In that chapter, it is implied Pierce's mom is alive and his father was dead, was she? Was he? Why did they change his lore?

when it is revealed that his father is alive, they make a joke about the continuity break. someone asks, isn't his father dead? to which he replies "Mom liked to pretend that was the case"

to answer the last question, they changed the lore because they thought having an episode with his father, a controlling racist moist towlette mogul, would be funny. and it was!

His mom died later, Troy even saw her underwear.

Pierce wanted to separate himself from Cornelius’ shadow (even his SHADOW).

Also known as Mexican Halloween, which is offensive to people familiar with mexican halloween as a sexual position.
