Grrl Power #810 – Dabbler’s mighty steed
Sydney, Pixel, Specs, Krona and Ellie might be a little annoyed that Decollete kept petitioning for help even after she had enrolled them into the search. On the other hand, I guess if you have 4 people beating the bushes for your lost child, you don’t flop on the couch and put on sportscenter. At least Dec’s being proactive.
Dabbler has obviously had her run-ins with demon hunters in the past. Also monster hunters, mage hunters, cyborg hunters, salacious woman hunters, whatever the particular bugaboo is for the society she’s visiting. (Though the salacious woman hunters aren’t always a bad thing, depending on why they’re looking for one.) But for the most part, she’s been there, done that, and has very little patience for hunters of things that she is.
You know, originally, I wrote Dabbler so that she never cursed. I thought it’d be funny if the sex demoness with by far the highest body count on the team never swore, but I guess she’s been hanging around Sydney a bit too much. I may be wrong, but this might be the first time she’s cursed in the comic. At least in English.
I wrote a book! It has nothing to do with Grrl Power. It’s actually Tamer fanfiction, but like, 120K words of it, and it’s free! It has dinosaurs, action, humor, xenoanthropology, and smexy times. Check it out here!
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.
This is a side of Dabbler we haven’t seen. This could get a little nasty.
Laughed at the horse cock dildo though.
Yeah, I’m now kinda surprised she went with a non-lethal attack last comic.
because she wants to find out who sent her, and then demonstrate that four armed fisting can also be an experience in terror instead of joy
[CosmicPlatonix]:
It makes perfect sense to me.
If you kill the ‘spider-girl’, then the people who SENT her will send you another attacker later.
(We know it’s not just her, because she spoke of her ‘mission’ on the previous page. Dabbler might not know this, but it’s prudent strategy to ASSUME this, & either confirm or else eliminate this possibility.)
Interrogate her NOW, & then take this battle “back up along the food-chain”, to forestall future attacks.
Equine phalluses HAVE been known to inflict FATAL injury to the intestinal tract.
In other words ~ copulation with one is ^definitly^ NOT recommended for any human without a vagina!!
@DaveB – Soooooooooooooo ……….. You’re commentary. You’re not even going to mention the elephant dildo in the room?
It’s mentioned in the comic name (well, alluded to there at least), in the mouse-over text (which is just the comic name…), and also in the left hand subtext prior to the © etc.
How could you miss it? And by ‘it’ I mean of course both the object and the mentions.
… How do you know that dildo is modelled on an elephant? o_O
You’re young, guesty.
Back before your time (before even mine, but I have seen a few in grand homes and in museums anyway) they used to make umbrella stands out of elephant penises. I suspect much of the reason was to provoke the same reaction Dabbler just got from Brooke.
I did a google search for “elephant penis” “umbrella stand” and got nothing. Seeing some pics of elephant penis, they are much too narrow to serve that purpose. However, umbrella stands made from elephant FEET were common. Are you sure that’s not what you were thinking of?
They made them from elephant feed, penises
Yeah, elephant feet
Not sure where your ancestry is from, butt mum is African (her mother use to have a pet leopard)
…guess you are making a joke, but just in case (and as a tribute to eldritch unbeings of Nether):
“elephant dildo” in this case is a play on the “elephant in the room” proverb – as in “something blatantly unobscured and painfully obvious that no one is talking about for some reason”, from which is “to address the elephant in the room” – as in “to talk about said obvious thing” – is derived from.
Also, a reference to a elephantine proportions of the dildo, which clearly has a being of some relation to equine genus as a model.
Also also, properly dried elephant penis can be used as a whip – theoretically, at least.
Thank you.
For a comment section that follows Grrl Power, it’s remarkably full of humorless literalists. Apparently the real elephant in the room around these parts is the inability of almost everyone here to recognize an obvious joke.
De nada.
As a sidenote of no consequence – I have an opposite problem: I tend to give people a benefit of the doubt far more readily than it would – and should – be prudent. I see everything as a joke of some degree (probably, an aftereffects of childhood trauma – being indoctrinated to consider strangers as “people” tends to warp one’s perception a bit), which leads far too often to “Bender moments” – specifically, “oh, wait – you are serious” ones. Being a cynical arsehole helps to follow such occasions with proper “in this case, allow me to laugh even louder” continuation, but from time to time the need to murder another joke by overexplanation rises its ugly head.
And, since I purposefully limit my usage of emoticons, and despise their bastard mutilated inbred cousins emoji on the general principle of “because”, sarcasm of any kind is especially troubling to translate through this thoughtless medium of man-made mundanity masquerading as meritocracy.
Also, alliterations.
May occur randomly, without discernible reason or excuse.
Eh…
Also also, maybe the real elephant was inside us all along…
I’m pretty sure that’s NOT an elephant dildo. That looks more like a blue version of the infamous “Thor,” which was a gel based dildo sold by a company called Zetacreations (they specialize in all kinds of sextoys for the “furry” fandom). While Thor is no longer sold (because gel sextoys are no longer sold due to health risks associated with toxic chemicals being absorbed into mucal membranes; they now specialize in silicon based toys), it’s still quite… legendary. It was even featured as an “easter egg” in the game Saint’s Row 3, as a melee weapon.
I also heard a story about a woman who kept one on her nightstand to defend against home intruders. I have no idea if it’s true or not (or if she owned it, but claimed she kept it to bludgeon home invaders as an excuse when someone saw it).
The Saint’s Row one is definitely a human dildo, just huge, if that’s modeled on Thor, then this one is Sleipnir.
Yup, looks like we’ve discovered a ‘hot button’ issue for Dabbler. Even moreso when it is directed at minors with a ‘usually’ limited ability to defend themselves.
Methinks the nonlethal option was used primarily so they could interrogate her to discover if she is a ‘lone wolf’ or part of an organization that needs to be addressed with extreme prejudice.
If something deserve the ‘fucking’ adjective here it is not the beer.
Agreed, she busted it out one panel too early. Though saying “And this fucking thing.” might be a bit too on the nose.
Of course she has a horse cock dildo — she did say that was her “fucking beer.”
I doubt Dabbler held that in her hands….
It doesn’t ,,,SEEM to be dripping ….
I don’t see any chair next to Dabbler.
I’m honestly assuming she pulled it out of hammer space at this moment, specifically for the effect she got. Yeah, she’s serious about taking on the demon hunter, but she’s still Dabbler.
This was my take as well – always time for a joke mid-crisis, Dabbler and Bugs Bunny would get along perfectly.
Or she had summoned it for a punchline (or visual aid) in the story she was telling, but the call interrupted her before she got to the bit where she was going to whip it out.
This seems like th most ^likely^ explanation (at least so far).
I guess Dabbler wants to have a full tank when she gets there.
She kept it in her ‘hammerspace’, if you know what I mean.
I hope you know what I mean, because I have no idea what I’m talking about.
Seriously, where am I and who are you people?
Was that Dildo up Dabbler’s Ass? or her Vagina?
Yes
Indeed.
It is flexible. So both?
Okay… So it’s a strap on she uses on herself?
They meant a double-ended, usually used by two women, butt it’s flexible enough to be used by one (either in two holes or one)
Just an observation, but in panel 9 Hiro’s navel jumped up to his 4pack. Weird.
if anything it’s the 8th panel that has the placement wrong.
At least according to normal/average irl human musculature.
Aftereffects of high voltage, perhaps?
After looking at it for a bit, the problem seems to be that Hiro is wearing low rise pants… Military uniforms for men just do not sit that low.
If she sat all the way down on that thing she would spit purple die for the rest of her life.
I would say it would kill her, but maybe Succubi have a straight tube between both ends?
Maybe they’re Bigger On The Inside? I’m sure there’s an interesting story there if that’s where the Timelords got the idea from.
Either that or their body stretches so they could mate with everything.
I find it odd that Dabbles doesn’t have a personal teleportation device with pinpoint accuracy when she has one that can summon her weapons at will and recall them if she happens to let go
It’s one thing to bring her ‘toys’ to her (and return them), it’s another to send herself somewhere she doesn’t even know
I don’t find that odd. What I do find odd is how someone with access to *ahem* such wonderful toys *ahem* (not to mention the one featured prominently on this page! Oh, wait, I just mentioned it…) would have to resort to “carried to the crime scene by a partner” as opposed to “used her Legion of Super-Heroes issued flight ring” (just a reference, I know Archon does not have or issue those things) to get there.
*Fly to your target with the help of some dinky little gadget
*Being carried to your target by the muscular magnificence of manliness incarnated in divine form of SHIRTLESS HIRO
…I think, the choice is obvious here.
Not if you are Oberon
Dabbler is acting intelligently. Super Hiro can fly fast, is formidable backup whn they gets there, is a sworn LEO, and he’s right there. Blowing his shirt off is fun, sure, but it also means Dabbler will arrive with a full charge of Tantric Energy
Flying to a place you’ve never scouted is far safer than teleporting blind. And a gadget will neither help if there’s a fight nor arrest any bad guys they find.
The problem intensifies if it isn’t a choice. If Dabbler isn’t with a a flying team mate, then what? She calls an uber while also calling for flying reinforcements?
Except… she is with a flying team mate (three actually, butt only one can carry her and provide real support)
Hiro also happens to be the SiC
Yes, she could call Maxi, butt we don’t know what (or whom) Maxi is doing right now and may not want to be disturbed
The American term is generally the XO.
Just as well not an American then :P
‘Executive Officer’ does not, to me, sound like a subordinate
If anyone would be the ‘Kisses & Hugs’ it would be Maxi with General Faulke her Commanding Officer
Dean’s comment above: she wanted to be topped off when she got there. What better way to do that than have one’s transport also provide a bit of a pick me up?
Sure, it’s not sex, but it’s *something*. Also she’s not allowed to sex with her teammates.
I suspect she’s getting Hiro to carry her for the same reason she blasted his shirt off: getting carried by a topless hunk will give her a slight (probably very slight, but every little bit you know) power boost.
Hiro is, or was, the second fastest flier on the team, the fact he looks like he does is just frosting on the croissant :)
Actually after Sydney’s speed boost he is the third fastest flier. Just saying…….
Which is why said “, or was,”, and wasn’t counting the Causeway, or Harem would be the fastest as she can literally travel at the speed of *VORP*
It’s possible the protection barrier inhibits such transportation depending on the action/personnel. Dabbler is a Civilian contractor, but Harem is a full member.
What protection barrier?
Hiro exists to be shirtless fanservice. Just accept you fate Hiro.
He probably spends WAY too much money already buying replacements. Might as well go shirtless at this point.
Well, it was ruined already…
Dabbles probably just *portal*ed in the dildo just for laughs, she’s still Dabbles after-all :P
‘Pulled it out of hammerspace just to mess with Heatwave’ was my guess too.
Dabbler’s Vagina = “Hammerspace”
You’ve said a mouthfull.
No, unless she has an external vagina, it ain’t.
You saying she couldn’t fit that in her mouth? Think of the mouth-feel
Since many works reserve hammerspace for female characters, I get the impression….
I believe you mean (frequently) “Hammered Space.” (ba-dum-tiss)
Blargh. A Dabbler cut in the middle of an action scene.
I’m beginning to be one of the readers who are getting tired of Dabbler jokes.
So, that makes one of you.
It’s Dave’s style. It won’t ever change and the rest of us don’t want it to.
This flashback was required to explain the last two panels of the previous page (the demon hunter being restrained by Dabbler’s bondage grenade.) Since Dabbler wasn’t part of the Girls’ Night Out we are being shown how she came to show up and save the day.
Conversely, as I was reading today’s comic I was thinking, “this is the kind of quality content I come here for.”
It’s in the break room, because it will break you.
(Alternatively: I guess she finally pulled that stick out of… *ahem*)
Is that… Jigs? She changed her hair, again
Heatwave, she’s in the tags. I did like the thing her hair did when the sex toy was shoved at her.
I think Guesticus meant the person with curly brownish hair we see only from behind and only a bit of in panel 1. And yes, that looks like Jiggawatt’s new hairstyle.
What about her mouth?
And yes, obviously it’s Brooke, was talking about the unnamed at the table (who seemed interested in the dildo in panel seven)
She had it last time we saw her: https://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-766-bullet-dump/
It’s part of her time skip fashion change.
there’s also a high chance its a wig, a lot o African American women choice wigs over the long, painful and expensive process of getting their natural hair straightened, so she could change hair styles at ht drop of a hat.
In all fairness she may have not gotten that one programed into her instant release Teleporter, and not really dabler tech because basically its basicaly just a Giant latex sextoy. and she has to go through menus to stash it.
and I do know a dominatrix who actually did that with a reverse ahem double Unchastity belt she had to take off of someone in a hurry. Her pet was Fine, just one of those OMG I NEED TO GO NOW AND I HAVE TWO IN ME AND IM INVERTED moments
After this is over, will Dabbler give Decollete a lecture on why she needs to set a better example for her young succubus charge in a somewhat loud voice?
Umm, why? o_O
To score points. Why else?
What else would you like to have Dabbler say to Decollete about Tamatha?
Umm, nothing? Because Tammy is Deco‘s protégé, and not some project to fight over?
There is no indication that Dabbler raised her voice.
Wait wait wait, wait, waitwaitwait, what? Did you seriously just suggest that Dabbles would be able to set a better example for a succubaby? o_O
I think we got the succubus equivalent of “So I said to Mable…”
Except she did the mabel one already: https://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-763-its-an-evil-spaceship-not-a-death-dreidel/
And Sydney did it during her post-bank interview as well.
Bit of a meta-joke too since there was some discussion about the phrase last time, so Dave changed it up.
Someone else pointed out (and I can’t believe only one) that Mogorogotha, the Abyssal Beast of Eternal Lust is M.A.B.E.L.
Dabbler knowing memes makes sense to me. She obviously has the tech to access the net (or could quickly cobble together a highly advanced version of a smart phone). She would naturally use it for multiple reasons. And with a table right there the “hold my beer” thing is just a warning that shit’s about to hit the fan. No doubt she will inform Max in transit. Vigilantism is a big no-no for ARC.
She already had the beer in the first panel
No vigilantism here. Dabbler may be a civilian consultant, but Hiro is going too and he is a cop and a Major. He’s also high enough that he doesn’t have to kick it up to Max. She’s a Colonel, not a micro-manager.
It’s already bad enough that a Colonel is in charge of something like 50 people tops instead of ~5,000. If Maxima has to be called in to consult on how they wipe their asses after they shit…
Fifty people, a number of whom have the firepower of an entire infantry battalion, others of whom can travel to anyplace in a few moments.
Not bad at all.
That they have a flag officer right there over the Colonel is appropriate as well.
Well 1 that’s basically implied to be Equivalent to a nuclear capable Light fighter with more armor than a Abrams that may be space capable, One thats “Bad for a tank” plus a Consultant that’s on at least that level, Another who is also bad for a tank, Heatwave is bad for a tank eventually and Jigs is also probably at that level so long as shes not using Positrons. and it kind of seems to go downhill from there.
No, it is complete bullshit. Try to keep in mind that we have actual nuclear weapons, and we still don’t put a colonel in charge of each one of them.
Having a general officer in charge of ~51 people is even more ridiculous when you consider that his entire role appears to be “general officer over Maxima and her crew of ~50 peeps.”
So? Stargate SG-1 had a Colonel in charge of THREE other people. It really depends on WHO you’re leading.
Referencing another fiction which also failed utterly to do military correctly doesn’t make your case…
*DING DING DINGUS* We have a winner!!
Yes, it’s fiction, which means they could have a fucking corporal in charge if they wanted (remember, it was Corporal O’Reilly who was really in charge of the 4077th)
You never can withstand the draw to demonstrate your idiocy, can you?
Being fiction doesn’t mean that the setting doesn’t need to make sense. Aligning a setting to the real world provides an anchor for the readers to associate with and relate to, improving immersion.
And no, his excellent secretarial skills didn’t place O’Reilly in charge of anything other than shuffling papers. You could use O’Reilly as an example of a subordinate having better skills than his superiors in certain areas, but not as an example of a junior NCO being “in charge” of a unit with many officer personnel.
And not only have you proven, again, how stupid you are, you have also proven you can’t recognize a joke
And that’s the point of fiction: it’s not real
So, what part of supers is supposed to be realistic? o_O
NOTHING about them makes sense, 90% (if not more) defy every known rules of science
The point of fiction isn’t that it isn’t real, you walnut.
Even a fictional story needs to anchor itself in reality in order to give the reader something to relate to.
She is a Lt. Col.. That is an important distinction. In the Air Force she would be a squadron commander. Given the firepower her team has the comparison to aircraft fits I think. I think her rank is still a bit high but appropriate if you remember she is the commanding officer of a branch of the organisation that is still recruiting people. There will be more then one team at some point. Getting the officers first to build the organisation is kind of SOB. Also if Hero of instance was a Major already and she is supposed to be in command you kind of have to make her a Lt. Col.. You don’t demote people to better fit in the rank structure.
Except for the laws stating how many years in service, etc. are needed for a particular rank. If Max had qualified and not been promoted this would probably mean that she had some less than stellar* performance reviews, and those are typically career killers. Up or out is the motto.
.
* And by “less than stellar” I mean exactly that. Not a bad review, not an average review, not a good review, but a less than stellar review. If you don’t get a review that basically says that you are the second coming of Christ and can handle all of your responsibilities as well as those of five other people simultaneously whilst also exhibiting a tireless dedication and being a beacon of inspiration to your peers and subordinates, then you are not going to be promoted. Because all of the officers who have the time in service to be in competition with you for that same promotion do have stellar reviews.
I have never seen laws dictating promotions.
Only regulations.
You might look again. Or possibly there are things that you consider to be ‘regulations’ but which actually have the force of law behind them.
I’ve mentioned this elsewhere, but rank is handed out according to what the military needs your rank to be.
She is the officer of a unit of individuals at least two of which (including herself) have enough firepower to go up against a battleship confident of near-immediate victory. The entire unit verses a carrier group? Hah!
The point is that sooner or later, there is going to be a discussion in a room where various officers are going to be discussing options. The military needs the people in that room to have capabilities that are roughly comparable. And the rank not to confuse anyone about the importance of their units.
Frankly, it’s a bit surprising to me that they did not make her a full bird, or even a one star. Of course, her behavior indicates that she’s not political enough for flag rank just yet, but still.
Except were prohibited by law.
What law?
I am a reservist in a Canadian artillery regiment, we have about 30 people in our battery (two guns), our commanding officer is a major, the CO of the entire regiment, about 70 people, is a Lieutenant Colonel. As others have pointed out, it is a factor of the destructive ability, not the size.
Frist: Normal colonels have command over people with very comparable abilities and gear.
Maxima has 50 people who all do completly different things.
Second: Maxima is probably also the commanding officer of everyone in the support crew from the cooking staff, to the power analysers.
Third: Maxima comes from the airforce and works with special talented people. At least in my country the basic rank for a pilot(or any other academical professional with completed militairy training) is captain. I even know someone who’s equal in rank to major, but has commanding power over no-one, but himself and he answers to two colonels who do only command the people with the same job as he does, which are at most a few hunderd people.
Fourth: Maxima needs to be allowed to take part in talks at every level between the chains in command, since she indeed manages something with the power of an army 5.000 men with tanks, so she needs at least the rang of major.(stolen from the reason this equal in rank to major has such a ridiculus high rank)
Fifth: Archon was state secret until the press conference, so they probably wanted to avoid anything too low in the chain of command(accidentely or not) finding out by pulling rank. This would also explain, why she isn’t a major, but a colonel, since they would have to move everyone with important knowledge in what they were doing(like their entire power set) to high officer, so everyone with powers in Archon before the publication was immediatly in the rank of comanding officer, but still had need for someone as a commanding officer from a higher rank like a colonel.
Just remember, Oberon is an expert in all things military, do not be correcting him regarding the military!!
I don’t fantasize my military knowledge above his. I just challenge him and hope for his even more informed answer, so I will learn new things.
It’s one of the major reasons I like discussing and debating.
Gamesman was referring to Aranea being a vigilante
Exactly!
“But for the most part, she’s been there, done that, and has very little patience for hunters of things that she is.”
Wich is bad news for many people, as Dabbler is a *lot* of things.
“The action is starting.”
“I don’t see anything – how do you know?”
“Hiro just lost his shirt again.”
“If he loses his pants, shit is about to go down.”
Or it just went down, as in the explosion that left he and Maxima facing each other full frontal.
“… Although I can soon fix that!” – Dabbler
Given that it’s Dabler, I wouldn’t be sure she was actually swearing.
I like what she’s done with her hair.
Does she know she has Mood Ears?
Who? Dabbles or Brook?
Dabbs – and she definitely has mood ears.
I like the hair as well, like how it matches the ears.
Just compared her hair in panel 1 to the rest – I think the twirl was a color change in progress, as the teal moves from just the tips up to halfway. Nice touch of character development to throw in during a casual breakroom talk.
Yeah, asked because Dabbles has always had ‘mood ears’, butt it kinda looked like Brook did as well in panel horse-cock :)
She has “mood everything” in that panel, to be honest.
I’d bet Dabbler fetched that dildo just from her hammerspace as a prank, to give Heatwave a scare.
(That thing looks just impractical. Without the suction cup at the lower end it might work for two, but as-is and bent like that? Therefore my theory is that it’s a prank device, not intended for real use.)
That, or succubi really have ‘vagoo’s of holding’
It’s not “bent like that”, it’s just rubbery and floppy. The curve is there to imply floppy motion because she’s thrusting it towards Heatwave.
Dabbler clearly has an account with B** D*****. Because of course she does.
Bad Dreams?
Bag Driver?
Boy Dashi?
Bib Djinn?
Beg Dweeb?
Bio Dying?
C’mon, give us a hint!
Not-nice flying-mythical-fire-breathing-lizards
A strange way to describe Bob Dylan®, but ok.
No no, Bette Davis. Or perhaps Benjamin Disraeli or Bobby Darren, depending on Spanners’ age.
Leonard Bernstein!
Sorry, thought you were doing “End of the World as we Know It”.
To keep you from asking, the reference is to Bad Dragon, pervayor of sex toys! It’s well known, in furry circles!
Purveyor or perverteyor?
Hey, you never know, she may be part duck and her vagina corkscrews counter-clockwise.
It’s probably intended for a prank, but Dabbler’s a succubus. She could probably actually use the thing.
Geeze, Hiro. Skin on skin gives Dabbler a better grip when you fly really fast and she needs to hang on to you. It’s SO obvious!
I just figured she needed to top off tantric energy…
Huh, so Bugaboo is an actual word. I didn’t know that until today. And here I thought it was just a merge of Ladybug and the Boo-ending often used for pet names.
But this way Cat Noir’s pun is actually funny. XD
You watch “The Miraculous Lady Bug”?
Doesn’t everyone ?
Oh hell yeah I do! ^^ That show is so incredibly creative, especially in the later seasons, it has an uplifting atmosphere and Hawkmoth is more of a smooth talker who for the most part lets his servants do whatever they want than a dominant slave-driver.
But oh boy does season 3 have some tear-jerking moments. If that show hadn’t toned those scenes down due to having been made for little girls it would have cut so deep.
My favorite episode is Zombizou, because it’s such a hilarious parody of Zombie Apocalypse movies.
Never seen it, closest to knowing anything about it, is collecting the toys from Kinder Surprise (and the Hentai images)
> (Though the salacious woman hunters aren’t always a bad thing, depending on why they’re looking for one.)
That is blatant discrimination against cyborg hunters, they could be after the same thing!
Or pretty much any other type of hunter.
I see Mabel has revealed her true form at last.
No one’s asking the obvious.
Where’s Hiro coming from that his shirt is scuffed and torn a bit already.
And vicarious thrills of women seeing Hiro flying her while he’s shirtless is gonna let her charge up or top off her powers before any encounters…(if there are men that are thrilled, I’m sure she’s smart enough to not tell Hiro about it and just glean her share of tantric lust in passing.)
He is just very clever and perceptive.
He knows that in the case of emergency alert his shirt is a goner, so while on duty he wears old and decrepit shirts on purpose – that way he won’t loose a good one every time something happens (id est, every other Tuesday).
Running gag, but I don’t think he’s bought into his fan service role fully enough to do it deliberately.
I dunno that Dabbs is really going to charge up either, I think she is just taking advantage of the situation since he won’t waste time arguing.
A few hours ago they fought aliens.
The after action didn’t give him a chance to change shirts until now
and now Dabbler needs him to Uber her stat.
Nope, it’s the day after the invasion attempt. 774 is the same evening, where Sydney expands the plan to a girls’ night, 776 is Sydney calling Dr Frost in the middle of the night.
Then in 777 she goes to work the next morning, and in 784 she leaves work at the end of the day, beginning the current evening out.
Given that 777 shows Max in full formal dress, I can’t imagine Hiro didn’t have time in the last 36-ish hours to change. I suppose he could have been out doing more cleanup though, since he always wears identical shirts.
Doesn’t mean the cleanup had ended, unless Hiro was painting a wabid rolverine, again
Trouble downtown in…. the City. Whatever city it is that Archon is actually located near/in/around. Wherever it is, it’s a short Hiro flight downtown and important enough the Vigiles are based around. Ah, The City.
It’s Dallas.
Demon hunters?
You can find anything in Deep Ellum.
Can confirm.
No, the City is home to the Tick! and his stalwart companion Arthur.
No, it is Dallas. Dave lives in the Dallas area.
This city seems to be an amalgam of Dallas and El Paso. Dallas doesn’t have the mountains and desert nearby like El Paso, but El Paso is not as big a city as the one in the comic. So the city this comic is based on is basically Dallas set in the deserts of far west Texas.
Unless, in the GrrlVerse, El Paso became the Big Smoke and Dallas remained a small cattle town (almost said ‘capital’, butt Hoston* is the capital… isn’t it?)
*spelt deliberately, if the Yanks don’t like using the letter ‘u’, gonna stop using it for their cities and crap :P
Is Heatwave spontaneously summoning an AT Field in panel 6 (the hexagons) to keep that away from her?
The glass walls of the conference rooms have that pattern drawn (etched?) on them.
A common reaction to “THE POWER OF COCK COMPELS YOU!” declaration.
So… Morgotha Abyssal Fiend of Lust is the demonic equivlent of Mabel?
Yes… And I was just about to mention that “callback” myself.
See; https://www.grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-763-its-an-evil-spaceship-not-a-death-dreidel/

Well done on the research friend.
Your corset design is fantastic.
Any chance it’s real life inspire ? :)
You want DaveB to model it for you?
Personally preferred her corset with the holographic ticker-tape design (ticker-tape? wait, that’s what they use for parades, isn’t it? what’s that thing that appears at the bottom of live-news? we don’t have that down here, only seen it on overseas TV)
News ticker, you were half right.
Basically the same thing, a scroll of news in a band. Just one is electronic and the other is physical. On the bottom of a TV show, it might also be called a crawler. On the side of a building it is news ticker.
That was it: a ‘crawler’
Like said, we usually don’t have things like that
Can’t stop laughing at the massive duck dildo.
‘Duck’? o_O
Well, with that thing being waved around, ducking is the best option :P
Ducks have corkscrew dicks
“Celebrity Equines of Hollywood”…
And it’s purple.
Is?..
Is this a replica dedicated to that one episode where Twilight Sparkle became futa after a spell mishap?
Is it just the lighting, or is everyone with human skin sunburned all over?
Achilles, can’t get sunburned.
You can also get a red flush like that from either an embarrassment response or an anger response. Also from an allergy response, but getting one of those over that much of ones body is really uncomfortable.
Except looking at panel 7 again, I see that Hiro already has it. Either he’s allergic to fel, or he was really embarrassed by the dildo.
Or possibly smoke and ash from his former shirt is providing some color to the scene.
Also shadows from the lightning flash.
Surely I cannot be the only one that thought of Saints Row with that giant purple dildo.
I can assure you that you were not the only one. 8^)
I also thought of the two female employees at a Lotions & Lace erotica shop in California that chased off an armed robber by pelting him with dildos. Happened a little over 3 years ago, in mid-December 2016. The gun turned out to be a toy gun, so nobody got hurt, except maybe for the would-be robber’s pride.
For a moment, I thought it was an internal organ.
And in a way, it was.
Dabbler can’t fly herself? Or is it that Hiro can do it faster?
Or its that she gets a shirtless Hiro carrying her in his arms.
Why do the work of flying yourself when you can cuddle with a shirtless hunk while he does the work for you? Especially if you’re Dabbler. She gets to save her energy, top off at the same time, and enjoy the ride immensely.
In my headcanon, Dabbler also made Hiro’s pants low-rise.
I’m pretty sure Dabbler made his pants rise in some fashion.
I’m a little embarassed to admit I knew exactly what species that marital aid was modeled after even before reading the tagline under the comic. Prolly from the BoJack Horseman collection.
I don’t know if I could deal with a non-profane Dabble. The idea of her screaming “hump me hard! hump me so hard in the vagina and anus, this intercourse is so good!” during sex is, like, instant boner murder, BoJack or otherwise.
I think Dabbler could scream things like “Your grandma is watching us!” mid-coitus and still not manage to commit boner murder. She’s probably mystically incapable of causing a man to lose an erection with the possible exception (and only possible) of him needing a few minutes to recover after the deed is done.
Thanks for that suggestion, Marty.
I don’t think it counts as profanity in that context, it is just using a more convenient term than the clinically preferred one.
That first panel, just that first panel, for the win!
