Is Millie Immortal?

[simon]

THIS CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING. MILLIE IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A COMIC CHARACTER IN A FICTIONAL WEBCOMIC. MY FRIENDS, SPREAD THE WORD. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF A NEW AND WONDERFUL ERA. GO FORTH AND PREACH:

MILLIE IS GOD

Old news.

That must have been an... uncomfortable childbirth.

Actually I think he probably rose from the dead or something. And at the end of his life he'll crawl into his mother's womb and be absorbed.

Creepy...

More like slowly reverse-age into non-existence. You know, if such a lifeform like Locke can even exist at all.

Oh my, how many times have we had this discussion about aging, Millie and Locke on these forums? Apparently not enough.

It's a comic, the whole thing is using artistic license, it doesn't have to make sense. You'll get as much reason out of trying to prove that Picasso doesn't draw realistically.

I still prefer the "Mork and Mindy" method of reverse aging: an egg grows rapidly until a geezer hatches.

Seems like that would be even more uncomfortable, for both of them.

I can't really help but think of that Red Dwarf episode, 'Backwards'...

KRYTEN: Take war. War is a wonderful thing here! In fifty years time, the second world war will start -- backwards!
CAT: And that's a good thing?
KRYTEN: Millions of people will come to life. Hitler will retreat across Europe, liberate France and Poland, disband the Third Reich, and bog off back to Austria!
RIMMER: We're smash hits here! We'd be crazy to leave.
LISTER: RIMMER, we don't belong here! This place is crazy!
RIMMER: Crazy? Death, disease, famine -- there's none of that here.
KRYTEN: There's no crime! The first night we were here, a mugger jumped us and forced 50 pounds into my wallet at knifepoint!
LISTER: Okay, okay! But look at the flipside of the coin. It's not all good. Take someone like, say... St. Francis of Assissi. In this universe, he's the petty-minded little sadist who goes around maiming small animals! Or Santa Claus -- what a bastard!
RIMMER: Eh?
LISTER: He's the big fat git who sneaks down chimneys and steals all the kid's favorite toys!

Locke ages backwards, her mom ages forwards... so when Millie's middle-aged, will she reach an aging 'equilibrium' and just stop aging alltogether?

'cause an immortal Millie would me amazingly awesome and scary.

We've touched on this question before, and the answer is, really: EVERYONE in O&M is immortal, because DCS keeps them at their current age, so they'll never actually grow old, unless DCS wants them to.

There can be only one! I foresee a Millie versus Felicia finale.

Soo true so shush the immortality question

[Bocaj Claw]

But that's less fun.

[Arloest]

I still think Millie is an obnoxious Scandinavian black MEHTUL band that goes great with Benny Hill music.

[nickspoon]

Well of course Millie is immoral.

Oh, you said immortal...
