Hope you all had a lovely Halloween and are enjoying the Day of the Dead. Happy day-after-Halloween tummy-ache. Happy anniversary to Dan and Leslie. And if you want a damn happy good read, go check out Emily Carroll‘s “Face All Red.”
And for those who read “Golden Age,” Ben dressed up as Growp. Nice job of hiding his beard under the turtleneck.
And this weekend come and say hello! I’ll be at the TopatoCo booth at NEWW.
YES! Awesome page. Also, I love how she stops at the end with a worried look on her face and asks for a second opinion.
Yuri’s quite direct in her answers, isn’t she?
Also, Day of the Dead is technically tomorrow. Today is All Saint’s Day.
Lol! @Frank, I know! It’s one of the absurdities of time zones. On the west coast it’s still Halloween, but on the east coast it’s just turned Dad of the Dead. 🙂
Awesome and unexpected!
When Yuri connected to that direct line, I couldn’t help but think of Robocop. Awesome work as usual!
Martina’s getting all badass. If only her papi could see this.
“Anyone else want to negotiate?”
It feels like this comic is over the halfway point and that kinda makes me sad because I like it a lot. :C
@Meirnon, actually, the current plan is for it to be three books. One per year, approximately. What you’re seeing now is only the wrapping up of the first book. But it’s only a subplot of the larger story.
Oh, and thanks! 🙂
@Chris: Uh, no. What I meant was:
Oct. 31 is Halloween
Nov 01 is All Saints’ Day
Nov 02 is The Day of the Dead
Don’t ask me why it’s like that, though. It took me years to get it right.
@Frank, oh goodness, you’re right. I’ve been working too long hours and doing hospice care to your cat and am totally scattered. Apologies. 🙂
Well, when it comes to comics… it’s only this one, MS Paint Adventures and Bear Nuts that make me “lol”, “rofl”, “lmao”, or any permutation thereof on a regular basis. My family thinks I’m going psychotic or something sometimes when I read this. 😛
I like how Yuri just stays jacked in during the whole thing. Obviously the selection process for the humans was spot on. The two of them stayed cool under pressure.
And I’m with Meirnon, glad to hear there is plenty left. I keep remembering that Martina is supposed to die. (Nooooooooo!) I want her to pull a Gandalf and show up at the end to see her father.
Funny, a popular character in another webcomic died recently, and someone talked about “pulling a Gandalf” there too. Must be something going… 😉
Rereading this today, and the “Catch” sound effect is making me giggle.

Up down Up left Boom.
This observation is coming a bit late (both in how many pages have since past, and how many years since they’ve been posted — the latter I can’t help since I’m reading this comic for the first time. 😛 )
but back when Yuri was first injured the first time, she needed a metal cap on her right shoulder, yes?
Now that all her limbs have been replaced with metal, it seems she miraculously has a new fleshy right shoulder again.
