Sydney is wandering around the room demanding what the last pop-culture thing they said was. It’s inefficient. Speaking of, how is it that the names for Sydney’s hair color are “Dirty Blonde” or “Dishwater Blonde?” I can see some women[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

They fixed the specularity, now to just add some subsurface scattering… and surface imperfections, and skin texture so she isn’t walking around looking like she has a photoshop gaussian blur filter on her, maybe some freckles. This choker won’t let[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I understand why in most fantasy settings, it takes people (humans especially) decades to learn how to use magic… or at least why it takes everyone else decades, but in nearly every book I read, the Main Character has a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’m sure everyone can come up with a bevy of other songs Harem might “solo,” especially with a few choice altered lyrics. You’s and She’s into Me’s, etc. A few that pop to mind: I Touch Myself, Afternoon Delight, etc.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Happy being slightly to moderately hung over from July 4th if you’re in America and happened to party last night, or if you’re not in America and just decided to get drunk for totally unrelated reasons. Sometimes I need to[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

See, the colors on the chokers randomize each time the little spinny arrow thing is spun, so you never know who is going to be “it.” Now all I can think about is the succubus versions of different games, board[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

This is why I suddenly had to start doing the specular pass on Maxima, otherwise the choker would look like it actually added shininess to her. Max isn’t, or I should say wasn’t, medium-brown haired before the whole gold-plated phase. Dabbler[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Imagine if everyone had to wear one of these and the colors randomized every morning. Yeah. I’m sure… something would be different. Fashion probably. And we could all learn some lesson like the Star Bellied Sneetches. Or just find other[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’m usually pretty bad about drawing Maxima being actually shiny. I’ve done it a few times in the past, but it takes an extra rendering pass, and usually by the times I get the backgrounds done and Sydney’s glasses and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Glen is one of the previously unnamed fashion ninja from way back on page 316. One of Ashley’s assistant. Why they are ninjas instead of just seam… seamsters. Textile crafters? Whatever, it’s probably an interesting story. Which won’t be told[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

If she’s not using them, I often forget about Sydney’s orbs until I’m placing them on the page, which I usually do near the end, and sometimes that results in the orbs being shoved off to the side while she[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Military training montage! For a given definition of “military” and “montage.” And “training” if I’m honest. The number of times any given instructor has fantasized about This-Is-Sparta-ing some obnoxious trainee is definitely not zero. This is the primary advantage of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Is casually standing on water sacrilegious? I’m sure someone could take offense to it, but then people can take offense to basically anything. (A fact which clearly invalidates all peoples’ feelings in all matters.) Does Max care? She does not.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Frix isn’t reminding Prinrin that Sydney is a potential an engine of destruction because he’s afraid of what she might actually do, but because it’s a pretty good way to deflect her interest. I’m sure there’s been more than a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I far more amused with “tall, bark, and fluffy” than I should be. Sydney is only just barely on board with attempting polyamorous relationships, and even then, it does seem it’s mostly because the two guys she’s shown the most[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Yes, Digit was heavily inspired by Gadget. Okay, actually, there’s this poster… I mentioned this in a comment on the previous page, but here it is with a little more info. Whoever this lady is, combine her and Gadget and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I thought it’d be amusing to show Sydney moon-jumping around and for some reason I thought that would be best illustrated from the foot up. So, a slightly odd page. I regret not being able to make it all feet[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I see some of you guessed, if not this exact thing, then at least what the general function of the encapsulated nodes off of each orb might be. As for what each specific power might be… As the stinger suggests,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

As suggested in the stinger, the lack of labels on these would make this upgrade process either especially agonizing or you’d just shrug and buy whatever. I think a little time spent thinking about the layout is probably a good[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

An Orc at College I’ve recommended this Liam Lawson series before. I love me some good xenoanthropology, and my favorite thing about this series is the “fish out of water”/”Tarzan in New York” bits where the Orc main character has[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

FYI: People had been correctly pointing out that the “hyperdrive” branch of the skill tree needed an orb in the first spot, so I’ve added that now. Not retroactively yet, but at any rate, the OCD amongst you can unclench[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

To get the full impact of this page, you really have to imagine panels 3 and 9 happening in extreme slow motion. Panel 9 especially, because Maxima used super speed to whip around to see what was happening, so she[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Fortunately, wet Woofs smell like caramelized honey and campfires. That would actually be super weird, if whenever he got wet it smelled like something was on fire. Yes, Detla’s mask can do expressions. Or at least match what her eyes[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Detla is going to get the impression that Archon is some sort of co-ed college comedy romp. That or she’s going to start punching dudes. It’s also possible that everyone in Arc-SWAT has decided to cock block Achilles today because[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Callbacks, yo. Please ignore that the layout of headquarters has dramatically changed since that picture. Sydney didn’t return to an alternate version of Earth from her space adventure, or anything. I’m just… bad at remembering to look at old pages[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Jeeze, I hope no one walks out the door to the pool right then. Maybe jump a little to the side there, Anvil. So I was like, Dabbler is kind of a pain in the butt to draw, what with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Hmm, take the stairs up one floor to the roof which you then intend to jump off, or just take the elevator down three floors? You have to admit, Anvil is thinking like a super. I imagine most women, and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’ll admit, this page might be a little gratuitous, but I haven’t drawn anyone showering for quite some time. I mean, I haven’t drawn anyone showering in the comic. I’ve done several shower scenes in the vote incentives. Maybe the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I was going to go on a tangent about various systems of law enforcement on today’s page, but Achilles’s “Good enough for me” isn’t going to be the end of the “Aren’t you under arrest” issue, so I’ll save that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’m sure a few of you are like “Uh, didn’t she get arrested?” It comes up on the next page. The whole “You spared and/or saved my life, therefore you own my life and/or I must serve you” seems like[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

This feels like a jarring transition to me, but the alternative was to stick with Maxima as she does a ton of paperwork , hands out tickets (or whatever the procedure is for arresting space mercenaries) and debriefs the team[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

And here we are, the end of the Times Square arc. It honestly took quite a bit longer than I thought it would, but I could probably say that about any storyline in the comic, so at least I’m consistent[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

So, is she possessing him? And if so, why didn’t she just toss herself onto Maxima’s head? The answer is… kind of, but not really. Basically, she’s not “high level” enough to straight up possess someone. Right now, she’s somewhere[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Whoops! Forgot what day of the week it was. :/ In my excuse, 1) that’s only the second or maybe third time I’ve ever done that. Not the worst track record over the ten plus year run so far. If[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

And we come full circle, back to the alien tourists who launched this whole escapade. We’re almost wrapped up with this storyline, as I know a few of you are having Sydney withdrawal, myself included. Uh… yeah. Not sure what[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Oh shit, he’s dating a lizard person, get it!? Or possibly some sort of hillbilly. It’s even odds if you’re wanting to put money on it. This is admittedly just a weird transitional page that doesn’t do a lot more[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

In an mixed alien/fantasy race situation, one could probably get a lot of mileage out of “It’s instinctive for my people.” or “It’s how my people do things.” or “My gods require…” It’s also an easy way to get busted[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Cora is really skirting the edge here, and I’m not really sure why other than it makes me laugh. She does probably have a point about warrantless “wire” taps, especially since she’s using crazy alien tech to tap the A/V[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

My first draft of this page had a nonomatopoeia in panel 5 that said “TELLING PAUSE?” but I decided you guys are smart enough to figure that out without the hand holding. Love me some nonomatopoeias though. It was a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Cora and Dabbler obviously have some shared history and sense of humor. Dabbler tries to not fly her “I’m an alien sex demon intergalactic woman of mystery and mayhem” TOO high while she’s on Earth, but sometimes it slips out.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Before you go scrambling to google, “obstroculous” is a word Mrs. Slocombe of “Are You Being Served” made up. Based on context, it means “obstructive” or “being difficult” as in a person, not like a math problem. There is a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I guess HenchWench vividly described her plans to Maxima during the side-flash to Super-super max, otherwise how did Max know she was assuming it would be co-ed? Okay, so here’s a question. If Henchwench’s powers only work with supervillains, her[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I like how it’s the act of merely stamping a printout of the LLC filing that takes away HenchWench’s powers. Although, using devil/fae rules, Arianna probably had to sign the line under the stamp before it affected her. Normally, someone[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

To be honest, I’m not sure how that rebar got through Henchwench’s leg, if Brüt’s knee could take Maxima’s .557 round. I will say though, Max wasn’t using an armor piercing Tyrannosaur round. She knows she’s not Archon’s best shot,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I think Henchwench is trying to vie with Lorlara for second place in the crazy face competition. Sydney is obviously unassailable at number 1. I assume her contract has a section about how you can’t sue her for tricking you[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

The extended fight scene that took place while Brüt made his calls did involve some attempts at tickling. Is Henchwench super crazy ticklish? I’d like to think so. This fight has been going on for a while. Brüt didn’t fare[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...
