To view the full-size version, left-click the image once, then right-click and open in a new tab/view. At least that seems to work for some people.
Based on some of the comments, I think some people would have liked to have seen at least one more poker page in order to determine if Sydney is actually good at poker or if she's a disaster. I kind of like leaving it ambiguous, but I think it's fair to say that her skill at the game is "capricious."
People in cubicles don't generally get sprayed with water 4 stories off the ground. But they sometimes have to use Excel, so it's a wash.
Note that Jabber and Sydney don't have safety lines, because, well, Jabber's a super, and a lot of things have to go wrong for her to get hurt on that climbing tower. Sydney obviously has the Fly Ball. It's not like she couldn't slip and crack her jaw on a grip below her and knock herself out, but there's water at the bottom of the tower. Yes, she might wang herself on one of those pipes sticking out of the wall as well. She really probably should have a safety line.
This is the beginner side, BTW. All of those hand grips are pretty meaty. I've only tried rock wall climbing a few times, but some of the grips the have on the advanced walls don't even look like grips. They're like lumps on the wall you have use walnut crushing grip strength on, or a little lip you have to stick two fingertips under, then use near superhuman hook powers to hold yourself in place for a half a second while you grab another ledge the thickness of a magazine. And not a beefy magazine, either like Vogue back in its heyday. More like an issue of "Extremely Thin Magazine Aficionado."
Jabber, BTW, is using Squirrel-Monkey Fu on this page. Her power is more about what she thinks a martial arts style should be rather than what it actually is or if it even exists. In a way, she's a little like Maxima. In that Max has a power pool she can draw from, Jabber has a pool of powers she can grab and use so long as she can justify them under some sort of loose theme. She isn't consciously aware of a list of powers she uses, it's all instinctual.
Someone needs to sit her down and get her to play a Dragon Ball Z video game.

My favorite part is how Jabber is just so casual about this... the wall is just a playground for her. Also, I love that, despite how hard and demanding this is, Sydney is putting her all into it. She's working harder than any two other people, despite her ADD. I'm impressed.

Magic water repellent feature added to glasses?

Jabber doing Martial Arts Tea Ceremony FTW!

Ok, I are confussed. How does Sydney see with water pouring over her glasses?

She really needs to see some Ranma 1/2, I agree with Val. Also, time-skip much? We getting through basic the easy and hopefully less painful way?

Even with this being the easy one, it's obvious Sydney's progressed a lot in her physical fitness since back in the pages where she cursed Batman.
Heck with Dragonball Z, get that girl some Ranma 1/2, where everything up to french cuisine is a martial art.

NPI on "wash"?

Hey, now, Sydney's sweet ass needs some lovin' too!

I am jealous of Jabber's bangin' abs 😄
