Frigg does have her moments, doesn’t she? but I could hardly call her hawt. Heck for a while, GA was one of the few comics out there without a blatantly attractive female lead, at least when Bandit wasn’t around. *swoon* Bandit…you’ve stolen my heart.
He was originally a mercenary, paid to solve problems with the application of violence with the tools of his trade. So you could say he dealt in pro-pain, and pro-pain accessories.
With careful editing, that last panel could give quite a number of interesting commenter avatars. Or it’s the avatar of a nine-armed, four-headed goddess of fiery emotion.
Frigg looks completely different in panel 2, in a really good way. For a moment I forgot that she’s normally the most vulgar person in the comic.
John, this is awesome.
From listening to frigg it sounds like they’ve got a lot on their plate. They really sound starved for a solution, although it’s good to know what’s eating them.
Such as causing a man to die? I see muchfail in the logic. Of course, Frigg is overly simplifying that plan. Syr’Nj wants Byron to focus himself on the bad guys. She wants his Berserk nature trained, much like how in D&D a barbarian can get Rage, but it’s still targeted. You don’t automatically rip into the first thing that moves, you are still yourself. She wants Byron to be like that. I get that. Frigg, however, still remembers the ‘crush’ he had on her and wishes to not repeat it. And it’s cute how she’s freaking about it. <3
And don’t even get me started on the whole “Hitler clone to kill another Hitler clone” scenario. That just didn’t work out at all. Man, I had to fight my way out of that one with a soup ladle. Good thing the clones were all explosive by nature…
I’m just staying clear of science from now on, I think.
As a character, Frigg is a little difficult to swallow. She just breaks the suspension of disbelief with her ridiculous personality. And now, the first time we begin to see even minor character development for her, she’s acting like a honey badger on crack cocaine…
Second panel is very, very nice.
‘seconded’
call me weird, but ive always found Frigg attractive. panel 2 is very nice indeed.
panel 5, left face is the “cutest” ive ever seen Frigg btw XD

Pretty attractive for a graying mustachio’ed middle aged man, yes.
ifind frigg attractive as well. I tend to go for the tough-as-nails girls anyway, and frigg is just sooo entertaining. Shes the complete package!
Ditto. Short red heads too.
Art in this strip is fantastic in general. good job!
That last panel made me LOL.
So Byron is like a gas buildup that you have to vent from time to time so it doesn’t exploded without warning? I can buy that.

IF THIS IS NOT GOLD STAR MATERIAL I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS.
Apparently you know what is.
Gold Star.
i never could figure out how to make that pun work… never occurred to me to apply it to GA. nicely done

Who wouldn’t go with the latter?

John, this is awesome.
Ditto! Nicely done, John! :)
Thanks guys.
I read every Gravedust line with the voice of David Suchet playing Hercule Poirot. And for that, I love Gravedust a bit more.
You remember when they put the party in that prison?
They used the little grey cells.
Mon dieu! I have been the fool!
Quickly, Hastings!
Breakfast at Ardaic’s
If someone interrupts she’s gonna wallop them with the breakfast club.
You just bought yourself another Saturday.
Just kick him in the nuts. Repeat until it’s Berserk-y time. Finish by accentuating the dish with a spritz of lime and sprig of cilantro.
Hey, just realized you changed the lettering font. What was wrong with DigitalStrip? (apart from being used in many many comics)
Just thought it was time to upgrade to the slightly more versatile DigitalStrip 2.0.
I still wanna know how you do speech bubbles without just breaking down to cry every five minutes.
I’m an editor.
“Phil Kahn, Two-Fisted Editor”.
heh.

Now that’s some food for thought.
You know, I’m pretty sure I’ve actually seen those exact faces on Syr’nj over the course of the comic.
Of course you did dude.
Right in this comic.
I find there to be nothing wrong with causing bad things to happen on purpose…

I’m pretty sure she just means that they need to initiate the berserking in a controlled environment once in order to verify that her treatment works.
you mean people! dont make him ‘zerk on a porpoise! what did the porpoise ever do to you?!
Years of dealing with soul shit have made Dusty somewhat of a spiritual janitor.
“How about you Frigg? Do you deal in any of this… ‘spiritual stuff’?
“Only the type ya drink.”
Magnificent expressions.
I like Frigg. I would like to know her in real life.
I just like how…tired and calm she is in pannel two.
The facial expressions of panel 2 and especially panel 5 are amazing! Brilliant job.
Why’d she not ask about her dreams? Would have thought Gravedust knew more about that then the Byron weirdlings.
Characterisation.
I just realized Frigg misspoke the word Identity. And the best part is you KNOW it wasn’t a comic typo, she actually misspoke!
I’m afraid it was actually a typo this time. Fixed!
…fixed to a different typo?
now shes just denty.
That …face… Frigg made when she said “and then she..” in the last panel… Is it shoutout to Helen B. Narbon, or I’m just nerdin?
You’d think Frigg would leap at the chance to have Byron berserk on her own terms >.>
I think she might be traumatized given, y’know. Him killing her by crushing her armor to the point where she asphyxiates.
That would be admitting weakness, the Frigg knows no weakness.
Does that thing restrict your breathing?
Of corset does!
nice one, bra
Bras… ier I gotta knocker on this thing; your attempt to start a boob pun-thread is busted.
I was making corset puns rather than boob puns. Corset puns are a cincher, but boob puns just make you look like a tit. :)
Are you suggesting being killed by a guy is a valid reason to feel he’s too dangerous to be around? Heresy!
I don’t think she’s traumatized so much as no longer ignorantly cocky.
Berserking is serious business, not an attraction at the county fair.
As others have said the expressions in this page are great. I really love Gravedust’s face in the last panel, it’s so comical!
My Dad always told me to fight fire with fire.
…That’s why they threw him out of the fire brigade.
well you know what they say about brute force…..
if its not workin you aint usin’ enuff!
Yeah, turns out that ideology doesn’t fly in medical school, either. Who would’ve guessed that deadly poison doesn’t counter deadly poison? Not I.
we set a thief to catch a thief, but it turned out they just stole some more exhibits.
You see, that’s when you tell the second thief their target is actually a priceless realistic golem, and make them steal the first thief.
When they turn around and sell the caught thief on the black market, you give them their reward as payment – and they’ll never know the difference.
And don’t even get me started on the whole “Hitler clone to kill another Hitler clone” scenario. That just didn’t work out at all. Man, I had to fight my way out of that one with a soup ladle. Good thing the clones were all explosive by nature…

That’s not what all those homeopathy products tell us!
(Or would if they had any actual active product in them.)
Frigg should comment on the every page, even the ones shes not in.
Killtacular is now up there with Beautimus, and Fantabulous.
My favorite words.
They just need to make sure Byron doesn’t skip his Killaholics Anonymous meetings.
It don’t look fixed to me…
compared to her usual expressions of pissed off or cocky, this is probably the most expressive shes ever been.
“Killtacular” is so going into my head-dictionary.
As a character, Frigg is a little difficult to swallow. She just breaks the suspension of disbelief with her ridiculous personality. And now, the first time we begin to see even minor character development for her, she’s acting like a honey badger on crack cocaine…
Severe Waltripping again in Panel 5.
Someone get the Looney Tunes soundboard out.
