Wow, Doctor (W-name-I-forgot) was very wrong thinking he should bolt before anyone else showed up. I think Angel would have really appreciated having a robot on-hand that could move his brain into a better head, then move that head onto a functioning body.
No offense intended, you know I love the comic, but I have no idea what order to read the dialogue in the first panel. I can’t think of a more polite way to put it; I totally understand the message being conveyed, but not the emotion, because of this confusion. In the last panel, I think that should be “over the city” not “over HE City”. If there is a “HE City” it might be better to write it as “H.E. City” or “He-City” to avoid confusion since the dialog is all-caps.
Other than those two minor things, this is a very good strip. It’s tied together a bunch of threads from earlier with new information.
no worries. laying out a comic with the text is tricky business. sometimes it doesn’t work out as well as i’d hope. the second issue was just a typo, but that’s fixed now. so thanks for mentioning it!
and the doctor you’re thinking about is ‘wueren’. hindsight is 20/20. always keep a spare robot body around, i guess. haha
You’re welcome. As for Wueren, it occurred to me that if he had stayed there and these two brought back a clone, Wueren’s bot may have been able to relocate Angel’s brain into one of the clone’s heads, then make a mix-and-match body out of the working parts between the two. The irony in Weuren wanting to leave before someone unhappy to see him showing up is rich. Whether that was intentional or not, I dig it.
that’s true. maybe all would be forgiven if he hooked him up with some free surgery? but i’ve tried to put the emphasis on the value of the parts, not the labour, which i think speaks to a dystopian cyberpunk world, where people matter less than things. or at least, rich people’s things.
always keep a spare! i was a twin, but, i thought ‘hey, an extra arm in the back would be great in the bathroom. also in a fight. also double liver. for drinkin.
But having two livers means it’s harder to get drunk/buzzed! Although the greater resistance to poisons is a nice bonus.
The real trick is getting a surgeon skilled enough to make that third arm functional, and then training it.
Also very belated congrats to the 2^9th page ^__^
haha, i didn’t even put that together. ok, see you in a few years for the 2^10.

Bring in the clones! (Angel needs the spare parts!)
I like the dry/dark humor shared between these two.
