Aww, Lucy. Cheer up, buttercup! Nobody blames you for being a failure!
If you’ve been enjoying Helvetica, please consider donating to my patreon to help keep it alive!
Also, I have an ask.fm if you’d ever like to ask me something!
Lucy is just a precious cinnamon roll I know these things
He just didn’t think this thing through completely
That’s okay though he’s a precious lil babe
[so is Steak with his arm around a certain someone c;]
*squirms and flails around like a fish for a few minutes, dies of fangirl overload*
*is kindly resurrected as a skeleton person so as not to miss any gayness*
Steak x Good heavens is now my webcomics OTP
Yeah Steak is definitely the “group-Dad”. Poor guy, he has to keep Heavens from becoming a murderer, reassure Lucille so he won’t be sad the whole time, and keep Helvetica from being dumb and attacking people with guns.
(Also J.N., I heard you inspired Sans and Papyrus from Undertale. Once again you have helped get me emotionally attached to skeletons. Good job.)
I really need to shine some love on panels 2-4. The coloring and the subtle pulling away from Lucy (as well as his pitch-perfect body language)… It really highlights his despair and overwhelming doubt in himself. He feels like a failure, and we the readers fully sense that without him saying anything of the kind. Brilliantly, beautifully, sensitively done.
Goodness gracious I think this is my favorite page so far. I’ve been reading Helvetica since about….February 2015? Anyway, I love this page’s colors. Just fantastic.
Same here! I apologize for my one-thousand year late reply, but Undertale is still my main interest! I found this comic today, and it is really cool. :)
Here in December 2021 and started reading it literally today. I also heard about it through Undertale and I love this comic so much! From the story to the characters to the dramatic color palettes, this is truly a work of art! J.n Wiedle, whether you are reading this or not, I wish you the utmost success in your artistic endeavors/career! Please know that although I am reading Helvetica in a day, this series will stay with me for so much longer.
Hey! I was the 2017 commenter up there. It’s nice to see that 1. there are still Undertale fans, and 2. there are still people discovering this awesome Helvetica comic! Someone reminded me of this comic and I read through it all again. Have a good one. :)
Is it weird that I’m sensing one-sided feelings from Steak? Like he says they aren’t a thing, sure, but… Like….. Okay, so in the shop it didn’t seem unusual for him to feel uncomfortable with Heavens literally melting in front of Madame Herringbone, but he also glares at Flashlight when he blushes at Heavens. Also he doesn’t say anything when Autumn jokes that he’s jealous.
Honestly I’m probably just overlooking things lmao
Lucy is such a broken little angel, I just love himmm. Also, Steak, keeping hold of the goods there ;)
I JUST NOTICED THAT THEY WERE HOLDING EACH OTHER THANK YOU
I ship this to the max. ❤️
good ending: they are all dead
bad ending: they all die
???
omg lol
Ok so i looked back at these two comments and then i remember what happened. my computer didn’t show the first comment so i tried again -_-
ha ha omg lol
Profit
Oh, poor babies @w@
Thank goodness at least Steak has a calm mind. >.<
That’s some good paneling right there.

THAT FIRST PANEL THOOOOOO
STEAK AND HEAVENS ARE FECKING MARRIED AND I’M DYING
*squirms and flails around like a fish for a few minutes, dies of fangirl overload*

Steak was already one of my favorite characters, but this chapter just makes him even more interesting. I love how calm he is in the face of a crisis.
…but what happens after they die? Will we go down that rabbit hole? Is it Helveticaception?
that sad feeling when you like both characters, but hate the OTP.
I wonder what dying a second time entails? A new dimension?
Maybe an endless loop of new death dimensions… We will never know for sure >:D
Little does he know that when you die a second time you come back to life.
first panel HAND AROUND THE WAIST!! HAND AROUND THE WAIST!!!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL!! REPEAT: THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!
Wow, using lighter text for emphasis really works well!
Heavens: *puts his arm around Steak*
Me: ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉)b
Well! If Heavens and Steak are indeed a couple…
could you say they bone?
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
i like you
I’LL ARREST YOU IN THE NAME OF THE LAW DO NOT RESIST AREST! IT WILL ONLY BE A DIFFICULTY TWEAK
If none of them remember being alive, how do they know they’re dead?
Steak and GH are SO CUTE I’M GOING TO DIE!

OH MY GOD YOU WERE THE INSPIRATION FOR SANS AND PAPYRUS!!! Brilliant work there
I always knew their eyes looked a little Jones-y.
I actually came here because I’d heard about it through Undertale. I’m eating this comic up.. ;;

This is truly a SANSational comic! ;D
(I’m Undertale trash too lol)
Undertale is why I’m here, too… Although it seems I’m very late to this whole thing, being in 2020 and all…

Mm… better not.
I wonder if there’s an after-afterlife.
An afterdeath?
And also I wonder if there is an after-after-afterlife

Nah, I agree! I kinda interpreted the part where he said they weren’t a thing as frustration. Like he wished they were more than just roommates.
I second this notion with every particle of my existence.
So, when you die in death, do you get reborn in the land of the living? is it a loop?
MR. GOOD HEAVENS AND STEAK IS SO DAMN CUTE SANDONSAOIDNOIASNDOINAIOSD
If they die again…then what happens?
So they can die a second time…Huh. Where do they go after that? Are they just like reborn in this world again or do they stop existing or what?
I’m reading the whole thing again XDD
Oh good lord
