Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
Since this is plain Girl Genius ( we have a seraglio for the other version), I'm putting my quatloos on having the beaus ( final number yet to be determined) drinking some kind of marker, then submitting their...um..."contestants" into an elaborate vat with a...ah...turkey baster. When the baby is born, it will then placed in a scanner which identifies the "fittest" father! For Science!

Given how this keeps spinning further and further out, I am beginning to suspect most of us will suffer Reader Existence Failure before we get to that point, if we ever do.

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
New comic
I love how Agatha it the only one looking exited.
Everyone else seems either nervous or ready to fight.
And the Vozzler is doing that thing where you give a really scary first impression.
Mostly obscured shadowy, not entirely human looking figure with glowy eyes?
That's either a fight or the friendliest guy ever.
My quatloos are on the latter."If it lives it can be killed.
If it is dead it can be eaten."

My theory on that (which isn't of my own invention, I just can't remember where I originally read it), is that iin the original outline Tarvek was originally supposed to die somehow, but that the Professors have decided to keep him and so introduced Martellus to take his place (and his death).

I'm figuring we're about due for two weeks of paper dolls, a Heterodyne Play, and a short bit with Othar, before we get the full revelation.

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
The Vlozzer would have said something, however. He already foresaw the end of the world while in the cetacean's belly and warned the Sparks so that they could avoid it. In this case, there was little reason to believe it would have ended badly.
It's true that, in general, it makes you wonder why reality still exists. Maybe Sparks have some extreme fugue state that triggers to reverse their actions and avoid annihilation of reality by their own hands (like how one Heterodyne destroyed his machines when they summoned otherworldly creatures). Maybe that's a side result of having top sparks like Klaus or Albia or Voltaire, or minions like Violetta. From this point of view, Gil looks like a worrisome successor... But then, his daddy did too summon horrible interdimensional monstrosities.Last edited by Vinyadan; 2020-11-27 at 10:51 AM.

Turns out he's Agatha's son with Gil and Tarvek (yes, both) displaced in time.

Actually, I'm thinking we are about to find out what the Dreen look like (at least , the younger ones).

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
Could always be faked. Who knows how many „They are beginning to trust me. Soon I will be freed and then I will conquer THE WORLD! MUHAHAHAHA!“ scenes we missed on account of him being imperceivable.
Nah, not really, it's just, the whole presentation of the cliffhanger is so... “a wild villain appears” that even if he hadn't been presented as a nice guy I would've bet against it.
The villain thing, not him being friendly."If it lives it can be killed.
If it is dead it can be eaten."

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
Vozzler is Lucrezia, copy #N for large N. You read it here first.
More likely those are the "I'm surprised by what just happened" eyes rather than the "I'm pure evil and about to start killing" eyes.
In fact, since we know time travel is on the table and Karl is out of sync with time, Karl may be one of the party's future selves.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
Most Sparks aren't talented enough. Of the ones who are, most of them don't have the resources/education to create a world-killing machine. The story is focusing on the absolute top tier Sparks, and I've always had the impression that they are strong Sparks even by that standard.
Additionally, this world-ending machine is being created by several of said Sparks working together. That never happens.

At least not for any length of time. It starts out well enough, then somebody gets bored and acts out and minions are thrown into the fray and it's all "Kneel Before Von Fogg!!".

I want to be annoyed they're delaying the cliffhanger, but this made me smile.
Good for my (Christmas) mood."If it lives it can be killed.

Re: Girl Genius XXVIII: Dancink! Ve is here for de dancink!
So the Foglios are descended from Oggie? Much becomes clear now. Soon the Experiments will manifest their Jagermonster powers, and then THEY'LL SHOW US ALL MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Or not. But anyway, cute strip.
We may not be in for a lengthy diversion - I can't blame them for serving up something frivolous while digesting Thanksgiving.This ... is my signature finishing move!

Considering the last side trek was for Ivo Sharktooth, PJ, I am quite fine with this.

Really, the only digression I have disliked was the "Extra: Nonsense from Professoressa Foglio", and mercifully that was only Monday and Tuesday.

Mental picture of our three favorite Jagermonsters standing in a field of the fallen singing The Chipmunks Christmas Song.
We've been good.
But, we can't last.
Hurry, Christmas,
Hurry fast.

They call it Christmas, where I'm from.
I kind of think, they would like this kind of family gathering.In a war it doesn't matter who's right, only who's left.

Honestly I'm just glad they're really keeping at the "Phil is one of Oggy's descendants" bit, digging in deep.

Well it's not Phil, just an expy of him. The real Phil is nowhere near that thin, for starters.
