    Boy, she must be a new thief. Everyone knows, smoke bomb = run away, not smoke bomb = prepare to fight when the smoke clears.

  2. SquidDNA Says:

    She actually had something else in mind. The next panel will make it all clear!

  3. Tory Says:

    I figured the next panel would be finishing the fall and looking in the yellow pages for a good cleaners for that nasty oil stain she’s bound to have.

  4. LCV Says:

    I can’t quite figure out what the brown stuff is. What is it?

  5. SquidDNA Says:

    Oil.

    Also, Tory, the fall has been averted by an unlikely acrobatic feat. She has spun and braced herself between the walls of the corridor.

  6. Tory Says:

    Ah, I see. It’s hard to get that from th scene as drawn, just because the perspective seems like the corridor might be a little too wide for that feat without here being pretty stretched out (the other character looks like he could stretch his arms out and just touch both walls, so maybe six feet wide). If she had hit and braced her hands against the wall instead of her arms/ forearms and then the next scene showed her bracing her feet that might have cleared it up for me. Thinking about that slip and fall wall brace scenario, her foot should slip, bringing her leg up, then her head/hands should hit the wall and her hands brace as her un-oiled foot hits the wall, so I would expect her gripping foot to be a little higher (maybe waist high) while her oiled foot might not even catch the wall (if the ceilings are low enough, it might end up catching grip there if she is flexible and the oil comes off as her foot slides up the wall). So basically I would expect her waist to be a little higher up, shifting her foot position, and with her arms bent and hands pressed against the wall.

    Maybe it’s me growing up reading Spiderman comics in the McFarlane years:-)

    her pose is indeed very sexy
    i didn’t realize that she caught herself on the wall like Tory said
    that was kinda hard to notice
    …blame Riess ;)

    “Did you think i was… just talking all this time? Quite the contrary. You will now see that I WAS PEEING.”

  10. Riess Says:

    I blame Squid for writing bloody impossible scenes.

  11. SquidDNA Says:

    I blame Moe.

  12. deadguy Says:

    That’s what we all do.

  13. Adonis Says:

    I like so far. And yes, I blame Moe, too.

  14. Tory Says:

    Hey Moe, how many pages per chapter? Are you going with the standard 32 pages or being a non-conformist?

  15. SquidDNA Says:

    Chapters are over when we say they’re over! They conform to US.

  16. Tory Says:

    So here’s a dilemma; does conforming to a nonconformist make you a conformist?

  17. SquidDNA Says:

    The comic conforms to our lack of conformity where conformation to chapter condition codes are concerned.
