I'm currently in Easthampton, MA preparing for the New England Webcomics Weekend, so forgive me if comics are slow for a few days. It's going to be worth it, because the event will be great. If you live in the area - or plan to travel, if you're feeling adventurous - I hope I'll see you there!

Greg looks so fulfilled, there. And I also thought it was some kinda teen wolf thing.
Lee Taggart
everybody did
that was the joke

last panel made me lol, also loved eve's reaction to the "fruit of the loom" comment. silly hipsters
karobit
Countess Marks would probably have exploded if Marek had said he was the Jason Bateman Teen Wolf Mk. II
Nick
I feel the same way as Eve. I tend to regard hipsters with little to no fondness. And yet somehow I think my snobbery against hipster makes me pretty much a hipster myself.
Still, that old lady has a few screws loose either way.
Brian
This made me laugh after reading the comments the readers put after the first page of this story about if marik was Teen wolf or Werewolf MJ and that Eve was a froot of the loom character.
demosthenes
Me too! I'm curious to know if they planned that before or used the readers' comments

Holycrap
I just had a revelation about hipsters, and this comic has FINALLY helped me understand "what they are"!
I love this comic.
StJason
Please share. As is, Hipsters frighten and confuse me. Confused because I can't tell when they are just pretending to like crappy beer and terrible fashions. Frightening because I fear they are actually that way…
Bok
As I understand it, being a hipster means forgetting which of the two it was.
Kate Koala
The way I see it, hipsters are one of the two responses to not wanting to grow up. (The other one is, of course, the perpetual college student). Hipsters can keep that high school clique mentality, while sort of being part of the real world. They have the freedom to make immature choices, and they often do. If they weren't so shunned by the rest of society, I would LOVE to be a hipster. But I'm already a professional student. ^_^;;

NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO BE FROM SOMETHING YOU GUYS
This was pretty fucking awesome.
Steph
So wait, Hanna's Astro Boy didn't offend Countess Marks too?! Something's not right…
lamelama22
Hanna also hasn't been seen since the disco ball comic… >_>
AlmostLiterally
What's insincere about Astroboy?
wykstrad
You can always tell a hipster by how offended she gets when you call her a hipster 🙂
It's great how the costumes played a role in the story. Also, how Miss Marks elbow-checks Will in the last panel. I guess her hot-button issue is the cultural devaluation of irony!
zem
you can always tell a hipster by
zem
i had some text between angle brackets there but it's probably better this way
StJason
You can always tell a hipster 'bye'….
sue anne
XD XD Awesome.
FINIS
SHE HAS A GUN!!!
augh
Eve can't catch a break.
DaveO
Yeah I know, right? Even I thought she was one of the "Fruit of the Loom Guys" (boing!) when I saw her costume the first time ('cuz I'm ancient). Her frustration here is my delight.

I dressed up as a hipster on Halloween.
My friends all gave me the evil eye.
I'mAProudWeeabo
My friend was a hipster for halloween. I lol'd XD
Professional Mole
This is like a Scooby-Doo episode ending… except 100 times better and with more hipsters. =D
wykstrad
The Scooby-Doo shows could have used a lot more gruesome murders per episode. In fact, I'd be willing to invest money in an animated show with a Scooby-Doo-like cast that died horribly every episode, because that is something I believe many people would want to see.
Mayday
The cruelest cut of all to Ghost Eve
Nat
Every Halloween, the Great Pumpkin will RISE out of the pumpkin patch he deems the most sincere! Look at this pumpkin patch, just look around, nothing but sinceri- HEY IS THAT A REFERENCE? AUGH!!!
Nat
Oh, and by the way, I made and wore Eve's costume when I went trick or treating. I got 'Fruit of the Loom' too, but I was just like, 'Nope, just grapes. :-I'
lil
… i spent a bit of hallowen saying "everything is not from something else!" i also met a gal in a costume similar to eve's, but since was holding a hammer she was "grapes of wrath". yeah.
i kinda sense there's a 'doth protest too much' element with this hipster hate.
**adjusts american apparel glitter stretch pants**
elliott
haha ruined it!
you were 'grapes, from webcomic octopus pie'
Cisco
Ghost Eve's hair is awesome.
Dave
In the last couple years, hipster has ultimately come to mean "someone whose tastes I disagree with."
tris mccall
That was the funniest Octopus Pie yet. And I've read 'em all.
Andrew
The Avatar burn is wonderful, and Eve's reaction to Miss Marks' description of her costume killed me. Love that the Countess just plain old doesn't like hipsters; that almost puts me in her court by default even though she's offing characters I like. That says something. Not sure what, but something.
Jasmine P.
This page made me smile, as soon as I saw it, a big cheeky grin.
I love mystery stories, so it was the reveal.
Hunter S. Thompson
What about Astrohannah?
Hamlet
So, I go to Hampshire College (I'm soo excited for Webcomics Weekend!!), and so not only are me and my friends surrounded by hipsters, and probably hipsters ourselves, but we also have recurring intellectual debates over what it means to be hipster, the implications of mainstream hipster-dom, and, of course "Evan, you are such a friggin hipster!" The current question of interest: does dressing up as a hipster *ironically* for halloween then turn you into a hipster? Is this a paradox?
Kazz
I saw a girl dressed up as grapes on Halloween and my immediate thought was "EVE" rather than grapes or Fruit of the Loom. Does that make me… a hipster? D:
Dragonair
What the hell was Will dressed as then? I thought he was dressed like a hipster!!
Joe
Will was Lt. Aldo Rayne, Brad Pitt's character in Inglourious Basterds.
NextChamp
HIPSTERS!!!
Thank you for having the same hatred in them as I do.
MerchManDan
Well, OF COURSE the killer is the owner of the "haunted" house. I am such a moron. *shame*
krisnaaa
Eve's hair is sooo cute<333
and omg lol fruit of the loom xD
poor greg, he takes insults into compliments haha
Bok
To nerds, hipster is a step up.
AlmostLiterally
A. I am loving the Teen Wolf – Michael Jackson bit there at the end. I didn't realize he wasn't Teen Wolf until I saw the 'M'.
2. Greg's expression made my day.
3. The Avatar burn made my week.
4. Buh. Hipster talk. To me, people who are counter counter-culture are just as annoying as the counter-culture people.
AlmostLiterally
That first one should be a 1. Either my English is corrupting my math or my math is corrupting my English.
AsinineAxioms
Oh wow. Will's eyes in the first panel…
THE FIRE.
Magoogle
According to Google, "hipster," is defined as:
A mid coverage panty, which rests lower on the hip than a brief. the rise is shorter, so the waistline of the hipster is well below the navel. A hipster is a perfect solution for wearing under low cut jeans.
That is why Eve is dead.
Leith
Please oh please let Eve enter her Ultimate Form to answer these insults to her honour.
Also Marek.
EmarAndZeb
This comic is kind of an awesome commentary on the whole "hipster vs. hipster backlash" thing, 'cause with the exception of Greg, she's either misidentified the costumes of her victims (Eve, Sean, and Marek when she mistakenly spared him), or misconstrued their reasons for wearing them (Marigold apparently LIKES that movie you guys!). So you know, next time you see that skinny beardo with the tight pants and the horn-rim glasses drinking a PBR at a show, don't tear into his jugular with a broken bottle on impulse. Because maybe he enjoys that stuff for, like, I don't know… sentimental reasons.
This murderous hag in the bearsuit has taught us all.
kurtismcgurtis
you're a beacon of reason in the dark ocean of the internet.
kurtismcgurtis
wait, disco duck? i thought puget sean was supposed to be finn from adventure time with finn and jake.
SecretlyASuperhero
he is, but the countess chick is referring to how sean is a tv character and yet duznt even own a tv, or have cable to watch adventuretime so ya 🙂
kurtismcgutis
*facepalm* now i gets it.
thanks. how freakin' sweet is adventure time btw?
SecretlyASuperhero
its radical!
mathematical!
algebraic!
and lumping righteous!
ir we share the same sense of humor that is
SecretlyASuperhero
*if…not "ir". wtf is "ir"??!
kurtismcgurtis
we totes do, adventure time has completely ruined my vocabulary in the greatest way. example, i just said "totes".
hurg
the one thing hipsters and non-hipsters love to talk about and agree upon is probably how much they hate hipsters.
Beyla
Hating hipsters is played out. Have a Tecate Light and worry bout other things.
hurg
Seeing how I was saying exactly the same thing you were, I'm surprised why you even bothered with these comments anyway? Since your mind is obviously worrying about more important, wordly things. When being snarky, you probably shouldn't also be hypocritical.
Damien Walder
I think the moment I start identifying people I know in categories that passive-aggressive, I may as well go back to high school.
It's fine in a comic, of course – LMHAO.
Meeka
HAHA
fucking hipsters
also I also totally guessed marek's costume wrong. I thought he was teen wolf too! oh well i guess I'm an old person
spade
this lady better darn well die in an ironic way thats all i'm sayin ..
banana peel? arcade fire mosh pit trampling? piano falling out of the sky?
hrmn ..
Fish
I thought he was MJ wolf!!
Poor Eve she shouldn't have died…
Flender
"Oh hey Teen Wolf, we were just talking about you!"
"Course you was bitch I'm motherfucking Teen Wolf!"
Andrew
Nostalgia might be one of the worst reasons to like or support anything.
Dead Eve's hair looks like sex hair. Especially in the last panel of #409.
Winter
I love how Greg is soooo happy that he is cool enough to be called a hipster.
Hipster pride! luhlz
Winter
btw, Countess Marks is a huge fucking hipster.
notmarkflynn
I love how Will is way more pissed off about his shitty party than his dead friends. Not really the best host mentality.
AlmostLiterally
You know, I kinda hope Marek and Hanna die. I want to see ghost them. The ghost OP cast is insanely cuter than living OP cast.
