    Yeah, if the woman is lucky.

    But the woman in this comic doesn’t look like she’s rolling in spare money to replace a buck that still mostly works.

    (Having to spend time to carry water on a walking path isn’t usually a signal of extravagant wealth.)

    She probably threatens the bucket with replacement daily, though.


  • more spoiler talk for The Girl With All the Gifts

    Yep! So at first humans don’t think the zombies have any higher brain function, since the zombies cannot have any higher brain function when they smell a human.

    Eventually humans figure out that hiding their scent can provide them some protection. Then they realize they’ve been killing sentient people when defending themselves against the zombies.

    There’s a whole plotline in between where humans think it’s just a few zombies that are sentient, including the title character - “the Girl with All the Gifts”.

    Spoiler for the big twist in The Girl With All the Gifts

    The Zombies turn out to be able to reason (whenever they don’t smell prey) and are able to reproduce to sustain their own numbers.

    This turns the story into a humans vs neanderthals, or homo-sapiens vs homo-superior, kind of situation.
