Grrl Power #928 - This is an ebullient citizen's arrest
🕑 Added 2021-03-18 10:01:01 +0000 UTCThanks so much for your support! Like, seriously, you guys.
To view the full-size version... left-click, right-click, new tab. You guys have it figured out by now.
And we come full circle, back to the alien tourists who launched this whole escapade. We're almost wrapped up with this storyline, as I know a few of you are having Sydney withdrawal, myself included.
Uh... yeah. Not sure what else to say about this one. I doubt NYC storm drains are tour-worthy. Well, maybe pinky there is a xenoarcheologist. That would make almost any artificial structure pretty interesting to her. Who knows, maybe that whole tour group are all students? Well, I suppose if anyone did, it'd be me, but honestly I just wanted a bunch of aliens wandering around Times Square, so fill in whatever story you like for them. I actually imagined a bunch of them are just streamers and wanted some exclusive new content for their UniverseTube channels, and the rest of them are the kind of people who go on vacation expressly for the purpose of loading up three dozen slide carousels in order to entertain/bore their friends and families into comas with insipid slide shows.
Kind of out of nowhere, Star Justice 12 will likely be out this Friday, barring any last second editorial issues. It'll be available at Michael-Scott Earl's website. SJ 11 came out nearly 3 years ago, and it's one of my favorite series of all time, so I've been waiting for this one for a while. There wasn't any big kickstarter for it, MSE is just writing and releasing them, I guess to test how direct sales do vs a big pre-funding campaign. I'm hoping it goes well, even though he plans on wrapping the series at 14 or 15.
Star Justice is on of those books I very nearly passed over. I had seen it on my recommended list on Amazon for a few weeks, then one day thought, eh, I'll give it a shot. Looking at my kindle Device and Content list tells the rest of the story. I bought the 1st book Nov 25, 2017, then didn't read it right away. Guess I had other stuff in the queue. I'm guessing I started reading SJ1 on about Jan 13 or 14, because I bought the second book on Jan 15, then books 3-8 on Jan 18th. Obviously I was hooked. Then, amazingly, book 9 came out like the day before I finished #8, but then I was caught up and had to wait like everyone else. I'm just glad I didn't have to wait for book 6. Yeah, if you've read book 5, you know. There was SOMETHING of a cliffhanger. That was not a productive week for me. Kind of surprised I didn't miss posting a page, come to think of it.

Maybe it’s the color or retro, but Pinky reminds me of Neek from Explorers. Either way, love her design.

Sounds more like "don't try and leave" to me.

Cora's lack of jurisdiction relates to humans and to the use of ordinance. As far as citizen's arrests go... I'd guess if it would be a legal citizen's arrest on Fracture Station, and the person being arrested is not a Terran either by birth or naturalization, it's legal for a non-Terran to do it on Terra. That having been said, authorities on Terra may prefer to do some non-citizen arresting, which, as I understand it, generally is considered to trump citizen's arrest here.

Dave needs to keep this one on Earth for a while. Too cute, too nice to let go. Get her a job as Dabbler's intern or something...
martin leske
"you should ungo" sounds like a life threat...
OH! I wonder are they going to be stop by viewing "My most beautiful self". Hahahahahaha, if looks could kill, well close enough.
Stephen Gilberg
For a moment, I thought she was accusing Lapha of looking up her dress.
Stephen Gilberg
I wonder how long it took Dabbler. She's a genius by human standards.
Kizik Ucalegon
Good old uTube.

If Cora doesn’t exactly have jurisdiction, can non-locals make citizens arrests? Advanced alien tech suggests... yes.
FeyOne
I'm guessing that they are part of a defensive array of some sort. She activated them when she was lifted, and she is keeping them activated as she has identified that she is talking with criminals.
Thomas Dorner
I wonder why the ankle bracelets are not glowing / translucent in panel 2. Mistake or are those some devices that activate under certain circumstances?

If Pinkie has gotten that good with English without a translator in just the short time she's been exposed to the language she must be some kind of genius. let's see her take both of these guys down without even trying.
Stan
Citizen's arrest would be awesome to see. I would also like the "practicing of the English" added to the possible alien girl spread.
