Grrl Power #1079 - Guess who played Deity difficulty level in Civ?
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!This page is not especially visually exciting, but I needed to speed up the production of the page a bit to make up for my weekend trip last week. Normally that middle panel would have cut to a very sooty Sydney, but we'll catch up with her soon.De...
Grrl Power #1078 - Disaster, more like... dismathter
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!You know, sometimes the titles to these pages are funny references or portmanteaus or repurposed idioms, and sometimes they're "I can't think of anything better and it's been an hour." It's the equivalent of browsing Netflix for...
Grrl Power #1077 - Coup de grâce appropriation
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!To answer some questions about Darude's powers. He can control sand, and also transform into it, IF he has at least his own mass of sand to… hide in, sort of. A lot of superpowers (and magic spells) rely on semantics, so the question isn't, &...
Grrl Power #1076 - Obsidian crop circle
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!"Sydney! What did you do to the desert?!""As deserts are defined by the amount of rainfall they receive... technically I didn't change anything?"So, Sydney had a bold plan, and enacted it. There's something to be said for decisi...
Grrl Power #1075 - Respect my personal space!
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Shén wèi (according to google translate) means "divine guardian" or really "divine guard" because "divine guardian" actually translates to "Shénshèng shǒuhù zhě" which isn't nearly as pithy sounding. I don'...
Grrl Power #1074 - Open door policy
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Ah, the rare no-dialog page. I almost added a "N'yah!" or something on the sword dodge, but, eh. No-dialog page instead. I usually have pretty dense dialog for a comic, and don't have a lot of space for characters flourishing. I might h...
Grrl Power #1073 - Spooky scary shapeshifters
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Hopefully people get what's happening here. I could have drawn a dotted outline of X standing opposite Chimyriad, but it turns out that not drawing people is a lot easier than drawing them.Chimyriad is a cameo character, and technically this is the...
She Hulk (plus guests) NSFW
I'm a big fan of John Byrne's run on "The Sensational She Hulk" which should be no surprise to anyone familiar with it. It was mostly a humor book, combining slice of life, law practice revolving around super powers (albeit fairly tongue in cheek) and frequently featured resurrecting...
Grrl Power #1072 - Guard Dood Dee Duty
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!So what we know about Goon Squad, AKA Ted, so far. He seems to know what happened to his clones at least after they die, but they don't seem to have any telepathic link between them. The "dress up in the enemy's armor ploy" certainly wo...
Grrl Power #1071 - Goon life. And death
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!"Hey Goose, how did you know those guys were full of weird, crunchy particles, indicating they might be some sort of expendable duplicate?""…" "Oh……… 'Kay."So yeah, the guys in the brown armor are actually a guy in b...
Grrl Power #1070 - 8-ball in the zygomatic
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!That guy she put the beat down on will probably still claim he got to second base with her."Well, then she took off her bra...""Yeah?""And then her bra... uh, touched my face...""That's not really second base.""I...
Grrl Power #1069 - They just replaced that window
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!I realize I'm doubling down on the "Digit is a maniac" joke here. I think the next time we see her it should be in the field, but given her general lack concern about "those wiggly things with the faces" that keep getting transected...
Grrl Power #1068 - And then it all went south
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Their plan wasn't... bad... but I think a lot of it revolved around getting the rooms secured (and occupants knocked out) before any alarms went off. They just didn't count on the guy who was still paying attention to his computer screen while ...
Grrl Power #1067 - Heatsink form is too effective
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Aluminum Varia randomly out-shiny-ing Maxima. I think it's cause I sampled colors from a photo of a jagged block of aluminum, so she has a bit more contrast than what I usually apply to Max's skin.No, Varia doesn't have a nigh-skintight for...
Grrl Power #1066 - No teeth for you!
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Just a quick reminder that Varia has a pronounced Bostonian accent, which is really hard to account for if she's not saying words that have an "ah" sound near the end, i.e., "Get to the cah pahk, idiot!" Or as the most famous person...
Maxima leans over a desk (NSFW)
This panel started life as a panel from the comic. A few people thought it was a good pose to turn into a nude version, and I agreed. Hopefully you enjoy the shiny, leaned over boobs. The implied Deus eye-poking is probably not canon. Probably.
Grrl Power #1065 - Knife to meet you!
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Hey, +50XP for Arianna.Tactically, this is a poor reaction. But the dude did try and burn her into ash, so... it's hard to really blame her. She's not a soldier, even if she goes jogging with them in the mornings. That said, her aim was pretty ...
Grrl Power #1064 - Bar-Be-Can't
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!So, quick review of Varia's powers. She has contact gestalt, and each person she touches gives her different powers. The person she's touching doesn't get any powers per se, but the do gain immunity to the powers that Varia gets, so if she ...
Grrl Power #1063 - Olé olé, olé olé...
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Happy 4th of July. Enjoy the fireworks...If you're a henchman participating in an assault on a base of superheroes, you gotta figure there are some pretty good benefits and/or pay. Also there's probably an extensive briefing beforehand, dependi...
Grrl Power #1062 - Jalapeño, Jalapeño, Jalapeño
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!No, Leon didn't just summon tech support.I really wanted to title this page "Zulu Zulu Zulu" because I am almost positive there is some scene in some movie or TV show somewhere in which someone sends that message, and the message means "...
Grrl Power #1061 - Late night intelligence and chill
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Getting cornered by a succubus at a party is like "Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior, Orgasms?" They might not phrase it quite like that, but you can bet the conversation will eventually veer toward the topic of how every m...
Grrl Power #1060 - Define "Trouble"
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Four hours of flying and blasting is a pretty good workout for Max. It actually pushed her limits really hard at the time, and took her a few days to recover. Firing off about 900 energy blasts in that time frame really burned a lot of... superhero cal...
Grrl Power #1059 - Coarse language and/or sand
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Instead of sticking her head in the sand, Maxima is sticking herself in, uh... his head, which is made of sand. So... aphorisms.Does this count as a gritty reboot, because she's fought this guy before and, you know... sand? Which is gritty...Anyhoo...
Grrl Power #1058 - Firehaboob
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!I wanted the sound effect on that explosion to be reminiscent of those concussion fireworks, the ones that just boom without any razzle dazzle. Honestly those are my favorite, but I've always enjoyed joint rattling bass. Generally when those go off...
Grrl Power #1057 - Combat stress huggles
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!I know it wasn't obvious from the prior page, but the incoming helis lobbed like a dozen missiles all at once. The thought being to overwhelm unknown and probably pretty advanced defenses. You know what they say, "You miss every shot that's...
Grrl Power #1056 - Dabbler cheats at Missile Command
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Dabbler: "One big shield is too much work, but I can mass produce these little ones that last a tenth of a second."Foreman: "We need something watertight."Dabbler: "Oh. That sounds boring. I'm going to make these instead."Fo...
Sydney and Parfait Wish Training
Dangit, I forgot to schedule this post. Well, here you go!Sydney's doing her best to help Parfait learn how to grant wishes, even though there are a series of escalating consequences - to our benefit, it must be said.
Grrl Power #1055 - Lifestyles of the rich and eccentric
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!I'm not going to lie, this is one of my favorite pages I've done in a while. Even despite all the fiddly background stuff. Panel 5 cracks me up every time. Just the thought of that playing out in a TV show or something. Maxima's eyes slowly...
Grrl Power #1054 - Operation dessert storm
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!If you plant the mini-bananas, would they grow mini-banana trees? Trick question! Bananas don't have seeds! That's weird to think about - all bananas are seedless. At least the modern commercially available banana is seedless. That and we'r...
Grrl Power #1053 - Enter the easifat ramlia
Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!Possibly related to today's page. BTW, the 4th panel says "Dead am I? So much the better." Or at least that's what Google translate told me. People can actually read it have said... "Eh... pretty close, actually."Please ignore a...
