I thought it must have been Ginny because of the lack of jags on the speech bubble tail, but now that I look closely I can see a pair of lines crossing the border just to its right, so destructobot speech bubble it is.
Aside from the fact that she’s been brain scrambled with The Manly vibes? He just SEES the tags, if The Man wants to label himself that’s his own business.
I imagine Sweetdaddy would not be the first AI to grow beyond the limits the Spark who created him had set. Certainly, we’ve already seen an example of that with Lovelace So just because it’s too modern for Tigerlilly doesn’t mean that it’s too modern for him.. >_>
Well, I can’t see it doing anything to M, and Ginny is of course human. Who knows how Sweetdaddy works, but Tigerlily’s thing is springs so there’s a fair chance he’s largely mechanical. That just leaves Hitty and Bubbles, and as a combat droid and an infiltration droid, they each have a decent chance of being EM shielded.
A talking teenage goth cobra and a hip spider robot made from a car are fighting over an android that used to be a water cooler. Now THIS is what the internet is all about!
Bubbles is looking mighty happy in that last panel. I think she’s remembering the wild night of AI passion she shared with Sweetdaddy all that time ago.
First time she saw Sweetdaddy, Bubbles made a noise to get his attention and told him about her commitment to service. I think she dug him from the start. She plays her riffs clean but she knows the score.
Alfie may be demonstrating youthful rash indescrestion by attacking a robot designed to level Tulsa, but I think it is romantic for him to be so infatuated with Bubbles even though she is more annoyed by his attention than anything resembling encouragement. You gotta hand it to the kid. He might be an idiot but he does try.
this is SO one sided, both phisicly and er… funkaly.
Maybe if Alfie tried strangling Sweetdaddy…
Wonder if Sweetheart’s gonna have another chance at Unity soon…
“Cobra, Retreat! RETREAT!”
Snake? Snake?! SNAAAAKE!!!!!!!
Badger badger badger.
I don’t think Bubbles ever agreed to be his girlfriend, and who’s saying the first sentence in the last panel?
One of the destructobots, the one who was hurrying Bubbles inside in the first panel.
One of the killbots.
I can see how you missed it, since they make no mention of Destruction..

“I don’t think Bubbles ever agreed to be his girlfriend.” Much experience with 13 year old boys, have you?
Perhaps Bubbles can invite them all out for a day on her new yacht and explain things to them in words of one or two syllables.
Isn’t RFID a little too modern and, er, “the man”ly for Tigerlilly?

Despite Alfie’s antics I think I would be more concerned about the something outside that a killbot considers dangerous.
I was about to say “what, like an EMP” but then I remembered that most of the group (other than the Cobras) would find that very dangerous indeed
Dang it, it didn’t nest under alibat

Worst Celebrity Deathmatch ever!

Well, when you put it that way, it sounds ridiculous.
Jeff, you say that as if it were a bad thing.
I didn’t realize that that black stuff was Sweetdaddy’s spider body until now… it was harder to read visually in the old B&W strips.
Also just realized (or maybe remembered) that the Killbots are numbered for our convenience. That’s Killbot 1 talking, who seems like the nicer one.
That’d be like choosing the nicest Gabor sister…
I’m vaguely disappointed that Bubbles still isn’t on the cast list.
Yeah, it could use a few more updates. Jonah Yu and Nera…some of the guys from St. Charlie…Sergio…
I suppose it’s a “we’ll get to it when we get to it” thing.
“Is . . . is my?” It’s fun to see Bubble use new words. What does she mean here, do you suppose?
No new words. “is” and “my”are part of the original 5 word vocab. I think she is wondering if someone special to her is also present.
Huh, my impression was Bubbles saying “Is my …new body nice looking?” Like when you get a new hair style and ask for an opinion on it.
Oh. Duh.
Bubbles is looking mighty happy in that last panel. I think she’s remembering the wild night of AI passion she shared with Sweetdaddy all that time ago.
She *thinks* in coherent sentences, at least…and it doesn’t seem like anybody has any trouble understanding her.

Welp, say goodbye to Alfie. Any bets on how long before he bites himself into a concussion?
Probably should have called a spitting match.

Is it just me or does anyone else envision Sweetdaddy with a synthesized Barry White voice? Like, 100% Barry, plus a little extra metallic reverb.
Oh, absolutely. Or maybe B.B. King.
