Grrl Power #1508 - Laces out! (Patreon)

Thank you so much for the support! You guys and grrls are awesome!

I've been working from home for the past 15 years, drawing this lovely comic for you guys, and I haven't had to deal with rush hour traffic in all that time, (outside of some poorly timed errands and whatnot) but I still firmly believe that people who drive down to the end of the merge lane when everyone else has already merged then forcibly nose their way in, thereby causing 80% of the actual traffic, deserve their own holocaust. 

If you're a geologist, and have opinions on what a cored out section of igneous mountainside should look like, or have other observations on the physics of what's happening on this page, well, now is your time to shine. Why Maxima decided on this approach vs just a really huge energy beam, who knows? Despite all the energy blast variations she can do, maybe her super petajoule shield buster beam always looks like the one she used on the Fel carrier, and the galaxy knows what that looks like. Also this does have its own cool factor to it. And despite probably being the first weapon* ever used, throwing a rock can still be an effective tactic against high-tech opponents, an archmage, a demon, a whole army, or even a Death Star. It's just a matter of scale, and/or velocity. Okay, the archmage would probably have the best chance against that sort of thing, but the nice thing about rocks is that they come in all sorts of sizes, and they're just laying around for free. A boulder the size of a house? Probably not a game-ender on the archmage. If you can throw an entire mountain? That would certainly scale the defensive mana expenditure at the least. 

*Like a tool based weapon, not claws or teeth or an aggressive pseudopod.
