Grrl Power #1081 - Airspeed velocity of an unladen Maxima...
🕑 Added 2022-09-05 10:00:07 +0000 UTCThank you for the support! You guys are awesome!
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 and portals and giant hot glass disks impacted her service. Probably a little from each column. I'd have drawn Max holding a sat phone, but those don't exactly fit in the back pocket of women's jeans without creating a bit of a lump, so I guess she's just got her cell phone. Presumably her phone is some custom job with a titanium frame or something, but I don't know if you could fit a military grade antenna in something like that without jacking up the rest of the internals.
Luckily the team has two supersonic fliers. Tactically, it's probably unwise to have them both in the same place if they're away from the base. Like, what if some super decided to knock over a bank in Seattle? Archon didn't advertise this excursion though, so your average mid-level super thug wouldn't know the optimal time to start causing trouble. Even Arianna is unsure about how to publicize this, as Deus seems to insist on being a controversial figure every time he gets in front of a camera.

Heh, little bitty boob window ala Power Girl.

Navigating is no problem... just head LEFT! ^_^

Given Max's observed energy output at (ahem) max, she can probably head out of atmosphere, cook up to interplanetary speeds on a powered suborbital route, and re-enter atmo in a half-hour time frame. She'll set off every single alarm watching space and US airspace there is, and her re-entry will be a second sun, but she can cut off a lot of time compared to staying in atmo. (Navigating would also be a challenge.)
