Grrl Power

So for anyone waiting for the other shoe to drop, here it is. Granted, it's not a very big shoe, but the succubi are still manipulating people. You can call it mind control, or you can think of it as[...] Read the rest of this entry...

For those of you wondering who CoCoPineapple was, well, here's your answer. In case you don't recall, which is fair since it's been like 850 pages since his last appearance, he's the financial advisor who prevented Sydney from maybe possibly[...] Read the rest of this entry...

There is a college-age version of Maxima who would be offended at a woman's genitals being defined by their utility vis-a-vis male genitals. Actually, if we're playing the alternative universe game, then there's a version of non-superpowered non-six foot one[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Tantri-bind: Active Ingredient; nimora salka. Side effects include nausea, itchy scalp, temporary frigidity, random sphincter spasms (also known as Deadly Airlock Syndrome), fruitsome flappy woof-woofs, one of your eyes might move asynchronously, making you look bonkers or like Columbo. Consecutive[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I don't know where Heatwave is, but it probably involves some photo shoot on the rim of an active volcano. And while she's there, I'm sure a few scientists are like Hey can you swoop down there and fill up[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Max went into this expecting a lot of bickering and he did this and that to me" and she started it" and closed off body language and lack of eye contact, so she's a little exasperated by all the snuggling[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I paired the tallest guy on the team with the two shortest women (excluding Sydney) because the thought amused me, but I admit that I probably drew Ren a little big here. He's actually shorter than Anvil, at 6'5''. Peggy[...] Read the rest of this entry...

That awkward morning after. Except it's not the morning after, it's like, 30 minutes after. And everyone you work with is there, and they've all got sex hair and there's more than one person with their shirt on inside out.At[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Turns out succubi like sex. And also smooching all over people and stuff like that. Parfait will eventually run out of mana while she's projecting her lust aura out so far, so yeah, she'll eventually wind down on her own.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Maxima and Dabbler flew back from their DC meeting on a plane, since there was no way Max was going to carry Dabs across country that way. She can carry people obviously, but her own personal deflector field doesn't help[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Boy if you guys were clutching your pearls at the previous page... Parfait wasn't kidding about her lust aura, was she? Oh, and no kink shaming Gwen there. We all have our things. To clarify about the stinger - UV[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Hey Sydney, guess what happens if you invite (summon) an eager, young succubus over and hang out with her all night ogling boys and giggling and lounging around in PJs and talking about being an eagerly willing slave of a[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Being a haberdasher in heavily demon populated areas would be interesting work. Cause of the horns. I'm saying hats would be almost entirely bespoke. Sure, hats that have baseball cap-like adjustable thingies for temple horns would cover like, 30% of[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Did you know that in the original Night of the Living Dead, they never use the word Zombie. They do, however, use the word Ghoul. At least, it's said in one of the news reports. The people in the house[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Summoning a succubus and complaining about the jiggling is like summoning a fire elemental and complaining about the smoke inhalation. I'd say the undead are the natural enemies of succubi because undead don't get horny, but that's not really true.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I wish I had a cleaning cantrip. There's a lot of decent options when it comes to cantrips, but in everyday real life? A little bacon spatter on the stove top? Cleaning cantrip. Inside of the microwave after heating up[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I guess Parfait has her Auto Reply to Summoning Requests" set to Automatically Accept." In her defense, she's just getting her career as a professional Succubus started, and her Summoning Rolodex has like 4 names at the moment? All those[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Black honey with gold in it is totally something I can see being put on, I don't know, upscale baklava. Maybe even the saffron, (a subtle earthy-sweet flavor profile with a tinge of bitterness on the tongue with delicate floral[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Arc-LIGHT's dress code is pretty relaxed, as you can tell. Granted this is after hours, and in the office, not the field, but Maxima doesn't even let Dabbler walk around with exposed side-panty most of the time. It doesn't hurt[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I can tell with about an 85% accuracy whether or not a motion captured performance in a video game was done by a Japanese performer or an American one. I'm pulling that number out of my ass - there's no[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Magic in and of itself doesn't have an ethical preference in the Grrl-verse, but it is a force of nature which is also a tool, in that sapients and even some sentients can manipulate it. This also includes vast, incomprehensible[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Ingsol has known a lot of politicians. Well, mostly kings and such until fairly recently. They usually didn't have pander to the serfs, but depending on the kingdom, some had to play nice with the rest of the gentry. You[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I'm actually rooting for Maxima's plan, but when it can be not inaccurately spun as Superheroine plans on unleashing death portal in order to further empower her own militarized super powered police force." mmmmaybe some peer review is in order.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Exposition by way of ignorant character acting as audience projectee is vital, you guys. Dabbler asking Is that something they teach in schools here?" sounds condescending on its face, but she's been to a lot of planets and it's hard[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The demon there is a Scourger. It's a race, a rank, and a calling. It's like a sergeant, in that they whip the troops into shape, just with literal whips. During action, they stand in the back and whip the[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The werewolf mafia is actually a cabal of several different therianthrope species, as well as some other supernaturals, (and plenty of mundanes on the street level) but they decided that calling themselves The Wereweasel mafia didn't sound as cool. The[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Oh sheeeeit, haven't seen her in a while! Okay, some (most) of you are probably all, Um... who is that?" It's Sciona, who is possessing Escorpias murdered body. (She got better.) Of course, no one in the room knows this.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

What Max is really asking is, Dangerous to who?" Or possibly To whom?" I'm not sure about that breaks down. Basically, it just occurred to Max that most adventurers aren't, well, Apocalypse Tier threats. Or S+ Tier, or Diamond/Dragon/Platinum/Divine Tier.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Dabbler reaaaaaaaly wants to hear specifics. This is absolute torture for her, but they both know that Maxima knows something is up. Dabs isn't exactly being subtle here, but she's going to take the lifeline as offered.Max might not even[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Not speaking to Dabbler in sexualized terms and stark innuendo is something she considers a micro-aggression. It's culturally insensitive and racist against succubi, and she will report you to a very exhausted, frustrated HR person. At least she used to[...] Read the rest of this entry...

This is literally the most nervous Max has been in a really long time. When she's in a life or death battle, there's too much adrenaline to be nervous, and socially, she's usually around subordinates. I don't know which is[...] Read the rest of this entry...

It's possible Deus has warped Maxima's taste in whiskey over the last few years. She may be super sus of him and his motivations, but she's not going to turn down the top-tippy-super-promise-definitely-the-highest shelf stuff. If she'd thought about it,[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Okay, I know this seems like a bit of a jump in the conversation, and it is, but it's also made worse by the fact that I forgot to add a line at the end of the previous page. If[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I accidentally drew Max about 135% too flirty in that last panel. She is starting to enjoy herself, (partially because she has put away a suspicious amount of alcohol) but she's not at the Hello, there Sailor" stage yet. It's[...] Read the rest of this entry...

They say write what you know, but that's dumb because then who would write Doctor Who and Superhero comics and speculative fiction and any sort of fantasy or really anything but autobiographies? Still, I have no business writing about people[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I didn't realize it, but Julie Strain was 6'1'', just like Max. I'm assuming most of you know who she was. If you don't, the short version before you hit up google is that she was basically the cover girl[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Some people have asked why Max went to a bar, basically a singles bar, if she doesn't want to get hit on. Well, her lack of inexperience in this area means she also lacks creativity. And it's not like she[...] Read the rest of this entry...

When I had originally envisioned the comic, I'd sort of planned on trying to go the Mega Dragon and Tiger" route with the art. That is, do simpler flat art for much of the comic, with the occasional glamor shot"[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Max is supposed to be more attractive than I can realistically draw her. Really, all the super women (and men) are, but for Max especially, she's at that constant problem for her both privately and professionally" level, which also would[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Maxima is good at taking hits, but is terrible at getting hit on. You can tell she's actively dreading it in that first panel. The first and third guy don't really deserve any consideration, IMO, but the second guy? I[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Yes, Maxima can metabolize an incredible amount of alcohol. So much for a low-key start to her evening. Max has literally never been an adult and looked inconspicuously human. She knows how they're supposed to act, but she's always been[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Max's problem with having a mundane evening is that her car has 700 horsepower and she's used to casually breaking the sound barrier, so yeah, she has a bit of a lead foot. Or whatever her foot is made of.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I spent about 30 second deciding what kind of car Max has. It had to be something with a fair bit of horsepower, but nothing too froo-froo, so it kind of locked her into muscle cars, and the Shelby GT-500[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Max shouted the quiet part. But then, she’s the field leader of the U.S.’s Super team, so for all anyone getting lunch there knows, wormholes are a daily occurence. I’m not sure if the glare at the end there is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I like the super advanced alien tech being transferred via paper blueprint. It’s just an artistic shortcut, really. Actual alien data technology probably looks like a single slice of graphite from a 0.5 mm mechanical pencil. Something so ridiculously compact[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

To clarify from the prior page, Max isn’t necessarily on board with trying to loot Galytn technology from under Deus’s nose. But she’s in the room with her boss’s boss and there are already plans in existence, so she’s going[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...
