Is that Johannes's secretary? Does she do ASMR videos on the side?

Jakob's network finally touches base with him?  Or is there a pernicious patriarch out there monitoring everything?

Most likely Jakob.

So.... who is the daughter that's failed (which means he's talking to a parent in the know).

Dani?
Pearl/Miriam?

I'm confused as to if the first two panels represent the same phone conversation as the rest of them... the second panel certainly ends with what might be a goodbye. The women who work for his organization that might have failed - Cherry, Dani, and possibly Miriam. Or the courier with the badonkadonk.

If he's still talking to Angela (Yay! We have a name!), though, it really makes me wonder who her daughter is. Probably Cherry, in that case.

It must have made a refreshing change. (Only joking.)


I'm sure the first conversation ends at panel two. I thought perhaps he might not be on the phone the rest of the page: I was thinking maybe Rain.

If this is Jakob, it's hard to see why he only has ten minutes to get out - certainly in terms of the threat posed by the women we know about. They've only just come to know he's still alive.

There are two possible exceptions there. Firstly Mallory, daughter of George Mallory (quite possibly that one in this comic) is a bit of an unknown quantity and apparently kills people. And we don't know anything about Astrid (which is after all a Germanic name), and it seems she's about to enter the stage.

My guess is it's Rain though, because as we know, it's always Rain.

But is it Jakob?

And will we get a mini-milestone splash page?

Incidentally, I cleared out my YouTube history and for some reason it's been recommending all these ASMR videos to me, which is what prompted my comment above.

This evening this one was top of the pile:

(If you're going to be annoyed at being sent unnecessarily to a video of a woman whispering, I'll tell you now: it's just a video with a striking similarity to panel one.)

The only reason I could think he'd want to get out in 10 minutes is if General Pellerin was the kind of guy to use Canadian national defense resources to get revenge on the guy who mind controlled his daughter, and he found out somehow. Canada attacking Switzerland out of the blue would be an interesting headline, at least.

"Two most famously neutral countries at war."  You're right.  Interesting headline.

I'm not sure who Angela's kid is.  We can rule out Pearl because we know who her biological mother is.  We can rule out Mallory for the same reason.

Jenn has been Sam Weinberg so far "I have no responsibilities here whatsoever."  She was there to make sure Derek didn't tromp on his....toes too hard trying to execute Claudia's instructions.  I'd tend to lean away from Dani (although one could expect her mother to be quite striking), and Jakob hasn't caught Erin yet.

So..my best guess would be either Cherry or Claudia or someone we haven't met yet.  Unless, perhaps Unflappable Sue is about to be considerably more flapped?

To clear things up, Jakob is not talking to Angela from panel three onwards.
