Grrl Power #838 – I’ll have the wedg(i)e salad
Yes, I drew Dabbler’s long tongue thrashing around all over Anvil’s cleavage. They’re not directly interacting, but I’m sure Dabbler won’t be offended if you pretend.
I modeled Archon’s Mess Dress largely after a Marine I found with a little googling. It had a cloak, so naturally I went with something like that, but decided to give it a few tweaks, including jackboots and those epaulets with the tassel fringe. After I drew it I realized that Max kind of looks like M. Bison/Vega. It wasn’t intentional, but I’m super okay with it.
I’m not actually sure what regulation military underwear is. I think I read something about, depending on the branch, everyone gets a few basic standard issue boxers or tighty whities, plus an allowance to buy like a week’s worth of your preferred style or something. And there’s probably a line somewhere about not wearing thongs and shit that’s going to chafe. I don’t know if they do underwear inspections, but they do barracks inspections so if you’re going to get caught in your drawers, that’d probably be the time.
I imagine Lt. Colonels never actually have to prove they’re wearing the right kind of underwear, (I’d like to see the general with the balls to check Maxima) so I’m not sure how valid Max’s protest is there in panel three.

“You got something in a low-rise bikini? Mesh, if possible.”
“Where’s your Drill Instructor men?”
“Blown up sir!”
They blow up so fast these days…
It’s not going to be the Gen. It’ll be the DI.
aaattTEEEEENTION!
seriously, the DI’s fuckup sense just blips and BAM he or she is RIGHT THERE. Yeah that was a door made of armorglass capable of stopping a 20mm depleted uranium penetrator on a building built against a MOP. Does it matter? Nah.
What is a DI?
Drill Instructor?
Everyone loves R. Lee Ermy. He’s funny.
Yep, but most of them aren’t so cheery.

Wait, isn’t Anvil the Archon DI? :confused:
For all of those saying M Bison: remember Yasunori Kato wore it first— and best. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasunori_Kat%C5%8D
Google image search him, too
Clearly, Maxima’s smart phone isn’t working – she’s got the “thong number.”
I do love a woman in uniform~ <3
….and out.
In my coundry the dress uniform of one of my best know branch include a leather apron and a an axe

Maxima dress uniform seems classic to me I have pictured her in a ral imperial Gard uniform

lumberjack engineer division?
what exactly do they do?
Whatever they want.
They’re okay. They sleep all night, and they work all day.
Pioneers, sometimes called ‘Assault Pioneers’ they’re ‘first in’ for a lot of Infantry Units.
Sort of a cross between Recon and Engineers.
Beards, axes and often leather aprons are traditional accoutrements for many countries.
I was going to add a picture but there are tons on duckduckgo or google ;)
Da. My dad enlisted as soon as he could, fresh not-quite-finished an electrical apprenticeship. So the first thing that happened to him was straight back to school (R.E.M.E.) where they added mechanical so he could repair vehicles, etc. On release, he applied for and was allowed to join the 1st Pioneers in the Kenya Regiment. He told me later that Pioneers always paraded with an axe — but it had to be razor-sharp and VERY clean. And yes, they were the ONLY troops allowed to wear beards, which had to be neatly trimmed for parade. Actually, he spent a large part of the war in school, supervising the education of Pioneers and other riff-raff.
After being told he was to be a Warrant Officer (“Kiss me goodnight Sar’Major…“) he was given a pair of silver crossed axes for his lapels.
He always had stories of construction and repair under enemy fire, and all troops carrying a Bren or Lee Enfield .303 along with their work tools. @Oldarmourer doesn’t take it far enough: the army marches on its stomach, but is preceded by the Pioneers who make smooth the path of retribution.
They are the pioneers from the Légion étrangère ( French Foreign Legion )
They build and repair anything the army needs to move from A to B, usually at the front lines.
Roads, bridges, housing, mechanical, electrical. I believe the odd water canal was built. The aprons worn by the Cameroon Pioneers symbolise (with the axes) that they can and will do any task, macro or micro, connected with keeping the army moving.
How cute the tall amazon knows the puppy dog pout. The cats and boots cute strike.
No regulations I’m aware of as to what underwear you can/should wear. Maybe you could dig up something but I imagine it would only be related healthy and hygiene or functionality. We were given tighty-whiteys in boot camp and wore those but got our regular underwear back at the end.
As for shit can find during a barracks inspection . . . Oh boy. I remember there were ‘heirlooms’ that got handed down. Some were cool, like a guitar that was passed along to the musically inclined and signed by everyone who had owned it. Sometimes the heirloom was an 18 inch black dildo called ‘Chesty’s Puller’and was hidden in a sock drawer or prominently displayed based on the individual owner’s cajones. So that was . . . interesting as the inspecting NCO
There is no fucking way, that a thong would ever be ‘regulation’
It might be. Do succubi have a military?
The Demon “Personal Guard” Elite Kama Sutra unit.
I could see this,
you always get that harem of succubi the overlord has; but for them to also be a personal guard would be awesome.
you thought to fight one Overlord with your party of adventurers, now you face the seven queens of Hell.
Actually it’s an S&M ilitary. The commandos in skintight black fetish gear, the frontline fighters with whips and chains, the psyops writers busily writing porn, and of course the Company Kinkmander organizing the whole effort.
A lot of the forces they come up against are so intimidated they surrender without a fight…
My unit is at attention and ready for inspection, Commandress!
Sounds like the DMs from Dungeon Keeper (and “YAFGC”)
That is probably an actual Warhammer 40k unit. Either Chaos (Slaanesh) or Eldar. Possibly Chaos Eldar…
I would imagine that ‘commando’ would be regulation for a succubus unit.
Dang, now I want to see it. The charge of the Red-light brigade.
Unfortunately this isn’t that kind of comic…
yet…
but where there’s life, there’s hope ;)
It’s a covert organization. Responsible for things such as The Emperor’s New Clothes and other ways to embarrass leaders of other nations such as ‘outing’ a supposedly holier-than-thou politician’s mistresses and other peccadilloes.
Yea that thong isn’t regulation. Not that anyone would check. And damn, Max is rocking the impressive factor in that mess dress. Coupled with her usual stern look, it pretty much screams that she isn’t going to be taking shit from anyone.
Of course, that’s just going to wind Deus up even more.
Kenya is really good at her puppy eyes.
And i can hear someone grabbing Drabbler by her horns telling her “I want that tongue on my G-spot!” XD
I love Dabbler’s face in the last panel. xD
So do I, but I’m still going W T F!!?!? Partially because I can’t really tell if Dabbler is in distress or loving it.
She’s a succubus, so a little of both…
I mean, consider the fact that her tongue is pierced in at least six places, as can be noted in the last panel here. I doubt Dabbler has a problem with a little discomfort, and probably enjoys it.
I’m pretty sure that as colonel Max would get epaulettes in british Military dress, though perhaps only 1?
I know in the 1800’s navy you had to be a full captain or ‘post’ to wear a 2nd epaulette….
Damnit – I’ve now googled it, and apaulettes are no longer regulation in US or UK forces – replaced with that shoulder cord stuff mostly
Also, I remember reading somewhere that US army regulation underwear during WW2 was white, and that there are stories of people getting shot as they used the toilet in the open because their underwear gave them away, but that it also helped a bunch of stranded soldiers who spelt out help on the beach in their white underwear…
So, from the above, regulation underwear is probably plain white Y-fronts or boxers.
But epaulettes are probably no longer in use by most nato-nations, though canada seems to have some.
That is still a badass dress uniform though
Gotta say, Maxi’s mess kit is boss, but this is probably the only branch of the US military where a cloak has EVER been part of uniform. Of course if there was ever going to be, supers is the place where it would be deployed.
(Edna Mode’s famous advice notwithstanding…. and by the way did anybody else notice at the time that the audience *laughed* – and were *intended* to laugh – when a teenage girl got sucked into a jet engine? Along with a bunch of other gruesome deaths? In a kids’ movie?
So… people in love having sex is taboo, but gruesome violent death not only gets a pass, but is played for *comedy* *effect*, in *kids’* *shows*, in theaters. Doesn’t anyone else see how utterly CRAZY that is???)
yes, that was the entire punch of a Simpsons Halloween skit once, “we can show a dozen grizzly murders but not one second of the passionate act of love”
we are talking about a film industry/culture where they think somehow a same sex kiss is a kinky fetish but two straight people can French on screen and even dry hump for a few seconds before cutting to black and only get a PG rating.
Also…a movie came out once about Guiana pigs packing assault weapons.
Its always weird, I mean at one point the censoring in kids cartoons was like “no real bullets or punching” but lasers, explosions, throwing people off buildings, swords, that’s all fine.
oh right forgot, at the same time as the no bullets and punching thing censors cracked down on depictions of realistic female anatomy, like actually have cleavage. Why early to mid 90’s you started to see the uni-boob in a lot of shows like Superman the Animated Series and ReBoot (prior to changing channels in later seasons…yet also this rule by these censors applied to only good guys like Dot but not the dominatrix themed villain Hexidecimal). Censorship was so many layers and a major hassle as it often came down to the specific channel and even the individual in charge there of censorship.
It’s odd, but while the jet engine thing was very violent, it wasn’t gruesome in what was actually shown. The exact same shot, but with a drop of blood showing on the front of the engine would probably be an age rating higher. Spray of blood out of the back? At least two higher.
It’s really weird how they determine these sort of things. And it definitely is ridiculous how much harsher they are on sexuality, especially for the “good guys”.
You can show Conan ripping a monster’s head off, or Rambo murdering 50 people. A woman cannot show her body.
It’s a religious fanatic thing. The “Big Three” are all drawn from the same stock, and at best can be described as a death cult that is really, really interested in telling people what they can and cannot do in the privacy of their own bedrooms.
So death, dismemberment, blood splatter, bullet holes, that’s all just fine, because of the death cult thing. But sex is right out, because of the control your bedroom activities thing.
Religion ruins everything.
“Religion ruins everything.”
‹› I know there’s a ^LOT^ Buddhists who’d disagree ^very^ ^strongly^ with that ^overbroad^ statement about religion in general.

18–30. Undergarments
a. Brassieres and underpants (female).
(1) Type. Brassieres and underpants are a one-time cash allowance purchase as part of the initial clothing bag allowance.
(2) Description. Brassieres and underpants may be of a commercial design, in white, black, or other neutral colors that
are not readily apparent when worn under the uniform. The category of brassieres also includes sports bras.
(3) How worn. Females will wear brassieres and underpants with all uniforms.
b. Camisole (female).
Hmm, butt floss may look sexy, but not fun for day to day wear, as I know from all too personal experience. Basic cotton bikini cut suits me just fine for most days.
Frankly, if I were a woman, you couldn’t pay me enough or promise me enough to wear a thong. What the hell.
(And yes, I’ve seen the body-builder-thongs and the like worn in specialty situations by guys… same response… no enough money or anything else in the world, ever.)
I’ve had multiple girlfriends who wore nothing but thongs. This was daily wear, not just for the sexy (as in they had daily wear thongs and still had more lingerie like thongs), and never had a bad word to say about them or their supposed lack of comfort.
So really you’re just speaking from a position of ignorance, in the literal sense of the word: You have no actual idea and have jumped to a conclusion based purely on your feelings and not on facts.
Quite an overreaction to a piece of underwear. I’m puzzled over people’s reaction to thongs in these comments.
… Also puzzled why Maxima thinks over how she will need to sneakily adjust it.
One of the big pros with thongs is that they rarely if ever need adjustment. Another is that they don’t give a chance of double-buttcheek. A cotton thong can be very comfortable.
Ever worn one, for extended period of time?
Yes. Most of my underwear are thongs these days, because of it.
They CAN be very comfortable, but part of that is based on someone being used to wearing them. If someone is not used to that feeling, they tend to provoke the desire to periodically ‘un-wedgie’, especially with extended periods of use and movement.
hey, at least she didn’t suggest a C-String Bikini…
Or the pearl string bikini…
https://www.amazon.com/Heartbridge-Bikini-Set-Lingerie-Embroidered/dp/B07Q83V7P4
I’ve seen ones of these with just the pearl string, not even the tiny bits of fabric this one has to each side.
I suppose she looks a bit like M. Bison, but I was thinking more of a certain other character…
Yare yare
Even this minor concession is killing me. And not in a good way.
ok.. Max’s outfit in the first panel reminds me of an old 80-90’s anime I can’t quite remember the name of ….
OK, I have no real hope that this will get the response that I am hoping for, but:
I have searched and searched and come up empty. Is there anyone anywhere that is making/producing/printing/ publishing comics/graphic novels/whatever of Grrl Power?? There isn’t enough space to declare how much I want something like that to add to my collection!!!
