Comic for Thursday, June 9th
**NOTE: Monday’s comic delayed! Next update Thursday. Will make up the comic at some point. Probably.**
Moving continues to be a roiling pile of me not updating comics. I have internet now at least. Mostly done.
Merciless, after he said not to shoot her he still got swatted. Then again, I’m not sure she’d be fond of being called a kid either, though really who knows on that one yet. Not that shooting her probably would have been highly effective. It didn’t work out very well for the IDS last time. I should probably put that in related comics.
The two in the last two panels are coming out from around the car, it’d be off to their right a little here. I had wanted to get a shot with it, but it didn’t really make sense and would have involved a whole extra perspective in an already fairly complicated scene (by my pretty limited drawing standards 😀 ).
How advisable exploding things near a car containing someone your supposed to be saving is debatable (well, not really, but we’ve seen little evidence so far that she’s not reckless..), but the explosion is far less potent the last time we saw her use the same ability, or even when we saw Tyler rebound it on Otte; in the first case, she’d used all six of her calculations instead and the second incident Otte had used two, and Tyler very likely did something in the process of sending it back to him.
Related Comics.
- Ila using the ethereal construct of a green hand.
- Ila using the ‘red-sphere-lightning-magic-that-causes-explosions’
- Otte using the ‘red-sphere-lightning-magic-that-causes-explosions’.
- Other reference to Orish. An Orish warmage isn’t a bad guess considering. I mean, wrong, but her hair is almost blonde and her eyes are almost red, sort of like the one we’ve seen before…
Next comic where?? -.-
Tonight or tomorrow. I’m not dead, but unfortunately moving turned into more of a hectic mess then previously accounted for, and lack of buffers rears it’s ugly head.
Not going to get it posted tonight. Will be up Thursday though.
Will detail more in notes. Got behind then compounded the delay with some bad production decisions (lack of internet on my PC made me decide to do it on my Surface, but it’s been too long since I used that, so I abandoned that and went back to the PC after I got internet… yeah). Plus still moving crap between houses and work, etc, excuse, complain(tm).
Seems like the green hand is for dealing with small fry, the red exploding for more serious threats. But she never used the red exploding on Mium? Does she not consider him a threat or does she not actually want to kill him?
she did try once… and he disrupted the spell. then she tried a massivly over powered rock… and he disintegrated it. so mium is about equal to her. tho infafct he has tecnicaly beat her twice.
They both can do some interesting things. Unfortunately for Ila, Mium’s interesting things tend to counter her’s.
“Let a shield be your umbrella.”–and vice versa. 🙂
So is Rovak Stas Orish, then?
I love your choice of sound effects/attacks, here. It reminds me of THIS PAGE (Swivel?). ^^
Yeah the sound effects make those panels a lot funnier. For awhile there were no sound effects, glad there are sound effects again. Comics need a certain level of silly.
I think the bearded Avon lab guy said that Rovak was an Orish warmage previously, which is why Mir wanted to dissect him(or something?).
Yup, you’re right about Rovak. I had forgotten–good catch. 🙂
Indeed.
waiiiit… (checks back a few pages) oh yes there where 4 of them.
and for some reason “now you will feel the power of this fully functioning prototype GWAhahahahaha”
It’s probably what’d be in her thought bubble 😉
I’d guess she’s more annoyed at being called ‘it’ than ‘a kid’. >.<
Yeah, well, that was the guy that got flicked. He had the flicking coming. The other one still got swatted 😛
