Annotations Every Day - Written by T Campbell & Flo Kahn - Illustrated by John & Jason Waltrip

As it happens, 'Strapped to a jet pack' is very high among my own list of 'Preferred Methods of Dying.'

    She knows what you know because it’s written on your face.
    All those little lines, just need to read between them.

      Those glowy psycho eyeballs are pretty informative, too.

      Also, they’re not going to be able to save all those people they murdered to keep all this secret.

      Oh no. This is all just some fanfiction back story about how their character started in Cyberia.

      Rule number one: Do not call up that which you cannot put down.

    Frigg’s reaction is odd. Is she afraid of heights?

      For that matter, how did Gravedust get up there? Last I remember, he was getting his arm gnawed on by the eraserbeasts.

        there is a guildmaster skill called “Emergency Recall” which instantly transported selected guildmate from anywhere to somewhere nearby guildmaster.

        or they just throw some ropes to let them board the ship, as stated in some previous chapter ago

        Gravedust got into the ship with all the rest of the Five. You can see him standing with his back to us between Best and Frigg on this page: http://guildedage.net/comic/chapter-49-page-11/

      My logic there was it’s one of the only threats to her she can’t just smash out of relevance.

        She literally can’t “beat” gravity. ;-) Though I suspect it has more to do with the fact she’s about to go flying with a rocket strapped to her back, then gravity. She didn’t seem at all uneasy about being aboard this vessel until now.

    This would be a great time for Tectonicus, Graiya and the Countless to actually make an appearance. And the meme gods I guess.

    I fail to see how jetpacks is a better idea than dangling from a rope.

      Pfft. Don’t you know anything about hero-ing? It’s half ‘looking good’ and half ‘doing cool (and often stupid) things’.

        And if all your jet-packers fail, you still have an airship.

          Yeah, I’m pretty sure Goblaurence talking about the giant bag of explodey gas, a while back, was a Chekhov’s gun type of thing.

      Minor error, but ‘losing’ is the present tense, not the past.

    You know, when you want to destroy an eldritch, ancient evil that corrupts things, “Volcano” isn’t a bad way to go.

      Apparently, all of the birds of the region are now zombified, dead, derezzed or, for some reason, unable to fly.

    I hope she doesn’t go the way of one of Rachel’s former sisters (I don’t remember her name) the one who burned up — literally!

    Also, Best. It might be “Great Destiny” time soon. Maybe you will be the best flyer of the 5 after all.
    But i’m still VERY curious to see where/when those Cyberia heroes come into play again, if at all.

      Looks like Best is gonna learn to fly with those broken wings. He’ll learn to feel so free. … At least briefly.
