Grrl Power #1007 – On the origin of MacGuffins
Okay. If I was reading some comic and it took 1,000 pages for them to get around to “where did you get your amazing MacGuffins,” that would strike me as an oversight both on the characters’ part, and the authors. This is definitely something that should have been tackled within an hour of Sydney revealing them. I mean, they should have had her tell them exactly where she got them, and within an hour there should have been surveyors and researchers and archeologists on a plane.
So that’s on me Arc-LIGHT.
In my defense, I kept thinking of other funny stuff and kept forgetting to get around to this.
I’d like to point out that the third “cough” doesn’t have the little splash marks around it, meaning she’s actually saying the word “cough,” which is funny to me and also definitely a sign of innocence.
As many of you pointed out under the previous page, Wearing the Cape 9 is actually out. I’m a dumbass and had the wrong tab open last week when I went to post. So… yay! Another WtC novel!
Tamer: Enhancer 2 – Progress Update: Getting Proofed!
Still getting proofed. God damned hyphens. Or is it ‘God-damned hyphens.’ Because the word ‘hyphens’ is adjectivically modified by ‘damned’ but the damned is modified by ‘god’ and ‘hyphens’ isn’t modified by ‘god.’ Or maybe it is? I honestly don’t know. And if I type ‘a hundred and twenty five’ instead of ‘a hundred and twenty-five’ then surely no one can crack my code. LOOK UPON MY CYPHER YE MIGHTY ENIGMA AND WEEP!
This month’s vote incentive guest stars Lana of Spying with Lana. One of my own secret agents, Pixel, is trying to assist, with various levels of success and… nudity. Well, in the Patreon versions. The Vote Incentive will give you a pretty good idea of what might go down. Here’s a dedicated post in case you want to comment.
Check out Spying with Lana. Their current vote incentive features a certain gold-plated glamazon. Also it’s a funny comic with tons of skin.
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
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 honestly think it’s better this way. I like that it’s been this unknown and now they’re like hmm.. Earlier on there would be too much temptation to be all “okay well we’ll be taking these from you now and giving them to someone that more looks like what we think a hero should look like. Her keeping the location a secret plays into her own imposter syndrome. Which lets face it Sydney has to have some of.
Pretty sure they already tried and failed to remove them from her person
I genuinely say cough in these types of situations, and have actually recently been diagnosed with ADHD, so I absolutely relate to Sydney here
Well, Dave mentions something that’s been bothering me for the longest time: WHY hasn’t Archon been out to inspect the exact location Sydney found her orbs? There could be all kinds of clues to their origin, or even more ‘space-wizard’ tech under that coral!
Just what we need, a bunch of additional sets of orbs active. But better Archon scuba divers than random tourists finding them, I suppose.
And if they DO get multiple orb sets bonded to users, at least they could experiment more with the skill tree…
Or other things, some dangerous new ultra powerful villain who turns out is just a doll/action figure/NPC that came with the orbs or another toy or robot left behind by the Nth level being(s) or find their version of a cell phone , basket or picnic blanket and these turn out to be so complex and powerful as artifacts that galactic empires would fight over them.
Her orbs are not really a macguffin? The orbs are still an amazing alien artifact even without it driving the plot, a macguffin is insignificant by itself.
There’s a zombie/bank heist movie where the safe cracker says “gulp” when he gulps in response to a worrying comment. I’m thinking you may have seen that movie. If not, I am amused by the coincidence.
i really though it was funny one of the coughs was her actually saying the word cough instead of just coughing more.
Maxima and her look of “Da-Fuq?”
