A-ho! I guess it was Sun all along! XD
Welp, I’m writing this last Thursday as I’m probably in Baltimore or on the way home from the Baltimore Comic Con. In either case, just like Mid Ohio Con, I’m sure I had a great time with readers and friends and success selling the book to the masses. I’ll be sure to have a proper con report up soon.
Back to the update, I hope it gets across that panel 2 is silent (except for the TV going on) because everyone wants to see what’s going to happen between Sabrina and Sun. Who would’ve thought that Brooke would be the one to speak up first though she got shut down pretty quick. Seems Krystin and Amanda are going to let these two have some space. What do you all think is going to happen next? Will they patch things up or do we get World War 3?
EDIT:
I’m back from Baltimore! Â It looks like I’m psychic because I DID have a great time and success bringing the book to the masses. 😀 Â And I will have a proper con report up soon. I should’ve had this in the original posting but in case you’re wondering, ‘Black and Blue’ are the tag team champions of Rival Angels and the Catgirls happen to be the #1 contenders for the belts. Hence, the reason the Catgirls are gunning for the champs. Â Feel free to begin any speculation on the tag champs. 😉
EDIT EDIT:
Baltimore Comic con Report is up: Go check it out!
I’m personally voting they begin the long road to recovery. Bleeding heart moment, I know, but those two, they’re like peanut butter and jelly. Ham and cheese. Tom and Jerry. One without the other may be fine on it’s own, but it’s when they’re together that makes them what they are.
I won’t see WW3.. ‘Ultragirl’ Sabrina Mancini and ‘Shinobi’ ‘Lil Dragon’ Sun Wong here.. “Another Thanks to Albone!”
Â
I really don’t want to see them fight..
Â
I much fan for the Catgirls.. so I kinda felt their story, overpowered Sabrina and Sun tension..
YEAH!! Catgirls VS ‘Black and Blue’? ah? Black and Blue are they tag teams? (scratch me head)
I gonna vote for the Catgirls to win..
I am so bummed I missed the Baltimore Comic Con I was supposed to have Sunday off and they switched stuff on me and I had to work. 🙁 Lame!!!! I have to agree I think its time for the two to patch things up. Or at least attempt to, if they are true friends they will work through the argument and come out better for it.
Lil’ Ninja is back and her tongue is as cutting as ever… Brooke should have known she’s no match for her on that point 😉
I’d be glad to see Sabrina and Sun get along better. Their duo is among the best in the ring ^_^
Awwwkkkwarrrrddd.
I guess inside both of Sabrina’s & Sun’s heart, they still want to be friend with each other. Of course, it’s not gonna happen anytime soon. Sabrina is still hurt because Sun deceived her, and Sun of course after finally able to join Damage Inc won’t let her feelings toward Sabrina ruin her chance of making good impression toward her new stablemates.
Hopefully Sun just there to say that she don’t have any bad feeling toward Sabrina, just that now they are in their own separate ways. That’s it.
well this Brina/Sun encounter seems to be off to a slightly better start than the last. uncomfortable “heys” is a bit better than “why are you sneaking out the back door?!?! No why are YOU coming IN through the back door!?!” I think Brooke’s still trying to think of a comeback though. did like Sun’s attempt at normalacy despite everything with the trademarked to be “ninja’d” greeting.
nice to hear about the tag belts, is this the first we’ve actaully heard about them? i can’t remember.
i’m guessing that might be a “coming to clean out her locker” (conviently next to brina’s) deal for Sun as she moves over to her new digs to keep some distance between Sun and Brina and keep whatever recovery of their friendship on a slow boil for a bit instead of reminding each other every time they come to change. amazing how everyone but Amanda, Brooke and Krystin seemed to have magically vacated the lockerroom between panels 2 and 5 (unless that’s just because of the angle of panel 5) eh?
‘Black and Blue’ hmm?
I know the catgirls are undefeated in tag matches

so this mean that ‘Black and Blue’ came earlier than the Catgirls? I wonder if we can see a preview of them? maybe bit vital stats and finisher moves? Â
Wow! Caatgirls in an upcoming match. Can’t wait!
I’m glad to hear that Baltimore was a success! I’m eagerly looking forward to the con report, to see how everything went with the Harvey’s and what kind of awesome stuff that con has to offer. Think it’s worth attending every year?
And don’t you talk to my Brooke that way, Sun! 😛
I’m guessing that Sun’s just there to get her stuff out of the locker…Â Will they talk about their feelings? Will a fist fight occur? Can they truly bury the hatchet or will one of them get that last twist of the preverbial knife… Tune in next episode thrill seekers!
Btw, just to add you’ve really done a great job on Sun since you first started and that goes for all of your characters, getting that stride as an artist, I can definitely tell with Sun especially how you’ve cleaned up her lines and even cut her hair as well. Just a solid job over all and the shadowing too…
But enough about that ‘girly’ stuff 😉 We want to see action! heh

Tarrasque, I think I agree with you about Sabrina and Sun. 🙂 Â Maybe on Wednesday?
MGC, I know you’ve always been a fan of the peripheral characters in Rival Angels and it was my way of including them in the mix while not deviating from the main story plot of Sabrina and Sun. Â If possible, I’ll try to show Black And Blue in the coming weeks. Â I wonder if they’ll look and act like you’d imagine. 😉
Aw, RAWF, that would’ve been great if you would’ve showed up! Â Another one for Sun and Sabrina to make up? Â Wednesday is a-coming and we’ll see how good of friends they are.
Hehe, Jul, I’m glad you liked Sun’s biting tongue. Â She’s so much fun to write. You think that Sun and Sabrina are the best duo, eh? Hmmmm……..
Very nice read on the situation, PS2kid. Â I can’t comment to say that you’re right or not, but that you should find Wednesday interesting. I can say that you’re pretty close with their current feelings and attitudes.
jpiv, this IS the first time we’ve heard about the tag team championships. Â It seemed like a nice time to slide in this match for the PPV. Â Expect a full locker room on the following pages. Â It’s just the angle and no one wants to miss what happens next between Sabrina and Sun. Â Yeah, so far it’s off to a much better start than last time, though its hard to say how its going to end.
Jim, look for the Catgirls vs Black And Blue at the PPV.
Trevor, the Harvey’s were fun though a tad cliquey, unless I missed my mark. Â One of the speakers felt the need to include an infomercial into his speech so that was lame. Â Lora had much love from the audience. Â Baltimore Con was fun because of all of the great people I got to see and meet (including sharing a cab with Scott Sava *mark out moment*) and the exposure of it was fun. Â I would definitely do Baltimore again.
Hey Kurt! Â You have the best teaser writing abilities! Â Thank you for the comments on the art. Â In fact, that picture of Sun in panel 1 is my favorite image of her that I have every done. Â Girly talk is alright. XD
I got the Baltimore comic con report up. Â Go check it out!
Well, Boney, here’s hoping you get them working on it sooner, rather than later. Too many “almost friends again” moments and you kill it. Too few and you completely validate a particular character’s trusting nature. Their postures in panel five suggest neither wants to attack the other.
I have to agree with Tarrasque here… you can only tease something so often before we assume it’s the boy crying wolf again. Ideally, Sun is prepared to talk with Sabrina like an adult this time, and vice-versa. Their previous encounter wouldn’t have been out of place during third grade recess, IMO.
Tarrasque, I think you’re right about them not wanting to fight each other any more. Â As far as them making up, Wednesday should be a fun update. Â I got a few readers tell me in person at the Baltimore Comic Con that the want to see Sabrina and Sun back together again so you’re in good company. Â This is actually the hang up with *only* posting three times a week and things don’t move as fast as we’d like. Â Though, I think its fair to mention that even if they’re able to get past their differences, that doesn’t mean we’ll necessarily see the return of the BFF’s. Â Just sayin.
Adon, the first encounter was fun! Â XD Â Well, not for them but friends fight each other so hard because they do care about each other. Â Expect a more grown up exchange between the two, though that doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll go well. O_o
Lemme know if you need a protege reporter interviewing the wrestlers between matches 🙂
Kurt, I think backstage interviewer, Nick Lowry could use some help. Â These girls can be quite a handful at times. Â Ahahahaha, double entendre.
shouldn’t brook be in the heals lockerroom to
I think that’s a more fair question of Amanda than Brooke. Â No one’s asked Brooke to leave yet and she likes the company. 😛
Well, that’s obviously the prettiest picture of Sun you’ve ever done. Kudos.
Thanks Darkmark! Â I humbly agree. 😀
