If this were on TV, this probably would’ve been dragged out a little longer, but it’s not. Here, we cut to the chase and with Sabrina and Angel getting the ‘win’ over Xtina, the ref rules that this match continues. It is a bit unfair that Xtina lost this way but even though it was very tricky by Angel, it wasn’t against the rules. Angel is raring to go but Sabrina’s been roughed up pretty good. Does she have enough to continue or is Angel going to roll her? And is it time for a Sun sighting?
Btw, I’m in Las Vegas! I have written this in the past to bring you this update while I go wheeling and dealing in Sin City. I won’t be around very much but you guys do a great job of having really great conversations. Enjoy the updates and wish me luck!
Angel Soprano…Hell’s Belle? She has a deal with the devilChloe that says so. Plus, it’s not hard to fathom that Angel picking the spot where Sabrina was going to make Xtina tap wasn’t Chloe-schemed.
Poor Angel. She thought she had the best spot but Sabrina and Xtina are showing some intestinal fortitude and not giving up to the party crasher. Angel can’t believe that she didn’t pick up the win and is taking it up with the referee, Zach. But while she’s distracted with not getting the pinfall, it looks like Sabrina and Xtina are getting their bearings back and from the look of that last panel, they seem awfully determined. Bad times for Angel? Maybe. What’s going to happen next??
Lora Innes created a non-profit group dedicated to shining a bright light on human trafficking (aka slavery). She got a bunch of webcomic creators together to draw a gal from their cast and she assembled them into a single wallpaper. Sabrina joins the ranks with Bea, Xylia, Hazel, Nastajia and 85 other characters in a snazzy wallpaper gift for your donation.

My friend NAAN did a wonderful commission of Sun and Sabrina. Maybe something from the future? I know a lot of you want to see them reconcile and back to being BFF’s again. So Vote!
Some of you have guessed this coming and here it is. Angel Soprano, the winner of the Bonus Life Battle Royal and by winning that, earned a way back into the tournament. You might remember (or click the link and see) that this is how Angel operates. She waits for her opponents to wear each other out and then strike. She quite literally picked her exact spot to enter this match and this is now a triple threat match. Though, by the looks of things this match is all but over. Last update, Sabrina looked like she had the match won by getting Xtina to tap, but that seems like an eternity ago. Xtina’s in no shape to break up the pinfall and the only thing the fans can do is express their frustration and unhappiness.
Here’s a quick 4-second YouTube clip of the Killshot:
At the end of 2009, Lora Innes created a non-profit group dedicated to shining a bright light on human trafficking (aka slavery). She got a bunch of webcomic creators together to draw a girl from their cast and she would assemble into a single wallpaper. 87 creators later and there’s a snazzy wallpaper gift for your donation. Without further ado, I will let Lora take it from here:
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” -Margaret Mead
Monday, January 11th is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. To participate, we formed the Comic Creator’s Alliance–a group of over eighty comic book creators (both web and print) who volunteered our artistic talents to raise money and awareness for this cause. You may not know it, but there are currently 27 million enslaved people worldwide- more than double the number of enslaved Africans during the trans-Atlantic slave trade. UNICEF estimates that 1.2 million children every year are sold into slavery, most of it sexual. The US Department of Justice estimates 16,000 victims of human trafficking are brought into the United States every year. Unlike slavery in the 19th century, what is happening today is happening in secret. So it won’t end until awareness is raised, and people like you and me take a stand.
So here’s what we did: each creator contributed an original drawing of one of our own female characters, and combined them into a single wallpaper image. The wallpaper features characters from The Phoenix Requiem, Girls with Slingshots, Earthsong, Looking for Group, Shadowgirls, The Uniques and four IDW Publishing titles: Fallen Angel, The Dreamland Chronicles, Love and Capes and The Dreamer, and lots, lots more! Donate today to download this unique, once-in-a-lifetime wallpaper. The Donations Drive will last for two weeks, from January 11th – 24th. All proceeds will be split evenly between Love146 and Gracehaven House- two organizations working on rehabilitation of victims and prevention of this crime.
