On the one hand, I'm glad Monica is talking about her problems. That's a LOT better than cowering for two weeks, or cutting off old friends because it's suddenly sunk in they might be dangerous. Agreed. If you've got fears or phobias, talking about them honestly seems to be the best way of defusing...

Whenever you consider buying any used car, you should pay a local auto mechanic that you trust to do at least a basic inspection of the motor, power train, and body. What the mechanic tells you, may save you some nasty surprises in both the short and long term... it's well worth an hour or two of hi...

This seems very right to me, somehow... after all the trauma, drama, angst, blood, adrenaline, anger, and shouting... it feels like a moment of clarity. Maybe it's a true moment of calmness; maybe it's just the eye of the hurricane, and all hell will break loose again. For the moment at least, the w...

Nudge is definitely made of stern stuff. We haven't seen a character dent a wall that nicely since Bud thoomed Mayahuel into Jin's wall during the great clay makeover, and Nudge still has that pleased-as-Punch grin on her face.

A thaumaturgical reactor cooling tower? It would explain where the extra energy from the Golem's physical actions go. Burn up the thaums and power the Libraries. So, if those three Golems dare to take a restful vacation, and the Library suffers a power shortage and the staff begins to get chilly, t...

It took me an hour of searching on Google to find just the right dragon and just the right flamethrower shot... Thank you for investing the time, effort and talent! Definitely good for a prolonged chuckle hereabouts. I'm having trouble coming up with a proper caption for it, though. If the flames w...

Weird. Both images are on my own webhosting, and i can see them both clearly. Just a minute... Pretty sure the problem's either at your end or in between, since i can see the images on my monitor in both Opera and Firefox, and on my tablet (hooked into our home network by wifi (but not through my c...

The local multiplex is going to be busy with all these movie openings on December 22nd. :mrgreen: Or not, depending on Quezacoatl decides... I think Management figures they can just run a midnight showing that day, and let the noon-and-after shift employees know that they will be excused from work ...

That's either one impressively large library, or there's a whole city around it that we've yet to be introduced to. Interesting! Yes indeed! We knew that the Library is somehow outside of our own time and dimension... and it looks as if its whole plane of existence is not only separated from our ow...

Bia being knocked out of it would mean the library is more powerful than even Titans. Heck, the blast from the Chimera didn't even knock her off her feet. Not even the second wave. That, in turn, would mean it is run by beings much more powerful than Titans. It could be at the level of the original...

But a relatively short time later, she was able to take over Tina's body and move her out of the morgue. How did she cover that distance? She can't poit, so haow does she move long distances? Just wonderin'. Since Nudge is apparently Coyote, she clearly knows how to morph into a canine form. It's n...

Let me guess. He pulled a prank on one of the higher Powers, and (when caught out) was Commanded in no uncertain terms to... well, I can't say it since this is a forum for a YA comic but I'm sure you get my drift?

Well, that was a lot less than I thought it would take to snap Phix out of her fury. Nowhere near the atomic cannon I had expected. Good news, I think? EDIT: were any of the classic Tricksters ever known to take a bird form? A raven or crow or owl? Maybe Nudge can fly, if she can morph into a bird f...

Nahh, the best version of "Flight of the Bumblebee" was the theme to the "Green Hornet" played by Al Hirt. I understand there's a version played on the tuba, on the "Spike Jones Laughing Record". It's incomplete... the musician repeatedly cracks up laughing while tryin...

Wonderful, Atomic , wonderful!! Thank you! Agreed - that really is gorgeous, Atomic! I'd be curious to know whether Paul did the original black&white of the stained glass window "de novo", or whether he rotoscoped a photograph of an existing window somewhere. It looks a bit like some ...

Was I the only one who immediately saw the Cowardly Lion from Wizard of Oz? The first panel clearly shows an 'end of the world jump into nothingness' look... That window doesn't have an 'underneath' any time soon. Nudge specifically says "We are running out of Hallway and it looks like you hav...

"Beware, beware the Bight of Benin: one comes out, where fifty went in!" So did Phix reverse it? "Beware, beware the Bite of Phix-in: fifty come out where one went in?" Truly a tail of woe. +1 for the pun, and +manycookies for the Brunner reference. Which does bring up a point. ...

I haven't followed all the Youtube links in this thread re: Chase Music, but so far no one has mentioned Dance of the Comedians , also known as the Roadrunner theme, although people have mentioned Bugs and Wile E. Probably the first chase music any of us were exposed to...... I am so ashamed!!! The...

4 - "Mom... Stop." It would be "Grandma" or "Nanna" or an equivalent Comanche endearment rather than "Mom", but asde from that, yes. This does seem likely, and it could well work. Might it even work better with Shelly in human form? Less likely to trigger a &...

Grrrrrr. (Pay no attention to my growl. Coming from a 4-10, 85 pound girl, it's more comical than anything else). Please grant me leave, to disbelieve. ;) I offer the example of Harlan Ellison (author of numerous fine SF, fantasy, and speculative fiction stories). He is a small man, physically slig...
