I’m hoping this is one of her battle cries. Sherlock had “The game is afoot,” the Fourth Doctor had “Would you like a jelly baby” and the Tick had “SPOOOOOON,” so why she have “Off to find bread crumbs!”
YAY The Badger! I just dumped pretty much my entire comic collection and was happy to see my old Badgers. I would have been amused to see him in later times singing the badger song – “Badger badger badger badger Mushroom! Mushroom!”
So Cinderblock is using Goose Girl as a ventriloquist dummy? Well, *that* bodes well for the “new direction” the group is taking. And it also explains why Cinder seemed to be with Skin Horse at the end. Klingon promotion methods for the win! ^o^
Or, y’know, Cinderblock told Goose Girl the best way of phrasing stuff she wanted to say anyway. After all, there’s no reason Cinders couldn’t have said all that herself — in fact it would probably have sounded better in a lower-case monotone than a block caps shriek. The only reason for it to be coming from Goose Girl is if, to some extent, it is actually coming from Goose Girl.
From what we’ve seen of AG-I another possibility is Goose Girl outranks Cinderblock. Obviously if that’s true that should be dealt with eventually. Though maybe it’s it’s just Cinderblock doesn’t like to talk that much so had GG do it instead. She’s clearly the strong silent type.
There was also a strip a few days ago wherein Goosy was clearly experiencing moral qualms (but was too dim to work through them.) In that case, Cindy seemed brighter, but more at peace with AG-I’s role. (It seemed to me that there were similarities to the UNITY/Sweetheart dynamic.)
I believe that’s the first time we’ve gotten to see that part of Panoptica’s anatomy. That is one of the advantages that comes from supers wearing leotards.
How many people are in AG-I? There’s Shelby, Cinderblock, Goose Girl…Captain Obnoxious from their sojourn in the the wilds of New Jersey…Nick quit…that guy in green from when they had their meeting at Skin-Horse New HQ…I’m probably forgetting someone, but that’s all I can remember right now.
They can’t possibly be as poorly staffed as Skin Horse used to be. Actually, no one could possibly be as poorly staffed as Skin Horse used to be. I suspect there AG-I has a lot more that we haven’t seen. I also suspect (hope, actually) that Captain Obnoxious (Red Knight) may still be tied to that tree in Jersey, having been left to the predation of the devils.
I hope he was delicious. I read recently that, in the days of Columbus, cannibals on one island ate a friar who, er, disagreed with them after, and after that avoided eating anybody dressed in friar’s robes. Wouldn’t want anybody from AG-I to get that kind of pass…
Robert Nowall: I don’t know if we see the invisible plane at http://www.skin-horse.com/comic/a-desk-at , but the ensuing conversation refers to that, as well as to someone called Tarsier Girl. There’s also Shelby, apparently.
I’m sure at least some of the boxes on Sweetheart’s org chart refer to actual people, too. Probably enough of them to ensure that insubordination is dealt with according to AG-I’s policies.
Today’s strip clearly indicates the Cinderblock is much better suited to being a security officer than she is to I.T.
Maybe they can make Shelby their I.T. guy. Even if it’s not his particular bailiwick, he probably wouldn’t smash the computer in an attempt to calibrate it.
If they are seriously reconsidering the direction of the team (and these two actually have the authority to do that, which seems unlikely) maybe they will get Jonah and Nera after all? If they end their discriminatory diversity hiring, she would make a great computer gal.
Breadcrumb trail to find said compromised sources? Or just plain breadcrumbs?
And if just breadcrumbs, panko or italian seasoned?
I think she came to the end of the notes, so not even she knows what kind of breadcrumbs. She just likes breadcrumbs.
I prefer plain panko, you can have a lot more versatility in the seasoning with whatever they’re in.
I hope it’s not just a “hey, she’s part bird” thing. SciShow just told us that’s a no-no.
Call me a rebel, but if SciShow said it’s a no-no, then I really hope that it is just a “hey, she’s part bird” thing!

I get a very The Badger sort of vibe from this goose lady.

What’s going on at gocomics.com? I like the bigger image there, but dislike the unexplained missing strips.

Then again, with Goose Girl saying it, it definitely has more impact… if only on the eardrums.

Never noticed before Cinderblock started carrying her away, but Panoptica has quite the tush.

Well, RK was dressed in armor, and everyone else at AG-I seems to wear some variation on the unitard.
“Don’t boil our priests! They are friars!”
Don’t forget the recruiters Unity kept eating! I can see why they didn’t look favorably on her resume. ^o^
I wonder if it’s difficult to pick their clothes out of her teeth…

I think they just told Panoptica to Foucault off.
Mother Foucaulter!
Seems like Cinderblock is smarter, or at least more articulate, than she lets on.
