  1. Jen Aside

    NO CAPES

    or crane shots

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      She just needs to stay away from jumbo jet intakes is all.

      1. Orion Fury

        Or anchors.

        1. Aik

          Or rocket launchers.

      2. gwalla

        Or revolving doors.

        R.I.P. Dollar Bill

    2. TachyonCode

      Oh, okay, I thought you said no crepes, for a second there.

      1. GoldStarz

        Cranes + Crapes = Crepes

    3. Ivan

      Doesn’t Dorothy GET IT?

      After this interview, after she learns everything, A-Girl will have to kill her! It’s true with Santa, it’s true with Batman, it’s true with A-Girl!

  2. Nono

    Amazi-Cape

    +10 Bravery
    Weak against jetplanes

    1. Yotomoe

      Too soon.

    2. Bill

      And vortexes.
      And missile fins.
      And express elevators.

      1. Bill

        Sorry — the correct plural of ‘vortex’ should have been ‘vortices’.

        1. Ivan

          I cannot believe you had to tell yourself that.
          .
          At least he corrected the error, though you could have specified planar or gridfin! Sheesh!

      2. Reltzik

        And revolving doors.

        As DOLLAR Bill could have told you, Bill.

        1. Mr. Random

          I’m watching you.

    3. etybolik

      RIP in pieces Syndrome.

      1. Nono

        Rest in pieces in pieces?

        1. Tchoc

          Rest in peace in pieces

        2. Jackson

          Rest in peace, in pieces!

      2. Annie

        Along with Dynagal. Poor Dynagal. We hardly knew ye.

  3. Doctor_Who

    “My editor gave me a list of questions, but they mostly involve chest windows and your sexual preference.”

    “Only in the summer, and Iron Man/Captain America.”

    1. Yotomoe

      Poor Daisy will never see summer…

      1. Shadow12000

        ‘Cause Winter is Coming.

        1. My Throbbing Tumescence

          Winter’s not the only one… 😉

  4. Plasma Mongoose

    If she followed Daisy’s suggestion for a chest window, AG could gain +10 Distraction.

    1. Yotomoe

      +10 on straight guys
      +10 on Gay ladies
      +20 on Daisy specifically.

      1. Shadow12000

        Would those last two stack to +30 or is it just +10 Daisy, +10 Gadies? This is important if she ever wants to min/max.

        1. Ivan

          Gotta SEE them stacked before one can seriously contemplate the point value.

        2. Jen Aside

          and Amazi-Girl is quite stacked

      2. Suitora

        +0 on Joe since he hits on everything that walks.

        +15 on Joyce due to repressed bicuriosity and shame.

      3. Annie

        + 10 for distractions for feminists of any sexual preference since we’d be too busy going “a chest window?!? Seriously? What next, knee high boots and a strapless leotard? C’mon!”

  5. Marc in MN

    Do you remember….Thunderhead?….

    1. Mangulwort

      I hate that guy. More like “Musclehead” am I right?

    2. Yhelta

      Nice man, good with kids?

  6. Deathjavu

    So these are the softyballs…

    What about the tough questions? Letting attempted rapists escape, the acceptability of vigilantism, assaulting her dad, the arms race with villains who take on their own personas…

    (maybe not that last one)

    1. Doctor_Who

      “Soon the world will quake with fear at the names…Terri-Blaine and Faz-Tastic!”

      1. maxyai

        I picture them being Blaine the Pain and Faz the Spaz

        1. Mass Confusion

          Doesn’t everybody?

    2. Deanatay

      Actually, I fear that her first costumed villain will be…

      Anti-Joyce.

      1. whatintheliteralfuck

        fear? i welcome that with open arms!

        1. ninja_jesus

          Under the sunlight?

  7. Wonder Wig

    It zooms out more …. and it was all inside a child’s snow globe.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      Are you saying that DoA is an autistic child’s delution like St Elsewhere?

      1. Stephen Bierce

        Aren’t they ALL?

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          That’s the ongoing theory.

      2. Hoboturtle

        I was in an autistic child’s snowglobe once!

        …It was surprisingly roomie.

        1. APersonAmI

          Wait, are you saying the snow globe itself was surprisingly roomy, that the autistic child was, surprisingly, Roomie, or that the snow globe was surprisingly like Roomie, i.e. friendly, female and lesbian?

        2. APersonAmI

          …Because I want to live in a friendly, lesbian snowglobe.

        3. Opus the Poet

          Well, who doesn’t? (waves at Chloe in the other comic)

        4. Leorale

          It was surprisingly a 13th-century Persian poet, jurist, theologian, and Sufi mystic.

        5. Ivan

          You wouldn’t have liked it a much if the fixed pieces weren’t meant to be immovable. When’s the last time you were hit with a flying sofa or a house in free-fall??

          Bad enough the snowflakes in those things are the size (relatively) of baseballs or larger!

      3. zaratustra

        It’s all in Dina’s mind

    2. Yotomoe

      Zooms out more and that snowglobe is actually a spec on a dandilion carried by an elephant.

      1. Bill

        Which is one of only four elephants, standing on the back of a giant cosmic turtle, and supporting a Discworld.

        1. Mangulwort

          In a distant and second-hand set of dimensions, in an astral plane that was never meant to fly, the curling star-mists waver and part…

          See…

          Great A’Tuin the turtle comes, swimming slowly through the interstellar gulf, hydrogen frost on his ponderous limbs, his huge and ancient shell pocked with meteor craters. Through sea-sized eyes that are crusted with rheum and asteroid dust He stares fixedly at the Destination.

        2. Anarchy 101

          And all of this is inside of a speck of dust on Walky’s shirt from another universe

        3. Arkadi

          You guys just won the internets. ALL of the internets, all over the Multiverse XD

        4. Ivan

          AND THEN THERE IS THIS…

          http://abload.de/img/e9djjcojhezq.jpg

        5. badmartialarts

          Chick Tracts have gotten so weird…

        6. Roborat

          what do you mean, have gotten?

  8. Aolbain

    The fact that I am awake to read and writte this almost makes me wanna cry.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      May I enquire as to why?

      1. Yotomoe

        Because, They’ll never have a Cape.

    2. newllend

      Its Probably a phew hours later from 12:00 where she is, taking Eastern and Western time into consideration.

      1. Plasma Mongoose

        I’m lucky it’s early afternoon over here now.

        1. Anarchy 101

          Its 1:17 where i’m at

        2. thatindianguy

          It’s about 8 p.m over here.

      2. Aolbain

        Yup. It was 05.45 in the morning.

  9. Stephen Bierce

    *plays Exposé’s “Seasons Change” on the Muzak*

  10. Leorale

    Such a pretty shot, though.

    1. JessWitt

      It’s a nice way to close the chapter – it began at night, it ends at night.

      1. Gigafreak

        Up all night to get… Friendship?

        1. whatintheliteralfuck

          from your cat picture i see “Up all night to get no.”

        2. Gigafreak

          Up all night to get away from all of you

  11. Flicker

    In the last frame, there are two other people walking along the street. Amazi-girl picked a terrible place to do a secret interview.

    1. Gigafreak

      It would sure be a shame if people learned any of the information that she is now willingly making public

  12. Just Me

    The start of the Amazi-Girl Fan Club. Dorothy, President (of club) – great for her resume.

  13. newllend

    The the proper term is “Fangazam.” Happy 4th of July everybody.

    1. Plasma Mongoose

      But it’s the 5th of July now…

      1. newllend

        Where your at, it’s around 9:30 for me.

        1. Plasma Mongoose

          Australia.

        2. whatintheliteralfuck

          happy 5th of july. now don’t celebrate because you are in australia.

  14. JessWitt

    I’m curious about Amazi-Girl’s exercise routine and her favorite Smash Bros newcomer.

    1. Yotomoe

      All thighs, all the time. Leg lifts. Cardio. Kickin’ holes in walls.

  15. MrSirk

    Capes, it’s where it’s at….Unless this is The Incredibles, then you get sucked into a jet engine.

  16. caesaria82

    Cuties, these two. Total cuties.

    1. -Sentinel-

      SECOND PANEL AMBER NEEDS A HUG.

      Hug her, Dorothy. Hug her.

      I totally cuddle-ship them.

      1. -Sentinel-

        *Amazi-Girl, that is. Not Amber.

  17. Steamweed

    After Ivory Toldson ends his second term in 2044, Dorothy Keener wins the office. To assist in rebuilding the nation’s positivity (in the time after the Flood War), she needs an able head for the new superhero agency. She reaches out and taps her old college acquaintance, Amazi-Girl. 😀

    1. Mangulwort

      I WOULD READ THE HECK OUT OF THAT!

      1. Opus the Poet

        Yes, that needs a +1. Willis, you have a new comic to make…

      2. Ivan

        READ? THIS IS REALITY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT!

        A shame I’ll be dead by then, or can at least strongly hope for such.

        1. whatintheliteralfuck

          If your picture is a point of reference, then i don’t think you can become dead.

    2. Gigafreak

      They always did tell me that college was all about networking

  18. timemonkey

    That last panel shows s Joyce’s perspective as she hangs out her window watching them. She’s clawing at the air at Amazi-Girl’s distance image and hissing ‘MINE!“. She already shares Dorothy with Walky, Amazi-Girl can’t have her.

    1. David M Willis

      hahaha

      1. LJoL

        Willis, I think I speak for a lot of people when I deliberately paraphrase,

        “If you write it, we will read.”

  19. Rabid Rabbit

    Ah, so Dorothy when she’s not doing her worst actually asks pretty easy questions. Robyn would be glad to know.

    Also, the cape can knock a phone out of your hand. Any Dorothy should know that.

  20. Gally

    Dotty is assuming more and more the mantle of champion. She seeks to understand first before judging. I love it. If she doesn’t become prez she’ll make an excellent journalist.

    1. whatintheliteralfuck

      the problem is, she focuses on becoming president, and not what happens afterward.

  21. Mass Confusion

    This strip is sweet as can be. Good storyline ending. Preparing for heart-ache next strip

  22. Pyr05

    It’s all about the bravery points. You don’t have that, you don’t got SHEEYT

  23. TheDOCTOR

    Nice end. Hope Amber and Dorothy become friends.

    1. Heavensrun

      I think they already kinda are at this point.

  24. Jelli

    Yay! Now become friends!

  25. tinfoil theory

    Why are you wearing a mask?
    It’s just terribly comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing one in the future. But, why is there straw lying around?
    And why are you wearing a maks?

    1. Loki

      That’s a rather obscure reference (for the non-German speaking Internet, that is) x)

  26. Arkadi

    When Dorothy is the President, she’ll have a secret button under her desk in the Oval Office to call on Amazi-girl for important secret missions ^^

  27. Idon'tcarenomore

    That’s cool, red button on call to Amazi-girl.

    Yeah, that’s a really nice strip 2 nights in a row. Nice screen shot start and finish.
    I like.

    So, then it is an end to a story arc? Today is Friday. Last few strips been really really good (and nice).

    So….WWIII coming?

  28. AndromedaRage

    That explains everything! When I put the cape on and checked out my finished cosplay, I did make me brave enough to wear her form fitting outfit these past two days.

  29. hof1991

    Dorothy’s dress adds +10 adult and professional points. So maybe she didn’t choose it just to make Wally even more of a drooling idiot than he usually is.

  30. thatindianguy

    You know considering just how level headed Dorothy usually is I’m surprised she supports vigilantism. Even if it is mainly focused on vandals.

    1. whatintheliteralfuck

      show her dog the bounty hunter and her mind will flip immediately.
      then again, Ambe-I mean Amazi-Girl might feel the same way.

  31. Deanatay

    Finally! I thought we’d NEVER get to ‘Whiteboard Dingdong Bandit’! I wonder what it’ll be about…

    1. whatintheliteralfuck

      something about a certain force of nature with gravity defiant hair.

    2. Brainstone

      Mike:
      He who draws faster than his own shadow.

  32. Jody

    My Lois Lane/Superman feelings are leaking through man. I want them to at least hug now.

  33. Bagge

    Friendly bonding! Warm fuzzy feelings. I’m so glad that nothing will go horribly wrong with their budding friendship in the name of Drama!

  34. insertcleverusernamehere

    Came for The Incredibles references. Wasn’t disappointed.

  35. Syd

    Whose idea was it to strap a camera to Unreal Air? That thing, you would not believe the air it gets. Say goodbye to that camera, too.

    1. chisci

      now all we need is for monday’s shortpacked to start with a crane shot with the camera slowly descending to the ground 😛

  36. Leonou

    Yay, they’re bonding !

  37. Edna Mode

    NO CAPES!

  38. Sambo

    It’s too bad it’s the end of the chapter, because those two figures at the top of the last panel TOTALLY LOOK LIKE SAL AND DANNY

    There would be epic conflict.

    1. Jarawara

      I saw that too. And I don’t believe David for a second. This storyline is not over, and tomorrow Amazi-Girl will see Danny and Sal walking together. She will go epic explosive. And Dorothy will see Danny cheating on Amber. She will go epic explosive. And Sal… will be Sal.

      Danny will Dan the whole thing up, and noboby will notice because they’re all busy killing each other.

  39. dropded

    “OK! Next question. What do you say to the allegations that you both allowed a potential rapist to escape due to your grandstanding, and that you curbstomped a man for no apparant reason?”

  40. Swerve

    I get the same way whenever I’m around Blurr! My knee joints suddenly become overly articulated, I start to stutter, and the next thing you now, the only sound my vocabulator can produce is a high-pitched shriek.

  41. nothri

    Heh. The only way she’d fangirl all over you is in slipshine.
