Grrl Power #1387 – Anatomically suspect advice
I was going to have Sydney say “…the resultant queef would ankle your panties and roll down your stockings.” But in a supreme moment of self control, I reigned in my urge to keep adding to a sentence until every thought is a short novella. Plus, you know, brevity is the soul of inappropriate frontbutt fart jokes.
By the time Sydney gets back home, she may have accrued a record amount punitive PT, KP, HR, and “Standing on guard in the rain” duty. I mean, this is a work outing. Or a mission, really. But they’re also undercover, so of course, holding to strict military codes of conduct would be antithetical to mission objectives, one might argue. Sydney is just getting into character. By… acting like herself. So, that argument may not fly.
Ooh, look! A new vote incentive!
Well, in progress, obviously. I have another one that’s actually a bit further along, but everyone was all, “Sydney Kobold vote incentive!” So I switched to this one. Plus the other one was a multi-character picture so it will actually take me longer to finish. I hope to have an update for this one each week, so stay tuned. There is a slightly higher res version on Patreon.
By the way, this gunmetal blue-ish background and teal pencils are how I draw the comic. I set it up this way so I don’t have to spend all day staring into a bright white blank page.
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
Hey, if Max even does a little *snerk*, you’re cleared.
It is my head canon that Robby the Robot was the avatar of a multiverse traveling entity, that made slight alterations to fit various universes. Given the MANY movie and television show appearances, including despite the same design being a “different” robot in different episodes of shows like Twilight Zone.
You know… by not saying “ankle your panties” you have just implied that she is not wearing any :P
I think Maxima is smart enough to have very low expectations of proper military behavior from Sydney.
Max don’t exactly run a tight tight ship on the whole military behaviour thing. You is very relaxed with her troops when not on duty. And she let’s the line between on duty and not blur a lot when there isn’t business to take care of. With everything else I think max is just the tipe of feminist who doesn’t like queef jokes.
Next monthly art should be this Happening.
Oh sweet jesus Sidney… warn people before you go off like that…
She is there, that has to be warning enough.
Omg im actually caught up and what a page to do it on lmao. Thank you so much for the last couple weeks of my life and the last 15 years of your life! Here’s to the next 15!
So, what happened to “Retro Future”?
It’s been left in the Nu-Age Past.
I’m gonna be honest, I thought the pink girl was Digit.
Dabbler of course wears a class S Zettai ryōiki
Calling it now, Sydney uses one of the conspicuous ones out of need or thinking she won’t get caught and this sets off flags that either have people wondering wdf tech she has, holy crap non-human super, or gives away her disguise. Max or Harem would be interesting wildcards for this result but…well….Sydney….
Also that Robbie ‘quote’ is never going away, it shall forever be the first thing I think of when that robot or anything similar pops up.
“REINED in,” please, if it’s not too much trouble. CHILDREN read this webcomic; we don’t want them to pick up suboptimal orthographical habits. Or we should at least TRY to mitigate the overall effect by setting a good example.
If CHILDREN are reading this comic… they shouldn’t be. Where are their parents?
The mission statement for this webcomic was clearly stated as ‘Cheesecake and Beefcake’.
If children are reading this it’s because their parents art parenting. The rest of the world doesn’t have to cater to unsupervised crotch goblins. The world is created by adults for adults it is the parents responsibility to given what their child sees.
More importantly a queef joke is no different to a fart joke. It’s hardly an issue if children learn that girls and women have a second way to fart. The fact that you think that this is something that beed to hidden form children when the are circumstances where half of them can do it says more about you than anything else.
Some people find butt fart jokes offensive, and at least the butt is not a sexual organ in hyu-mons (doesn’t mean people don’t use it for sex, just like they use the mouth)
Probably way over there, making sure the little darlings aren’t clicking the button on “Oglaf” that says they’re over eighteen.
Oglaf would be the least of my worries.
lol, so many people thinking you’re talking about the content of the comic, and not Dave’s commentary confusing two homophones.
Advanced battle robot?
You think Maxima is more of an Atlas or a Timber Wolf?
Battletech…Google it.
She’s more of an Armored Core to be honest.
I’d say Getter Robo but that would require her to go all out rather than try and hold back to be inconspicuous.
Maxima is more of a Thunderbolt.
THUNDERBOLT 10M. The one with the triple ppcs. One heavy, one snub, one light. Some missiles to keep things honest. Jump jets for flight. It’s my fave.
More of a Clan member like a Jade Falcon or Ghost Bear.
Definitively an Omega for Maxima, pimped up to clan tech because a Tunderbolt don’t have enough Daka ..
If we’re going for the BattleTech reference, why not make her an Elemental?
She would be a great elemental, except she has the firepower of a Mad Cat… or whoever that was that had dual underslung PPCs. Man, I really need to fire up the computer and give the most recent battletech MMO game a real shot. I loved all the single player games in the 90s.
That sounds like a Marauder – which isn’t a Clan design, strictly speaking (unless you count the IIC variant) – but when the Timber Wolf first showed up in the Inner Sphere, IS targeting computers were getting confused between a Marauder (MAD) and a Catapult (CAT)… hence the IS reporting name of Mad Cat.
Gooch? If you think men have a lot of names for their genitals, women are nearly as bad. I worked in a medical department where most of the employees were women. When you are the only guy in the room and the women are chatting you hear a lot of things. It’s funny that when they were talking shop everyone tended to use the appropriate anatomical terms but when talking about themselves they tended to use colloquial terms such as one doctor referring to her genitals as her “hoo haa”.
It would be funny if Daphne had adopted the disguise of a species that didn’t have anything between their legs. The first time it occurs to her to have a look and there is nothing but a smooth patch of skin.
Given that there are already humans in space, Daphne could probably get away with the least disguise of the three. She is not going to be a combatant and she doesn’t have the orbs to hide. She would just need to be a human who isn’t Daphne. But where’s the fun in that.
If Harem’s “queef” hangs that low, maybe she needs to take a break? I’m 65 and I’ve reached the point that if I’m not careful when I sit my voice will raise 3 octaves lol. Once again, Sydney has managed to make everyone in the room try and fail not to laugh. She’s became the comedian of the squad. You can tell when the CO’s belly is quivering while they are yelling at him/her, and the rest are just trying to breathe…
Lighten up Max, this may be a sanctioned trip, but it’s hardly a military action. This is more like a Navy Seal taking a leave to join up with WWE wrestling… Or MMA cage match…
So, no muzzle because she can’t find her face properly…
But extendo arms, with hands she can’t feel, she thinks she can work out well enough to fool a native?
That’s just begging for trouble, can’t wait!
Maxima could choose to look like Jar-Jar Binks. Only play him as an “Angry Black Man”, instead of a goof. “Meesa cut Yousa, bitch!” comes to mind. :p
Is Sydney dressed as a Dai Li agent?
What’s the significance of the Stygian mask? Is Maxima doin an appropriation?
If that is ‘appropriation’, then so is Sydney and Daphne
And it’s ‘Stygan’ (no ‘i’)
So much for seeing the vote incentive, because I will be DAMNED if I tolerate the fricking INVASIVE tracking SHIT they require for the vote to be made. 4 just on privacy badger, with a total of 8 unnecessary java scripts wanting to run, most of them being the trackers. That is before allowing any of the scripts to run, since letting a script run can result in a dozen more popping up. I had one site pop 37 java scripts when I gave temporary permission to just a single script. This on wallyworld’s web site. Needless to say, I turned off permission again. NoScript has seriously slowed down the data rape of most websites. Even here 4 trackers are trying to run and 3 scrips aside from the actual website. All being blocked, aside from grrlpowercomic.com
Sydney looks like a character from Ratchet & Clank with that last pose :)
(or maybe even Megaman)
Robbie would definitely cut a bitch. Original Robbie was hard core.
Goddamnit, Dave, this has me laughing so hard I almost didn’t make it to the bathroom in time and now my whole family is wondering why I am laughing my ears off…
Ok, here is something to consider. Given you are a SF buff, I’m assuming you watched Stargate SG1, and were amused by Col O’Neil’s antics on occasion. When asked whether this would be appropriate for a USAF Special Forces type, especially one in a command role, their military advisors told them “He’s pretty toned down, the real ones are way worse”
Given that ArcSwat is very much a covert/SF role, except even more oddball, I imagine that there would be a very wide latitude for antics, as long as the mission isn’t compromised.
Anything that can be swept under the carpet without getting paperwork involved, is, because everyone hates paperwork. “We good? I’ll give you a free shot back if it makes you feel better.”
This is an issue when the unit starts echo-chambering some things that dont offend anyone IN the group but are… problematic outside it.
I have three terrible words you will never recover from. Tactical yaoi hands. You’re welcome.
Sydney really should consider this a victory. She *almost* made Max laugh.
That should be one of her objectives on this trip through space: Maxima laugh.
Am I the only one wondering how hard Harem’s laugh in the last panel broke containment and leaked to her other bodies?
