  • Given that the waking candlestick can bend without fatiguing the metal of his form to the point of breaking, it’s safe to say there is an active component to the magic that is sustaining their forms.

    Given that the feather duster maid was seen to have her feathers forcibly removed, we can also assume they can be damaged and have parts removed.

    The question is if they retain their soul, the abstract idea of who they are, in the individual parts of their body or in the collection of the whole.

    Depending on the answer, he would either transfer his soul to the new part and assimilate it, fail to integrate the foreign and non-magical part, or grow a replacement part and force the foreign object out of his body.

    Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

    I think the simple answer is tone. Just as a silly moment can undercut drama and the serious tone, a serious page in an otherwise light-hearted comic is jarring.

    Imagine if Garfield and Jon had a moment where Jon confides in Garfield that he has cancer and he is worried it may be fatal; without some sort of punch line to lighten the moment it would feel sad, dark, and foreboding which goes against the tone set by the rest of the comic.

    Nah mate, the red lenses are reflecting red light, which is why they appear red. If they absorbed red light they would be absorbing incredible amounts of energy every second and heat up super fast. Because they reflect the energy the energy just goes back through the portals to the dimension that it came from. (Canonically.)
