Susperia.

So, maybe Lehm actually only improves people who want it and does it without torture, but whoever changed Mary and Susperia is just claiming to be the real Thin Man.

And anyway, Lehm has brought Maytag here, because he feels that whoever this person is, unless he knows who it is, is in his eyes, ruining his reputation, and took Maytag as the only way he could ask for her help in stopping this imposter.

I mean who knows, in a few pages we might find out I'm completely wrong, but this is just what I feel is going to happen at the moment.
