Killer Expectations

Image
 Maybe different expectations than you think, though. Bug off, autocorrect. . . One person at least, anyway.  Where was Anne even hiding that crowbar anyway? Okay, so maybe two people wanted to see this. The other problem, by the way, Anne, is that Ava would totally slaughter you in any fight no matter what either one of you was armed with. You could have the Death Star and she could be unarmed and she'd still win. (It is a bit hard to aim at a five foot eight tall, one foot wide target with a gun the size of the moon, after all, but the opposite sure isn't a problem.)

Marriage In Mordor

Image
 . . . Anne and Kylo's, specifically. Discussions of where to place their wedding. One wonders if they plan to survive through the ceremony themselves. No, I'm not referring to Mordor. (When was the last time you saw laser death turrets in Mordor?) You'll find out.

We're Not Even Angry

  I'm being so sincere right now! Being a little bit of a - - never mind, Ava beat me to it.

Science, Ethics and Bad Clams

Image
  I apologize for the redundancy of using the word "happen" like I just did here, but it's in pen, I can't change it, and I couldn't think of anything better at the time. Still can't, in fact. Please note that Anne's tentacles are lighter in color in this panel than they were in the first. In panel one, they were color #134f5c on the color wheel; in panel two they are #45818e. I like the second one better. Also notice the coloring mistake on the ear.  On the bright side, the background is still nice. The jury is out on wether it was actually clams or not. Generally, once Anne is done with a piece of food, it's impossible to determine what it originally was. You may have noticed that throughout this comic I had Anne emote sort of like a cat with her tail and got it disastrously wrong. Ah well. I've never actually seen an angry cat anyway, not for several years at any rate, and it's probably just as well.

Test Failed

Image
 And HOW . You'll see what I mean in a minute.  Just one more panel. . . This one was fun to color :)

Testing, Testing. . .

Image
  NEVER a line you want to have to ask when you're in a comic strip. (Or a sci fi story. Although this strip involves a mad scientist, too. Never mind.) Ava is a biologist - I don't think of her as a scientist often, but she is. (And when I said "mad," I meant as in angry, not crazy. Ava is arguably the most sane member of the TSA cast. Which is not saying much.) Also, please note that in this second panel, Anne has more soup in her bowl than in panel one, even though Ava just said that the pot is in the kitchen and Anne hasn't moved. I'm a terrible artist, aren't I? Anne, Ava tests your food for poison before she takes a bite, remember? 

As You Like It

  Sorry about not getting around to putting this one up on Monday. Side note - can anyone tell me which play I'm parodying?
