      I misread that. I thought she said nullfuck. I was gonna make a crack about that giving new meaning to hack and slash.

          If that’s a tank girl…Is there a jet girl, too?

          Meanwhile, the scientists are going to have a tonne of explaining to do. The townsfolk will want all the details of this weighty matter.

            I suspect Frigg will weigh-in on the debate with her usual bluntness to help make things clearer.

      No worries, Frigg is about to hull some ass; I’m sure they’ll catch up.

        Frigg told those two gnome professors previously that the next time she played chess she would do to the White Queen something very similiar to what she is about to do to that tank.

    That tank looks like one of the fighters in the Darkstalkers games.

    Gotta love the facial expressions in panels 2 and 3. :-)

    Looks like that’d make a great theme park ride.

    Also gotta love how adaptive Frigg’s language is. :-)

          I’m wondering when he’s going to start getting groupies within the story. So many opportunities for magician puns.

    His shield that blocks ANYTHING (at least physical so far?) can extend to the whole party?

    REALLY?

    Well damn. Just get a bunch of ranged/wizards on top of them and keep cycling that on and off to allow shots out and nothing in.

      It seems like it takes a little bit to spin up to that size and also seems to barely fit all of them.

        Aye, they were packed in like sardines. Appropriate after the fish horn got smoked. And now Frigg is off to make the young skipper into kippers.

    I guess maybe those extra three metres weren’t such a great choice after all.

    Aw, look at Rachel taking care of the unconscious gnome. She tries to be badass like Frigg, but she just cares too much.

      That’s the one who felt her up last episode. She’s probably making sure he’s alive so she can kick his ass. Frigg-style.

    the hammertank is too far away to be heard now, but I’m positive that it’s shouting “EXTERMINATE!” repeatedly as it rolls along.

    I’m suddenly struck by the similarities between Hammermech and Blitzcrank for LoL.

      That game was even more dangerous to my productivity than WoW itself. Like if WoW was just the fun parts.

      Horrifying.

    I’m surprised to get here at 6pm and discover that nobody’s complimented the art in panel 3. This is not an easy action scene to depict.

      Out of interest, how big do you draw each physical image? (or do you start digitally?)

        A very good question, ahdok.

        Each page is drawn on ordinary 8 1/2 by 11 printer paper, the actual image area being 7 by 9 1/4 inches (I have not gotten used to pencilling digitally, don’t think I ever will. I’ve been drawing on real paper for… well, a long time.)

        The penciled page is scanned, and then inked digitally with Manga Studio EX 4.0., and then colored in PhotoShop, coloring characters and environments on separate layers makes isolating and manipulating “foreground” and “background” elements a lot easier.

          … Srsly? 8.5X11? That’s kind of…insane? Impressive? Something that begins with ‘i’, in any case. o.o
