“Last Night was an A1, tip-top, clubbing, jam fwap. It was a sandwich of fwap, on ecstasy bread, wrapped up in a big bag like fwapping disco fudge. Now if only I could control these FWAPPING MOOD SWINGS!”
If she(Amazi-Girl) was smart, she would have turned off the phone before giving it back, that way she can run away before Dotty’s phone finished turning itself back on.
Actually, saying she’s not immune to paparazi sounds like criticism, so there’s a good chance the statement is invalid in a ‘given A then B’ sort of way.
Amazigirl deleted two things – the photo and the shortcut to the camera app. By the time Dorothy has found it the night will have hidden Amazi in its cool embrace again.
Friggin’ annoying phone OS? The kind that takes long enough to boot up the camera option, that Amazi-Girl can turn and walk away from.
(I think she’d have up to a couple of seconds even without that, since the camera would need to adjust to the non-existent light. They’re not near a street lamp, either.)
No, no, clearly it was when she wasn’t involved in a train accident, didn’t have a plane crash onto her remote, uni-gendered island, turned down a trip to space and instead had a normal day at her school science lab.
She didn’t volunteer to be a test subject involving nanotechnology or get a mask that completely covers anything resembling a face. She wasn’t born a mutant, clone of a superhero, the son/daughter of Odin. And finally, she has never built anything IN A CAVE WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!!
Her family stayed home the day they were due to be mowed down in a mob firefight, she wasn’t selected to be a galactic policeman of any sort, the super-soldier serum intended for her got injected into lab rat which immediately died, and the decrepit hermits who might’ve taught her legendary mystic and/or martial arts took one look at her and decided to let their secrets go to the grave with them.
Nor did she meet an old wizard in a subway station, learn his name was an acronym for six powerful dieties and become the Wizard’s champion in this new age.
She also didn’t get afflicted with a rare illness as a child from being bitten by a green and her parents certainly didn’t use an untested serum, after which she did not turn green and her parents did not die in a boating accident.
Aw… I wanted to do Dr Strange. She also is not a spy with crazy skills picked up from her days in the circus, nor has she ever been exposed to Cosmic radiation.
also, she did not get hit in the FACE with a canister of radioactive toxic waste that fell off the truck that was illegally transporting it through the city!
Amber only fills in for Amazi-Girl when Dina is too busy answering call for vengence. Which is a rare event due to the super-contacts she needs to apply which are super difficult to get in.
Her powers in no way come from her skin tight super suit that is incredibly damage prone and thus has a habit of leaving her defenseless at inopportune times.
A cookie for anyone else who gets nothri’s reference!
She was not the princess of an ancient civilization that ruled the moon and nor was she the leader of any sort of sailor-themed heroine patrol. She didn’t find the book filled with tarot cards in her basement.
She didn’t accidentally find herself in the cockpit of any sort of transforming mecha during an alien invasion.
She hasn’t ever met a party of travellers in a tavern.
She was not raised in a forest with a race of eternal children and didn’t stop a man trying to get a set of magical golden triangles by pulling an ancient sword from a pedestal.
she was not molested as a kid, end up homeless, get befriended by a call girl and join the call girl corporation which also happens to be owned by one of the six most powerful business people in the U.S. and end up living the life of world class prostitution and espionage and being naturally good at deciphering the stockmarket and learning all sorts of fighting and being lovers with said powerful boss only to run away with first friend with a couple million dollars to live a normal life affter her friend dies from HIV and now living with her high school friend whom she loves but is an unrequisted love and also is stuck in a love triangle
She wasn’t given a suit and instruction manual by aliens that if she hadn’t lost the manual too would give her superman’s powers plus some, although she would never get flying down pat if she did…
If it’s made of a heavy enough material, such as leather, it wouldn’t need to be. Either way it takes a good bit of skill to do something like that with a cape.
That is indeed awesome. As much as I like Dorothy, I can’t blame Amber for wanting to protect her identity and privacy. Dorothy is only doing this so that she can add more to her own resume.
Any photos I take on my phone are immediately uploaded to Dropbox, Google+, and Ubuntu One, if the phone is online through cellular or WiFi. The photos would survive this.
When I delete stuff, I make a delete sound-effect with my mouth. When I deleted an old term paper that I didn’t even realize I still had on my laptop because its very existence offends my sensibilities (one file), I said “deletedeletedelete” as I did it.
The Duke wore gloves when he was asleep, and he wore gloves when he was awake, which made it difficult for him to pick up buttons and pins and the kernels of nuts, and to tear the wings from nightingales.
I can understand the need to keep her identity a secret, but seeing as how Dorothy could only get a picture from her back I doubt anyone could tell much from it. Maybe Amazi-Girl doesn’t want fame to go to her head.
Except they didn’t seem to have a problem with one another when they were both in the room and it was made fairly clear what the relationship between them was.
After the last strip I really thought she was going to destroy the phone, but that would be unlawful, and going WAY too far for a campus-level superhero (I mean breaking a fan’s $500 smartphone could earn you an anti-hero arc).
Deleting the picture is practical, and awesome!
It seems Dorothy and Billy will need teamwork to get the scoop on this elusive hero. But will it be able to top the last major story to hit this campus? Only time can tell. And of course “Time” is the name of the supervillain persona to be adopted by Daisy.
You know, I just realized now that in Shortpacked! Amazi-Girl is pretty much a normal person with an immunity to criticism surrounded by people with legit superpowers/supertech, but here she’s the closest thing to a real superhero that exists so far as we know.
They’re really just not a bad idea when you’re flying, and since Amazi girl does fly…yet…she should be fine. :3 Unless she stands close to a really big fan or she stands near a tornado.
Grammer errors. Grr. Look. As long as she doesn’t learn how to fly and she doesn’t get near anything that can suck her in and kill her she should be alright. D:< UGH! Gosh darn grammar errors!
I think it’s not the only problem with capes. Have you ever heard about Dollar Bill? His cape got caught in the revolving door of a bank, and he was shot to death
Amazi-Girl doesn’t realize that Dorothy can get the photo back with one of many freeware tools that can undelete data from the phone’s memory card in like one minute.
I don’t expect Dorothy to know about them, though.
I noticed that yesterday’s sound effect had an orange outline, and today’s sound effects have a red outline. It makes me want to go through the comic archives and compare sound-effect-outline-colours… but unfortunately, I don’t have the time.
Also, I sometimes just don’t understand the implication of motion lines. I have to assume that Dorothy’s phone is just amazed in panel 3 (or 2.5). Seems to fit with the theme.
Simply because I love the idea of a superhero leaving religious literature with the people they’ve saved, is there a chance Amazi will take on Joyce as a sidekick at any point?
I’m gonna predict that she can tell it’s Amber. Dorothy is clearly the smartest person in the comic and, let’s face it, the costume kind of makes it obvious that it’s Amber.
I’d read shortpacked for a couple years and never clicked over to this comic, Gordon McAlpin told me this comic was about IU, so as a Hoosier I had to read it all on my day off! There’s something simpler about the use of the Shortpacked characters here, Ethan isn’t as obsessive, Mike is even more humorous (as if that were possible), Amber has more to do than be the often roled Straight man.
It’s an interesting Maneuver using the same characters in another universe.
John Redcorn was pretty much the only contemporary Native representation I had in comedy growing up. Probably the funniest Native character in cartoon history and a lot of that was on Jonathan Joss' pitch perfect rezzy uncle performance. RIP to one of the best to ever do it.
today in #9chickweedlane i learned that, yes, lolly is so edda 2.0 that she's even wearing her mother's wedding dress as she gets married to Her Dad (But Taller)

the big disconnect that happens here is between the correct message for D politicians (especially in red states), which is “you’re right, this isn’t who you are, you’re better than that, vote differently next time”
and the actual truth, which is yes you did, fuck you
Raw milk has the opportunity to do the funniest thing
Ferric Fang@fangferric.bsky.social ⋅ 3d
RFK Jr celebrated the release of the MAHA report by downing raw milk shooters in the White House with influencer Paul Saladino. Hazards of raw milk include Listeria, Salmonella, Campylobacter, Yersinia, E. coli O157:H7, and now-- avian flu.
"ESPECIALLY willa!"
"dad, has it come to mind yet that if i was correct, actually, about belle being cuckoo for murderpuffs, that she was in fact trying to kill me, your human daughter, all this time"
"sorry, still only really care about the fish"

OH FWAP
Fwap! Fwap! Fwap!
Damn moths!… What did you think that was?
ROFL jen aside and fellice you fwap me up
People, please! Find someplace secluded to fwap. The rest of us don’t need to see that.
“Last Night was an A1, tip-top, clubbing, jam fwap. It was a sandwich of fwap, on ecstasy bread, wrapped up in a big bag like fwapping disco fudge. Now if only I could control these FWAPPING MOOD SWINGS!”
Now quick, take another picture while she runs away!
But then you won’t be able to see her FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!
Might get a good shot of her femurs though
you should sell it…
for a nickel
Oh that is awesome! Nice try Dorothy!
What’s to stop her from taking another picture now that she has her phone back?
the sheer awe of her some
And the sum of her awe.
If she(Amazi-Girl) was smart, she would have turned off the phone before giving it back, that way she can run away before Dotty’s phone finished turning itself back on.
Amazi-Girl is immune to criticism.
But not immune to the paparazzi.
Sure she is! You just saw it!
The real paparazzi use cameras with telescopic lenses.
Actually, saying she’s not immune to paparazi sounds like criticism, so there’s a good chance the statement is invalid in a ‘given A then B’ sort of way.
Amazigirl deleted two things – the photo and the shortcut to the camera app. By the time Dorothy has found it the night will have hidden Amazi in its cool embrace again.
Friggin’ annoying phone OS? The kind that takes long enough to boot up the camera option, that Amazi-Girl can turn and walk away from.
(I think she’d have up to a couple of seconds even without that, since the camera would need to adjust to the non-existent light. They’re not near a street lamp, either.)
That’s a much better idea than the suggestion I made yesterday about throwing the phone away.
Quick! Take another picture! Of her FACE!
You mean her FAAAAAAAAAACE?
Sorry, I needed that.
And your Gravatar is quite apropros.
Well that was rather badass. How long has Amber been Amazi-Girl, exactly?
ever since her parents didn’t die in an alley, her uncle picked her up from the bookstore and wasn’t the last survivor of her race.
Her powers also didn’t appear after touching a radio-active 3DS.
Radio-active indeed! Wireless technology is a blessing.
No, no, clearly it was when she wasn’t involved in a train accident, didn’t have a plane crash onto her remote, uni-gendered island, turned down a trip to space and instead had a normal day at her school science lab.
I’m trying to think what else we’ve missed.
she didn’t get exposed to gamma radiation, avoided mutated spiders,and her skeletal system was not replaced with a antimintium.
She also wasn’t exposed to cosmic radiation, nor did she participate in an experimental super-soldier program.
She didn’t volunteer to be a test subject involving nanotechnology or get a mask that completely covers anything resembling a face. She wasn’t born a mutant, clone of a superhero, the son/daughter of Odin. And finally, she has never built anything IN A CAVE WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!!!
Her family stayed home the day they were due to be mowed down in a mob firefight, she wasn’t selected to be a galactic policeman of any sort, the super-soldier serum intended for her got injected into lab rat which immediately died, and the decrepit hermits who might’ve taught her legendary mystic and/or martial arts took one look at her and decided to let their secrets go to the grave with them.
Nor did she meet an old wizard in a subway station, learn his name was an acronym for six powerful dieties and become the Wizard’s champion in this new age.
She also didn’t get afflicted with a rare illness as a child from being bitten by a green and her parents certainly didn’t use an untested serum, after which she did not turn green and her parents did not die in a boating accident.
She told her significant other he could fix his own damn watch.
She didn’t offer herself up as the herald of a world eating demigod in order to save her planet and thus become imbued with the power cosmic
She was not made in a lab out of various foodstuffs, paraphernalia, and CHEMICAL X.
Aw… I wanted to do Dr Strange. She also is not a spy with crazy skills picked up from her days in the circus, nor has she ever been exposed to Cosmic radiation.
Dammit, mongoose already did fantastic four.
Also she is in no way from Mars, and was never beamed to Earth in a weird scientist’s-basement experiment. And she doesn’t have any issues with fire.
She wasn’t found by a glowing alien ring that was sent by its bearer in desperation to find a successor
She didn’t steal devices from a museum where she worked as a nightwatchman and then travel back in time to become popular.
Also, when offered a choice of pills, she chose red.
She was also never struck by lightning and doused in electrified chemicals, nor is she the time-displaced grandchild of anyone who did.
also, she did not get hit in the FACE with a canister of radioactive toxic waste that fell off the truck that was illegally transporting it through the city!
If only she had Tromatons to help her sense and destroy EVIL!
She is not a deformed turtle without any pupils trained to be a ‘kicking rad’ ninja by a giant rat in New Yorks sewers.
this is one of the best comment threads in DoA history
Amber only fills in for Amazi-Girl when Dina is too busy answering call for vengence. Which is a rare event due to the super-contacts she needs to apply which are super difficult to get in.
She has never met an insane man with a blue box?
If the Doctor ever shows up in DOA the walls of reality will shatter and the Worlds of Walky will blend with our universe!
Not saying that’s a bad thing mind you…
Her powers in no way come from her skin tight super suit that is incredibly damage prone and thus has a habit of leaving her defenseless at inopportune times.
A cookie for anyone else who gets nothri’s reference!
She was not the princess of an ancient civilization that ruled the moon and nor was she the leader of any sort of sailor-themed heroine patrol. She didn’t find the book filled with tarot cards in her basement.
She didn’t accidentally find herself in the cockpit of any sort of transforming mecha during an alien invasion.

She wasn’t given a suit and instruction manual by aliens that if she hadn’t lost the manual too would give her superman’s powers plus some, although she would never get flying down pat if she did…
To everyone in this comment thread, I just want to say that I love each and every one of you.
When she discovered she had a vajajay… even if MN outlaws it, they are still useful in the other 49 states. I try to use one regularly.
Go A-G! Go A-G! Go A-G Go!
Who would win in a fight Batman or Amazi-Girl?
The fans, for being able to watch such an Awesome Fight of Awesomeness
I still gotta vote batman, man…
They wouldn’t fight, unless she made the mistake of trying to intrude on “MY CITY!”
Amazi-Girl would win if she had enough preparation time.
amazigirl cause shes got boobs.
appropriate Joe avatar is appropriate
But Batman has bat-nipples.
That is one useful cape!
It must has weights on the edges.
If it’s made of a heavy enough material, such as leather, it wouldn’t need to be. Either way it takes a good bit of skill to do something like that with a cape.
HELL YEAH AWESOME!!!
SICK NASTY!
Holy shit!
Is Amazing-Girl related to Spawn by any chance…?
Amazi-Girl is too awesome to even be REMOTELY connected to anything Spawn.
To be fair, the same goes for most of the world’s population.
…
I used to think Spawn was pretty keen.
Cool idea, pretty good look, pretty awful execution and story most places I encountered it.
That is indeed awesome. As much as I like Dorothy, I can’t blame Amber for wanting to protect her identity and privacy. Dorothy is only doing this so that she can add more to her own resume.
So very well played, Amber.
I dunno, I think Dorothy legitimately likes AmaziGirl and looks up to her in a way.
hee hee, “Dorothy…likes Amazi-Girl”. ; v ; <3
*shot*
What’s this? Something else to ship in addition to Billie/Ruth?
Wow. Cape must be made of something a little heavier than just a bedsheet to pull that off.
Either that or this is just playing out in her head (Willis, don’t you DARE)
it’s prolly made of titanium, 3 times tougher than steal
I wonder if Dotty instantly backs up everything in her own personal Cloud.
Billie hooked her up with the technology to mail it to the entire class.
Joe’d her FAAAAAACE for a nickle.
Any photos I take on my phone are immediately uploaded to Dropbox, Google+, and Ubuntu One, if the phone is online through cellular or WiFi. The photos would survive this.
Note Dorothy took one picture, but Amber deleted several.. probably the uploaded backups.
When I delete stuff, I make a delete sound-effect with my mouth. When I deleted an old term paper that I didn’t even realize I still had on my laptop because its very existence offends my sensibilities (one file), I said “deletedeletedelete” as I did it.
Are you a Cyberman in disguise, or are you just channeling Teru Mikami?
You are inferior. Man will be reborn as cyb — erm… I mean,,, Yeah. The second one. Terry McAmy. That guy.
Damn it.
The most impressive thing about this is that she used a touch screen while wearing gloves.
My god. You’re right! Someone had it to the superpower list!
Er, “add it” to the superpower list.
“With great power comes great responsibility.”
Yes, it’s a cliche, but it just doesn’t feel right if no one says (types) it.
With great vajajay, comes… well, pretty much anyone.
If she were to misuse such power, the world as we know it will be DOOOOMED!
Well gloves do exist during the winter season that are made so you can use the touchscreen of any smartphone/mp3 player. So there’s that.
I WILL RUIN YOUR ILLUSION OF AWESOME.
The Duke wore gloves when he was asleep, and he wore gloves when he was awake, which made it difficult for him to pick up buttons and pins and the kernels of nuts, and to tear the wings from nightingales.
There are touchscreens that don’t work by capacitance or resistance. My phone has such a touchscreen.
The gloves are made from conductive foam.
That is quite possibly the coolest thing ever.
At least until Dotty learns to record AG secretly from a distance.
Is that really cooler than getting knocking a phone out of someone’s hand with a cape?
Cooler no, smarter YES!
You mean awesomest.
Yes. Thank you for correcting this horrendous mistake.
Amazingest. You know. Cuz Amazigirl. Get it?
I think I’ll just shut up.
Amazi-girl is AMAZING.
Your avatar fits your comment like a glove.
your mom fit mike like a glove for a nickel.
Now at the Dollar Store: 20 Gloves!
By Grapthar’s Hammer: What a Savings
I can understand the need to keep her identity a secret, but seeing as how Dorothy could only get a picture from her back I doubt anyone could tell much from it. Maybe Amazi-Girl doesn’t want fame to go to her head.
Six seasons and a movie!
Oh thank god, someone else thought that.
Maybe she just does not like Dorothy?
Could be. God knows I don’t.
That is very possible since she might know Dorothy is Danny’s Ex.
Except they didn’t seem to have a problem with one another when they were both in the room and it was made fairly clear what the relationship between them was.
Ultra Stun! ULTRA STUN!
Clearly she saw an old picture of Dottie & Danny.
Enter crazy jealousy mode.
I can see it already. Dorothy will be hanging upside down from a building any night now.
Don’t know if this is an Iphone or a walkyverse version of an Iphone but doesn’t the phone have a picture backup function?
After the last strip I really thought she was going to destroy the phone, but that would be unlawful, and going WAY too far for a campus-level superhero (I mean breaking a fan’s $500 smartphone could earn you an anti-hero arc).
Deleting the picture is practical, and awesome!
It seems Dorothy and Billy will need teamwork to get the scoop on this elusive hero. But will it be able to top the last major story to hit this campus? Only time can tell. And of course “Time” is the name of the supervillain persona to be adopted by Daisy.
Nice one, Amazi-Girl.
When I take a picture on my phone, DropBox automatically uploads it to my MAGICAL CLOUD STORAGE.
Once again, technology RUINS EVERYTHING.
How do you delete photos from your magical cloud storage, if you are implying that someone who grabbed your phone would be unable to do so?
Amazi-Girl can breath in, I mean, use touch screens with gloves!
You know, I just realized now that in Shortpacked! Amazi-Girl is pretty much a normal person with an immunity to criticism surrounded by people with legit superpowers/supertech, but here she’s the closest thing to a real superhero that exists so far as we know.
I have never been as turned on by a webcomic character as I am right now.
How do I shot cape?
You don’t shot it, amateur! You “fwap” it.
‘How do I fwap cape’?
No, I think if that became a meme it would end up meaning something a tich different…

i wish to learn just such a skill. you’d never know when it could come in handy.
who ever said capes were a bad idea?
Etna Mode :T
They’re really just not a bad idea when you’re flying, and since Amazi girl does fly…yet…she should be fine. :3 Unless she stands close to a really big fan or she stands near a tornado.
Grammer errors. Grr. Look. As long as she doesn’t learn how to fly and she doesn’t get near anything that can suck her in and kill her she should be alright. D:< UGH! Gosh darn grammar errors!
Gall-durned kids, when’er ya gonna larn te spake proper ‘merican english?
I think it’s not the only problem with capes. Have you ever heard about Dollar Bill? His cape got caught in the revolving door of a bank, and he was shot to death
Amazi-Girl doesn’t realize that Dorothy can get the photo back with one of many freeware tools that can undelete data from the phone’s memory card in like one minute.
I don’t expect Dorothy to know about them, though.
See, this is why you don’t announce to the vigilante that you just took her picture.
She was blinded to this wisdom by the Amazi-ness.
I noticed that yesterday’s sound effect had an orange outline, and today’s sound effects have a red outline. It makes me want to go through the comic archives and compare sound-effect-outline-colours… but unfortunately, I don’t have the time.
Also, I sometimes just don’t understand the implication of motion lines. I have to assume that Dorothy’s phone is just amazed in panel 3 (or 2.5). Seems to fit with the theme.
Simply because I love the idea of a superhero leaving religious literature with the people they’ve saved, is there a chance Amazi will take on Joyce as a sidekick at any point?
So, we move from potential makeouts to potential angry makeouts.
Clearly, Amber has watched The Cape.
I concur! Why that show was cancelled, though… I do not understand.
Somewhere Danny has a boner and doesn’t know why.
I bet she practiced with the cape, better luck next time Dotty
She’s AMAZING.
And suddenly the fact that someone who can’t fly is wearing a cape makes sense.
You guys say “cape prowess”, I say “secret psychic powers.”
She shoulda tossed it higher, and Batman’d while Dorothy was looking up to catch it.
Yea! Fuck freedom of the press!
If you reclassify Dotty as paparazzi, the it doesn’t count.
Not since Amazagirl is a public figure, which is actually part of being superhero.
proper use of cape is important
I’m gonna predict that she can tell it’s Amber. Dorothy is clearly the smartest person in the comic and, let’s face it, the costume kind of makes it obvious that it’s Amber.
Batman would have approved of that.
There should be a ‘snag’ sound-effect in the third panel. Fwap-snag-delete-delete. Maybe finish it off with a ‘flip’ in the last panel.
I’d read shortpacked for a couple years and never clicked over to this comic, Gordon McAlpin told me this comic was about IU, so as a Hoosier I had to read it all on my day off! There’s something simpler about the use of the Shortpacked characters here, Ethan isn’t as obsessive, Mike is even more humorous (as if that were possible), Amber has more to do than be the often roled Straight man.
It’s an interesting Maneuver using the same characters in another universe.
Well done
She can still hack those pictures back if she burns a media image, provided she doesn’t wait too long…
Amazi-girl watched “The Cape!”
Well, I guess SOMEONE had to!
