El Goonish Shive X: Please Don't Feel Bad

[Reboot]

Re: Hope #42, feels like panels 2 & 4 are playing up the Susan/Hope resemblance to go with them both being here more-or-less exclusively to play with Sarah.

Thinking more about this, Susan might be the best one of Pandora's Family for Hope to first (properly) engage with from her perspective. Pandora was a mother to Adrian, a mother *figure* to Tedd, and a potential grandmother to Diane & Noah; while Diane freaked out and ran away at the end of the mall incident. The problem with Grace is that she's a scary extrovert, which is the opposite of Hope right now. Diane tends towards that too, but not quite to the same way/extent.

Meanwhile, Susan is a self-described "introverted nut" who held herself together at the mall after Pandora's "death" while Diane & Adrian were losing their heads, barely knew Pandora and is a very distant relation. She might actually be who Hope needs most right now to move past family panic.
