Vote incentive for November posted
Instead of drawing my own vote incentive this month, I decided to hire out the job, primarily so I can spend the time I would have spent on it putting the book together*. Anyone who has read Spying with Lana, a funny and very sexy comic I have in my recommendation list (under the NSFW heading) should immediately recognize the artist I got to do this slightly compromising picture of Maxima. I marked it NSFW for some underboob. It’s not actually explicit, but a little moreso than I usually post.
Immediately after this scene, it’s possible that this happened. Or this, this, or this. You get the idea. There’s an outside chance that all that happened was this, depending very much on the situation and who it was who walked in on her.
*If anyone’s wondering, I’ve made all the corrections, and I’m building it in InDesign. It went slow at first because for the first 50 pages or so I didn’t have print ready PDFs. I just exported web ready versions out of photoshop, but now I’m past that and I should be able to finish that the next time I sit down to do it. Still have to scan some stuff and do a cover but it’s getting closer.
SuperheroThey're super, thanks for asking!
Meatspace ComicSeriously these are awesome. Check 'em out!
Not UpdatingNo longer updating or only updates sporadically, but definitely worth reading.
SeriouslySeriously you guys. If you like Grrl Power the check these out.
"Mature"Mature subject matter and occasionally something explicit but usually safe. Can't guarantee the ads are safe though.
Dongs Ahoy!Full frontal and backal. Lots of skin, sex on some or all pages, explicit or otherwise.
I have to say that Maxima’s face doesn’t have the usual lines and angles I’m used to seeing, but then in a moment like that the face is not the first place the eye goes. Not MY eye anyway . . .
:D
Well, that will be because it’s by another artist :P
Looking at that artist’s comic, it seems he only draws one face for women…
Well, the lighting/shading does have the correct angles, although the lack of hard lines is a bit disconcerting. So goes artist style, Eh?
https://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/1034 has the lines less noticeable and looks similar.
Why would she react so violently? Did she suffer some trauma in the past, like being raped?
Given that she’s supposed to be the most powerful super known in the whole world, it’s unlikely anybody could have successfully raped her. It’s more about her extreme feminism and her disdain for how most men seem to view her as some kind of exotic sex toy. Catching a peeping tom spying on her as she changes clothes – presuming that’s what’s going on there – would infuriate her.
We don’t know how early Maxima manifested her powers – the trauma could’ve happened before that, or even served as the trigger for their awakening.
Rule of funny. She wouldn’t actually kill anyone for that. Probably. She isn’t *quite* that psychotic.
She would react like that because she’s Maxima who has displayed her own version of “poor impulse control” and it’s a comic. It’s not real. There is no trauma. She’s pixels on a screen.
Don’t be like my professor that wanted everyone to find some deep and hidden meaning in Shakespeare. (He didn’t like “Shakespeare was trying to pay rent and get laid!” as motivation.)
Good writing includes making motivations and psychological profiles for all the characters – or at least for the main ones. How did she join the army? How did she get her powers? What would she do in a situation XXX?
Blowing up cities over an accidental underboob peek is as overexaggerated as possible and demands an explanation.
Obviously it’s a joke, she wouldn’t cause an extintion level event over so relatively minor an incident. The balloon thing… might have happened. Again depending on the situation. It’s possible it was filled with something other than water too. Like KY Jelly, or Honey.
Honey? And then she put him outside in a red ant nest?
No, just… you’d be sticky. Maybe that bothers me more than it would some.
or ugh….oily…….anyone else scrub with lava body wash?
She looks more mortified than mad, she might explode out of sheer embarrassment.
Yup. But I feel that would be the first expression, which would rapidly change.
If you check out footage of people being surprised, by something that makes them angry, the first reaction is always the surprised look, with the anger appearing, as they work out what has just happened.
Well, Maxima, if you’re going to get changed in an alleyway…
How many alleyways do you know of that have curtains? Most likely that is her Spartan apartment
Very nicely done. I agree with Ignoble about the lack of angles in Maxima’s face. But each artist has their own interpretation, so that is fair enough. Especially as the result is a good one. Plus the expression, tones and sheen are all spot on.
Finally, the pervert shadow is a funny reflection of us, and our behaviour, behind the 4th wall. :-D
I like it. And I wonder, will we be seeing a Sydney, Peggy or Gwen version?
The “pervert shadow,” as Yorp calls it . . .
Brad?
Potentially, the hair is the right general shape for it…
Not just the hair, the head itself is the right general shape (unless that is what you meant)
If it’s Brad then it’s possible his future is looking very bright, and I don’t think wearing shades will help much…
I do not think Maxima will over-react that badly. An appropriate response would involve rapidly pulling her shirt down (hopefully not ripping it due to the speed/strength) and a very loud dressing down about unwanted voyeurism. The peeper will survive; only his pride and eardrums will be injured.
Well it’s not so much peeping as it is “Hey Max are you in here…Whoooops!”
Gold is now my favorite color ;)
Gold is the usual standard :D
It’s always possible it’s a boyfriend (heck, could be her husband!), my initial thought was “Can I have his parking spot?”
Am I the only one who thinks that having Maxima turn in to a Barbie doll all smooth would be a good comedy bit? She gets set on fire or something along those lines her outfit burns off but she keeps fighting and everyone is just staring at her.
Yes I know this sounds dirty and creepy but I felt the same about colossus when he armors up I always thought he would be all smooth down there like a ken doll. I kind of see Maxima the same way in a comedy sense.
You know, I’ve been looking at that little square advertising the new vote incentive, the close up of Maxima’s face without all the usual angles and lines, and wondering who she reminded me of. I think I have it now!
Am I the only one who thinks this version of her looks rather like Princess Leia?
So, according to human anatomy, Maxima has no nipples? #SuperNipples
One’s still under the shirt, the other is somewhere behind her one hand. Pulling her shirt up like that would lift things quite a bit and she has ample enough underboob to account for all that’s shown.
I don’t think you’ve ever seen naked boobs before, Mike. Yet, you might be right if Maxima has had breast implants, but I seriously doubt that’s her style. Does the Golden Goddess have a dirty secret?…
areola’s visible, looks like the nip was just airbrushed out
Y’know, the guy walking in on her could be her boyfriend. And they might happily embrace each other instead of nuking the planet.
I’m feeling romantic ^_^;
for some reason i cant see the picture :(
Uh, clear your cache maybe?
You need to click on the mini-picture, of Maxima, at the top of this page, it has a link to the voting page, on the top webcomics site, where the picture is displayed as a vote incentive.
If it is that mini-picture which is not showing, then go to the main comic and locate the side bar, with the voting link in it. Possibly that side bar might be right at the bottom of your window, if you are zoomed in, or otherwise do not have a large window display.
Again there is one link via a picture, but if you are having problems with that, there is an orange text link too. The voting process asks you to identify a picture, with multi-choice options. To prevent bot voting. You will find the picture beyond that.
DaveB, you may wish to clarify any copyright issues, given that you have a third party involved.
Typically it is understood that voting incentives are provided on the basis of being free to download, for personal, non-commercial use, with the copyright otherwise being retained by the artist. Do you have any agreement in place? Or should this be considered to be provided for viewing purposes only?
The picture is fine for anyone to turn into their avatar or whatever. I suppose I should have put a URL on the bottom or something though.
Thanks for the update. :-)
If anyone is interested there’s a YouTube of him making the picture.

BTW I seem to have missed getting this picture because of Win 10 issues anyway I can get it because I can’t find it.
Chtillia? Sounds like Cthulhu’s sister.
Whoop, misplaced. Both this and daily comments were at 43.
so where’s the image?
I’ve updated the link on the thumbnail to go to the DeviantArt page now.
Funny you should mention WtC, as i rather enjoy it. Got it on kindle without really looking at cover cause it’s next in line, started reading. and then i got to the chapter from sydney’s narrative. brain hit full stop, reread the first few pages, skimmed back to look at cover…well holy fuck XD
I motion to have Pixels flavor text updated with “Likes to get Spanked”
I speak french. “Viol” means rape… so yeah Sydney is even more right than she intended.
Who else here think that Sydney and Bladder HACKER’s powers are of a similar originating place (ie Alien) and probabley originate for the same race. Even the color spectrum while slightly different is close. Because of course neither one of them are Supers powers.
Thank you for sharing useful knowledge. I would love to learn about it too
It was the next one in line, so I got it on Kindle without really looking at the cover. I then started reading it. I then got to the part from Sydney’s story.
