Issue 5: Page 19
I almost feel bad for leaving you on the cliffhanger with mom. Almost. >:D
As for this page, I realized that we probably finally have the answer as to why Michelle was getting bullied in issue one: she goes rappelling into peoples’ houses like a goon. Haven’t you ever heard of the front door, girl?! (Granted, such an entrance would not be NEARLY as cool.)
I feel very fortunate to live a few miles away from Lake Balboa, which has spectacular cherry blossoms this time of year. Every spring my sister and I take a stroll around the lake to admire them — one of these days, we’re gonna remember to do it right and bring a picnic.

The heck? Is this girl Batman??
February 26th, 2010 at 4:38 pm
That was… interesting. Hah.
February 26th, 2010 at 5:12 pm
Ahahhaha, Hello Cthulu!
Also, Michelle continues to be awesome.
February 26th, 2010 at 5:14 pm
“Hello Cthulu” just made me lol soooo much xD That is adorably appropriate.
I really wanna learn more about Michelle’s Mother-Daughter activities now.
February 26th, 2010 at 5:39 pm
Well, Michelle certainly is her mother’s daughter.
So what does Michelle’s dad do? Please please please let it be something soft and fuzzy and non-confrontational, like fluff pillows for the elderly angels!

I honestly think the thing I am most fond of here is the pet net. HOW I REMEMBER THOSE.
February 26th, 2010 at 6:16 pm
I’M BREAKING UP WITH YOU.
There! No need for an update! Now get back to the double-mom cliffhangers!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:09 pm
Awesomeness. I like this flashbackness in the middle of the trial.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:40 pm
LOL double cliffhanger. Starting Monday: 2 weeks of guest comics!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:42 pm
Arg I almost missed that. I gotta pay more attention T_T
February 26th, 2010 at 7:57 pm
oh no not another cliffhanger, where’s Sylvester Stallone when you need him.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:15 pm
No, ladies and gentlemen, Batman is not a mortal multi-billionaire playboy-martial artist-detective named Bruce Wayne. Batman is a 13-ish angel named Michelle Serafino.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
Don’t worry about the cliffhangers. Almost all will be revealed soon.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:48 pm
Is that a Totoro stuffie in that last panel? kinda looks like it.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:51 pm
WRONG! Michelle is BATGIRL! ;-)
February 26th, 2010 at 9:56 pm
O_o
what… why did… AAAAUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!
Double Cliffhangered! Lady Brinson-sama (and crew), you just made me think that this was full of win AND made me rage at the same time! i don’t know what else to say but that you are a complete fiend and yet full of awsome goodness.

I miss lake balboa. I remember when it was just an empty hole in the ground, before it was filled up. when it’d rain, it would get all muddy and slimy. Heck, I miss the whole valley. Stagg St, Northridge, and Reseda FTW!!!
February 27th, 2010 at 3:01 am
There’s a lot of pink on this page.
@incentive. Can I squee?!?!?! Pleeeeeeeease!?!?!? XD
February 27th, 2010 at 3:03 am
Bwahahahahahahaha!!!! Ooh tears came!!
February 27th, 2010 at 3:06 am
What, has mrs beelze never had an extra marital affair or something? I’ve a feeling that diva blackmailing her mom is gonna nip her in the bud somehow though. Parents don’t take well to blackmail.
February 27th, 2010 at 3:20 am
I want hello cthulhu memorabilia. :3
February 27th, 2010 at 7:47 am
black mail? maybe, maybe not. we’ll see. with all these plot twists, even I am having a hard time guess what will happen next.
February 27th, 2010 at 8:22 am
~stares~ hmmm it looks more like a stuffed koala bear
February 27th, 2010 at 12:18 pm
Grappling hooks don’t quite work like that. Typically you thrown them from a very low angle, hence they just grap things near the ledge. It might hit the ceiling near the window and grab that little cabinet, but highly unlikely the wall… and if it did hit the wall with typical earthly building materials (gypsum/dry wall, cement board, plaster) that hook probably wouldn’t hold her weight…

I was going to post this long post about how I’m confused about the action on this page. But I can barely make sense of why I’m confused. So screw it.
Six thumbs up on dramatic angle on Michelle.
February 27th, 2010 at 7:54 pm
Comics are full of weird conventions that have been repeated often enough that the truth just becomes irrelevant. For example, the chainmail bikini: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ChainmailBikini .
February 27th, 2010 at 9:31 pm
I can understand that, totally. There were things I wanted to accomplish in terms of visual narrative that ended up making it a bit hard to read. Thanks for the honest crit, as well as the nice compliment on the angle. ^^
February 27th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
That’s pretty informative! Unfortunately, I’ve never actually seen one used in real life, so I sorta just had to rely on the tropes I remembered from comics/movies. Sorry it wasn’t correct.
February 28th, 2010 at 11:33 am
Not trying to be nitpicky and certainly not disappointed, I just have a tendency to point these sorts of things out.

In the incentive, it looks (to me, at least) like Gabriel’s trying to look up Diva’s skirt. x3

Five bucks on how the next comic will be lampshading Rule of Cool.
March 1st, 2010 at 7:37 am
no… nooo… geting sucked in to tvtropes…. NNNNNOOOOOooooo……… ::voice vanishes in the distance::
March 1st, 2010 at 1:44 pm
I’d say it’s sliiiightly lampshaded. XD
March 16th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
Hello Chtulhu? Is that a parody of Hello Kitty?
March 17th, 2010 at 2:41 pm
It is! But alas, I didn’t come up with it. Google it, there’s some pretty funny stuff out there.
June 5th, 2010 at 7:09 pm
I sooooooo want a hello cthulhu poster
December 15th, 2010 at 11:24 pm
C’mon! She’s wearing a Swiss seat! You can’t get much more accurate than that! ; -)
February 1st, 2011 at 9:27 pm
Hello Cthulhu?
Epic.
Too epic!
seriously, the epicness has got to stop!
