Page 112 – So Close
Man, the crowd was able to spur Sabrina and she was SO close! Loretta was able to head Sabrina’s escape from the camel clutch and I can promise that Loretta is done fooling around with Ultragirl. Expect Loretta to kick this into gear next episode.
And a little swerve with Brooke and Michael. It seems that Brooke is in charge of this tryst and whether or not Michael can help Brooke keep her job, its safe to say that Michael is for the time being, taking his lead from Brooke. I’ve thrown red herrings here and there, but this one is on the level, expect Brooke to be calling the shots when it comes to the Commissioners Assistant. First the boys at the Lolipop, now Michael. What is it about Brooke that guys can’t resist? A buddy of mine DID suggest that Michael is only giving Brooke a mammogram, of the oral persuasion. *groan*
New voting incentive of Sabrina by the lovely and talented Shawnti Therrien! Check it out!
What is it about Brooke that guys can’t resist?
She is “UltraBoobs” XD
Panel1-3: is there any rules in Rival Angels, a wrestler can’t have a relationship between officials and wrestlers? So Michael, is an assistant GM..is that illigal? the background color is excellent, kinda your watching them with an X-ray vision. or could it, Sun planned a hidden spy camera there and Sun is watching and recording this for evidence.. Sun is very sneaky one..
Panel 3: I will say it.. That’s a Boobie Trap.. Michael’s head is in between Brooke’s “UltraBoobs” Michael’s head will be trap, like a venus fly trap..
Michael called Brooke a Goddess? I wonder why? she loss 3 times? comparing Brooke’s beauty Sabrina is more beautiful than Brooke (IMO) could it be Michael called Brooke goddess, means Goddess of Boobs
Panel 4: Sabrina got heart.. not giving up dispite of injured ribs.. applause, applause for “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini.
Panel 5: Close but no cigar
Panel 7: Loretta used her weight, on the back on Sabrina.. veteran move there by “Latina Chick” Loretta Diaz.. I have to agree to The “Latina Chick” Loretta Diaz, she’s in control.. now the tide had really turn.. “Latina Chick” Loretta Diaz got 60% in this match..
Let’s Go Diaz.. Let’s Go Diaz
“Latina Chick”
Let’s Go Diaz..
hmmm.. This Monday Night Meltdown.. Catgirls and “Shinobi” “Lil Dragon” Sun Wong won, they’re face wrestler. no heel wrestler has won in this Night yet..
expect Brooke to be calling the shots when it comes to the Commissioners Assistant…
Ah? Could it be Brooke kinda used Michael, to gain.. Backstage power.. Vickie Guerrero and Edge, something like that.. this could be trouble for “Ultragirl” Sabrina Mancini and “Shinobi” “Lil Dragon” Sun Wong.. maybe Brooke will request a handicap match. Sun and Sabrina VS Zombie Luna, Lover Lola and “The Latina Chick” Loretta Diaz
I hope we can have an interview with Michael, how’s the feeling? something like that..
What is Panel 1-3 has to do in Team Player?
I really like the message there.. “In a Private, Locked. Office Backstage”
Really put the story.. In detailed.. Applause, Applause..
💡
Maybe Brooke made some lovely words to Michael.
say Michael join a club.. An elite club, Kiss Brooke’s Boobs club.. XD
even the room is lock, it’s funny let say.. Sun opened the lights with a video camera on her hand and shouted… “You just got Ninja’d” is kinda like punk’d
Let’s say Panel 1-3: showed at the titantron.. I think the audience will cheer.. “Let’s go Brooke” XD
Let’s say.. the door is lock.. should there be a ventilation grilles around. maybe Sun is hiding there.. Ninja Like.. or maybe a security camera inside..
LOL oh my! What a page 🙂
Brooke could just about get anything she wanted right now i think, what are the chances of him finding a quarter? 😀
Great panels Albone, i love the colouring. Nice to see Loretta also still in control of Ultragirl. Im not sure how Ultragirl will cope after that slam down on her ribs. I know Loretta isnt a heavyweight but even so shes got that latina booty and that HAD to hurt!
If Loretta had any sense shed reach the the shoulder of Ultragirl, flip her over and jump once again on those ribs before stayin there and asking for a pin count 🙂
Michael called Brooke a Goddess? I wonder why? she loss 3 times? comparing Brooke’s beauty Sabrina is more beautiful than Brooke (IMO) could it be Michael called Brooke goddess, means Goddess of Boobs
Well, Brooke might not be a better Wrestler than Sabrina, and she may not be prettier (that’s down to personal oppinion anyway) but she’s the one who’ dangling her boobs around in front of Michael’s nose, while Sabrina gets her flattened against the ring floor. (6)
Here’s a fun idea for an upcoming page: Sun walks down a backstage corridor and hears – destinctive noises – coming from an office door…
Panel 7: Loretta prevented Sabrina from reaching the rope, but she did release the camal-clutch anyway, so her gain is marginal at best. Also, if I understand the physics behind the pictures correctly, Loretta now sits too far forward on Sabrina’s back to engage a new camel clutch. So she would either have to move back a bit (giving Sabrina a tiny bit of space to react and break out) or try a different maneuver altogether.
I’m also beginning to think that kicking it into another gear may actually ultimately cost Loretta the match. Sabrina had it in hand until she decided to take one too many high risks. In Loretta’s case, I can see her making an error out of frustration that Sabrina just won’t die combined with the fact that the crowd is firmly in her corner. Frustration can lead to sloppiness, and that may give Sabrina the opening she needs to rally.
MGC, we will find out soon just what the rules are for employees dating in Rival Angels. Clearly, Brooke’s not worried about that now anyways, though she was initially improving with Michael. She wasn’t planning on seducing him, it’s just how it worked out. Will Brooke try to use this new ‘backstage power?’ AAHAHAHAHAHA! The real question is how long will it take for Brooke to use it. It’s possible that if two of them showed up on the jumbotron, what the crowd response is. I can tell you that some male readers think Michael’s cool, but also a sap being led around by the nose, so to speak. Most of the female readers aren’t really digging Brooke. Glad you’re enjoying the match between Sabrina and Loretta, its about to escalate!
Hey Matt, glad you liked the page and thanks for the kind words! I think you’re right about Brooke getting just about anything she’d want about now. It’s possible that there could be a quarter or two, but Brooke’s tight about her money, so not likely. 😛 Y’know, there’s no telling what Loretta is going to do, but if you see in the last panel, she’s starting to lose her composure a bit. She thinks Sabrina should have quit by now, instead of fighting back so her next move will be interesting.
Excellent observation JackAce about Brooke and Sabrina. Hmmmm…. Sun walking by the office door…. we haven’t seen Sun in a bit, but we will soon. Right on with panel 7! I agree completely with that.
Adon, what an interesting observation you’ve made, and it’s definitely frustration setting in on Loretta. “Die?” Did you write, “die?” Interesting that you’d use that word, I wonder if you’ve been peeking ahead… 😉
You know, I agree with the ladies on Brooke. Then again, I hated the WWE Diva competitions too. I don’t want to watch swimsuit competitions and who can tear a dress off the other faster when I tune in wrestling. I want to see people wrestle. Someone that’s not got much past her chest needs to be forgotten in favor of people with moves.
That said, Brooke has power and if she’d get some game to go with it, she could be another Awesome Kong. The problem is she seems more concerned with Awesome Boobs than Awesome Bombs.
Enough with ‘Barbie’ Brooke though. On to the important stuff, the match. Classic move to control the victim of a camel clutch. It usually comes up when someone is trying to stand and lift their attacker instead of going for the ropes, but it’s still a great way to add to the damage on the back as well as stop the rally. It does have one drawback though. If the one being held can react fast enough, and Ultragirl is fast, doing that too often ends up with the person on the bottom rolling over and causing the landing to be on knees, not the back.
Now that Dumpy Diaz is getting frustrated a bit, I suspect she’s going to go for some high impact, and it’s too late for that now. Sabrina has had time to shake the cobwebs and the crowd is back in the match. Her best chance so far has passed and Sabrina is going to blast her with something. Whisper in the Wind maybe? How about something more old school, like Air Pilman? There’s no way I see Loretta getting to keep this match at a slow pace for much longer. Ultragil is goin to fly soon. It’s just a matter of how she starts.
Oh dear. Brooke is a bad girl, using her Super Attributes to cloud men’s minds. She’s supposed to use them to save the world… no wait, that’s Wonder Woman’s job.
Brooke’s supposed to use her Super Attributes to sell tickets to Rival Angels and get people to tune in. Michael needs to find the rest of his clothes and get back on message…
Panel five is a masterful illustration of sheer desperation, Sabrina’s fingers speak of reversing the situation, if only she can grab the rope. The ropes form an arrow, pointing the way to a change of fortune.
Panel six is interesting; the fans are all in pastel colors in the mostly violet to blue range. These are colors associated with royalty and peace, though there isn’t much of that at the moment. Is this an indication of how the fans think of Sabrina?
Panel seven: You can feel Loretta knocking the wind out of Sabrina.
That’s right.
Feel.
Quite an accomplishment in a comic, the composition, shading, and artistry are perfect.
Alan, just keep ’em coming, I’ll be here.
I somehow doubt that the ‘Kiss Brooke’s Boobs Club’ is all that elite.
Sabrina, die? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
And Roller Derby Fan is right; you can feel the wind being knocked out of Sabrina.
-A. mouse
“Sabrina, die? NOOOO”
But, I think that die, is just an idiomatic expression. is like Sabrina’s fighting spirit won’t die, or why wouldn’t she give up or tap out.. not literary die..
Possible
💡
hmm.. thinking about it again.. “The Rock” became a heel, when someone posted “Die Rocky, Die!” could it be someone in the Rival Angel’s audience posted “Die Ultragirl, Die” and will turn Sabrina into heel.. could be, coul be
💡
Right on Salazen! I never liked the Diva competitions where they did the bootcamps and talent nonsense. None of that is relevant which is why I love SHIMMER and to a lesser but great extent, the TNA Knockout Division. I also think you’re right on about Brooke, and I love the ‘Barbie’ moniker. LOL, I’m going to remember that one. You’ve got a great handle on the match and I think you’re going to like where its heading. Air Pillman! If not now, then in the future I’ll be drawing that in. I also have a very specific moment for when Sabrina uses the Whisper in the wind. Seems we have some similar tastes Salazen. 😉
Thanks for the kind words, RDF, that means a lot to me. 🙂 I plan on being doing this for a long time to come. Brooke and Michael are going to be off of our radar for a little bit, until after this match concludes and we’ll see what they’ve been up to. I’m very happy with how panel 5 was received. I felt like I was cheating you guys at first because its not so heavy in detail, but it tells the story perfectly. The crowd coloring is always softer to show that they’re in some shadow, but that’s a good point about the color palette. I didn’t do it on purpose, but it could’ve been subliminal. I’m always mindful of the relationship between Sabrina and the crowd.
A Mouse, that particular club has many club members breeze through. 😛 MGC’s got the right idea about the upcoming ‘Die’ spot, but could it be rough for Sabrina? !! Whoooo, I’m happy to hear the page and particularly the panel of Loretta drilling Sabrina made you get caught up in the action. 🙂
MGC, the explanation will be soon revealed on the DIE mark. The crowd isn’t turning on Sabrina. The crowd turned on Rocky because he was over-the-top babyface that no one could take him seriously. Sabrina’s got quite a few more flaws than Rocky did at the time.
So this is what they call, “Sleeping your way to the top”.
Hey PS2 Kid, welcome and thanks for all the comments! This is a good example of that very saying. XD
