"...and it's a high hard one, right over the plate ... she stands ... she swings AND IT'S OUTTA THERE!!!"

=============

The double-bank shot is great ... and i LOVE Atsali's expression in Panel Two, particularly the Tonguetip of Concentration.

That first panel reminds me of "Bing bing biiiiiing... Ricochet Rabbit!!!

I love the look of determination on her face as she winds up for the final hit... but the skull... what or whomever that is... it's sentient. If sees a world of hurt coming and knows its gonna hurt. The expression on it's face actually shows emotion...

Impaled into the ceiling by it's own fangs, it is seeing stars and hearing bells and birdies- and in due time will be wondering how to get down from there.

Bad form from Sali. She did not shout the name of the power blow she was about to use. All fighters with amazing powers have names for their moves. It's a rule of martial art comics after all. What would this one be called, I know! Jawbreaker.

"Hieaaaaa Jawbreaker"

Pow!!!!

I'd hate to see the dentist bill.

Ya know in panel 2 Sali stance and expression reminds me a bit of Mammy Yokum winding up.
Ambush questions are fun. Watching the mental impact of them as they distort, or crumble, opinions based on faulty logic.

Am I the only one who is freaked that she suddenly has magic powerfists? It's not something I expect from sirens nor succubi/incubi. Is she another "hidden uber-monster", like Monica, or Shelley, or Tina, or Justin, or . . .

OMG! Does 'Sali look cool or what? This is going to be really embarrassing if the skull is actually a good guy. (OBTW, what happened to her forehead markings in the middle panel?) 8-)

OK, now that this little 'problem' has been addressed, what troubles have our other two runners run into for our raptor girl to solve?

Looks like Atsali has been taking unarmed combat lessons from Bud. Nice eye lights in frames 2 and 3.

Is that astral fire in frames two and three? :shock:

Is that tar dripping from the skull in frame four or a skin of evil.

Ethetian knowledge is showing up here, notice the eyelights and the glowing hand? Not a "normal" fighting style. I think we are finding out how Atsali survived to write those YA adventure stories.

BWAHAHA! That is exactly what went through my head!

Well, almost exactly. I was remembering the musical version (it was on a vinyl LP, I think, with other Hanna-Barbera cartoon-character songs), which goes "Bing bing biiiiiing... Ricochet SPLAT!!!"

Can almost here it thinking "Aw, hell... here it comes!"

This is a rather fascinating new aspect to Atsali... but where did it come from? Are all Sirens capable of such stunts, when they reach maturity and then something gets their dander up? Perhaps, in the Wapsiverse, Sirens are also holding down the "Amazon female warrior" franchise? or is it a latent effect of the Ethetian incident?

Holy Sh!t! From the bank shots she's doing, maybe her T-shirt should be white, in honor of finer cue balls everywhere!
