On Page 40, Wanda, Parson and Stanley remind me of a sitcom mom/son/stepdad dynamic. Read the first two panels again, replacing "perfect warlord" with "perfect son" and replacing "Overlord" with "husband". It totally works!
Wait...now I'm not sure why I posted that in this thread. It doesn't really fit a Childworld reading, does it? I must've been looking at it more general terms of family dynamics.
