Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
I don't get why people keep saying he has it coming or something bad happening to him would be karma.
So far, I think he's pretty funny. The author's attempt to make him inherently dislikable is failing.
Oh, hey. Interesting. There was another update. Let me read that real quick.
Okay. He's a little bit of a prick. He can't even blame all of it on a quest to avenge his family.
I'll also say that it had to be pointed out to me that Cthillia was making a Star Wars reference. My first guess was that Cthillia was making the kind of reference that would trigger the homophobia in a stereotype like Cooter.
So yeah alright, at the same he is rude and vulgar. But that is a seperate issue, and the only thing he got comming from that is people not wanting to talk with him.thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Yeah he isnt after "a" monster, he is after all of them. He only tolerates self loathing monsters because they want to kill themselves.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Of the supers and 'monsters' working with Sciona, how many were seen at the Council meeting? Were any besides Cthillia part of Deus' group we saw in the flashback?
The first question is my main one, as I'm having trouble telling the different vamps apart and I find it really interesting that some members of the Council are sorta playing both sides.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Both of the vampires were in the peanut gallery. I don't remember seeing any of the others, although Wyrmil might have been one of the background characters.
Only Chthillia was in Deus' group in Galytn. Incidentally, this means our supervillain gangs are 2 for 2 for ties to Deus.

Unless of course Deus has his own plans and his guy is there working for him. He is sneeky that way.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
I am at this point pretty certain we will see on of Deus's henchmen in every following story arc, just to leave it hard to judge what he is actually up to.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Wow. This feels weird. The comic used to crawl along at a snail's pace, but now it's been upgraded to tortoise speed. I'm not sure how we'll possibly cope without seeing every last detail of Sydney's life.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Im still hoping for a bit of a training montage to show the majority of this flashback being skipped over. Maybe have another arc that covers her graduation and some hijinks that take place then, preferably with her and the other newbies for a change. I still like the idea of her being a team leader for the rookies. Basically, they get the low priority/danger missions, sydney is both in charge and backup for the group like maxima on overwatch because she should, in theory, be able to handle anything they stumble over. This gets them all some rl experience, gets her some command experience in low threat scenarios, and in general is just a good thing in between vehemence level fights which cant happen too often or else it kinda counters the background details of the setting where there just arent that many threats of that magnitude out there. (We see like, 6) Unless this goes primarily fantasy dealing with the supernatural of course.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Frankly, I wish Dave would go back and delete those first couple comics. Not only does the art style suck, it doesn't mesh with the rest of the strip in tone. Plus, it would remove the 'long flashbacks suck, when are we getting back to the present' thing.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
To me its more that there is little left to really explain. As an example, if we saw anvil with a prosthetic arm, we would want to see how that happened in the flashback. But there really isnt anything left to explain from a flashback point of view. There isnt even a sense of urgency that needs to be explained because she is casually playing d&d then showing up for her shift at work basically. We already got how she ended up joining, who these people are, etc etc etc. The closest thing to needing an explanation is her rank of corporal but im fairly sure thats a pretty basic thing in the military, specialists often get an automatic bump of a couple paygrades upon graduating from basic. I could see concentrating a bit on her orbs and training in how to use them just so we dont get comics like, "Dont forget I can fly too max!" in order to ham fistedly tell us what her orbs do while the storyline progresses.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
At this rate we should be there by 2025....
True. OTOH, because the "good" vampires seem to be maintaining the illusion of non-existence, the only evidence there is of vampires tends to be bad (looking at what has leaked historically).
Which actually leads to an interesting thought. Maybe the (relatively recent) trend of vampires being "good" and "sexy" was actually started by the council to try and undo some of the previous damage. Too bad someone screwed up with Twilight."That's a horrible idea! What time?"

Maybe they will get into Sydney's and Krona's powers possibly being related now. I hope.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Yeah, much the same way that "absolutely" is no longer used to indicate absolute value/absolute certainty as much as fairly accurate value/fairly likely certainty. That's just the way it goes.
EDIT: For an additional comparison, "very" once was mostly used the way we think of "verily" being used (namely, indicated exactness/preciseness, ala "of my very own" or "very much so", or indicated truthfulness, ala "the very same"), but has largely become a word used to add emphasis to other words/phrases, even in a metaphorical context where the words' original definitions of truth and exactness aren't really applicable.Last edited by AvatarVecna; 2017-06-08 at 04:55 PM.

Yeah, the Spectrum Spheres are ludicrously OP for a beginner, and we've been repeatedly told she's going to get more powerful.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
Controversial opinion: I don't really care how strong Sydney gets. This is a comic, not a game. Power is not inherently bad. It doesn't automatically make her a Mary Sue, and it's not necessarily a problem. What matters is the story. Yes, story is conflict, but that doesn't have to be physical altercations, not even in a superhero comic. You just have to know how to write it. All the best Superman stories are the ones that focus on his human side, his emotional vulnerability.

Re: GrrlPower III: Crisis Of Infinite Filler Comics
I got a clue for some of you people. Finding out where the orbs came from in no ways means more power for Sydney.
