Grrl Power #90 – Grand Mal Willies
I figure that working in a comic book shop, restocking, opening boxes, Sydney’s had her share of papercuts, and of course she conveys her dislike of them in her usual subdued fashion. Fortunately she has remarkable recovery time.
Yeah, and 13 panels on a page? Definitely not the ideal way to do a comic page. I could almost break out each row and post it as a separate strip M-Th or something. Well, we got through all the orbs anyway, maybe I can decompress just a little.
I got some fan art from AndyO! of TMI Comic, which is often a little NSFW so use your own judgement. I’m sure more than a few of you already read it. When the comic that showed Sydney’s predilection for spicy food came up, there were a few who noted the similarity with Ace.
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 don’t remember exactly when the gold digger style vote incentive went up but the fact that you got something from fred perry to put up speaks volumes to me. Cudo’s to that particular piece of bait and sydney rarely looks hotter.
If the orbs are spaceship tools, one of them could make it so their bearer can go out into space without a spacesuit. Might also work in under water conditions.
Unless Dave states that these are all of the orbs, there is the possibility that other orbs are hidden at other locations around the world. (Sydney doesn’t have a complete set.) That might explain why the two don’t seem to do anything.
locator orbs, there is two of them so you can triangulate where the others are
I thought the exact same thing!
Maybe one of them could be a healing stone?
We are about to see… There might be a lot of lumps coming
Wow! What that font`s name is?
Love your memes, and i finally caught up with the comic, in an hour may i add. now off to youtube to find a homestuck reference
perhaps one of the orbs is a sentient guide that has refused to talk to her, or its two contradicting guides (like shoulder angel devil) and they can’t figure her out enough to think they can manipulate her
LOL
for some strange reason mental Image of Excel saga, shoulder angel arguing with shoulder devil, pulling out a gun and shooting her (then getting arrested by shoulder cop for killing shoulder devil).
Sydney – I hear voices in my head and they’re arguing!
How about one is a technical manual the other generates tools. Since Sydney is not near something that the technical manual covers that need repairing, the orbs aren’t doing anything.
i have a couple of remarks for you dave.
First, i’m sure i’ve seen the symbols of the 2 “non-functionning” orbs somewhere. I still can’t remember where and when, but i’m sure those are real existing symbols in life.
Second i notice the lattice effect on the force field where the foam block touch it. It reminds me of the hexagonal ripple that appear on a AT field from evangelion when it bleed off the impact of an attack. Is it similar?
By the way your comic is AWESOME, please continue.
It might be similar, but if it is it’s unintentional. I was farting around in Illustrator until I came up with a pattern I liked. I’m sure I’m not the first person ever to stumble across that pattern though. You’ll get a better look at it in a few pages, then you can tell me.
I can’t wait for Sydney to meet Dabbler. DaveB, you should start taking bets who’s got the shorter attention-span.
Granted, both have the attention-span of a nutty squirrel (see JollyJack’s CollectedCurios for four examples), but who’s got the shorter?
Be awesome if she grabs the flight orb to keep from bouncing around the room. Can imagine that’d earn her some points in the respect column.
when will you update? :O
around 6 am Central Time every monday.
I like the Malian tool kit idea.
I can see eight armed illithid using these sphears.
The two iteam a space cadet needs is scanner, and life support.
What is the chance Syd saw right through the illusions on the two bank robbers. But she doesn’t know that.
One of my first speculations is that those spheres were part of an alien survival gear stash. And that maybe one day the owners may come looking for that some day. Rather like how the owners of the Blue Beetle’s armor came looking one day.
ROFLMAO just got the I am eenweencible part, thats Boris from james bond movie goldeneye just before he gets cover in liquid nitrogen, at least thats who it reminds me of :D
Ding!
what up with the glyphs/runes/sigils/marks on the two unknown orb, they remind me of things
it almost looks like V’s on the red one so maybe some sort of veiwtiful joe transformation?
DAMN! I’M UPSET THAT I DIDN’T START READING THIS COMIC EARLIER.
Ok 1. Those mystery obstacles have alot more floating symbols than the other orbs, as far as I can tell. Wonder what they do.
2. I get the feeling Max is looking forward to unleashing some pent up rage on that field. Most of which was caused by Sydney lol
