I am reminded of the end of the movie “Men in Black” where Tommie Lee Jones screams “Eat me!” and I’m going to say that yes, she absolutely intended that to happen.
I can’t help but wonder what will happen if the Biomass absorbs Tigerlily given that the Biomass’s current opponent is literally square and also arguably the Man.
Also when HT appeared he for a while maintained a surface of rational activism against the Man.
I wonder if that’s a Lenin vs Trotski image.
If so, that does not bodes well for Unity’s free territory, even if she’s been coopted by robots’ anarcho-syndicalist commune.
Agreed. A nice interlude strip would be to cut back to Ira announcing “Well, so much for your foolish friend, Captain.” only to have Tip just smile back at him until Ira starts squirming.
I’m predicting a sudden blossoming of outa sight paisley lilies and a decidedly more soulful personality as a certain Tigerlily transforms the angry sister-cypress into the embodiment of all things funky fit for leading all to planet Lovetron.
I notice that the blade is transparent. It could still be a vibro-knife, with teeth that cannot be seen because vibrating too fast. In any event, Tigerlily clearly intends to do some pruning with it.
It’s a battle of titans today. But H. T. tells the speck, “Go away.” Tigerlily’s no minion, so a different opinion than the tiger-cat-man-thing has sway.
Maaaaan I don’t usually care about those “see tomorrow’s strip today” patreon offers but if there was ever a time I wanted to see tomorrow’s strip early….thank Goodness tomorrow isn’t Sunday
What’s really great about this entire comic is that you can see Panel 4, but Tigerlily’s reputation and history are such that no-one believes she’s gone and are just chomping at the bit to see what’s next.
“Godzilla vs Bambi”?
…You damned fool of a tiger.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who had this reaction.
“ooooh that’s a bad idea.”
“Godzilla vs Bambi”?
Methinks the tactical nuke was a safer pill to swallow!
Reminds me more of Men in Black, when the giant alien cockroach makes the mistake of swallowing Mr Jones (er, K).
At least she didn’t call him Georgia-O’Keefe-painting-faced.
Yeah that is one yonic second panel
He just ate something that disagreed with him!
And he’s about to find out just how much it disagrees with him.
Next, we find out if he’s got her exactly where she wants him.
I’m going to assume Tigerlily intended that to happen.
I am reminded of the end of the movie “Men in Black” where Tommie Lee Jones screams “Eat me!” and I’m going to say that yes, she absolutely intended that to happen.
That was my exact thought too.
Watch carefully Ira. Watch your plans dissolve.
The funniest possibility right now is that she just died. It would suck so bad but it would be funny.
It would be sort of a Monty Python-style result.
Tip: “KAAAAAAHHHHHNNNNN!!!!!”
If Tigerlily really did just die, that could cause Tip to turn to the Dark Side, and turn his mojo up to eleven, which might just destroy the world.
…well, time for him to trip.
That could be fun!

Or other said:
“Help, she’s being repressed!”
Tigerlily and HT struggling for control over the Biomass? Now that would be a serious War of the Egos.
Tigerlily would win, but she already knows what DisUnity eventually learned and would reject the Biomass.
Could we soon see the Greater Tigerlily?
We have met the enemy and he is us.
Pogo.
If being absorbed was her plan I don’t think she would have gone in with a sword. 😛
The “the” himself?
Well that’s just RUDE
Watch Tigerlily carve her way out of HT, Sharknado-style.
I envision a nice spiral slice from the neck down…
I was envisioning Boba Fett, but I like the Sharknado thing better.
That orange “CHOMP” is the kind of gorgeous cartoony lettering that you don’t see enough of these days.
Too true.
Mmmmm Tip will not be happy
Oh, I think Tip will be happy, because Tigerlily will not go down so easily (pun intended).
Agreed. A nice interlude strip would be to cut back to Ira announcing “Well, so much for your foolish friend, Captain.” only to have Tip just smile back at him until Ira starts squirming.
Oh good lord.
Tigerlily,
Versus a Tiger Lily.
Jeff and Shaenon are geniuses.
+1
And that’s why the “CHOMP” is orange?
That hit me while I was driving home this morning from shopping. I’m glad somebody else noticed…resentful that somebody posted it before me.
Uh.
Well now you’ve done it. She’s not stuck inside you; you’re stuck with her.
I’m predicting a sudden blossoming of outa sight paisley lilies and a decidedly more soulful personality as a certain Tigerlily transforms the angry sister-cypress into the embodiment of all things funky fit for leading all to planet Lovetron.
Tiger lily Jones has a blue lightsaber.
Maybe a spring-wound tiger-cat-man-thing killing blade.
I notice that the blade is transparent. It could still be a vibro-knife, with teeth that cannot be seen because vibrating too fast. In any event, Tigerlily clearly intends to do some pruning with it.
so does being “The Giant Tiger Cat Man Thing” count as being a modification of “The Man”? ;p
I would say yes.
Tip is going to flip his chapeau when he sees this.
It’s a battle of titans today. But H. T. tells the speck, “Go away.” Tigerlily’s no minion, so a different opinion than the tiger-cat-man-thing has sway.
Time to see if that sword has settings for chop, mix, and puree.
He’s about to get his Lilium lancifoliumed!
Maaaaan I don’t usually care about those “see tomorrow’s strip today” patreon offers but if there was ever a time I wanted to see tomorrow’s strip early….thank Goodness tomorrow isn’t Sunday
Yes, it Looks like a Sword,
Yes ,it Might have an Edge
But that Might not be What it is For 😉
It could be a lovesaber…
Well, then, Tip would be wielding it.
Now I have that old french song “Love is Blue” by Paul Mauriat going though my head…….and in fairly short order though HT’s head.
“New, new, I’m so much new…I’m a new man, but I’m not sure who.”
“If you strike me down I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.”
Who’s that who spoke?
Worthy.
What’s really great about this entire comic is that you can see Panel 4, but Tigerlily’s reputation and history are such that no-one believes she’s gone and are just chomping at the bit to see what’s next.
Amen.
Yep…without the slightest doubt.
Please note HT’s terrible, terrible error here:
He identified himself as “THE giant tiger cat man thing.” Get rid of the extra descriptors, and what do you get?
“The Man.”
He’s so doomed.
Oh I have a feeling he’ll be “tripping” alright…
Ooh, the new issue of *Giant-Size Tiger Cat Man-Thing* is here!
