Grrl Power #1347 – Schwinn…g?
So Flash Drive is supposed to be ridiculously hot. In the comic, he suffers from my artistic limitations, as well as the fact that I am a heterosexual male with a finite understanding of what women find attractive. The first panel with his face (don’t ask what happened to his helmet. He super speeded it off I guess. And… hid it behind his back?) But in that first panel, I think he’s probably kind of hot? Like in a “I am a conspicuously attractive male and you wouldn’t be surprised seeing my face doing a Blue Steel thing in an underwear ad but if you saw me at a bar, your defenses would go up because I look like I know I’m super hot and am therefore kind of a smug dick” way. In the next two panels, that 3/4 view… I think his comeliness drops about 6 points in those. I just couldn’t match the face. Or, maybe I could have, but this is two double pages in a row when I’m already pressed for time, so… Anyway, the gag is that he’s super hot and women (and a certain percentage of men) go gooey.
Oh, and I’m sure people who are super into cycling might have some opinion about Flash Drive’s bike. Look, I don’t know how to draw bikes. I found a 3D model of a reasonable looking bike, screen shotted it at different angles, and traced it. Not some titanium $20,000 Tour de France number, just a bike that didn’t look like a 60 pound Radio Flyer cruiser that rattles going down a sidewalk like a knight in full plate on a galloping horse.
I’m going to try something with this new vote incentive.
This month, I’m closing on a new house, selling my Mom’s house, finishing packing Mom’s house, moving city to city to the new house, forwarding mail, canceling utilities, all that. And after that’s done, I get to start the process of selling my old house, which needs a little work before it can realistically go on the market.
SO. I’m going to try and do this vote incentive in stages. Currently it’s just pencils. The TopWebcomics one will update with colors and detail until we get to the no clothes versions, then that will continue over at Patreon. Also there will be a comic or two in between each version to fill out the story.
I know it’s hard to tell from just the pencils, but this is Heatwave and Jiggawatt. The comics will explain why they’re doing what they’re doing. Although I feel like even saying that much makes it easy to guess, but hopefully the journey will still amuse.
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.
Being a speedster, I am betting his control over himself is exquisite. Ladies, think about that for a minute, drool, smile, and nod. Yowzers he is hot.
Yes the classic, “every part of him can vibrate” full body inside and out DEEP tissue vibrating massage. A really good speedster even able to vibrate different parts at different intensities at the same time.
As a pan Ace married to an Ace, my husband and I feel that ‘yes, he’s conventionally attractive, but doesn’t especially stand out among the other attractive supers you’ve established in this world’. Husband commented that he does have a bit of the ‘exotic hispanic vibe’. The kind that a rich woman in a tawdry romance novel would find by accident in a Spanish villa while running away from the responsibilities of managing her household back home.
Yup, he’s basically just a representation of the “Tall, dark and handsome” archetype one can find plastered all over bodice ripper novel covers.
“Not some titanium $20,000 Tour de France number” that wins the internet for me today!!
Young Travolta. Just sayin’.
I was getting Pierce Brosnan vibes, myself, but I see where you’re coming from.
definitelly lots of package going on
If you want a decent example, google Fabio. Thats probably the closest you’ll get to “universally attractive” in a real person. The man made his millions in the 1990s by being on the cover of thousands of romance books sold all over the world.
looks kinda like cavill
I love that Max and Dabbler are sharing a smirk in the last panel.
I mean Dabbler’s getting a free meal out of this, why wouldn’t she be happy?
Being weird i my first reaction was along the lines of: “What is his bike made off, since it can withstand all that power when Flash Drive has it zooming along at the speed of sound?”
as weird as it sounds. in regards to selling your house, have you considered just billing it as a fixer-upper as-is, or maybe knock a little off closing (depending on how bad the repairs are?) a friend of mine just had to sell her house and NGL the house itself was in HORRIBLE shape after her mom didnt take care of it for the better part of 40+ years (rotten fence, collapsed garage, rotten wood in the living room, rushed repair job, yadda yadda yadda) she probably could have gotten 350 out of it if the house was in better shape or 300 and knocked the house down. instead she settled on 275.
Can someone explain the paladin thing? Is it a WoW thing?
You think Maxima might be a little more upset at a civilian showing up at a top secret government site …
