Due to the holiday, I was unable to produce some extra art for the vote button. Hopefully, I’ll get something new in there this week.

What is it about Anna that Burdock finds unattractive? Does he not like red-heads?
By Towering Barbarian Mon May 14th 2018 at 4:08 am
I think it’s the being beaten with his own torn off arm angle. I’ll admit something like that might put limits on my ability to be attracted to a chick as well. ^_~
By Minaren Mon May 14th 2018 at 8:48 am
Excuse me but any real man would find her more attractive after that. Hell I know I would.
By Anarchyant Mon May 14th 2018 at 11:01 am
Yes but the problem is she isn’t related to him and likely cannot play the banjo either hence his disapproval.
By Ladon Mon May 14th 2018 at 2:56 pm
If you don’t quit it with your redneck steriotypes, he’ll drown you in his backyard still.
By Towering Barbarian Tue May 15th 2018 at 8:25 pm
In that case you would be welcome to her. Better you then I. ^_^
By Meh Mon May 14th 2018 at 10:54 pm
I certainly find rangas attractive. Even after they beat the crap out of me
By RazorD9 Wed May 16th 2018 at 9:17 pm
Wait a minute… not liking redheads?! That sounds impossible! Sure a person can prefer blondes or brunettes, but not liking redheads seems like some kind of paradoxical sentence that makes little to no sense! Like saying no to free girl scout cookies or not pressing the big red button with a sign above it that says ” DO NOT PRESS!!” in the boldest lettering possible. It’s just inconceivable and wrong!

Well, that’s gonna leave a mark.

“Ooh, I bet that smarts!” from
By Mujaki Tue May 15th 2018 at 12:27 am
Well, he can definitely do with some extra smarts, didn’t have that many to begin with.
By Iron Ed Tue May 15th 2018 at 5:06 am
I’m not sure -any- form of the word “smarts” should be used in connection with this guy. 😉
By Simon Tue May 15th 2018 at 11:05 am
He’s not totally stupid… his plan to ambush them using his truck as a decoy worked perfectly. But yeah, he seems to be lacking a plan B…
By Towering Barbarian Tue May 15th 2018 at 8:22 pm
Heh. In all fairness, I think Batman is the only one who’d have a workable Plan B for a situation of this sort. ^_~
By C.Barlog Tue May 15th 2018 at 1:29 pm
How about ‘willfully ignorant’?
By Towering Barbarian Tue May 15th 2018 at 8:20 pm
Sigh. How many people have the level of mechanical and medical knowledge necessary to be their own cyberdoc in a region where the infrastructure doesn’t normally support that tech level? o_O
So no, this guy is not ignorant and he is not stupid. He merely talks with an accent that triggers regional bigotry in certain people. And as Simon noted, his plan was well-designed and well-implemented. He lost the battle because he was overpowered rather than outthought and in a superhero universe that’s common enough to happen to everyone sooner or later.
By Ladon Fri May 18th 2018 at 12:25 pm
I just want to say: thanks for putting that into words. I was thinking the same thing but I didn’t know how to say it. This is actually a pretty respectable opponent.
By Ladon Mon May 14th 2018 at 6:17 am
Yooo, say what you will about this guy, he’s got guts even when he’s screwed. He probably doesn’t even find Anna particularly unattractive, he just needed to get in that zinger.
By DannyboyO1 Mon May 14th 2018 at 7:24 am
Sheesh. At least hear out your enemy’s demands before you piss ’em off. They may ask for something you want them to take. At the very least, you’ll find out what they’re interested in.
By The Aussie Bloke Mon May 14th 2018 at 10:15 am
For that, he deserves to have the taser contacts stuck up his nostrils
By CTNC Mon May 14th 2018 at 2:27 pm
Remind me again, which one of them is the Supervillain?
By Ladon Mon May 14th 2018 at 2:50 pm
Both, but probably more him at this point considering he seems more willing to kill.
By Bracey Mon May 14th 2018 at 9:10 pm
TASE HIM! I wanna see it!
By ben Wed May 16th 2018 at 6:17 am
A device to jump start cars would produce around 13-14 volts(need a little extra to overcome the drain from recharging a battery at the same time as starting the car). Not close to tazer levels(30-50k volts normally)
By Beregorn Wed May 16th 2018 at 4:19 pm
Yhea, it could give a mild zap if applied to the tongue, but that’s it…
By Iron Ed Thu May 17th 2018 at 3:42 am
If I recall correctly; “current” is more important, for this purpose, than is “voltage”. 😉
By Bracey Thu May 17th 2018 at 8:25 pm
Its not as much the volts that gets you as the amps.
By Beregorn Sat May 19th 2018 at 10:38 am
I=V/R where R is the resistance of the body (mostly the skin): if you don’t provide an enough high voltage, the current is negligible
By saurotitan Wed May 16th 2018 at 5:01 pm
With as much metal in him as the bear-cyborg probably has, this shock may be a bit more of a weenie roast than is safe for captives, especially THAT weenie…
By Aston Sat May 26th 2018 at 8:38 pm
Just binge read through the comic from the beginning. Now it makes more sense.
