If I may borrow:
Amizi-Girl, in her consternation, Demonstrates defenestration,
And runs and runs and runs and runs away
(apologies and kudos to Mr. Watterson)
To be fair, there is only one person that, to her knowledge, has both the ability and the motive to be entering her room through the window in the middle of the night.
Trapper was great, way better than Hunnicutt. And the movie was sad, everything went downhill when Alda started directing and everything got all sappy. Still good just not as good.
Billie, Billie, Billie, haven’t you learned anything? In order to learn a super hero’s real identity, you have to shoot her. Which should only knock her out, because super heroes are weird like that.
XKCD is almost always funny and frequently touching and/or hilarious. And to answer your question I studied English in college and dropped out of my chemistry class. However I did marry a wonderfully brainy computer guy
I don’t know about you, but unless it’s going to burn the house down, or invites an unwanted observer, I don’t take a single moment away from sexy time to turn things off.
I’d still like to know how the two of them get out that window? Ever tried to wiggle thru one of those slot opening types, let alone ‘disappear’ thru one at the speed of light?
I’m waiting for Sal and Amazigirl to run into each other while trying to get into/out of the same window and getting into a super-hero etiquette argument.
You can literally see she doesn’t even vaguely resemble Sal, isn’t even the right race or skin tone, and you still think she’s Sal. I… Billie, I worry about you.
Loading ...
Yeah, that is pretty damning!
VINDICATION!!! or not.
window-cation, you mean.
Defenestration? Except voluntary instead of being thrown out.
If I may borrow:
Amizi-Girl, in her consternation, Demonstrates defenestration,
And runs and runs and runs and runs away
(apologies and kudos to Mr. Watterson)
Yes Billie … only one person in the world could ever use the window to get in a room.
If she doesn’t make it as a journalist she could always become a private investigator. Sherlock Billie.
To be fair, there is only one person that, to her knowledge, has both the ability and the motive to be entering her room through the window in the middle of the night.
OH NOES, Billie found out that Amazi-Girl is a vampire.
Not a vampire. Unfortunately, vampaneze
How does a car, no matter how ultra, become a vampire?
You never heard of the Batmobile?
oh we all know that poser’s just an emo kid.
“How does a car, no matter how ultra, become a vampire?”
Or a Jet.
I read that as Vampanzee
Now picturing vampiric chimps
Not gonna lie. I did too.
So did I.
As did I!
Do any of you get the reference at least? Cirque du Freak
Didn’t they make a shitty movie out of that? Starring Luke Wilson, Demi Moore, and Matthew McConaughey?
Gee, thanks, it’s not like I needed to sleep tonight. If you’ll excuse me, I’ll be under my bed gibbering in terror.
AH HA! You’re a gibbon!
I can watch a movie with vampiric chimps
Wasn’t that the premise of Outbreak?
I’ll be completely honest here…I don’t watch many movies.
For some reason that made me think of the old Tarzan movies with his trusty vampiric chimp sidekick Cheetah: “Me Tarzan, you …… AAARRRGGGHH!!!”
Is that similar to a gorillacula?
Well she sure as hell ain’t a grampire.
Or a Glampire.
SOLAR FLARE!!!
SOLARBEAM!
Billie used FLASH
Amazi-Girl flinched
COL. HENRY BLAKE: All right Trapper!–Don’t think I don’t know what you think I don’t know! (–M*A*S*H the TV series, of course)
OOPS. Replied to the wrong thread. I don’t like this interfaaaaaaaaace much.
Trapper was my least favorite character.
My favorite was Spearchucker, from the movie.
Trapper was great, way better than Hunnicutt. And the movie was sad, everything went downhill when Alda started directing and everything got all sappy. Still good just not as good.
C-c-c-combo breaker!
Taiyōken…!…?
Nope still wrong.
Billie, Billie, Billie, haven’t you learned anything? In order to learn a super hero’s real identity, you have to shoot her. Which should only knock her out, because super heroes are weird like that.
Ha, she went out the window.
Maybe she was delivered Ceasarian section?
Sal’s double-life is falling apart!
So Amazi-Girl is a Black Lattern eh… well were all doomed.
No way, her outfit isn’t dark enoough. Plus, the lantern symble isn’t infused with her logo. XD
Eh true, although it would be a better explanation on why Amazi-Girl is weak against light.
Beacuse at this point Amazi-girl can essentially be taken out by a mag-light
so….it’s come to this….
Please e-mail my dad a shark
Instead of shark e-mail contained bobcat.
Would not buy again.
xkcd is not funny.
Hey, my first comment.
#%@# you.
xkcd is sometimes funny.
XKCD is almost always funny and frequently touching and/or hilarious. And to answer your question I studied English in college and dropped out of my chemistry class. However I did marry a wonderfully brainy computer guy
Even in this universe, Sal has a thing for Danny. Dude’s a stud.
…you mean like… she always did? Her first love?
Sal hasn’t trademarked window escapes, Billie. This doesn’t prove anything.
IT’S BATMAN!
Somehow you screaming Batman and AppleJack screaming and pointing makes that comment better.
Okay, quick, somebody create a trademark application on Sal’s behalf.
YOU SAW NOTHING!
YOU KNOW NOTHING!
HOGAAAAN! *shakes fist*
She’s gonna look at the bed, and see Sal asleep. Calling it now.
She’s gonna look in the bed and see Joyce asleep. Calling it later
she’s gonna look in the bed and find them both asleep.
…i’m not calling that.
You might not call it, but I’ll ship it.
She’s gonna look at the bed, and see Mike and your mom. With his penis. For a nickel.
She’s gonna look at the bed and realise that she is in the wrong damn room.
Dina! You were there?
She is ALWAY there.
Always where? If you said behind the door, you win!
Not exactly what I was expecting, but close enough!
She’s going to look in her bed, and see herself sleeping.
Dun-dun-DUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
she’s going to look in her bed, and see that she was on earth this whole time!
She’s going to look under the bed and see Ryan sleeping with the fishes. Calling for backup.
So it WAS Colonel Mustard. In the kitchen. With a candlestick!
Why is it always the candlestick?
Because the revolver is too easy, and the lead pipe sounds too sexual.
No one wants to get involved with Colonel Mustard’s lead pipe.
Mr. Green, on the other hand…
I didn’t even know that Ms Scarlett had a lead pipe.
It’s more like a titanium tube, if you know what I mean…
Colonel Mustard has candle dysfunction.
Don’t laugh, lots of men get it at his age.
That’s what happens when you burn it at both ends.
We can wait half an hour and try again…or…
*beat*
*knocks out Kernanator*
Because of it was candlejack you’d have worry about the body being-
As an aside, I’ve got finals week, and a bunch of stuff to do, so don’t be too surprised if I don’t comment much, or at all, this week.
But. . .but . . . now what am I going to do? You are the only reason I follow the comments.
So what was Billie doing outside her room in the middle the night?
…more journalism, if you know what I mean?
FRIDGE MOMENT:
Wait, Billie had the tape recorder running… uh, the whole time? What was she gonna do, play back Danny’s O-sounds on a loudspeaker?
That would make an awesome college prank.
I don’t know about you, but unless it’s going to burn the house down, or invites an unwanted observer, I don’t take a single moment away from sexy time to turn things off.
I love Billie’s Lois Lane expression in the last panel.
The dorm room lights are pretty damn bright. Maybe they should consider switching to fluorescent lighting or a lower wattage.
Well this proves it. Clearly we can all see now that Sal IS Amazigirl
This the first time I said this but “Called it!”
Seriously, Billie?
To quote the great Sara Kim, “Will you just! Kiss her! Already?!”
Billie publishes an expose on the identity of Amazi-Girl aka Sal.
Unfortunately, she looks like a fool when Dorothy reveals Amazi-Girl is actually Amber.
Bitter and drunk. Billie stumbles into a church where Amazi-Girl is attempting to fight off an evil parasitic black Amazi-Girl outfit.
The suit bonds with Billie, feeding on her hate and rage and turning her into one of Amazi-Girl’s worst enemies.
As opposed to currently, where Billie is her own worst enemy…
Is.. Billie blushing? Or is that makeup. I wonder where she was in the middle of the freaking night too.. did she just come back from Joe’s?
She’s got post-Reagan rosy-cheek syndrome.
Old-school SP! fans know what I’m talking about.
I’m not “old-school” by any means, but having binged through the SP! archive, even I know what you’re talking about.
hello, let me introduce you to billie. she’s drunk all the time.
also, everyone in DoA has rosy cheeks.
I prefer the explanation that she’s part-Reagan.
And then it turned out Amber wasn’t actually Amazi-Girl.
Cuz everybody knows Faz is amazi-girl
Where things turn akward when it is revieled that it was Dina who was Amazi-girl all along
Please tell me Billie becomes Amazi-Girl’s arch-rival and supervillain.
Yes, this pleases me. She could make a dark version of her cheerleader outfit and be The Demotivator!
I’d still like to know how the two of them get out that window? Ever tried to wiggle thru one of those slot opening types, let alone ‘disappear’ thru one at the speed of light?
And then Billie woke up and couldn’t understand why she was in the bushes under her dorm room window wearing an Amazi-Girl costume.
“I’m never drinking bourbon again,” she said, then chugged back on her bottle of Jim Beam.
I’m impressed how dramatic and impactful this looks even within the four-panel layout. This is good visual… comic… stuff! Good job, Willis.
Agreed! Very B:TAS.
I would just love it if Sal walked in through the door behind her and asks what’s up, reducing Billie to a gibbering mess.
Sal…walking in through a door? Obviously an impostor.
Again, I got a lot of Batman vibes in this strip.
panel 1 is my favorite panel of all the panels willis has
paneleddrawn.panel.
I Bat you all Wonder why Billie would refer to Amazi-Girl as Supergirl.
Much better, I think
I’m betting Sal’s asleep in the top bunk and is going to wake up and demand to know what all the noise is about.
The light! It burns! Hssssssssss!
What comics have taught me:
Breaking and entering is OK if you are a costumed vigilante. It is not creepy and/or wrong.
Oh come on, it’s obviously Amber.
No its not. Amber wears glasses. I think it might be Joe.
Gotta be Dorothy. They look exactly alike!
I love you Billie. Never change, okay?
I’m waiting for Sal and Amazigirl to run into each other while trying to get into/out of the same window and getting into a super-hero etiquette argument.
Wow, Billie, that’s not bad guessing. You’re only off by a letter.
That “Ha” below was supposed to go here.
Cue Lex Luther shouting “WROOONG!” …again
Ha
Bahahaha.
Heh. Ha. Hahahahahaha
Nah, if Sal were Amazi-Girl, she’d totally have a cleavage window
You can literally see she doesn’t even vaguely resemble Sal, isn’t even the right race or skin tone, and you still think she’s Sal. I… Billie, I worry about you.
