Chapter 4-Page-13-Unexpected Landing
Aug17
Sabrina was in an earlier jam this week and she got out of it, mostly okay. No big to do it again, right? Right?

The ref and Black Widow seem to be discussing something. Vote to see what’s coming up on Monday!
And yet again, we see how flawed the strategy of blindly hurling one’s body at an opponent truly is.
There’s not any strategy that can cover every contingency. Sabrina just happens to favor high-offense to a middle or defensive one. Of course, how long you can keep said offense up, over time is another matter.
No one can ever settle for a countout.
Especially these damn faces! lol
NOOOOOOO!
Wiggle free ‘Brina! WIGGLE!
what’s with you Samantha.. Wiggle Wiggle wiggle..
are you dancing ‘Sexy and I know it’
Wiggle Wiggle..
FACE PALM!
She’s wiggling with all of her might! XD
I’ve run ropes… they don’t go back that far… lol
Did you run fast enough to make the crowd appear to distort into horizontal lines?
(C’mon Mo, allow Al some artistic licence) 😉
Callie said something I can agree with, without reservation.
Weird. I don’t hear trumpets…
This is what happens when hell freezes over. And it must have because all that heat is here!
Sabrina gets to add 1D6 to her attack for using the ropes. 😉
First thing..
good on Sabrina.. why is she Ultragirl..
second
she never learn.. lolz
last panel..
Shamroxx is kinda happy.. look on her face
Oh good I thought I was the only one who thought that Shamroxx looked impressed with that one.
You can hate Black Widow if you want but really after someone does a rather needless showy flip like that only to catch them you have to show some respect for that, even if they aren’t the most respectable.
I respect Blackwidow..
🙂
Shamrox is Sabrina’s friend and has her back. You’ll see.
yeah, Sabrina never met a chance she didn’t take.
Oh wow… don’t try this at home, kids!
Sabrina had a good offense going, but now she’s caught. How will she get out and regain the offensive? The VI looks promising!
And now it’s my turn to agree with you, (albeit it looks promising because I’ve a match with Sabrina in the next story, and I’m choosing to interpret the VI as the ref admonishing Bitsy for doing something so heinous that she’ll never be the same…)
snickers. good luck!
How indeed? Bitsy has her dead to rights…or does she?
Well, that first bit looks like something out of a Warner Bros. cartoon!
XD
Okay – Panel three is made of awesome. Panel four is made of DOOOOM.
This does not bode well for our heroine.
Thanks! They were fun to draw (and color)! Yeah, the bode-ness is not with Sabrina.
YES! Crush her Widow!
She just might turn the tables and squash someone else (instead of spiders getting squashed, you see?). XD
Yes Black Widow is strong but I’m still amazed she managed to turn around and plant her feet before Sabrina landed on her.
Quick hint Sabrina bite her in the thigh before she slams you.
Snowy, that is VERY good strategy!
At the angle she in, I don’t think Sabrina can make it out of this one safely. 🙁
On top of that, her breath is probably gone considering the hard landing she took. Well, mostly hard…some bits….ah, you know. 😛
I alwase hated getting caught. Hand in the cookie jar. Under the bleachers with her bf. Getting out of the trunk at the drive in. Flying high, on final approach, and getting a wave off too late.
Is it me, or is BW looking a little liter here? I like it actually 🙂
Interesting smorgasbord of analogies, there…
What analogy? And where’s the smorgasbord? I hope it’snot pot luck! Last time the catgirls brought Friskies with a sardine sauce
She might look leaner in panel 4 but I was trying for a different angle there. Getting caught sucks!
She must have an adamantium skeleton
The rest of her is ALL woman.
Also, I have to understand… why does Sabrina need to bounce the ropes to THEN mount the turnbuckle before launching? Couldnt she just have suicide dived? Less time, lower attack and a lot less chance of getting snagged out of the air.
Sabrina’s showy. It might not make sense from a startegic POV, but she’s also trying to impress the crowd, which is a fine line to manage.
Sin Cara tactics didn’t pay off this time, I would have just waited for her to get back in the ring. This might cost Sabrina long term…I surely hope not.
Win or lose, you can bet that this will be a big learning experience for Sabrina.
High risk offers high reward. That and I think Sabrina likes to hear to crowd go ‘ooooh’.
Damn B-Dub and her spidey senses. It would have worked otherwise.
You nailed it, Brian! Sabrina likes the attention. She’s hoping that trading in showboaty pauses during the match in favor of some high-flying antics would pay off. If you think about it, the crowd tipped her hand and they probably ooh’ed and ahh’d…even a little bit would’ve alerted Black Widow. She’s cagey like that. XD
Should have went for the dropkick or the Tope con Hilo, maybe even a personal favorite of mine, the Springboard 450 Plancha. You don’t go perpendicular to a bigger, stronger opponent, or stuff like this happens
I’d have gone with the classic dropkick, personally, but I bow to your greater expertise when it comes to high-flying maneuvers.
Whichever alternate maneuver would’ve been best, the cross body seems extremely inefficient and the most ideally set up for counters possible. Falling from that height should’ve prevented it, but Black Widow’s strength and durability is just unreal.
Okay I’m a little impressed with Black Widow there…but um…am I the only on who thinks the groups faces look kind of funny? Haha Ian’s and Cocoa look the most misplaced to me X) Ian’s like huh? While Cocoa’s like “What the fu…..”
Puzzled, stunned, and impressed are all valid reactions when someone snatches another person out of the air like that, especially without apparent effort. Black Widow’s some kind of monster.
Sabrina should have gone for the Swan Dive Finger Poke of DOOM. Nothing can stop the FPD.
Al you know what When Bree went to the ropes and took flight the theme ot he last star fighter popped inmy head granted i just got doen watching to day but still it was on of those epic moments then I felt sad that she was caught tho IM pretty she even if she braced her self the wieght of bree and the speed at which she was falling Bree would have toppled widows ass over or at ther very leasts srained her back pretty good
