STILL WITH US?

Normally not a fan of beating up women, but this is a fairly brutal story, and we did kick Ultramaiden square in the nuts in the main book...of course we turned her into a guy first. So there's that.

If you don't know what I'm parodying in this page, stop reading right now. While I'm flattered you're here and reading this humble comic, you have some further education to undergo.

Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns. Learn it. Love it. Live it.

Then come back here and you can appreciate this page in all its fullness and chuckle at the richness of the homage. Right?

WHAT I'M LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW:

"Laura" by the Scissor Sisters. One of the most sing-alongy of sing-along songs there is. .
