Grrl Power #112 – Hot Beefcake Injection
I was hoping to get some more work done on the vote picture this weekend but dang, this page was a lot of work. Worth it though – I love the panel with all the Harems, and I guess the beefcake lineup, which is more or less the point of the page. It occurred to me that there are a lot of webcomics out there that spend less time on their entire comic that I did on just the mini comic at the bottom of this page. I don’t know why I’m such a glutton for punishment, but I suppose I could produce a 5x a week comic if it was a flat colored strip like that. I thought about making it the vote incentive just to freshen it up, but eh, why make you jump through the hoops?
Thanks for all the input on Peggy’s sidearm on the previous comic. There were lots of suggestions, but if you still want to contribute, please add it to the previous page’s comments, I’ll still see it.
There was a ton of rambling Tarantino-esque dialog I wanted to include on this page that began to introduce these guys, but I had to cut it all to make everything fit. I’ll save it for later I guess, it was more important this page began with “So are there any guys?” and ending on Sydney drooling over the railing.
About the chokers for the guys. I mean… cool tactical throat mics. I’m not a fan chokers on guys in the first place, but if a dude has a skinny neck like Math then I can overlook it I guess, but on Hiro and the other guy with the huge neck it looked really dumb, partially because their traps meet their neck almost higher up than the bottom of their jaws, so it would have had to be really skinny and/or wavy. I’ll have to figure something else out for them, maybe one that only wraps part of the way around from the back or something.
So yeah there are guys on the team – I was holding off on introducing most of them till this page so readers got the same first look as Sydney. We’ll be seeing them intermingling from here on out, but don’t worry, the girls are still the main characters. Speaking of which I need to formally introduce Jiggawatt so I can finally include her in the Who’s Who.
I love this page. I think that first shot of Hiro is the best he’s ever looked, and Stalwart making the o.O face as he sees his shirt is gone but his tie’s still there is hilarious :D The Row O’Harem is pretty awesome too~
Why WOULDN’T you get blueberry soda? Does it really exist? If not it should. I haven’t seen blueberry soda anywhere near where I live, do you have to special order it or something?
Look up Old Soaker Bluberry Soda from the Atlantic Brewing Company. They ship anywhere.
Also a flavour of Ramune (The best flavour).
If you’re in the US, and have a Cracker Barrel restaurant near you, they may have some in their store. I’m going to look for one myself, the next time we go to one–blueberry sounds like an interesting soda flavor!
Wow did not realize that you had two of the male recruits show up this far back
Saaame. I only just noticed.
Isn’t one of those guys made of spiders?\
we don’t know that for sure. he may have just been messing with Sydney.
Blueberry soda does exist. You can get it in Maine a lot, particularly in Hancock County. It tastes great.
I just realized that at least a couple of these guys are new recruits that we meet later on! :D
I’d like to note that by all known laws of biology those men are incredibly dehydrated. You can’t get that kind of definition without losing almost all your water weight.
If i’m not mistaken, Hiro actually has an choker (kinda) when he goes to battle in future episodes, but i really don’t know why Stalwart don’t have anything like it.
The girls are having a field day with this one.
