    Fundunked by Passive Aggressive

    Passive Aggressive is actually two books. Some stores received the story "Passive" and others received the story "Aggressive", though the two versions have the same cover. Only the interior is different.I have some thoughts to share about this book. I have a big question: does the order we read these books color our views of these books? I read Passive first, and now I don't have any way to go back in time and read Aggressive first.Or do I?Also, in my previous episode, I had a called shot about Passive Aggressive, that it would be the key to the redemption program that the buttons have alluded to. I was partly correct, that there was something up with this book, and a big hidden secret. I have an updated Called Shot now, and it is worse. So, so, so much worse.Timecodes:01:15 - FunDunked08:00 - Two books, not one14:57 - Passive Aggressive22:24 - Magic Intervention24:03 - Aggressive Passive29:35 - The Magic Ends33:45 - WARNING36:06 - Updated Called ShotOne caveat: Overthinking Comics is not responsible for any action you may take as a result of listening to these crazy theories.
