Grrl Power

It’s a really good thing Decollete didn’t do the hypno voice in front of Maxima. While Max understands that monsters got to monst, and The Twilight Council polices themselves, mind control is way over the line, even if those dudes[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

While Sydney sometimes wishes she had a larger chest, she’s not the kind of girl that’s ever gone shopping for a guy by putting the twins on display. In fact, with the exception of a few cosplay outfits, she has[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Happy thanksgiving to those of you who do that sort of thing. So this is the other big difference between a human girl and a preadolescent succubus. Their tantric needs are marginal, and if you’re a young succubus living with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

There’s more to being a tweenage succubus than Tamatha’s gotten to, but you know, I can only fit so much on one page. Having never been a young girl, I’m operating under the impression that something goes ‘ping’ one day[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

“Some of my best friends are demons. Well, one demon, and… best friend is a bit strong. Friend. Work buddy. Friendly but occasionally sexually antagonistic teammate.” So Tamatha grew up, obviously aware that she was a ‘monster’ of some sort.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney’s not a big drinker. Like myself, she prefers ‘dessert in a glass’ style cocktails and adult milkshakes and only knows of about a dozen off the top of her head. They decided to eschew the VIP lounge tonight and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

So this is a weird page. When I wrote it, I was thinking that, as Krona suggested, Archon actually does have a sort of secret identity allowance of sorts. Not that members of Arc-SWAT are allowed to have a secret,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney is going to find it’s increasingly difficult to go anywhere anonymously. Also, if they’re trying to get into a nightclub, putting already-young-looking Sydney in twintails may not be tactically advisable. Harem really can steal anything, so long as she can[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney trying to ‘sploit her genre knowledge has every chance of backfiring. That or she didn’t call out the right thing. Maybe “Smash cut to me stumbling out of an exploded massage parlor!” or “…an exploded chicken nugget factory!” or[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

There are probably a large number of people who are extremely nervous that a not-yet-even-a-private knows crap that a whole bunch of extremely high ranked people don’t. There are three star generals don’t know a thing about the Twilight Council.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

NdGT isn’t a patron of the comic, but I couldn’t help but think that if someone had traveled to deep space, met aliens and then returned, every goddamned scientist in the world would want to hear all about it. The[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

So this is kind of a weird page, I mentioned on the previous comment that this page was originally a tour of the rest of the comic shop, but halfway through drawing it, I decided it was informative but boring.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

This page was inspired largely by a comment someone left waaaaay long ago saying they thought it was odd that Sydney received her own superhero logo with zero fanfare. I agreed, but wherever the comic was at that point, the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Yeah, it’s a pretty big church. Or was. I modeled the interior after what I remember of the church my parents used to drag me too, and it was no megachurch, but it was a custom built job, and it[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

They’ve been busy while Sydney was gone. I imagine most custom stained glass window installations usually take a few months to turn around, but it’s pretty amazing what you can get done when you have a government agency backing you…[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

It’s a lot easier to draw Sydney’s circular shield than her Honda Element. I assume that’s either parked back at her apartment or in the garage at Archon. And honestly how often is she going to use her car now?[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Page 777! It’s the number of the upstairs neighbor of the beast. And a few doors down. Depends on how the building is laid out really. I’m not absolutely sure who these guys are. For the purposes of the story[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

There are probably a lot of psychologists who would like to take a crack at Sydney… Well, maybe not. She’s not that complicated really. A ton of ADHD, lots of humor deflection-itis, whatever that’s called, a little Peter Pan Syndrome.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Exciting scheduling and making evening plans! I know what you guys come here for. And yes, Krona Bips her ear, and then I didn’t draw anything in her ear. I guess she’s got the same invisible bluetooth earpieces that the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

There’s probably a bit more to polyamory than what Harem says, but that’s got to be a pretty good starting point. Obviously things get more complicated when people start talking about marriage, but that’s almost entirely because the laws in[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Harem might have polyamory down to a science, but that doesn’t mean all of her advice will be applicable to anyone but herself. The masculine of ‘mistress’ is actually ‘master.’ I mean, it’s obvious if you think about it, but[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney is actually pretty used to apologizing. As many of you may have figured out, she’s an act first and think second sort of gal. (When she thinks at all.) It’s no wonder she’s a single child. Her parents couldn’t[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I would watch Most Extreme News Network. I’m assuming the format is them mentioning a top level piece of news, basically just the headline. Nothing in depth. Then they make a bunch of bad puns and tangentially related goofy comments.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Cora and her crew have heard of the exploits of the supers that Dabbler has been hanging out with, but it’s obviously different seeing it in action. Probably a touch humbling too. I’m not sure why Maxima is standing like[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I done goofed. I have to own it. The very first draft of this page had Sydney saying something slightly more innocuous like “When did this happen!?” or whatever. Then at some point while I was drawing it I decided[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

If you were wondering why Max hadn’t joined the fray yet, this is it. It’s not like she couldn’t have knocked some heads first, but she wanted to be sure the Interdictor’s shields wouldn’t interrupt her blast. She wasn’t that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

After I drew this page I realized I probably should have put it before the previous one, showing that Arc-SWAT has a way of interfering with the Fel shields. Jiggawatt’s attack only sets up small groups for ballistic attack, but[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

So I guess Stalwart is a lefty? That or he’s pulling his punches because he doesn’t want to liquefy that thing he’s punching. Not because he’s concerned about the guy, but because liquid is less effective at knocking everything behind[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Yes, Cora’s idea of gearing up for the big fight is proper battle armor. Granted, it’s mostly force fields full of <strike>food coloring</strike> holograms, but her for-serious battle getup has extra projectors and she also teleports in extra hard points[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Okay so, the pacing of this page is a little weird. If you read the panel order literally, it might seem like Maxima waited for the Fel ship the hit the atmosphere and dropped all the way down and started[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I forgot to put the brackets around the all the dialog, except panel 6, but everyone is speaking in some alien language or another. Okay, bear with me, I know I talk about Universal Translators a lot, but I’m not[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

MEANWHILE… I wasn’t trying to be lazy when it came to drawing the inside of their ships. I was actually thinking about my lack of visionary futurism when it comes to designing stuff that I stick in the comic, like[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I hate when I think of jokes that require me to draw weird stuff I have no idea how to draw. Well, I’ve never drawn an alien space station before Grrl Power, or an alien food court, or the inside[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Fun fact, your brain burns about 20% of a resting human’s calorie needs. Roughly 300 a day – not a LOT like Dabbler is saying, she’s emphasizing her point for a soundbite oriented press. Her point is 300 calories ain’t[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I think the press will ultimately have a bit more of a negative reaction to being lied to about Dabbler’s origin, but it was always the plan to come clean about it once existence of aliens was undeniable. It’s just[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I didn’t mean to make Suzie seem like she’s a closet furry. It would turn the running gag I have going with Sydney into a running theme for the comic. And it’s not really that kind of a comic. Unless[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Needless to say, Cora’s photosynthesis would be more effective if she had more surface area. I guess she could have mechanical arms with solar panels or uh… wait, that wouldn’t help feed her. Uh, panels of translucent gel full of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Ooh! Press conference bombshell! Okay, before everyone gets too excited, Cora’s first line on the next page is, “Well, mostly.” For further explanation, you’ll have to actually wait for the actual page. The great filters Cora talks about, if it’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Cora is definitely not a diplomat. There are better ways of telling a world that no one is coming for them because their toys all suck, but I guess she’s just getting straight to the point. I’ve talked about some[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Welcome to what’s informally known as the Archon Professional Ladies League. Informally, because no one calls it that. And definitely no one calls it “Lunch with my bitches.” But sometimes Max likes to sit down with educated professional ladies and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Dr. Frost has you in her chair, Sydney. She’s not going to prescribe you some drugs and kick you out of the door. There’s a paper begging to be written and published in American Psychological Association Journal. There are a[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I had intended to write this slightly more seriously, then I thought of this and it amused me. Hopefully no one is too upset this session is going in a Sydney-esque direction. Dr. Frost may be able wrangle her back[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Happy 4th to everyone who celebrates it! This is the 750th page of Grrl Power! Arbitrary round numbers FTW! Thank you guys so much for all your support over the years. It’s so awesome to be able to share these[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Peggy once mentioned to Sydney that after a while, one can zone out while exercising. This isn’t exactly what she meant. Sydney’s barely upright at this point. You know how some racetracks are in a loop, but they have that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Not everyone had a bad night of sleep. Well, okay, maybe they didn’t quite get enough sleep, but it wasn’t a bad night. A little awkward in the aftermath. And the afterhiro. Hur hur. Ug. That actually sounds kind of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney doesn’t frequent psychologists, but she’s been around them a few times in her life. Notably when she was younger and got diagnosed with ADHD, and a few follow-ups to tweak her meds. She’s being progressive about asking for help[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Hmm. I wrote a follow up page to this one, but in a rare moment of editorial discipline, I decided you guys could probably figure this one out, and I could just move on. Besides, that lets me cut back[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...
