I like that Zii still cares enough about Angel to point that out to him.
This strip also confirms Zii was an active participant in this fight.

One black eye each. And the penny drops with Dillon.

Exactly what anyone did do is an interesting question, given what happened to Angel's bandages, but I doubt that we'll ever find out. I'd guess that Friday will switch the viewpoint back to Ruby and Ramona, who ought to have something to say now - or just focus on Dillon having a freak-out over implications.

I'd suspect that it's simply that Zii really doesn't particularly want to see someone in hospital with broken ribs or whatever. I mean, she's slapstick-violent enough to hit back if someone takes a swing at her, but she's not evil. Plus, well, Angel is being a pratt, using a binding method that is evidently well known to be a bad idea, and this way, Zii gets the pleasure of telling Angel not to be a pratt while retaining the moral high ground.Cortez wrote:I like that Zii still cares enough about Angel to point that out to him.
Well, she evidently hit back. But the last strip showed Angel attacking Zii, so whatever she did can be rated as self-defence.Cortez wrote:This strip also confirms Zii was an active participant in this fight.

Yes, that's my favourite part, too. They just finished kicking each other's asses, and here she is, giving him tips to AVOID injury.Cortez wrote:I like that Zii still cares enough about Angel to point that out to him.
I swear I will, I'll make you smile.

Not that Angel's likely to heed that advice, considering her response in the last panel. it's coming from someone she hates after all, and who follows the advice of someone they can't stand?

Re: 09-12-15 You know
I'm wondering if we'll get a clarification of the Angel-Ramona relationship there. My first wild guess is that they're sisters, and I could see a concerned sister jumping in on a point like that.

Googles advertising rules must be confused! Dillons nipples can be shown, but can Angels? Would that blow their minds?

I'm a little confused on why the breast binding is necessary at all for Angel, she seems flat enough to not need it for the intended flat-chested effect.

Re: 09-12-15 You know
We interrupt this fight - and comic - for a public service announcement . . . .
Angel always seems to lose to Zii. No wonder she's bitter. I must say, though, from my point of view Ruby's first meeting is going swimmingly. Let's see what Jerzy has to say about it when he dashes in.
Dillon is an actor. He should be a little more careful about his face. If he gets penalized for slowing down production it might be a valuable lesson for him. It does seem that Angel was the attacker, but Dillon could have listened to Zii and disengaged earlier.

Except no one has lost this fight or won. They are simply cooling down.
Not sure if she's getting pleasure from it, Zii does seem genuinely concerned seeing as she brings it up in the middle of a fight.Spidrift wrote:One black eye each. And the penny drops with Dillon.

Not if Zii gives him a better alternative, assuming there aren't other reasons he's using this method of binding that aren't him simply not knowing better.themacnut wrote:Not that Angel's likely to heed that advice, considering her response in the last panel. it's coming from someone she hates after all, and who follows the advice of someone they can't stand?

Angel does seem to go in for a lot of rather baggy tops in male persona, making the binding look a bit superfluous. But despite her own claims about being flat-chested, when her female persona puts on a dress, she seems to have a discernible if slim bust.Varanus wrote:I'm a little confused on why the breast binding is necessary at all for Angel, she seems flat enough to not need it for the intended flat-chested effect.
Except that Angel kept Jerzy's company, while Zii didn't, and kept Jerzy so well under the thumb that Angel can get away with pushing Jerzy out of the room when Zii is around. That's winning the war.christopheftw wrote:Angel always seems to lose to Zii. No wonder she's bitter.
Well, maybe less pleasure than satisfaction. And Zii is quite quick-witted; I suspect that she's just spotted something she happens to know is an anomaly (and also Angel being a twit), and reflexively comments.Cortez wrote:Not sure if she's getting pleasure from it, Zii does seem genuinely concerned seeing as she brings it up in the middle of a fight.
But like I said, I don't suppose that Zii particularly wants Angel badly hurt. She's vengeful and excitable, but she's never shown any sort of mean streak.

So, I take it, this is a rewrite of how Dillion was going to find out Angel is a female, to put in there is safer ways to bind herself?
