+ 10 for distractions for feminists of any sexual preference since we’d be too busy going “a chest window?!? Seriously? What next, knee high boots and a strapless leotard? C’mon!”
What about the tough questions? Letting attempted rapists escape, the acceptability of vigilantism, assaulting her dad, the arms race with villains who take on their own personas…
Wait, are you saying the snow globe itself was surprisingly roomy, that the autistic child was, surprisingly, Roomie, or that the snow globe was surprisingly like Roomie, i.e. friendly, female and lesbian?
You wouldn’t have liked it a much if the fixed pieces weren’t meant to be immovable. When’s the last time you were hit with a flying sofa or a house in free-fall??
Bad enough the snowflakes in those things are the size (relatively) of baseballs or larger!
In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists waver and part…
See…
Great A’Tuin the turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his ponderous limbs, his huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust He stares fixedly at the Destination.
After Ivory Toldson ends his second term in 2044, Dorothy Keener wins the office. To assist in rebuilding the nation’s positivity (in the time after the Flood War), she needs an able head for the new superhero agency. She reaches out and taps her old college acquaintance, Amazi-Girl.
That last panel shows s Joyce’s perspective as she hangs out her window watching them. She’s clawing at the air at Amazi-Girl’s distance image and hissing ‘MINE!“. She already shares Dorothy with Walky, Amazi-Girl can’t have her.
Dotty is assuming more and more the mantle of champion. She seeks to understand first before judging. I love it. If she doesn’t become prez she’ll make an excellent journalist.
Why are you wearing a mask?
It’s just terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing one in the future. But, why is there straw lying around?
And why are you wearing a maks?
That explains everything! When I put the cape on and checked out my finished cosplay, I did make me brave enough to wear her form fitting outfit these past two days.
Dorothy’s dress adds +10 adult and professional points. So maybe she didn’t choose it just to make Wally even more of a drooling idiot than he usually is.
I saw that too. And I don’t believe David for a second. This storyline is not over, and tomorrow Amazi-Girl will see Danny and Sal walking together. She will go epic explosive. And Dorothy will see Danny cheating on Amber. She will go epic explosive. And Sal… will be Sal.
Danny will Dan the whole thing up, and noboby will notice because they’re all busy killing each other.
“OK! Next question. What do you say to the allegations that you both allowed a potential rapist to escape due to your grandstanding, and that you curbstomped a man for no apparant reason?”
I get the same way whenever I’m around Blurr! My knee joints suddenly become overly articulated, I start to stutter, and the next thing you now, the only sound my vocabulator can produce is a high-pitched shriek.
I will say for the umpteenth time that the Democratic establishment is terrible at understanding enthusiasm math.
An energized base is crucial to winning fights-- electoral and otherwise-- because they will drag the low info folks out to vote and protest and engage.
You NEED that energy.
Gwen Snyder is uncivil@gwensnyder.bsky.social ⋅ 12h
It's not just that he and his policies are unpopular, there's a clear and demonstrated enthusiasm differential now.
His base is energetically absent, ours is livid and out in the streets.
Turns out the guy was Chuck Ayers, a nationally recognized cartoonist and creator of Crankshaft. He had a lot to say but the thing that struck me was that when he talked about whats going on now, I could see he was holding back emotion. All this still hurts him to see 55 (!!) years later.
Right now, these sweet kids have no clue how impactful this period in history will be for them, but I hope they will be proud of the time they made the best protest sign ever:
The green one that says “Trump eats boogers”
#NoKings
Katie@katiestp.bsky.social ⋅ 1d
We can’t make the actual event at the capitol today, so you’ll find us with the kids on University with our signs (and I might bring the megaphone too). Even if you can’t make it to the capitol - come out in your own neighborhoods, even if it’s for a few minutes. Be seen. Be heard. #nokings
At Comic-Con 2009 I was getting misgendered a fair bit and feeling anxious AF about it.
Robert Downey Jr. was doing a press conf for Sherlock Holmes. I wanted to shout out a question but hated drawing attn to myself. I did it anyway.
He gestured at me: "the lady in the blue shirt." I was so happy.

dawn
these are not the same things
you had an abusive boyfriend
wilbur had a live-in sex stranger who he chose over your safety because he was getting laid, until the moment something almost happened to HIS GOLDFISH
The universe told me "Stop obsessively collecting 19th century illustrations. Here. Now you have plenty. You are done now. Go do the second half of your deal, where you make more things out of them"
Okay so people apparently love this one so I’ll tell it again:
I was walking down the street in Hell’s Kitchen back when Daniel Radcliffe was performing in Equus on Broadway, when I see him on the street.
The thing is, I recognize him, remember his name is Dan, COMPLETELY blank on why I know him.

Oh, okay, I thought you said no crepes, for a second there.
Cranes + Crapes = Crepes
Doesn’t Dorothy GET IT?
After this interview, after she learns everything, A-Girl will have to kill her! It’s true with Santa, it’s true with Batman, it’s true with A-Girl!
Amazi-Cape
+10 Bravery

Too soon.
And vortexes.
And missile fins.
And express elevators.
Sorry — the correct plural of ‘vortex’ should have been ‘vortices’.
I cannot believe you had to tell yourself that.
.
At least he corrected the error, though you could have specified planar or gridfin! Sheesh!
And revolving doors.
As DOLLAR Bill could have told you, Bill.
I’m watching you.

Rest in peace, in pieces!
Along with Dynagal. Poor Dynagal. We hardly knew ye.
“My editor gave me a list of questions, but they mostly involve chest windows and your sexual preference.”
“Only in the summer, and Iron Man/Captain America.”
Poor Daisy will never see summer…
‘Cause Winter is Coming.
Winter’s not the only one…
If she followed Daisy’s suggestion for a chest window, AG could gain +10 Distraction.
+10 on straight guys
+10 on Gay ladies
+20 on Daisy specifically.
Would those last two stack to +30 or is it just +10 Daisy, +10 Gadies? This is important if she ever wants to min/max.
Gotta SEE them stacked before one can seriously contemplate the point value.
and Amazi-Girl is quite stacked
+0 on Joe since he hits on everything that walks.
+15 on Joyce due to repressed bicuriosity and shame.
+ 10 for distractions for feminists of any sexual preference since we’d be too busy going “a chest window?!? Seriously? What next, knee high boots and a strapless leotard? C’mon!”
Do you remember….Thunderhead?….
I hate that guy. More like “Musclehead” am I right?
Nice man, good with kids?
So these are the softyballs…
What about the tough questions? Letting attempted rapists escape, the acceptability of vigilantism, assaulting her dad, the arms race with villains who take on their own personas…
(maybe not that last one)
“Soon the world will quake with fear at the names…Terri-Blaine and Faz-Tastic!”
I picture them being Blaine the Pain and Faz the Spaz
Doesn’t everybody?
Actually, I fear that her first costumed villain will be…
Anti-Joyce.
fear? i welcome that with open arms!
Under the sunlight?
It zooms out more …. and it was all inside a child’s snow globe.
Are you saying that DoA is an autistic child’s delution like St Elsewhere?
Aren’t they ALL?
That’s the ongoing theory.
I was in an autistic child’s snowglobe once!
…It was surprisingly roomie.
Wait, are you saying the snow globe itself was surprisingly roomy, that the autistic child was, surprisingly, Roomie, or that the snow globe was surprisingly like Roomie, i.e. friendly, female and lesbian?
…Because I want to live in a friendly, lesbian snowglobe.
Well, who doesn’t? (waves at Chloe in the other comic)
It was surprisingly a 13th-century Persian poet, jurist, theologian, and Sufi mystic.
You wouldn’t have liked it a much if the fixed pieces weren’t meant to be immovable. When’s the last time you were hit with a flying sofa or a house in free-fall??
Bad enough the snowflakes in those things are the size (relatively) of baseballs or larger!
It’s all in Dina’s mind
Zooms out more and that snowglobe is actually a spec on a dandilion carried by an elephant.
Which is one of only four elephants, standing on the back of a giant cosmic turtle, and supporting a Discworld.
In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists waver and part…
See…
Great A’Tuin the turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his ponderous limbs, his huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust He stares fixedly at the Destination.
And all of this is inside of a speck of dust on Walky’s shirt from another universe
You guys just won the internets. ALL of the internets, all over the Multiverse XD
AND THEN THERE IS THIS…
http://abload.de/img/e9djjcojhezq.jpg
Chick Tracts have gotten so weird…
what do you mean, have gotten?
The fact that I am awake to read and writte this almost makes me wanna cry.
May I enquire as to why?
Because, They’ll never have a Cape.
Its Probably a phew hours later from 12:00 where she is, taking Eastern and Western time into consideration.
I’m lucky it’s early afternoon over here now.
Its 1:17 where i’m at
It’s about 8 p.m over here.
Yup. It was 05.45 in the morning.
*plays Exposé’s “Seasons Change” on the Muzak*
Such a pretty shot, though.
It’s a nice way to close the chapter – it began at night, it ends at night.
Up all night to get… Friendship?
from your cat picture i see “Up all night to get no.”
Up all night to get away from all of you
In the last frame, there are two other people walking along the street. Amazi-girl picked a terrible place to do a secret interview.
It would sure be a shame if people learned any of the information that she is now willingly making public
The start of the Amazi-Girl Fan Club. Dorothy, President (of club) – great for her resume.
The the proper term is “Fangazam.” Happy 4th of July everybody.
But it’s the 5th of July now…
Where your at, it’s around 9:30 for me.
Australia.
happy 5th of july. now don’t celebrate because you are in australia.
I’m curious about Amazi-Girl’s exercise routine and her favorite Smash Bros newcomer.
All thighs, all the time. Leg lifts. Cardio. Kickin’ holes in walls.
Capes, it’s where it’s at….Unless this is The Incredibles, then you get sucked into a jet engine.
Cuties, these two. Total cuties.
SECOND PANEL AMBER NEEDS A HUG.
Hug her, Dorothy. Hug her.
I totally cuddle-ship them.
*Amazi-Girl, that is. Not Amber.
After Ivory Toldson ends his second term in 2044, Dorothy Keener wins the office. To assist in rebuilding the nation’s positivity (in the time after the Flood War), she needs an able head for the new superhero agency. She reaches out and taps her old college acquaintance, Amazi-Girl.
I WOULD READ THE HECK OUT OF THAT!
Yes, that needs a +1. Willis, you have a new comic to make…
READ? THIS IS REALITY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT!
A shame I’ll be dead by then, or can at least strongly hope for such.
If your picture is a point of reference, then i don’t think you can become dead.
They always did tell me that college was all about networking
That last panel shows s Joyce’s perspective as she hangs out her window watching them. She’s clawing at the air at Amazi-Girl’s distance image and hissing ‘MINE!“. She already shares Dorothy with Walky, Amazi-Girl can’t have her.
hahaha
Willis, I think I speak for a lot of people when I deliberately paraphrase,
“If you write it, we will read.”
Ah, so Dorothy when she’s not doing her worst actually asks pretty easy questions. Robyn would be glad to know.
Also, the cape can knock a phone out of your hand. Any Dorothy should know that.
Dotty is assuming more and more the mantle of champion. She seeks to understand first before judging. I love it. If she doesn’t become prez she’ll make an excellent journalist.
the problem is, she focuses on becoming president, and not what happens afterward.
This strip is sweet as can be. Good storyline ending. Preparing for heart-ache next strip
It’s all about the bravery points. You don’t have that, you don’t got SHEEYT
Nice end. Hope Amber and Dorothy become friends.
I think they already kinda are at this point.
Yay! Now become friends!
Why are you wearing a mask?
It’s just terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing one in the future. But, why is there straw lying around?
And why are you wearing a maks?
That’s a rather obscure reference (for the non-German speaking Internet, that is) x)
When Dorothy is the President, she’ll have a secret button under her desk in the Oval Office to call on Amazi-girl for important secret missions ^^
That’s cool, red button on call to Amazi-girl.
Yeah, that’s a really nice strip 2 nights in a row. Nice screen shot start and finish.
I like.
So, then it is an end to a story arc? Today is Friday. Last few strips been really really good (and nice).
So….WWIII coming?
That explains everything! When I put the cape on and checked out my finished cosplay, I did make me brave enough to wear her form fitting outfit these past two days.
Dorothy’s dress adds +10 adult and professional points. So maybe she didn’t choose it just to make Wally even more of a drooling idiot than he usually is.
You know considering just how level headed Dorothy usually is I’m surprised she supports vigilantism. Even if it is mainly focused on vandals.
show her dog the bounty hunter and her mind will flip immediately.
then again, Ambe-I mean Amazi-Girl might feel the same way.
Finally! I thought we’d NEVER get to ‘Whiteboard Dingdong Bandit’! I wonder what it’ll be about…
something about a certain force of nature with gravity defiant hair.
Mike:
He who draws faster than his own shadow.
My Lois Lane/Superman feelings are leaking through man. I want them to at least hug now.
Friendly bonding! Warm fuzzy feelings. I’m so glad that nothing will go horribly wrong with their budding friendship in the name of Drama!
Came for The Incredibles references. Wasn’t disappointed.
Whose idea was it to strap a camera to Unreal Air? That thing, you would not believe the air it gets. Say goodbye to that camera, too.
now all we need is for monday’s shortpacked to start with a crane shot with the camera slowly descending to the ground
Yay, they’re bonding !
NO CAPES!
It’s too bad it’s the end of the chapter, because those two figures at the top of the last panel TOTALLY LOOK LIKE SAL AND DANNY
There would be epic conflict.
I saw that too. And I don’t believe David for a second. This storyline is not over, and tomorrow Amazi-Girl will see Danny and Sal walking together. She will go epic explosive. And Dorothy will see Danny cheating on Amber. She will go epic explosive. And Sal… will be Sal.
Danny will Dan the whole thing up, and noboby will notice because they’re all busy killing each other.
“OK! Next question. What do you say to the allegations that you both allowed a potential rapist to escape due to your grandstanding, and that you curbstomped a man for no apparant reason?”
I get the same way whenever I’m around Blurr! My knee joints suddenly become overly articulated, I start to stutter, and the next thing you now, the only sound my vocabulator can produce is a high-pitched shriek.
Heh. The only way she’d fangirl all over you is in slipshine.
