Man 900 pages...it's amazing how the artstyle has changed over all that time, I mean Gren looks the same but Harry looks so different.
this is an extremely good comment fyi

I can't believe it took me four days to get this joke...
...Hopefully this is one of those jobs where the employer is just a bit paranoid and overprivileged and everything else will be totally fine and on the up and up.
This totally isn't one of those jobs EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE!
I reckon the villains should be really astonished to find their captives still present - or regard it as proof they have the wrong people, Eg., what would (did) Henry do..?
Henry would have staged a daring escape, starting with him standing on the roof and probably ending with him hanging onto the rear axle of the moving carriage. Ms Harry would have had a quiet pipe, met the mysterious boss, found out what her agenda is and then made a daring escape, probably with the aid of some Cunningham and Feng tech that she would later deny using.
WOW!
900!! Congrats! And thank you so much, been here since Komi and co got stuck in purgatory (or right about then). You tell the best stories through your work! <3 much love from the Netherlands.
Awwww. It's very like Ben to only be able to praise O'Malley and Wolfe indirectly by complaining about someone else, but he still did it!
Ben is being such a bratty little kid it's ADORABLE!!!
Of course, in a similar situation with the "much better company", Ben and Mal would almost certainly have spent the whole ride bickering about whose fault it was that they got into this...
A moment while we realize that Ben just complimented Mal.
Just me who's wondering why their destination is an imports warehouse?
I'm wondering what word ends with "yce"...
Someone’s name, maybe?
Joyce?
James or William? :-)
Royce was my guess.
[A lot of towns in Poland and Germany](https://www.thefreedictionary.com/e/yce "https://www.thefreedictionary.com/e/yce"), apparently
Welll...James Bond’s cover story was that he was a purchaser for “Universal Export”...
Awwwww, Mal and Wolfe got referred to as better company than a dog and police! Awwwww!!
Better not let Mal hear you talking like that Ben, he might think you'd gone all soft on him.
I like the colours this page:)
Dang! I can't believe this comic has been around since 2011. I think I found Darken around when Baal first showed up, which is... a long time ago.
See, normally the snarky sarcastic person who makes fun of me is male and it's supposed to be a wolf, not a dog.
Ah, I think I get why Eliza rubs Ben the wrong way; her personality is as chipper as his cousin's, but without the benefit of her being hypercompetent.
Eliza seems pretty competent to me. She was the most efficient member of the trio during the adventure at the university.
Competent, yes. Hyper-competent? No. Competent is forming a coalition and raising a government with charisma and intellect. Hyper-competence is doing the same, but with less and over the course of one afternoon.
Verity is a hyper-competent fighter, gadget-builder, and short-term tactician, but I think Chapter 7 showed she has a lot of personal and big-picture limitations as well.
The main point is that Verity would have already have broken them out of the carriage by this point. Beforehand, she would have also been able to take down the kidnappers back at the building.
Hmmm, I think it's more just that he knows his cousin better. He's diligent and cautious, but also insecure and tightly-wound, so it doesn't take much for him to be snippy with people.
Also I'd say Eliza is a very shrewd investigator with a strong sense of self who just leaps a little too early/enthusiastically. They're both tenacious and have a lot to prove, so they egg each other on.
wow, 900 pages is very impressive, congrats!
Yay for 900 pages!!
900 pages reached, congrats! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
Love their expressions in the last panel, with Eliza steeling herself for what's ahead, Gren just annoyed, and Ben looking like he wants to ask if he can stay in the carriage
Gren is still mad that so few humans respect the sanctity of nap time.
I say they still bicker like a married couple.
Congrats on making it to 900! :)
Ben is referring to Make and Wolfe! Aww! He misses them!
