Grrl Power

Occasionally some of the characters (and me) remember that Archon is supposed to be a military organization. Maxima isn’t big on all of the rigorous discipline and marching up and down the square, but I’m fairly certain that generally one[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I thought about attributing Super Massive/Suck Hole’s speed to actual gravitational time dilation, but he’d need to be putting out a lot of gravity to for it to register as super speed. Like, if you’re standing or sitting, relativity is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

You can’t blame Varia for having second thoughts about checking out her gestalt interaction with Death Toll. Going from having no powers to absolutely wrecking the oppo like she is here, then back to nada. Not that touching DT is[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Salesgirl: Hello and welcome to SuperMart, how can I help you? Maxima: Yes, I need a hair tie that can withstand at least 300 gravities. Salesgirl: I see. Can your hair withstand 300 gravities? Maxima: It can. Salesgirl: Goodness. I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

“Once I enter, I’ll want a distraction.” “I could increase my mass, fall through the floor and destroy whatever’s underneath.” “That’s always your suggestion.” “And you contribution is to be gold and punch things. We all have our niches.” “Touché?”[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I haven’t actually decided, but I think this guy might be trying to impress/seduce Max? He’s definitely planning on fighting her, but I’m leaning toward this guy being just a little too impressed with himself and thinking “While I’m proving[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I, too, am disappointed in Varia’s… I don’t know, ethics? Honestly the very first draft of this scene in my head went down a very different way. I won’t say what that was, cause this probably isn’t the last time[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Will they unleash a superpowered supernova? Merge into a Tyrant type creature? Or will Varia just attain the ability to come up with dumb pun supranyms? That one would be less useful than Bird Radar, cause I can think of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Usually when displaying your captured superheroines, you’re supposed to have them face-out. Maybe a plaque of some sort. And depending on the kind of comic it is, their spandex outfit will be placed on a mannequin next to the display,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

The thing about portal travel over that distance would be the sudden change in the pollen profile. Suddenly discovering hitherto unknown allergies, and not gradually like on a road trip. One breath would be all the pollutants you’re used to,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Heh, okay, so a lot of you guys spotted For Whom The Death Tolls immediately on the last page. I mean, he wasn’t hiding, I guess I was banking on the fact that there’s a bunch of other people with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Okay, there’s a lot of confusion regarding Varia’s powers in the comments. That’s fair, they’re not so straightforward. So, when she touches someone, Varia gets a power (or a power unlocks, no one is quite sure how it works). The[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

In order of desirable pretzel condiments: Gross ballpark nacho cheese. Yellow mustard. Yummy fondue made from cheese not designed to normally exist in a semi-liquid form. Alfredo sauce. Whole grain mustard. Whole grain mustard AND Alfredo sauce – Yum! There’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Happy The Day After Christmas! For some of us, that’s when we strike the tree and decorations and for some of us, that time is mid-March. As I recall we usually left that stuff up till… New Year’s Eve Eve?[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

The covered faces is really a massive security flaw. It’s literally the #1 mention on the Evil Overlord’s List. I understand the want for faceless minions, though. An army of faceless goons is more scary than a bunch of dude’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Harem should use the map to find the Info Desk, where she can ask about the secret backdoor used to sneak the rest of the team in. It makes sense that if you’re designing the Death Star, it’s a reasonable[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

This handyman is looking to get promoted to security. He practices his taser quickdraw in front of the mirror and phrases like “I.D. please.” and “Move along rebel scum.” and “These aren’t the droids we’re looking for.” Although good maintenance[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

When Jiggawatt teleports through wiring, it’s often really bad for the wires, unless she’s traveling through industrial grade power lines. 12-14 gauge residential wiring is not rated for 1 Jiggawatt, much less 1.21, and it’s a good idea to replace[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

This is a weird page, and drawing isometric stuff is harder than I thought it would be. The picture is supposed to be a simplified model of the base, like a LIDAR scan, not a photograph. Chimyriad is hanging her[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Detla has applied to be on the team, but hasn’t completed all the basic training and courses needed for field duty. She’s going along but will remain onboard the Osprey for security once the team disembarks, along with Peggy and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

These guys really are a liability. He’s stretched too thin, but when upper management says they want two guards on every door, the correct response should be “Well now, do you want one guard per door, each of them having[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you so inclined! Enjoy your turkey comas. Honestly, the security here is pretty terrible. Any cell that you can’t see into allows for shenanigans. It’s known that Zeph isn’t a super, so they didn’t stick[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Edit: Okay, I have to cop to it. I straight up forgot that Sydney’s glasses auto translate and give her subtitles. I have no excuse for that, but my in-world justification on this page is that there’s a half dozen[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I know what you’re thinking. “Of Couscous it’s Delicious” is barely an acceptable pun in English, and the newscaster was speaking French, being translated into English via closed captioning, and who knows what language the actual food truck’s name was[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I hope this page makes sense to everyone. It seems fairly straightforward to me, but then, I wrote it, so it’s hard for me to judge. Anvil isn’t covering her head out of a sense of honoring the dominant religion[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

As I was drawing this page my white guilt gland made me wonder if making an “African themed” team of superheroines was a tiny bit racist, but even as my “Hmm” gland was chewing on it, my “Duh” gland was[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Looking at this page just before I publish it, I realize that I did a poor job of introducing “Lioness.” You can see her in the last panel of the previous page, but the way this page plays out, I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Sydney didn’t read ahead in the script or anything, she just guessed that if a smaller country is going to have some supers passing through, they might have a task or two they could use help with. She didn’t consider[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Okay, before you’re all “I don’t think Maxima would tell them to just take the day off,” Anvil explains on the next page. Sydney’s smart enough to know that while some of her contributions to the team extend beyond the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

A lot of you more or less guessed the same thing as Dabbler here. Using your weird artifacts with no detectable power source to output massive amounts of energy? Maybe you’re draining the batteries or wearing down the capacitors. Or[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’ve lived in Texas for 40 years and to this day if someone says “Texas” my first thought is of desert and cactus. Granted, I’m old enough that when I was a kid, there were still cowboy shows on TV.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Yup, cleavage of holding. You guys guessed it on the previous page. I mean, really the only possibilities were that or she just had something stuck down her bra like women sometimes do. Not that the succubus wearing a strapless[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

(whoops, I was up past midnight posting this, and my dumb ass still scheduled it for “the next day” AKA Friday.) I think some of you were looking forward to Sydney’s meandering speech, and maybe it’s a missed opportunity, but[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

So finally we get to the page I decided to delay until after showing Maxima returning to base. You can see why I delayed it, as I’m depicting evening in Galytn now, so it would have looked like Maxima’s return[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Most jobs don’t often provide the opportunity to toss your concussed boss behind the nearest piece of furniture. It’s the little things. I think people underestimate the difficulty in copying someone else’s voice – for shapeshifters I mean. It depends[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Back to the regular coloring for now. I’m probably going to experiment with it over the next few pages. I think the flat cell colors were nice, but would have benefitted from at least one highlights pass. I’ll find the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Now that Arianna has gotten past her “knife hucking reaction phase,” she’s had time to stew in the staff saferoom and really concentrate on freaking out over how really super close she came to losing all of her skin and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

There’s definitely some wires crossed in Sydney’s brain, right? So yeah. Cthillia is an anthropomorphic beholder of some flavor. That’s “beholder” not “Beholder(C)” because Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast/D&D owns the copyright on “Beholders(C).” I thought they also held the copyright[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

In defense of whoever comes up with the codenames (or, supranyms) for Galytn supers, they do speak at least eight languages over there (at least they do in Mozambique) and that’s before introducing Alar and Chiktr. Presumably English is also[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

Galytn does have a lot of supers per capita, (Don’t worry, we’re not going to spend the next 300 pages meeting them all, hah hah.)so putting out a giant fire is going to be less of a challenge for them[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...

I’m not actually certain if this sequence takes place slightly before Harem left her message for Max, or if relaying a cell message to that part of Africa has some technical challenges or if all the cosmic energies recently unleashed[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry...
