Chapter 8-Page-5-She’s Back
What’s different: Sabrina isn’t being jumped post-match.
What’s similar: Sabrina fighting bad odds.
Some big questions here like, how can Sabrina fit in a new Rival Angels landscape, what’s the status of her friendship with Sun and…what answer did she give Yoshi’s marriage proposal? (I should point that while Xtina is married, she doesn’t fight with any jewelry, something most of the wrestlers follow).
UPDATE CHANGE
The short version is that as of July, I’ll be updating twice a week, Wednesday and Friday.
The long version is…I just got laid off from the dayjob. I’ve been very lucky enough to be able to provide for my family as well as work on Rival Angels which, as much work as it is, has always been a labor of love. Moving forward in finding another job, I know that whatever job I get will require more from me, which is fine, but that means that Rival Angels has to take a hit but I think it’s a hit that is manageable. I still have more story to tell about Brooke, Krystin, Sun and Sabrina and it won’t be ending any time at all so thanks for your continued support!
And if your Rival Angels reading collection is lacking, feel free to pick up a book or two. 😉
Voting Incentive!
Can this last long? Vote to see what’s coming up on Wednesday!
Great action shot, boss!
Yes it is but it looks like she is leaning forward and will end up falling on her face.
Thanks! 🙂
Look! Up in the sky! It’s a Brina! Go Brina!
Sorry to hear about the layoff. I know whoever picks you up will be very lucky and wishes that you come out ahead on this, with english on the spin! Hugs!
Super Brina flying down to the ring! Woo hoo!
Remember a job is work and you are a hard worker so you’ll be back on your feet soon.
Thanks for the support.:)
Holy Schnike, Brina can fly!!!
glad to see I’m not the only one that saw flight
I decided, what the heck? XD We haven’t seen her ‘fly’ in a while.
I *KNEW* she must’ve cheated to steal that win off of me!
Sodding flying cheater…
One doesn’t have to cheat to get a win off you.
True, so true! Muahahahaaaa
Or there’s Brenda, who cheats and still can’t get a win off of me…
Phhht! How about you come down to the gym for a bit of spar and I’ll just remind you why I never have to cheat?
After all, Any sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic. And compared to your wrestling, I’m a wytch. Come on down and I’ll turn you into a Celtic knot LoL
“Phhht! How about you come down to the gym for a bit of spar and I’ll just remind you why I never have to cheat?”
Because once you’ve gone off your diet, it’s not technically cheating any more?
True. One can also sneak up and do the ol’ one-finger pin while I’m asleep.
I’m a very sound sleeper.
Apparently cheating against Callie involves actually wrestling skills.
Hence why I’ve never called you a cheater…
Wait til she gets going!
You will believe a face can fly.
She isn’t a face, more of a basket case. Jeepers if any of us had her luck we’d have given up by now.
I’m also sorry as heck you got laid off. Prayers with you.
I appreciate that. Thanks!
Sound the Brina alarm, she’s back! And she still can’t wrestle a lick!
You are right, I’m the only licker out there!
I should point that while Xtina is married, she doesn’t fight with any jewelry, something most of the wrestlers follow).
waaaattt!!
to whom?
is Carpenter is his husband surname?
She is married to Wrestler X
El Masquera
Her husband escorted her to the Rumble Awards. One of the readers referred to him as the butler or something, which was hilarious. XD
Stand back, its a sabrina-cane coming through *pose* Well she is wearing Sun’s colors.. that’s a good sign as to her intentions.. sabrina is a heart on her sleave type. I respect thehtheheck outa big show for wearing his wedding ring in matches (that black tape in his finger covers the band). Sabrina can’t wrestle? O_o.. I always got the she’s a bit of a wrestling prodigy vibe from her.. I mean she doesn’t seem like captain mic skills and tall athletic blonde isn’t an uncommon look..so all thats left is skills. Sorry about the job albone, sucks :(.
and she is wearing Brooke’s undies and Amanda’s….hmmm guess she can’t wear anything that belongs to Amanda.
Maybe wear Amanda’s necklace?
Thanks, Drew!
Aaannnnnddd she’s baaaaaaccckkk!!!
Sorry to hear about the lay-off. Had that happen to myself more than once and ain’t exactly safe from it right now. Best of luck with that.
to bad she didn’t have an axe and a wild eyed look
She IS back…!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
‘BRINA!! ‘BRINA!! ‘BRINA!! ‘BRINA!! ‘BRINA!!
NO WENDY!! I WILL NOT CALM DOWN!!
I!! AM!! SO!! HAPPY!!
XD
*****
So sorry to hear about the job, that totally sucks. Hugs for you! And I am totally sure you will find a better one. *nod* Don’t worry about pulling back on the RA Updates, we all understand, and twice a week remains twicely instalments of awesome.
It does.
I have sent you a pm with super important, world shattering news that hopefully will maybe improve your day.
XD
Fighting wrestlers from the sky (We see Sabrina can fly)
Fearless women who jump and slap
Women who mean just what they say
The brave women of the Rival Angels!
Sorry, that You lost your day job. 🙁
Still, nice enterance for Sabrina to come back to, but my question is HOW IN THE WORLD THAT SABRINA CAME BACK IN TIME TO HELP DESPITE THE TIME DIFFERENCE ? 🙁
Honestly, there were a few days inbetween Sun leaving Japan, Cocoa betraying Sabrina, and Yoshi proposing. It was quick but not Sun-quick.
A guy in a blue police box gave her a lift.
She is fresh off of fighting the Cyberwomen.
Wait, I like this explanation.
Good luck on the jobhunt, Albone! Whatever you do, don’t accept any jobs in Idaho. The job market here stinks, and the people are mildly psychotic.
Mildly? If it wasn’t for your cookies and hot springs, there’d be nothing to recommend Idaho.
(spoken as a Washingtonian, west side, of course LoL)
Thanks for the advice and support!
ah you can tell Brina’s spent time in japan-i feel the the background rushing away from me as she hovers in midair as we speak 😉
i also notice that a lot of wrestlers also wear black tape around their wedding rings too but no one tends to comment on it.
also if i were the Belles i’d call foul- where was the blaring of Brina’s theme music beforehand so the heels could ignore it until she actually came out from behind the curtain and only then notice why the crowd is suddenly cheering inexplicably?????
Sabrina’s surprised EVERYONE. Unless…she’s not a face anymore?
The thing about wedding jewelry is that woman’s bands are a little more intricate, and also, assuming they didn’t elope, Sabrina wouldn’t risk her engagement ring.
I wouldn’t say that Sabrina is fighting bad odds here. While she does have three opponents, she also has four probable allies starting to struggle to their feet.
Considering also Sun’s allies, time is not on the side of the Hell’s Bells right now.
Ain’t the numbers game here. It’s about Brina being pumped and fulla’ piss and vinegar.
Exactly. Just like one of my earliest trainers, last week
Sabrina’s got a lot going for her as she rushes the ring, despite the odds, but will it be enough?
Awesome splash, Alan. That’s really terrific. You should sell prints of this one, seriously.
Related: is this a new colorist? Cause… Wow!
I’m glad you liked the update so much! 🙂 Same colorist: me. XD
Kind of disappointed that while Sabrina has many chapters to herself, the other upstarts are forced to share the spotlight with Sabrina, as if they can’t have time to themselves.
Also, sorry about being laid off. My first full time job after post secondary I got laid off after 3.5 months.
Didn’t read the blog text until just now. Man, that sucks.
Thanks guys, I appreciate the support.
RA without ‘Brina is Back to the Future without Marty McFly.
Brought Back ‘Brina!
YAY!
*Happy Dance*
*Looks for a spritzer*
She can fly?!? She can fly!
[Insert Peter Pan music here]
Damn, no wonder that girl kicked so much butt in the previous season. And did all those high-flying acrobatic stunts. Chick’s got super powers.
Sabrina thinks she’s pretty super…most of the time. XD
Okay, if Brina throws her shirt into the crowd and backflips off the top turnbuckle… she’ll have learned everything I taught her about dynamic ring entrances.
I think you just want to see if she’s wearing her Hello Kitty or My Little Pony bra. XD
Nah, just how I do my ring entrance. Sprint down to the ring full speed, climb to the top turnbuckle, throw my shirt into the crowd so someone gets a souvineer, then backflip off the top and land on my feet
Sorry to hear about the job. Hopefully, you can get a new one soon.
I got to give you credit, though. Nice new outfit. I wonder who is getting Ultrakicked via “Angry Little Pony” shoes. It sure brings out the “Girl” in UltraGirl. Though, getting knocked out via those shoes might be grounds for expulsion from Hell’s Belle.
I know it, there will be much ridicule for getting Ultrakicked from MLP shoes!
Awesome panel :D. Sabrina looks untouchable here: she´ll give The Belles hell. Will The Belles make a stand or … http://youtu.be/K7ToNJHgp-w. (I don´t wanna be in their shoes ;-).
It’s hard to compete with MLP shoes.
I’m hoping her wearing sun’s colors means she’s joining damage inc…
Yvonne asked Sabrina to join Damage Inc before and as Yvonne noted, Sabrina didn’t say NO…
Sorry to hear about the job situation. Have you thought about maybe doing a Kickstarter? A lot of my favorite webcomic artists are making some coin off of that, and it’d motivate my lazy butt to pony up for some RA compilations!
Booyah! Called it! 🙂 It looks like Super Saiyan Sabrina has arrived! Like she’s flying towards the ring. Is her power level over 9000, Al?
Sabrina back to Rival Angels, it like she’s flying. In last page she was wearing a boot with Twilight Sparkle on it, which is one of my favorite ponies, well I’m kind of a brony.
Sabrina-Twilight Sparkle
Brooke-Rarity
Krystin-Applejack
Sun-Rainbow Dash
XD
This is the equivalent of Stone Cold Steve Austin coming down the ramp after the glass shatters!
This song came to mind. :3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox-A7OkuTHk
