Rival Angels Page 161-Ultragirl

You just have to know that there’s more to this story, both before and after this incident and hopefully its something we can get into down the road. But for Sabrina, this was the turning point where she knew that if she did right by the fans that they would do right by her and hasn’t looked back. This is also the time where management started to become aware of Sabrina and get her ready for her call to the big leagues. Coincidence? XD
Sun still doesn’t want to let Danielle off the hook and that might be an entertaining encounter, though it seems that YouTube is going to get a few hits from Sabrina’s match with Mistress Dark. Hopefully, its still got the after match altercation. 
Seems a lot of audience just for a developmental territory show. I thought the crowd was only a few, as shown in the early page of rival angels.
Anyway, when can we expect the continuation of the TV Tournament ?
Panel 1: Gandalf after the Balrog.. using a LOTR reference.. as I recall LOTR. Gandalf fell, into the with Balrog.. not Knockout like “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini here..
Â
Hmmm.. “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini, is kinda good hanging around with her.. eventhough I Boo’ed her last year.. and still not support her here against Jennifer Needles in the T.V. tournament.. but “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini, is a cool girl to hangout.. she knows He-Man, She-ra, LOTR, Star-wars.. cool to hangout with her.. IMO..
Â
Panel 7: Sun really like to fight Danielle Perfection.. the question is can Sun handle Danielle Perfection? I really like to see how it comes to their match..
Â
But I have to say this to “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini.. that eventhough, sometime fans cheer “Ultragirl” it’s still won’t take affect. like Your mind, and will like to fight, but the body won’t respond.. maybe “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini, need that lesson too..Â
I really hope, “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini throw “Biohazard” or even “Naruto” or better “Street Fighter” references  into her talks.. in the future..
I just want ask.. after that incident happen, The next match is Danielle Perfection VS “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini right? in which link to Episode 1-3. or there’s other match before Danielle Perfection VS “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini?
Well ps2kid, the crowd was bigger for this show. XD Â Actually, I started to take a little more time with the backgrounds so I think when you see a more packed crowd, the difference will show a little better. The continuation of Round One of the Television Tournament will happen in Chapter 9, with this chapter just about wrapped up.
And this never-ending, Green source of energy will be the reason Ultragirl defeats the Pin-Head – I mean Needles. She’ll be tested to her limits for sure, but if Sun can keep the nut-cases and their steel chairs away from Sabrina during the match, I think Sabrina can win. One of the other things Sabrina will need to be careful about is the distraction of the Hell Bellies outside the ring – that can ruin her concentration and add a lot of extra stress. Sun will have her work cut out for her.
Now, what will delay or prevent Sun from being by Sabrina’s side during the match? The Hell Bellies didn’t get to be number one by just swinging chairs – they’ve probably figured Sabrina will have back up. OR, they are so over-confident that Needles can defeat Sabrina without cheating that they have not planned ahead.
One last thought, what if Vincent referees the match? Assuming he’s out of the hospital already…
2 points for Sabrina for knowing LotR.
And you know, just to clear Sabrina’s name here – Neither the Goth-a-holic nor Miss Perfection would have won if they hadn’t tag teamed Sabrina, which strikes me as illegal… but I don’t know much about wrestling. I don’t think Sabrina can beat herself up too bad about this loss.
Go Ultragirl!
Good stuff, Albone. Panel 6 is my personal favorite.
yeah. Good page.
Hehehe…’pinhead.’ That was funny as hell, GhostEraser! Â You’ve got a lot of great thoughts and ideas about the upcoming match between Sabrina and Jennifer. Â It’ll certainly be interesting to see what happens in and outside of the ring. Â You know Sun will be in Sabrina’s corner, but what about Krystin and Brooke? Â They may or may not be around…! XD Â And where is Vincent? Â Still recovering no doubt. Â We definitely haven’t seen the last of him.
Is that t-shirt the first official teaser for Chapter 10? I know that’s how I view it.
Just to show a better picture of that T-shirt:
I’m wondering if this was the incident that alerted the Rival Angels management to Sabrina’s star potential… anyone that has fans that loyal in the development league warrants attention.
Action Hair sighting… notice how Sabrina’s hair gets more lively as the episode progresses.
Panel six is great for all sorts of reasons; among them is how Sabrina has the most detail and the rest of the panel is drawn more sketchily. This is the way someone who was there would remember the scene in this panel, the style helps create and maintain the impression we’re not just reading a comic, we’re following a visual blog of real events. I recall commenting on this before, just thought I’d point out how this visual consistency supports the storytelling.
Even though there are more spectators in this ep than waaay back in ep 1, there still might only be fifty to seventy five people in the stands. Notice how there isn’t a second row of seats in panels four and five. Or is the gray patch in panel four supposed to be a row of people? Even so there might only be two hundred spectators.
We’ve seen how the national Rival Angels league works, but don’t have that many data points on the developmental. I imagine it is something like major vs minor league baseball. Of course here you have Commissioner Gabrielle running the whole show ( what I’m blunderingly getting at is RA doesn’t have team owners as a political faction like baseball does )
It’ll be neat to get back to the TV Tournament. The alternating ring matches/ personal life chapters makes for a well rounded storytelling style.
Ah!! “Pin-Head”… Ah!! I totally disagree. that calling Jennifer Needles pinhead..
Jennifer Needles is one of the best, character, great wrestler in “Rival Angels” so I totally disagree calling her pin-head..and also Jennifer Needles will win against “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini in the TV Tournament.. heheh..
ALL FALL TO THE HELL’S BELLES..
Excellent storytelling on Ultra-Girl waking up. That, with Gandalf reference, makes this one of my favorite pages.Â
I love reading your page breakdowns, RDF! Â Always well written and well thought out. You’re just about dead on, on a lot of your observations. Â This is where the front office starts to notice Sabrina’s fan appeal as well as the amount of people in attendance. Â Plus, I love how you notice the hair movements throughout. XD Â I’m really glad you enjoyed the page. Â I’m looking forward to getting back to the TV Tournament as well and I do believe the next chapter of Rival Angels will begin before the end of January.
