Page 260 – Shattered
Aug26
Heartbreaking all around. I mean, these girls have enough people gunning for them without exploding on each other. And while Sun’s critique of Sabrina might’ve started out friendly enough, we’ve gone way over that line a long time ago and now there once unbreakable friendship seems shattered. Can these two be friends again after this? If they can’t, what’s going to happen at the rookie house? What’s going to happen with the Upstarts?  Where do we go from here? No help from the crowd, either. They’re speechless, including Brooke which doesn’t happen often.
Lora did an awesome job on this page. Â From beginning to end, it was one giant ‘wow,’ because of the consequences of both girls actions. Â Aftershocks on Friday!
Sun underestimated Sabrina; Brooke is witnessing what can happen to her if she keeps trying to undermine Sabrina and Krystin realizes she should be careful.
First time I ever thought Sun looked pathetic. Oh and do I have to break Sabrina’s heart for her to ultrasplash me?  I don’t think the relationship is beyond repair.
hahahah!! still Ultrasplash executed! Devaju! in episode 1-3! I almost got it! Sabrina leaves Sun! and as Sabrina and Sun parted! I really have to applause for Lora Innes! a basic drama! Basic drama always hits the target! love what just happen here!! Tragic! Drama!! I love sad story!! heheh!!
Â
And I really also want thank ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini!!! didn’t hold back on a fight!! thumbs up! I usually criticize Sabrina, for lack of killer instinct!! this one shut me out!!! yeah!! ‘ULTRAGIRL’!!!
Â
Panel 1: why Sabrina still did a powerslam? hmmm.. she could ultrakick Sun here.. then Ultrasplash lastly 630 splash.. hehehe!!
Â
I really think of one danger here!! if Sabrina VS Sun happen!! I kinda think Sun will win!! just a thought!! bad omen!
Â
Sabrina didn’t got mad on Sun, joining Damage Inc.. so I think Sabrina is okay for Sun being in Damage Inc.. just don’t lie to Sabrina and break her heart..
Â
Since Yvonne wants Sun to be friend with Sabrina, just in case.. Sun really did a wrong decision! Sun is not a shinobi!! what she always proclaimed to be.. a Shinobi can be double agent, a spy! then Sun really ruin her cover!!
coz of jealousy of Sabrina’s fame..
I must be some kind of crazy mind reader… OR I just really love this comic (though she might have been TOO nice.. I guess she needs fence mending room though). Great work guys.. sun wanted to twist the knife on Sabrina for some reason.. so sabrina took the hit.. rolled with it and gave Sun her come upins. Though now I am left worried for sabrina, a world full of enemies and not a single friend.
To quote the grand Stone Cold Steve Austin.. brina just stomped a mudhole in Sun’s @ss and WALKED IT DRY! (lol)
Awesome story arc. Sabrina, the Baby Face shines through again, especially in the tears. As usual, she pulls out all the stops when she feels she has to and Sun BEGGED for it. That was a classinc betrayed face beatdown. Well done.
On the flip side, Go SUN! She’s been on the edge of a proper heel turn for a long time and it’s good to see it finally happen. And what better way to break off from the one person she’s been getting too close to than to hurt her as much as possible? Beautifully done and good to see she never thought just how far that knife had twisted. Classic loner mistake there and she ate it for making said mistake.
I have a feeling it’s going to get really interesting when things go south in Damage Inc though. You know the new kid in the established stable will take the heat for every mistake that happens, even if it’s not her fault. Sabrina will mend things with some of her lost friends eventually. Like say… Mighty Meatball… uh… Monica. Sun may not know how. It’s going to be interesting. Very interesting.
Well, Lora seems to write Sabrina better than Sun. This was a good ep, maybe her best to date. It’s possible the girls will become friends again, but I think it’ll take something on the order of Xena’s “The Bitter Suite” to get them back together. We’ll be waiting. Thanks.
Sun’s chickens have just come home to roost and rightly so. That whole nightmare scenario of “ensuring betrayal by expecting it”? That just happened.
As predicted by et moi! I’m Prestwick and I’M AWESOME!
they have to make up. it will take alot, im thinking sun saving brina, possibly at the cost of her place as a damager or at the least sun taking a beating as she does it, but either way if sun saves brina then it might just show her to be a regular old sellout, not a selfish one 😉
Â
i still love you sunshine!
Here’s a had critique! on Sun..
Â
Sun always says “I’m a Ninja!” “Ninja’D” Â but when it comes to rough times.. she doesn’t perform what the crowd what.. Rough times, or crucial event! like ‘Ultra-Dragon’.. is like Sun got choke on the middle..
if Sun make Sabrina take back her words “We’ll see how far you will get in your life” Â if Sun won against Sabrina for the T.V Belt!! there I will applause for Sun!
Â
Sabrina Mancini.. I underestimated Sabrina last year! she improved! now she got the killer instinct! applause for Ultragirl!!
Â
here are some Question
Since she is a member on Damage Inc, why do she still hangout with Sabrina? I mean better way is to ignore it right!
Angel Soprano? member of the Hell’s Belles? or not? why is she there on cameo last episode?
‘GoDDess Aphrodite’ Brooke Lennox? is she still want to be part of the Hell’s Belles? since Sun joined Damage Inc, will Brooke join Hell’s Belles?
panel 6: how come Sun is still conscious? she should be outcold? did Sabrina pulled out her Ultrasplash? I mean prevented it to the deadly?
Â
(sorry this is buzzing on my mind.. taken from Transformer the movie 1986)
Soundwave: Soundwave superior! constructicons inferior!”
===
Â
If Sabrina will used this now.. hmmm
Sabrina said to Sun “Ultragirl Superior! Lil Dragon inferior!”
😛
🙂
hehehe!!
Â
Â
Well done Sabrina!! 😀 YEAH ULTRAGIRL RULE!!!!
Great drama, i love it.
panel 5-6: Sabrina tears, pretty well done, she realy look sad, love the art and the purety of sab, she just lost a friend, she need to heal her wounds.
Whew! Great story! Great art! What a climax here. And it’s nice to know there’s lots more.
Thanks!
I still think Brooke should be the one getting that kind of beating.
Damn, now that was a straight out ass kicking. I don’t think Sun is going to let that one go.
I have to say something here about that last panel. Mr. Evans, you are a better artist than I am, but when you do a rear 3/4 shot you never draw any eyes on the characters, and that bugs me. If you can see a nose then you can probably see a corner of an eye or something. Not trying to be a critic here.
I have only two words…. “ALLITERATION FATALITY!!!!”
Picky, I think that message is certainly out there now. Â Her roommates are pretty shocked now, but they know what to expect from Sabrina if you cross her like that.
Hey Rorschach! Â There’s plenty of reasons for Sabrina to Ultrasplash you. 😛 Â Yeah, Sun does look pretty bad here. Â Regretful even. Â I like your optimism that these two might be friends again one day.
MGC, Lora is good!! Â She knocked it out of the park, leaving Sun and Sabrina apart. Â Yep, Sabrina’s not so much mad that Sun joined Damage Inc. Â It’s that she used and lied to Sabrina about it, even though Sun’s been a member of Damage Inc for less than a week. Angel will get sorted out soon. Â As for Brooke, the Belle’s rudely snubbed her. Â Even Brooke has too much self respect to join them now.
Ha ha Drew!  That was always a great line by Stone Cold.  Yeah, you got it down there, but while it does look pretty bad for Sabrina friend-wise, I think  we’ll see someone or someones (okay, not a word) pick up the slack a little bit. 😉
Hey Salazen! Â So glad you liked the latest turn of events. Love the breakdown you got on Sabrina and Sun. Â On the money! Â It should be pretty interesting for both girls going forward. Â Monica you say? Â I think she’ll be appearing at the next Monday Night Meltdown…. 😉
Darkmark, I’m very happy you enjoyed this update. A reconciliation is probably possible, I mean, anything is in wrestling, so we’ll see. Â I don’t know if we’ll do ‘Bitter Suite,’ but anything with Callisto in it is money. 😛
Prestwick, you are a mad genius! Â XD Â ‘Ensuring betrayal by expecting,’ is poetic. Â I’m buying the first round.
T-M, Sun loves you too. 😉 Â I love the optimism that these two might be friends again. Â Stranger things have happened, and this is pro wrestling.
Ha ha, Svan! Â Sabrina loves the support, but she’s a little down right now. Â Glad you’re enjoying the drama! Â Lora is a master at pulling these kind of strings. Sabrina is going to need some time. Â I wonder what’ll happen next?
Hey Champ!  Thanks and I’m sure Lora echoes the sentiments.  In fact, I will speak for her: ‘Thanks!’  lol  More is on the way!
Wise Mankey, there’s time, there’s time!! Â Brooke wasn’t nominated for 2008 and 2009 Antagonist of the Year for nothing.
Hey Ken, y’know, I think you might be right about that last panel. Â Consider it fixed! Â Or at least better. Â Always appreciate the comments and critiques. Â It helps me evolve into something better. Â Ass kicking is right, and Sabrina and both girls are feeling it.
Ninja’d by Cookie Ogre!
Haha! Â Glad you liked Sabrina’s kiss off there. 🙂 Â I thought it worked great myself.
It had to be done. Sun’s demeanor was out of control and people can only take so much. You can tear by the tears it absolutely tore Sabrina’s heart out to do what she did. But she’s hurt and she feels betrayed and to be honest, who can blame her? I would like to think this outburst by Sabrina would cause the Upstarts to become a tighter group…But with the way Brooke is, you never know. Great page and a very powerful statement!
Wow, great page, where Sabrina give Sun some beating. I knew what Sun said to Sabrina, must of toughen her up.
Now THAT’s a falling out!
On a side note, is it just me or is Krystin looking more and more like and more like MVP with every strip?
Bet you anything that she’ll start sporting a nasal strip…
blah Sabrina might have got that set of moves here but that was only after Sun steped away and let go go and turned her back.Sun, selfish, well duh you need to watch out for oone person in the ring and thats you.in the end she never gonna climb far as she can go if she gotta pull Sabrina out of the fire vs the Belles. i see Sun maybe have soem time to prove herself to Damage INC but i see her climbing higher and hopefullyin more matchs now.Sabrina tho just lost the one person who really watched her back. Krytin doesn”t care and Brooke wants to strike her down. she is surprounded by enmeies and no one to truey watch ehr back anymore and at the time she needs it most.
Oh no! I’ve always been a huge fan of the Sun/Sabrina friendship! ::Sniff!::
I’ll have my fingers crossed for these two friends to make amends!
lets be honest, sabrina is so hurt because she loves sun. thats loveS, not loveD. shes p’d. she has a right to be. but at the end of the day i think even brina has to admit that the upstarts couldnt have lasted forever nomatter who it was made of. if you factor in that you have 4 people with not only very different personalities but with very high ambitions, it was a timebomb. sun just hit the manual destruct button earlier than brina expected because she got a shot at her dream. sabrina is probably the only person in wrestling who wouldnt do the same.
Wow, that was more of a “for future reference” kind of statement, wasn’t actually suggesting that you go back and change that.
The Radicalz didn’t last in wwe back in the day.. a bit different because those 4 were already midcarders or better (poor perry saturn) but yea a “HEY WE’RE NEW” stable is never gonna last.. and they weren’t even really one in my mind. I don’t agree Jenn.. maybe she did kind of grab Sun but she made the turn.. maybe Sun should have not underestimated Sabrina? As usual I have to agree with T-M.. Sabrina isn’t the kind of girl to ditch someone she LOVES.. it might have changed and is very hurt but the second sun honestly needs sabrina’s help.. I think she’ll come running. Plus there is still my whole mega swerve idea.. of course the belle’s saw this or will hear about it.. this wouldn’t have worked again if it was half ass.. it HAD to be extreme it HAD to blow people away.. and if it is a mega swerve I owe Albone and Lora a medal or something 🙂
The upstart are not realy a group, they was just some new wrestlers who lives togethers, the thing between Sun and Sab is not ”realy” about the ”upstarts” here… this is about Sun and Sabrina, was suppose to be best friends and stick together, not because they are upstart, but cause they learned each others and become best friend and also a team after all and.. Sun made a major turn in the heel way by betrayed her only friend, this created an awesome and epic drama around Sabrina and its cool…. Also, some people seem to think RA is about all the wrestlers in the roster in general. Remember that RA main heroine is Sabrina ”Ultra-Girl” Mancini, its all about that and the story will always be ”principaly”around her and, in the long road, even if she will fall sometime, Brina will reach the top cause its her story after all, the other involved are people around the heroins or her friends
Its a good work Lora and Albone , Brina suffered a little of a lack of popularity but now she seem to have gain some more popularity 😉
RAWF, good eye for what’s going on here as well as what the future might hold. Â I think you’ll find Friday’s update particularly interesting.
Adam, what Sun said at least fired Sabrina up! Â And we know Sabrina has a bit of a short temper.
Right on, Trevor!
Ha ha, Prestwick! Â No plans to put Krystin into a power ranger-ish outfit. Â The nasal strip would’ve been a nice touch though. 😛
Again Jenn, you have such a sharp view of the other side of the glass. It’s not a good time for Sabrina to lose a BFF (though probably never a good time for that) considering the list of enemies that are gunning for her. That being said, things have never been easy for Sabrina since coming to Rival Angels, despite the perception otherwise. Â Sun’s journey with Damage Inc should be eye opening and definitely expect to see more of her in the ring. Â Remember that Yvonne promised Sun a title match. 😉
Hey Coyote Lovely! I’m right there with you.
Wow T-M! That’s a really a great way to put it. The reason why this hurts so bad for Sabrina is because she does care so much for Sun. Â It’s sincere so that hurt and grief are as well. Â And judging by the end of this page, Sun is more than a little regretful as well.
Ken, once you pointed it out it just became an eyesore that I had to fix. And really, it was a pretty easy fix so that went a long way. Â That’s why I love getting feedback from you guys. Â It helps me in putting out the very best stuff I can do.
Drew, that’s a good comparison with the Radicalz. Â Their novelty was more that they jumped the WCW ship and were new to the WWE fans (but not wrestling fans) and at least at first, despite their protests, the Upstarts enjoyed being their own private little group. Â Your Mega-Swerve idea is very interesting. 😉
You are right, Svan, about this being about Sun and Sabrina rather than the Upstarts. Â Up until now, they were pretty happy with the status quo. Â Together, but not really a team, though we know that Sun obviously made a move to get out of that. Â And you’re right about the focus of the story being more than just wrestling. Â There’s plenty of TV shows that can give you just wrestling. Â Rival Angels is more than that, which is why we get the reasons for caring about these characters so much. Â And while Sabrina is the main protagonist, there is some room for some of the other characters. Â And thanks for the kind words for Lora and me. Â They’re appreciated. 🙂
well on the plus side. Sun’s critque about Sabrina needing to get more serious in the ring seemed to have worked out well on that end. ;P
Albone?
Â
help here? panel 7: is Sun sad? or what? I can’t seems to get Sun?
Jpiv, that’s definitely the optimistic way to look at things. XD
MGC, I was trying to convey ‘remorseful,’ with Sun’s look, with sadness mixed in.
sun should come to my house so that i can help her cheer up O:-)
Very generous offer, T-M. Â XD
