And what kind of detective was Heyden???? He already knew from Andy’s childhood that he used to torture animals and even killed his (Heyden's) own dog. How did he not realize what kind of person Andy had become? And I think that could be the reason some of the neighborhood kids ended up pushing him onto the railway tracks because they saw him as a monster.
Despite knowing all that he still suggested going to Andy’s place alone just to talk. Isn’t it common sense that someone who starts by torturing animals can eventually become a danger to people as well??? What frustrated me even more was that he called Andy his “friend” right before letting his guard down (and leaving the house). Seriously how did this guy even qualify as a detective? I hate to say it but he practically walked himself into a painful death. The whole situation could have been avoided if he had used even a little common sense.
And for a moment I honestly thought he was one step ahead of Andy. I was hoping he had deliberately gone there alone as bait with the rest of his team secretly waiting nearby to catch Andy red handed. That would’ve made perfect sense for a detective. But nope. He really went there by himself, completely unprepared. ( -_-)
I agree but also in real life, people are a lottt less logical than it seems they should be. Especially police, once I was watching an urbex video and an old guy with a rifle put handcuffs on the YouTuber, forced him in his car and brought him to the police. This part wasn’t videoed, but the old guy told the cops if he saw someone else in the complex the YouTuber was exploring, he would shoot them. The police didn’t do anything, and a couple months later the old guy actually did shoot(I think it was with non lethal rounds? I can’t remember) 2 kids, they ended up okay and he only got 2 months probation

I think Andy was actually alive in the last panel and that it wasn’t just Bran hallucinating. If Andy, while lying on the railway tracks, was able to partially sit up and watch Bran having a seizure then he could just as easily have rolled off the tracks, gotten up and disappeared while the train was passing. That would also explain why there wasn’t any blood on the tracks afterward. Because of that I’m convinced it was Andy who came back and injected Bran at the end. It makes the ending even more disturbing because it suggests Bran can never escape Andy. And the final panel really gave me the feeling that the torture is going to start all over again.

That demon guy is so deeply in love with the uke. It feels like they represent the perfect yin and yang. The demon guy is the yin, the white side (gentle, soft natured, bringer of good luck and is the Top in the relationship) And the uke is the yang, the dark side ( someone who absorbs all the bad energy, was shown angry and guarded and is the bottom in their relationship) and in a strange way they complete and balance each other perfectly.
I think what makes their relationship so beautiful is that in this cruel and greedy world the demon guy found (or chose) someone who wasn’t driven by greed. Uke loved him without wanting anything major in return, without any major conditions or ulterior motives. Neither of them really had anyone else of their own (as parents were just insanely greedy) so that love gradually became everything to each other.
And that’s why he ended up killing others almost as if he wanted to prove that the uke is the only person who matters to him and that nothing else in this world is worth losing him over. It’s beautiful because the demon guy’s love for him feels so absolute. Maybe he genuinely loves him or maybe he also wants to keep him close so he can continue absorbing all the negative energy. But it’s tragic because the uke is now essentially trapped with him forever. It feels like the demon guy would do absolutely anything to make sure uke never leaves his side and continues loving him no matter what the cost is.
That’s what makes their relationship so haunting. Their love feels like both salvation and a prison. They found the one person who could complete them but in doing so they may have also become impossible to separate.
