Well of course there's unknown chemicals, he's only got 5 test tubes full of stuff that reacts a certain way when you stick a specific other chemical in it." There's probably a shorter name for that. But it's unlikely that[...] Read the rest of this entry...

References: Sciona used a cut-out-the-distance-between-things artifact stolen from the Twilight Council's black vault to create the Skybreaker, which Deus, by way of Vale, stole and turned in into the backbone of his not-a-Stargate program. Full disclosure, everything I know about[...] Read the rest of this entry...

When Maxima came back from her first... well, not date, I guess. After she ditched the bar with Rowan. Date" to me implies a prearranged thing, but whatever. They met at the bar, then went to a second location, so[...] Read the rest of this entry...

A normal 2 handed sword weighs 5-8 pounds (granted, there's a very broad range of what constitutes a two handed sword"), whereas a bearing sword weighs 14-15 pounds, and are roughly 7 and a half feet long, including the handle.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

See, page title comes from Maxima being shown at three different ages there across the bottom of the page. Granted, the older version is a bit speculative. And sure, there's more than just the three ages. Maybe 9 year old[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The sword I designed for Max isn't the one she chose when she visited Cora's Starforge. That one can accept channeled power to increase its cutting ability. This one is the more defensive mana eater that had been discussed briefly.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Honestly if Sydney had gotten an 11-alarm Indian dish like atomic lamb korma, her body might not have even noticed the meat. I like a little spice when I get Indian, or a little heat on my Thai Fried Rice[...] Read the rest of this entry...

...She drinks a cinnabar drink, she drinks a hydrargyrum drink... And oh, look, even in the rare cases where she gets knocked down, she does get up again. I should note that inducing vomiting if someone swallows mercury is not[...] Read the rest of this entry...

We've only seen transition Maximillia" once before, and at the time, I managed to not turn that flashback into a whole long side-story. I'm sure I could do 40 pages on that period of her life, no problem. But don't[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I know what we're all thinking. If we could eat metal, we'd all like to try Gallium. For the few of you who weren't thinking that, and wondering why the rest of us were, it's because Gallium's melting point is[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney hadn't called on the part of her brain that stores normal meat dishes, and then suddenly the dam broke, and every recipe, meat related or not, spilled out. Maxima does have an extensive shopping list, but an Earther can't[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Fogo de Chao is my go-to for fancy restaurants. Birthdays, wanting to suffer from a delicious meat coma, other reasons... I'm sure there are some. It's not really a Valentines Day place. Because the meat comas aren't conducive to post-V-Day[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Working out is hard when you can lift the entire gym. The bottom-left panel is supposed to be a hypothetical Everglades post-maximum Maxima event. I assumed Willy Crocman would make that obvious-ish, but the background could also be interpreted as[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Maxima obviously has extraordinarily strong bones and ligaments and tendons etc - like, make a space elevator cable out of that stuff" strong, so when she cracks her joints, it sound a bit like the 1812 Overture. The version where[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney definitely would have forgotten she was wearing holo-boobs before heading back. The question is, what did she have on under them? Well, the answer is, she did actually take off her shirt, but still had her bra on. Which[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Yeah, so fighting super monsters and ultra bots is not without risks. Ya'doy! I rewrote this page a few times. The original version just had a word bubble... or a narrator bubble... I should probably know what that's called. Anyway,[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Don't worry about UMBRage. He's a remote piloted bioroid. Like a mecha, only organic and the pilot is somewhere off-table in an advanced V.R. suite. Was there a part of me that considered ending the tournament with Maxima losing and[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I want to know what Cora's Hard Light Holo-Projection interface looks like that she can spontaneously select a sword and have it appear to grow out of her cleavage, all without missing a beat in her conversation. I imagine her[...] Read the rest of this entry...

You know, Maxima's boss's bosses might also think this was a wildly irresponsible thing to do as well. It will all depend on the final result of the tournament and how much detail she puts into her after action report.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I wish I was the kind of artist that could draw a room with like, 60 people in it*, because these 7 to 12 person watch parties over the last few pages are a little sad looking. (*It helps that[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I think the most revelatory thing about this page is that demons have commercial brownie mix. I know I've shown succubi shopping before, but that was a little tongue in cheek. I was really thinking the store would really have[...] Read the rest of this entry...

This was supposed to be the second half of the prior page, but in addition to having a lot of books shamelessly throw themselves at me last week, I underestimated how much time it would take to draw a watch[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I really tried to make this page and the next a double, but I ran out of time. It was, admittedly, a little bit my fault. So, Tamer 11 came out, at least it did if you supported the Kickstarter.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

For this page, I did google how long do boobs take" or... something along those lines. Obviously the answer varies from person to person, and in a the cruelest twist of the knife, the age that they actually start growing[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sure, an actual Black Hole can probably absorb a lot of energy before it destabilizes. In fact, as far as I know, they can absorb an unlimited amount of energy. I allow for some wiggle room there because maybe if[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney doesn't really have A-Cup Angst. She doesn't walk around fuming that all her teammates are better endowed than her. She's even gotten a little used to the communal showers. It's not her favorite thing, but she's a lot more[...] Read the rest of this entry...

A line of Cora's that I had to cut for space: I'm a hard fighting adventurer, but I also like taking care of my men. Sometimes that means running dangerous missions beside them, sometimes it means dressing up sexy and[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Action pages are hard to comment on usually, because he punched that other guy real good," is sometimes about all you can say about them. In this case, my only real comments are that I've decided to call the buff[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I should have put all the competitor's names on that splash screen on page 1425, only I hadn't thought of them at that point. I tried to come up with a name for Maxima's arena alter-ego that didn't sound like[...] Read the rest of this entry...

In a no holds barred Battle Royale, blowing up the whole battlefield is a pretty solid option, assuming you yourself could survive it. Of course, in an unlimited class arena, there's a chance your opponents could too. Still, why not?[...] Read the rest of this entry...

So this may seem like a bit of a jump, because it is. Basically I realized this quick little jaunt to the tournament had already taken about 4 times as long as I'd intended, because as long as I've been[...] Read the rest of this entry...

What Daphne said in the bottom middle panel is essentially correct, although simplified for space. And by simplified," I mean the details are important. It's not maybe one particle is moving and another isn't," it's that there's no difference. One[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Never poke a sleeping... Actually, it's probably okay when she's more or less pinned under 450 lbs of space boyfriend. I would have actually given even chances that Sydney's dreams were totally coherent and had sensible continuity. Although, come to[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I know what you're wondering. If Gaxgy has a treasure hoard, and he frequents a station that has several Petty Gold" lockers, wouldn't he just clean them out each time? Well, the answer is simply that he's allowed to grab[...] Read the rest of this entry...

But Gaxgy is still in my line of sight, so your cynical key-jangling attempt failed!" But what about the next thing that distracts you?" Shoot! You got me there! What were we talking about?" I'm sure many of you know[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney just has an inquisitive nature, is all. And she often thinks of obvious questions that no one has bothered asking, because they're obvious, but sometimes thinks of advanced questions that no one has yet considered, but when she does[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Destra eventually gets it. Oh, because they are slaves! Yes, this amuses." Garamm and Lapha aren't in a position to quit their current employment arrangement, but they are getting housed, fed, trained and paid, (albeit in U.S. dollars,) but you[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Cora means Max could take on everyone physically, but a like any good adventuring parties, quite a few of them have indirect powers, or things like crowd control debufs, or can turn into mist, or just cast crazy ritual magic[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Many dragons have treasurephilia. A fetish for gold and trinkets and shiny, magic weapons and sometimes even nicely framed art or delicate glass figurines. Having a big hoard is a nesting instinct, as humanoid currency isn't really a necessity for[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I wanted there to be more crews present, but I ran out of space and time to draw them. Also, there really should have been a few more aliens and sci-fi looking people in the mix, but no, I just[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I may have mentioned this before, but for some reason, jokes about things being load-bearing always land with me. Probably because the only ones I've heard are absurdist. I think Brooklyn 99 did one about a balloon arch being load-bearing.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The thing I've recently discovered about drawing big dragon guys covered in scales is that it rapidly becomes tedious to draw a big dragon guy covered in scales, on account of all the scales. His face doesn't help either. I[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Happy Thanksgiving to Americans, if they indeed have anything to be thankful for. Garamm isn't, strictly speaking, a dragon guy." Yes, he has scales, but despite generally seeming to be a good guy most of the time, or at least[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sometimes the page titles just come to me, and sometimes it takes me an hour to come up with something even the slightest bit relevant and is probably confusing. Guess how long this one took me. :/ Maxima could have[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Edit: As usual, I biffed the math here. People were saying 9 cc of material would make a sword that's measured in microns of thickness and I didn't understand how I messed up by so many orders of magnitude, so[...] Read the rest of this entry...

In case you can't read it, the security screen in panel 2 says EROPASS" at the top, and the screen says Think about your favorite orgy, you dirty space trollop. -X,xox" and there's a little heart there too. This first[...] Read the rest of this entry...
