Would there be any overlap in a Venn diagram with the Itty Bitty Titty Committee?

In THIS comic?

In THIS comic?

Isn't it kind of all relative?

Who's the smallest in SJI, anyway? Is it Mallory or Echo?

Echo, I think, although it's not canonical or anything.

Mallory appears to be significantly larger than Echo.  It's a toss-up for our largest women too.  Is it Erin?  Jacqui? Pearl?  Echo's platinum-blonde honor guard partner whose name I can never remember?

I think Daphne said that Erin ontologically has the largest rack in the story. Even given that other characters have been subjected to BE.

As far as the comic goes, I'm still in the 'Claudia must be MCed into wearing nothing but that leather catsuit' camp. It's possible that she can't leave the house, either.

The other "honour guard" was confirmed to be Meghan.  And I have an unconfirmed hunch that the maid is Ashley.

On topic, continued excellence in storytelling and art.

Agreed.

I know that there's supposed to be a bit of a mystery about how it all works, but the day-to-day at the NY harem, where everyone's been subjected to MC but there's no actual controller around anymore, would be interesting to see. Bunch of hot babes in various fetish outfits and states of undress who presumably were MCed into being nymphomaniacal bisexuals, some of whom are even aware of this but can't help themselves... seems like a fun time.

Meghan.  Right.

Now, who was Ashley before she fell into the sphere of the Kupplers?  Have we met her before?  Was she one of the girls from Dani's "Good Old Days" database?

Yes, the art and storytelling are excellent.  I do have a question.  What's Derek reaching for in the last panel?  Keys?  It looks like something else--and innocuous things tend to turn out to be important in the SJI-verse.

Good question.  I'm not sure.  It kind of looks like he's reaching into an open drawer, but it isn't clear what's inside.

Echo, I think, although it's not canonical or anything.

After the story has run it's course (you do have an ending timetable planned right?) will we be getting a list of the measurements and cup sizes of the primary characters?

As for what's in the drawer, how wrong is the guess that Derek is reaching for the reddish pen/pencil/crayon thing?

And after just having gone through all the full story again so I could remember who most of these people are, Why does Hitomi have stickers for japanese porn that was made right around the time she was born?  Akira I get, (and not porn obviously) but a sticker of a La Blue Girl sidekick?

No idea on the stickers.

Oh...horsefeathers.  She's desperate enough to give Derek a gun.  The guy with the Vader poster?  Uh-oh.  If he were remotely competent, that'd be 20X scarier than unhinged Vik.  As is, I have to keep reminding myself that with a gun, Derek is Dusty from The Three Amigos.

I'd honestly trust his female compatriot (I don't remember her name) a bit more, she seemed somewhat competent.

Her, that's Jen.  I've lamented in other places that we seemed doomed to have her only appear in 3 or 4 episodes giving Derek an unearned aura of competence...well, lending him her earned one.

Perhaps she could be Unflappable Sue's blind date in coming episodes?

late but Nice hand gun
Who get shot ?
Will Derek shoot hand or foot?

Post by: jmundt29 on September 14, 2014, 09:14:18 pm
Even though I threw him a derogatory movie reference, I never considered the possibility that Derek might accidentally shoot himself.  Is the possibility of such comedy worth the nightmare of giving him a gun?  I don't know.  I hope so.

I'm not as sanguine about Derek as you are.  His failures all came from thinking with his dick while on detached duty.  It's quite possible he'll be dangerous when he isn't trying to get laid.

I just checked the Dramatis Personae.  I see no mention of a person named Ashley.  Of course, I don't see Jen or Sue in there either.  So, that could mean nothing.  Refresh my memory.  When did we meet Ashley?

Ashley was on the computer screen in 53 showing the members of Dani's former harem. It was just conjecture in the forum that Claudia's maid could be her - based purely on appearance. Echo and Meghan were identified on the same basis and that was confirmed by Daphne. No such confirmation has been given about Ashley.
