Maxima obviously did some googling before her visit. Certainly hit up the wikipedia page for Mozambique at the very least.
Deus feels that the major problems with your typical supervillain plan are threefold. One, the plans are of such scale that they force an immediate response, i.e., holding a city hostage with a nuke. Two, the plans are public. He attributes this to 95% of supervillains having deep seated narcissistic per...

To quote Agent K, "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it." I assume that line is paraphrased from some ancient philosopher or sociologist, because I think it may be the single smartest sentence ever committed to film.
Deus believes there are good persons, ...

Sydney: "I'm not leaving this country until I learn to curse in Xhosa, Chiktr, Alar, Makhuwa, Changana, Nyanja, Ndau, Sena, Chwabo, and Tswa." (She already knows how to curse in Portuguese.)
Mozambique's "non-surrender" was largely due not just to a grievously outmatched military, but a line of two story tall demons marching in flaming columns.

This page was supposed to show Deus working out alongside a bunch of soldiers, and I kind of started to do that there in panel 3, but in my head, there was like a line twenty deep behind him and ten lines next to them. I realized I wouldn't have time to draw all that but I was hoping to make it look a little more like he was being a man of the people. (Whether that was just PR theater or a genuine thing would of course be left uns...

I guess Sydney was excited to learn that she had a great-times-5 grandparent who was a native Maltan. She's been keeping that one in her back pocket for years in case she needed to trump someone else's genealogy tale. No offense to any Maltans out there, but I'm not sure it's quite the slam dunk she seems to think it is.

Don't worry, this isn't another ten page tangent on Dabbler's genealogy. (It's two, I promise.)
I bet a lot of doppelgangers are like "I bet it's awesome being king." but about three weeks after replacing one, they're bummed out by the amount of administrative stuff they have to do. And then the king gets mysteriously ill, and one morning he's laying in his bed, looking like he died three weeks ago. Then the doppelganger is ...

The important thing to take away from this page is that, yes, the Alari have ass-sculpting technology.
A hundred and thirty languages is a lot. It's one of those figures I could probably justify by reminding everyone that she's a super-genius and also 187 years old, but even so, that's basically a language every year and a half. She probably only learned 3-5 by the time she got into demon middle school. Her demon elementary ...

I'm not pleased with how this page turned out, because it's mostly backgrounds, and I'm disappointed with my results. Backgrounds take so much longer to draw than I ever allocate. The Alari ship is barely just past the draft stage. I needed to put another ten hours into making it look like a hive of activity and showing how it's expanding. Actually, right now it looks like a Level 1 structure in a RTS game, and someone just

Is it rude to tell a succubus that teal might not be her color?
I thought it'd be funny to see Dabbler casually cosplaying as the 11th Countess of Abbingdon, but honestly the teal top doesn't quite play well with her stripes.
I think a lot of epic, sprawling TV shows these days have the problem of too many main characters. That is to say, something like Game of Thrones around season 4 and on had so many stories happeni...

An odd page, admittedly, but things are happening on the other side of the Earth.
I didn't write this page intending to dump on Mozambique, but I had to decide where Galytn actually was, and based on other higher altitude maps I've drawn, it's at the southern tip of Malawai and overlaps into Mozambique slightly. The country started off about a quarter the size of Rhode Island, but has expanded considerably. Mostly directly s...

If you can make copies of yourself, there's a lot of mischief you can get up to. Harem has customized all her dupes with dye jobs, haircuts and tattoos in some cases, but there was a time when she had at least two of herself that still looked identical. Well, that happens each time she gets strong enough to make a new dupe. It appears as a copy of her strawberry blonde self, but usually she figures out some fashion trend to take i...

Leon and Zephan are both thinking "just hire some fish researchers and slip one of our own guys in the group" or coral researchers or marine geologists or whatever. FYI, a "fish researcher" is an ichthyologist, but a guy who studies coral is just lumped in as a "Marine Zoologist" and that makes me wonder if research professions that have their own special title are hoity-toity and swing their big science dicks around...

Okay. If I was reading some comic and it took 1,000 pages for them to get around to "where did you get your amazing MacGuffins," that would strike me as an oversight both on the characters' part, and the authors.

I mean, they should have had her tell them exactly where she got them, and within an hour there should have...

Yes, of course we'll meet Sydney Sr. in just a bit, but he's probably getting autographs or something.
Sydney got in trouble a fair amount growing up, and her and her mom eventually developed this disciplinarian semaphore so Laura could scold her daughter without needing to stop other conversations. Also, they can have obligatory "How was school?" / "Fine." conversations without actually needing to speak.
