Having never been female myself, I don't know what Unexpected Feelings of Femaleness" would be. Were I a facetious person, I might suggest a sudden urge to go shoe shopping, buy a bunch of makeup, even though they already have[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I might be overdoing it a little with how good looking this guy is supposed to be (and granted, that profile view isn't really doing him any favors, but roll with me on this.) But as the Mythbusters say, if[...] Read the rest of this entry...

There was a part of me that thought this page would have been amusing with stick figure art, in a weird meta comic prank, because this page is a cameo debut that's been a long time coming, and to wait[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I mean really, why not an axe and a sword? It's not like Maxima really has an encumbrance limit. The real limit is just how much stuff she can situate on her back before it gets in the way of[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona definitely controls the senator, and the senator does sit on the committee that deals with Archon's budget, but that doesn't exactly give her much power over Archon. Not that she is necessarily gunning for them directly, anyway. Well, she[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The move was Friday. It's Sunday night as I'm posting this, and I'm positive 6 days have elapsed. Tired. Itchy. Tasty. Deus doesn't need an excuse to invade neighboring countries, but it sure helps with motivating his people and keeping[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Hah! Deus has a history with air quotes. I forgot about that but someone linked that page in the comments for the previous comic. Deus has been working for at least a decade in preparation for his takeover bid. He's[...] Read the rest of this entry...

SYDNEY: Wait, how am I a danger to myself?" MAXIMA: Well, you did you just hit your superior officer with a deadly weapon... even if it's decidedly non-deadly to me. Still, you did just volunteer to peel every potato in..."[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona's managed to get herself on Maxima's More info needed" list. She'll pass on her suspicions to Zephan about it he'll assign someone to investigate further. It's got to be a party foul when you're hanging out with people who[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Hey look! I figured out a way to do art quicker that didn't involve stick figures! Hah hah, well, I managed to amuse myself, anyway. Don't worry, this gag only runs for two pages. Man, it was so hard to[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Also I haven't worn my hair straight like that since Friends went off the air. And I want the doll to be more fit. I want little girls wanting to grow up looking like athletes, not one missed meal away[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The concrete setting guy's actual power is to accelerate any sort of chemical reaction without any weird side effects. I mean, no weird side effects like weakening the chemical bonds of the end product. And yes, that would make him[...] Read the rest of this entry...

For those wondering, Sciona's boobs can become selectively sticky. Not THAT way, you pervs. Okay, also THAT way, but it's certainly not how she's doing it on these recent pages. This page went through some editing, originally Sciona said something[...] Read the rest of this entry...

No, she's an Alari P.A! Sciona is an ancient-ish bloodmage who has proven ridiculously hard to kill in the past, and she does look down on nearly everyone. BUT - there's no chance an adult Alari doesn't have a stiletto[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I don't know if only a wolverine could be specifically responsible for Lorlara's speech pattern. I don't have any esoteric knowledge about wolverine digestive processes. Maybe a goat could also work. Possibly a housecat with pancreatitis? I think propriokinesics is[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona hasn't given much thought to the fact that Deus probably has access to Alaripidia. Or whatever subset of it the colony ship that took up residence in Galytn brought with them. As that ship was a joint venture between[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona panicked just a little there. She's in a really good position and doesn't want to have to disappear and rebuild another power base. As a professional antagonist, that's the usual pattern. Build up a power base with some questionable[...] Read the rest of this entry...

That would be SO. LOUD. It would make your vision vibrate. Triceratopi is definitely the plural for traceratopses. Don't look it up. Sydney's new nickname for Slam is Blue Moon." She won't explain why, or why she's as familiar as[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Just admit you're a furry, Sydney! Your current boyfriend is covered in the stuff, and not because you're dating Dan Hedaya or still-alive Robin Williams. Is a were-reptile in hybrid form room-temperature-blooded? And what would that mean for their metabolism?[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Cretaceousify" is the nonomatopoeia, in case it's hard to read. Maybe I should have gone with Cretaceous-ify," but that looks too close to iffy." Cretacify" might work spoken, but written it's confusing. Node runny" is a typo, but... screw it.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney's never more ADHD than when she gets to question supers/weres/mages/cryptids/aliens about themselves. I would say any non-human, but supers are human, and if she found herself trapped in a room with an honest to god ninja he might wind[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona is poor at feigning ignorance, (or non-superiority) so imagine her first few lines coming across a little bored sounding, like she's just reading lines with her college roommate who is suuuuper into her drama classes, and Sciona just... can't.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Sciona's bootynm might be Vaguely Threatening Platinum Latina" Platina? Yeah, I'm a sucker for a portmanteau. Vaguely Threatening Platina." Honestly, I think Sciona might be just a little bit sweet on 6x Guy. She as much as said there would[...] Read the rest of this entry...

That particular spell just so happens to require the blood of a dude you recently banged six times in a row. Hey, I don't make the rules. Okay, fine, it really only requires a drop of blood from a dual[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Weren't everyone's family portraits done under some sort of duress? Usually it's mom cracking the whip, or sometimes it's mom and dad, but I never met any kids that were excited to be forced into a collared shirt so you[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Peggy's new favorite thing to do? Not hopping when she gets out of bed in the morning. I mean, sure, she'd probably keep her prosthetic next to the bed, but I assume she has one especially for the shower, fully[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Peggy's seen some nasty stuff in combat, but she was almost entirely spared the more visceral elements of losing her leg, as she passed out when Max hiked the Pave Hawk, then woke up post surgery. No one ever showed[...] Read the rest of this entry...

So I've been having trouble keeping up with the comic due to helping out my mom, and then my brain hits me with this gag, and of course, the whole thing requires a certain level of art to really land.[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Happy almost Xmas! For those of you who partake. I guess I jumped the gun talking about subtitles under the last page. Oh well. I do personally find it almost impossible not to read subtitles... or just captioning really, when[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The exception to exotic skin colors applied to pre-sexy people is that baby-shit yellow color that major appliances were in the 60s and 70s. You can call it Harvest Gold" all you want, but it's baby-shit-yellow. On humans that just[...] Read the rest of this entry...

...that was about the hardest thing I've ever done and I've ________________" sat in a meeting with the joint chiefs without rolling my eyes. resisted the urge to punch out a sexist MTI* during basic. had to[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Don't point at your commanding officer, Sydney, or j'accuse her of stuff. Maxima is a ridiculously lax officer when it comes to discipline... I mean, honestly, there probably aren't any actual military officers who are as casual as her in[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The security spell is still there, it just, uh, soaked into the drywall. Shkran lak" is thank you" in Arabic. At least according to google translate. Arabic is the first language Dabbler learned/copied/cheated when she got to Earth. She also[...] Read the rest of this entry...

I don't have to tell anyone that's Dabbler, right? I considered putting <--(Dabbler)" on the page, but between her eyes, behavior, the Who's Who and someone in the comments invariably asking Who's the nurse?" and 11 answers, only 7 of[...] Read the rest of this entry...

The military is probably not great for disability inclusion.Not for field work anyway. I mean, battleships don't have accessibility ramps, and the control panel of a Blackhawk probably doesn't have braille anywhere on it, and there's no spot in a[...] Read the rest of this entry...

In my eagerness to put this goofy page up, I have skipped an important transitional page, which would have shown - without dialog - a doctor talking to a forlorn looking Peggy, a doctor showing an X-ray of what was[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Is there anything a bossomy hug can't fix? Well, yes, but that's no excuse not to keep trying. I struggled with the layout of this page because I really wanted to include the above group hug panel on it,[...] Read the rest of this entry...

While Maxima certainly has strong feelings about things like burqas (niqabs, hijabs, etc.) she also has strong feelings about reflecting bright desert sunlight 20 miles away, and revealing the nature of her classified existence while in the field. Also, if[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Blushing Peggy, adorkably cute Sydney, sexy (if imaginary and embellished) Maxima. This is one of my favorite pages I've done in a while. A lot of you guessed something like this, or basically nailed it exactly. It's not like I[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Clearly the floor of that valley/canyon thing is solid stone with a dusting of sand, because if it was 10 foot deep sand, the truck would thud into a dune, maybe flip once, but more likely roll over maybe halfway[...] Read the rest of this entry...

There was a time in the era of competitive Quake 3 when I was young enough to have ridiculous reflexes and a DSL line giving me a sub-fifty ping. (Do you younguns still know what ping is? Everyone has broadband[...] Read the rest of this entry...

Happy Halloween! Everyone dress slutty! FYI, the final panel is what you get if you type Stick that rocket up their ass!" into google translate and tell it to Arabic it. I have minimal faith in the accuracy of that[...] Read the rest of this entry...
