Upstart Girls Assemble!!  Oh, those tricky Upstart Girls!  Or at least, tricky Brooke. That’s not saying that Krystin doesn’t appreciate the distraction as it’s giving her a chance to recover from Sara’s sneak attack. Hmm, lot’s of dirty fighting already in this one. These sort of situations tend to escalate too and we’re not even in the arena yet!

Back to this update, Brooke and Amanda kind of show their spitefulness in that last panel. We’ll find out some more of their motivation for coming out here next update. Can you guess? Yeah, it’s more than just ’supporting their girl.’

Comic Creator’s Alliance
Lora Innes has put together a coalition of webcomic artists to try and shed some light on a particular nasty problem. Comic Creators are coming together to raise money and awareness for the problem of Human Trafficking in the world today. Creators are contributing art to a single image to help generate donations on January 11th, which is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day here in the U.S. If you want to find our more, click here. If you want to see some work-in-progress from me, check it out here.

Well, that’s one way to start a match. Despite Sara’s early start in the match, she’s not doing anything illegal and as you may have noticed, the match just started backstage!  While this is an anything-goes match, the pinfall or submission have to happen INSIDE the ring.  They can beat each other up as much as they want anywhere they want, but if they want to win, they’ll have to eventually make their way back to ringside.  Good thing that there’s cameramen around to capture all of the action, or we’d never know what’s going on! XD

So, any predictions on what’s going to happen and who’s going to win?

Just what is Sun looking for?  Or rather, whom?  Damage Inc girls seem pretty sincere in their happiness for Sun, if not a little bit distracted by other forms of celebration. This is Sun’s first win with Damage Inc but it’s business as usual for Damage Inc. While Damage Inc gets into their party mode back in their private locker room, it’s time to get ready for the next match.  Can you recognize a certain sassy schoolgirl in the background?

When your mentor says you’re doing something right, you’re doing something right. That’s a pretty big deal to get dropped on to Sabrina’s lap. Sabrina just didn’t win a match in a tournament, she also won herself some respect and some higher expectations. Does she really know what’s coming down the road for her?

Hmm, what’s that bit about Marina going on about not being, ‘trashy?’

A Sun sighting! You remember when Sun was hooting and hollering in support of Sabrina? Well, she’s not going to let Sabrina in on that little bit and instead give her a proper scolding. She does ask Sabrina a fair question though. Did Sabrina get the notion that she has to prove herself to people like Monica out of her system?

We’ll know for sure on Friday!

By the skin of her teeth, Sabrina escapes any further injury from Hell’s Belles. They had her down but she did just enough, namely psych out De Sade with the threat of an Ultrakick to make her escape. Sabrina’s up for a challenge, but three (with weapons) to one are not good odds. The Belles are hot at the loss of the tournament match and the opportunity loss of laying a beating on someone post-match. Sabrina was even able to throw a verbal barb De Sade’s way. Probably doesn’t equal all of the double team cheating and after match beatdown, but it’s enough for Sabrina. And, this is probably not the last time Sabrina runs across the Hell’s Belles.

As we can see from the last panel though, Sabrina’s not out of the fire yet. Any ideas on who the mystery person calling out Sabrina is? A new challenger maybe?
