        I like the story and the art (which is rare because its usually one or the other) and the characters…but some of them just shouldn’t mesh romantically, different universe or not s:

        I knew Danny was going to arrive with Amber when Dorothy was interviewing Joe, and I knew her reaction would be “: / so quick to get over me, huh?” …I’m glad the subject got changed, but I think we can all agree we’d rather not have her secret identity be discovered so soon >//<;

    We know that Amber isn’t Amazi-Girl as she isn’t immune to criticism.

    I suspect that Faz must therefore be Amazi-Girl.

      No, if that were the case, the instant Faz donned the Amazi-garb, he’d instantly be overcome with the urge to procreate with himself.

      In my book, the longer we go without seeing Faz, the better. He makes me cringe and I am enjoying his absence.

      Not that he’s not funny sometimes. But he is only sometimes funny, whereas he is always weird and creepy.

      She and Danny dated for a pretty substantial amount of time, and Joe is Danny’s best friend…

      …given Joe’s antics, I’m sure Dorothy got a few glimpses of “Lil Joe” here and there by accident. Whether or not those times were really accidents on Joe’s part, weeeeellllll…

    Alright, alright, I’ve got it all figured out. Danny is Amazi-girl, using the guise of a female to make his secret identity harder to trace!

    Now, I know what you’re thinking: “But Daeva, Amazi-Girl SAVED Danny in the strip they met, how could he be saved by himself?”

    A valid question, but that’s where my other theory comes into play. Amber is actually…a WereDanny!

          But that’s why it’s so clever! Really, it is a male character cross-dressing as a female superhero to better protect his secret identity. So Amazi-Girl is really Joe wearing a cunningly-engineered exo-skeleton to disguise his masulinity and to allow his to express his oft-denied feminine side!

    Two guesses on how this will go: (1) Danny gushes about how amazing Amazi-Girl is, and Amber struggles not to blush or (2) Danny gushes but describes Amazi-Girl as a 6-foot buxom amazon, while Amber struggles not to punch him.

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
603 U.S. 593, 630 (2024).
