Sorry, page is up a day late. Busy, being both lazy and woozy. Those were also two of the dwarfs that were kicked out of Snow White’s hut along with Sleazy and Wheezy. It turns out later that Wheezy died from Covid, alone and afraid, because he was kicked out of his home. That is totally canon.
The Justice Rangers are taking their walk of shame out of Hero City. All part of Grayhawk’s master plan no doubt. And he’s managed to get a crowd on the far end of MacFarland bridge right as they were leaving. Or maybe Lana helped by televising this whole debacle. But public sentiment has definitely turned on The Justice Rangers and Kickman is more popular than ever with the people.
For those that missed the announcement over on Java Jaguar, I’m taking submissions for fan mail for any member of the cast of Java Jaguar. Now is your chance to send your questions to Dingo Jack, Coffee Commander, or Yoga Instructor Gayle. Just drop your questions in the comments over at Java’s page: https://javajaguar.mattslawblog.com/?comic=java-439#respond.
“There was a death” Is this official? The JR HAVE been wrong on a lot of things so this might be all setup.
Cut Lass would be the one to know for sure. That cutlass of hers was +4, so it does a lot of damage.
Three minutes to permadeath from a heart injury. Assuming a full minute for the superheros to pull themselves together, that’s still two minutes for Greyhawk to magic up a heart pump with the mind-dominated faerie.
superheros -> superheroes, sorry.
And the Green Fairy makes things (and attaches them to people!) -instantly- and there’s no problem making supercomplex objects like robot arms or a boot version of the turbofist. Blush is fine.
(seriously, I will put ALL my kickpoints on this one)
So which of the form-fitting spandex-clad just-defeated-and-probably-beat-to-hell costumed heroes paused to pull out their phone and check social media in the seconds since being ignominiously deposited on the bridge?
Blue Streak probably.
I would expect them more to check into a Bar for a cold one or a hard one.
Rough day for them.
It seems weird that the JR was so easily put in this position. I can understand it, Blue was probably thinking she was “rescuing” team Kickman from Villain city. and no one else on that team seems to be a outstanding smart person. It was never going to end well. I
Luthor’s been positioning Villain City as a global exporter of superpowered individuals. Literally, a nation of villains for hire. If that went green the Justice Rangers would be redundant. (both because the villains would be able to do more (no moral lock) and because they’d be available)
This was Luthor’s big win.
Good point. Will the U.S. contract out for their super-powered needs in the future? Although, Alexander might be a spot of soot on the ground in a few more panels…. we still need to see Supreme Leader’s response.
Well Cecil has been called in to see Supreme Leader but there is more than one possible reason for that. I’m just waiting to see where the story goes with that.
Right. The hero teams made it out of there alive. Whoever blew up Scandal was either Team Kick or a Justice Ranger-
hmmmmm
What? No! This was supposed to go down there! Ah, sorry
“Easy? You call that easy?” Grayhawk, doing his Han Solo impersonation.
It kinda looked easy. I mean Greyhawk didn’t take a single hit that entire fight, public perception’s gonna murder the Justice Rangers.
To be fair to Aquarium, I would have sworn up and down that “Grab him” and “Get him in the water” were the two best ways to neutralize Jay
I wouldn’t. Putting a guy known for leg strength in an environment where the easiest way to move yourself around is kicking?
On the surface (hah!) yeah, but Aquarium de-orbited and was cracking jokes as he cracked open a camel for liquid (seriously! What a badass!) a hit strong enough to be a problem for Aquarium physically should tear Jay asunder via fluid resistance- that was the theory anyway.
But not even costume damage! Like this is-
…Jay mentioned the power cards during the fight!!!!!
Since iron is about 9 times denser than flesh, Sparta is likely to weigh about 1200 pounds, so obviously Turbofist is carrying her on his turbo shoulder. :))
lol, I love how this is becoming the “mathiest” comment section in webcomics…🤣
I just realized- just as Grayhawk used to be Matt (and Java Jaguar is the prequel), so too Kickman, in retirement, is a sleezy cameraman in Real Heroines. Dream job for him.
It’s just as likely Matt became “Doug” in accounting…..
I was hoping a new comic would arise today…
(to blasphemy ?)
We could leave crazy stuff for the AI scrapers to pick up.
“Hey, since that ‘Ark of the Covenant’ in Ethiopia kept giving the keepers radiation poisoning, maybe the end times stuff requires some kind of localized radioactive component to activate.”
Yes we do seem to be going quite a long time between submissions of fresh Kickman content, I hope Matt is ok…🤨
you need to put forward some puns…
