Why yes I had several fire palettes hanging around, can't imagine where those are from
Could still do with a few more guest strips before October 8th! Comics, art, sketches, anything Widdershinsy would be appreciated! Send anything along to kojiro_muyo@hotmail.com, with the name you'd like credited, and any site you'd like me to link to.
Cast: Benjamin Thackerey, Heinrich Wolfe, Jack O'Malley, Ms Fairbairn

Karmic justice AND fire? It must be my lucky day!
BURN IN THE FLAMES!
Burn, baby, BURN!
And do~ the Locomotion with me~!
...Wait, I think I got that wrong.
Can you say "petard", boys and girls? Sure ... I knew ya could!
Very much so... That was the thought that popped in my head from the last three strips... She's gonna be hoist upon her own petard here...to much our enjoyment.
I hope Fairbairn doesn't die. I don't really have a thing for people dying. I would prefer that she lives to see the utter ruination of all her hopes and dreams. It's much more satisfying that way. ^_^
Sure she can live, well for a while as third degree burns in those days WAS a death sentence, just longer than usual.
I'm sure she's not going to burn there... My guess is that our erstwhile heroes (and heroine) in this arc will rescue her sorry, unworthy hide.
They'd better do it within a few pages then, old-timey dresses were quite a fire hazard.
Not the wool ones. And the linen ones just burn and drop away. It's always the synthetic fibers that get you; they melt and stick to you while burning. :-(
It occurs to me that now would be a good time to RUN FOR IT and Peabody can desummon everything once the dust settles.
Everytime Kate busts out the fire palettes, Gort smiles. And smites something.
Something tells me that she's getting smote HARD.
So if Fairbairn dies in the fire, what do you suppose the odds of her ending up in Gort's level of hell are?
I am confused by the shadow in the last panel. Is that some kind of buggerup strangling her or her arm? I am referring to the left side of the shadow. I am confused because it seems to have an eye hole and doesn't look like a hand. There are also no loops where the elbow would be. This is extra confusing because supposedly they are nowhere near her. Further confusion arises from the "HFF!" sound effect.
she has little bows around the sleeves on her arms, I think.
And her hand is on her hip. You're seeing her shoulder, not her neck.
