    so Sera’s leaving Kelton’s car at the top of Bettie’s was all part of the master plan. Good way to support the story, ppl are usually like “and where the fuck did he/she get a car.”

    Nothing like seeing a car plough head-on into Stiletta four times from four different angles to make my morning.

    GO TEAM RUBIKOV!

    …and Phase 1 of Stilletta’s makeover is complete: nothing like a full-body auto massage to loosen up the muscles and iron out the kinks.

    Hopefully, Tess will get out of this with only a few more casts… I really hope she’s gonna be ok o_o

    Way to car kamikaze, Tess! You just increase your badass by about ten points!

    p.s. if Tess dies from this my heart will be SHATTERED.

    SHATTERED.

    Just throwing that out there.

    Awesome. PWNED (hopefully…)

    On a less important note; the tall thing behind Kelton’s car (the chain holding city hall down i think?) Is it supposed to be faded like the rest of the background above the car too? or is that intentional?

    I assume thats Keltons car, Kelton I think you’ve just become a pedestrian. I doubt thats the end of Stelletta not with twelve pages left.

    Here’s hoping that car has a good front impact safety rating. Good thing Tess there is already partially covered in armor.

    I absolutely LOVE the structure of this page. WOW. Krunch indeed.

    … and I cast one more vote* along the lines of hoping that that face Tess is making is indicative of “die scary psycho bitch die” and not of some catastrophic internal hemorrhage.

    (I think that may be the first time I’ve had occasion to use the word “hemorrhage.” What a good word)

    I find it troubling that Sera still hasn’t actually done anything. Somehow I don’t think she’ll get through the next twelve pages just reacting to stuff. Tess is awesome, but Sera is my hero…

    *Not that this is actually a democracy. But still.

    aaron…you are my *god*….well, you would be if i believed in one, at any rate…

    …regardless, i’m torn between what i like better…the masterful story you write (the pacing is *so* spot on!), or the incredible page structure (the panels of each page enhace what’s going on the the story by, oh, say, 14 bazillion percent), or the fact that you can crank out such beautifully rendered work on such a regular schedule.

    of course, the kid in me likes the frosted side, too!

    I kind of expected Tess to be waving her psychobilly hat and cheering as she flies through the air.

    horizontal velocity of car must be greater than or equal to mass of car*9.8m/s^2

    Everyone’s so excited about the ginormous red-haired sasquatch
    but for Kelton to stand there
    being the wuss he is
    as a decoy?
    I think that he is brave, too.
    Maybe braver than Tess, even.

    @Claire: I nominate that for the title of *Angriest Tess Face EVER!”

    @StudioRobb: it’s okay, you can *always* believe in mr. A!

    @Sphyrna: Tess has always had a lead foot; now, it’s got a big cast for *extra* weight ;)

    A thot happened: In a way, Tess seems to be proving Victor “Vampires in the basement” Vogel *right* here, which kinda seems inappropriate….. which makes me suspect that Stilletta ain’t finished yet. I fink Sera’s still gonna be the one to take her down. In a *non*-”surprise-bullet-to-the-head” fashion.

    @Ringoko: Agreed. “Painting the target” is a seriously hazardous mission. So is standing on the landing site to show an aircraft where to land. Especially if it isn’t an aircraft. And they always say, never call an air strike on your own position….

    Knowing what was *behind* him took even more guts than knowing what was in *front* of him!
