Grrl Power #515 – Amazon delivery
When you have a team full of people that can do what they did to that poor tank, equipping the Osprey with rockets was probably a difficult line item expense to justify, but Max is all about diversity. Still, it doesn’t cost the team $400K when Max levels a secret evil layer or Heatwave melts Glacier Man, but it’s nice to have the option.
#MakeComics The rubble in panel 1 took so long to draw. There’s so many little rocks and bricks, and then the final step was to add a bunch of dust – cause when you smash a ton of concrete, there’s a lot of dust. :P I think I watched the entirety of City Slickers while working on that panel. Well I watched this spoof first, which is what prompted the desire to watch the movie. But I’m getting a lot better at drawing rubble, and that’s pretty cool.

"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.
Who wants to bet that the husk might soon have kinetic absorption powers?:)
I mean, not every team member can blow stuff up. Having missiles as a back up makes sense. What if Achilles is the one responding? He has perfect defense, but if he needs to blow something up then he really needs those missiles.
if Achilles hits hard enough, something’s gonna change shape, since it won’t be Achilles, then whatever he hits gets redesigned while in use. which might be painful to it. so his defense can be an offensive weapon as well.
You make a particularly interesting point that gives Achilles a power multiplier. Currently his only ancillary super power is his ‘super strength’. Which is nothing more than normal strength but being weilded by someone who need not fear ripping muscles, or having a hernia. So he can push himself safely about 50% further than a normal person’s effective strength.
But this will stack with the point you made, even when he is just punching or otherwise striking a foe. His blows will be disproportionately damaging, even when factoring in his super strength. Wearing boxing gloves, boots, helmet and both knee and elbow padding will be absolutely essential for him. But to protect his sparring partner, not himself!
Airdropping the kinetic absorber is one of those things you just don’t think of till someone says it and then it just seems like it should be the standard tactic for every fight.
They should deploy Anvil with a missile or a divebomber. Faster and more precise than just jumping from a Osprey and as a bonus her kinetic absorbing powers will get a boost from the impact.
Good idea.
Or even better give her something with controls, so that she is not at the mercy of a guidance system or separate pilot. Giving her override capabilities if Anvil gets closer, to the target, spots laser claws and decides that homing in on it is not actually such a great plan.
Give Anvil one of those paragliding suits base jumpers use – maintains speed, but gives alot of control if you use it right. Plus, thin enough material not to interfere with her kinetic absorbsoin (which makes her one of the only people with a practical reason to be the stereo typed half naked super female)
You mean like this?
Brilliant suggestion Sel, on all counts. And terrifying stunt you linked Guesticus. Was that landing in a quadzillion cardboard boxes filled with bubble wrap?
One designed to be glided down feet first?
I wonder if she has stiletto heels made of some special material for when deadly force is authorized.
Negative. That would be a very bad idea. That might give it enough strength to hurt Maxima… which would then be far worse.
