The chronology pages describe the comics to assist scholars in finding the page on which something occurred. For each page of the comic, the chronology pages identify the characters that appear, actions taken, significant quotes, and other things of interest. Page numbers from the website are zero padded to three digits and in parentheses, for example: (005), (061), (113). Page numbers from print volumes are neither, for example: 5, 61, 113. Section titles are from the canon unless otherwise noted.
For historical reasons, volumes 1 (I) through 13 (XIII) are usually identified with Roman numerals on the Girl Genius chronology pages and elsewhere in the wiki. From volume 14 on, the story entered a new "act" and the volume numbers started over, in Arabic numbers, proceeded by a "2-". For example, overall volume 15 is given as volume 2-2 on chronology pages.
For a partial timeline of the events in the comic, see Internal Chronology.
For more information on the double-page spreads in this volume, see double-page spreads in Girl Genius.
For more information on special pages in this volume, see the list of special pages, notes, and annotations.

Colette recounts how the Library and certain other Deep Realms have agreed to join forces with Paris against the Other. She also says she will help everyone with their preparations for their journey away from Paris. Agatha is upset; she has no idea where to go or where Prende's Lantern is now. Suddenly, she runs into Ardsley Wooster, who offers to help…Agatha go to England. | |||
Colette: "The Librarians—and the leaders of the various Deep Realms who were attacked by the "Other"—have agreed to work with us. I hope that you, too, will continue to aid in this fight—from the outside. Lady Heterodyne—thanks to your monograph and the samples you have provided—we have already begun a project to produce our own wasp eaters." Agatha's Wasp eater: "Skronk!" Colette: "The 'Other' tried to take Paris, and so far, she has failed—but I do not doubt that she will try again, and that her ultimate goal reaches far beyond the walls of Paris. We will all have much to do. Now, go. Prepare for your departure. I will see to it that you have whatever you need to continue your journey." Dimo: "Well, dot vos fun!" Maxim: "Yeah! Fancy!"

2017-10-13 (Friday) ✣ Vol.2-5 p. Ivo Sharktooth PJ: Page 028 Forum:2017-10-13 (Friday) |
Ivo Sharktooth, Van, Killer/Watchman | ||
Ivo confronts someone invisible to the reader and Van, but not to him. He is attacked and responds violently, literally disarming (or at least dis-handing) the attacker. Ivo is injured during the fight, but deals much worse damage to his attacker, finally ripping devices off the sides of his opponent's head, causing him to become visible. Due to his injuries, the man collapses to the ground, disabled and possibly dying. | |||
Van: "Who the hell is that?!" Ivo: "Heh—dis iz a guy vot makes 'accidents' happen." | |||
|
It seems clear that the man who attacked Ivo was a Mechanicsburg Watchman. The devices ripped off the attacker's head seem to be the ones that cover or replace the ears ✣ of the Watchmen.

Members of the Blood Circle Families, Hadrian Greenclaw, Van, Ivo Sharktooth | ||
Hadrian Greenclaw seems to be fully in charge during a meeting of the Blood Circle. Nearly all of the other members are panicking. They don't know who has been killing members of the Blood Circle or who will be killed next. They want the Sins to come to their rescue, but fear that the Sins might attack them instead. Hadian insists that the Sins are completely and permanently out of commission. He is the picture of smug sang froid, reassuring the others (or trying to); at least, until Van and Ivo Sharktooth show up. | |||
Hadrian: "Ladies and gentlemen. I think it's obvious by now that the Sins are a relic of the past. Clearly, we can no longer rely on an obsolete set of ancient clanks to oversee our affairs—nor should we." | |||

Hippocrates Brunel | ||
Brunel speaks about the submergence of England while standing in front of an enormous porthole through which can be seen a submarine panorama, most of which is occupied by an undersea city, presumably Londinium. There are a multitude of transparent, multicolored domes of all shapes and sizes, connected by tubes or covered corridors. Through some of them can be seen buildings, and, at least in one case, a tall tree. Two huge statues, of scantily clad or nude women, stand guard over the main entrance tube to the city, raising swords to form an archway over the corridor. A Union Jack pennant hangs above the point where this passageway connects to the dome. A number of submarines move about, above the city. | |||
"The Great Submergence has set us a challenge! A challenge which has driven us to become one of the mightiest nations on earth!" | |||

Brunel continues to speak and more of submerged England is revealed. Many more domes can be seen, as well as more statuary, more submarines, a school of large fish, and a rather grumpy-looking whale with an ad for Guinness on its side. Rising high behind the rest is an enormous dome containing a large number and variety of buildings. | |||

The leader of the Smoke Knights also agrees that something is wrong with the approaching airship. Hawkins decides to use the guns, but is told they have been spiked by the Knights. She and her crew are not at all happy about this. Both the Knights and the non-pirates prove to be prone to over-excitability. Tarvek makes a inspirational speech rallying the troops, until they see that their new opponents are a pack of anthropoid wolf-like creatures. (Perhaps dog-like would be a more apt description, given their fondness for treats.) | |||

Tarvek works with burners, beakers, and chemicals, brewing a formula to use against the hounds[21]; the substance goes through many changes of color and form. The Captain urges him to hurry; her crew are dying! A hound appears in the galley door and the Captain fends him off, while Tarvek finishes his formula; the end product is many small spherical purple pellets. He tests one by tossing in the face of the attacking hound. The ball explodes into a small cloud of dust or vapor, and the hound reacts with alarm. | |||

Bang, Jaron, Tarvek, Gil | ||
Bang fights Jaron and more than holds her own against him. During the conflict she inflicts several serious injuries on her opponent, while escaping further damage herself. Throughout the clash, she keeps up a continuous stream of banter, annoying Jaron no end and perhaps even distracting him enough to aid Bang during their battle. | |||
Jaron: "Tch—you know what your problem is?" Bang: "Ooh! I bet I know this one!" [Bang stabs Jaron.] Jaron (shouted): "Arrgh!" Bang: "I bet you're going to say I talk too much! Everybody says that! Now, I don't think I talk that much," [She stabs Jaron again.] Jaron(shouted): "Ak!" Bang: "so I thought, maybe I'm just annoying!" Tarvek: "I had no idea she was capable of such self-awareness." Gil: "Wait for it…" Bang: "—But that's just crazy! I mean, it's so obviously untrue! I think people just get touchy when they're losing. —But hey, let's open this up for discussion! What do you think?" Jaron (shouted): "Shut up!" Bang: "There, see? That's exactly what I mean!" | |||

Kaja: "The new Kickstarter Backer contact form seems to be working well, and a good thing too, because I have to launch yet another Kickstarter campaign sometime this week. Of course, that means I needed Phil and Cheyenne working on art for the campaign...which means that today we get a cute picture, rather than story. I'm really sorry about that! The good news is that I'll have the medal design off to the pin maker sometime tonight, and maybe they'll get done a bit sooner this time. (The medals can take a while, sometimes Phil's art is hard to translate to sculpted form.)" | |||

Agatha, Zeetha, Lord Womble | ||
Agatha and Zeetha are in an enormous, palatial room, which isn't surprising, since it is in Queen Albia's palace. Agatha frets about Gil and Tarvek. Zeetha tries to reassure her and gives her a lesson on dealing with Queens. A person with the head of a unicorn appears and asks them to follow him. | |||
Zeetha: "But listen to me—this is a show of power. You're being tested. You are in another Queen's land—and you come and go at Her word. This is a law among queens. Always remember—you do not rule here. The Heterodynes of the past had a lot of trouble accepting that reality…" Agatha: "Well, I am hardly one of the 'Heterodynes of the past.'" Womble: "—And the lack of screaming, ranting, and egregious violence has been noted. Princess, Lady Heterodyne, if you will follow me—" | |||

Zeetha and Agatha are escorted to an colossal, transparent, undersea dome and presented to Queen Albia by Lord Womble. The dome contains a huge, elaborate, lovely formal garden. As Albia welcomes them, Zeetha and Agatha gape with astonishment. Not only is the garden inhabited by many strange beings, and full of floating, glowing particles, but the Queen is a giantess, dressed in sensible gardening clothes, gloves, and an apron, pruning the top of a tall fir tree with scissor-like secateurs. The only signs of royalty in her appearance are her tiara featuring an emblem of the British flag, and her halo of stars, apparently hovering unsupported around her head. | |||
Albia: "Ladies. Welcome to my garden." | |||

Albia, Guy in Big Hat, Fairy-like woman, Zeetha | ||
Albia greets Zeetha and walks towards her, shrinking rapidly until she is only slightly more than normal size. She speaks of Skifander and offers Zeetha her hand. Zeetha grasps it then immediately lets go; it's too hot! Albia explains that overly rapid compression is the cause of the heat, to Zeetha's puzzlement. Albia then asks about Queen Luheia. | |||
Albia: "Zeetha of Skifander, you may approach. It has been far too long since I have had word of your people." Zeetha: "You…you know of Skifander?" Albia: "Oh, yes—but is was so long ago, before the mirrors went dark. I confess, I had believed your land lost forever." Zeetha: "The mirrors—I…" Albia: "Oh, yes, we will have much to talk about, my dear. You are most welcome here." | |||

Zeetha informs Albia that Luheia died so long ago she has passed into legend. Albia's gardening getup morphs into into black mourning clothes. She is taken aback to learn that Skifander's Queen is no longer immortal. As she speaks, Albia's appearance shifts again; she now possesses the green hair and scanty attire of a Queen of Skifander. Albia admits that she doesn't know how to find Zeetha's home; she spoke to Luheia through a "magic mirror" which no longer works. She reacts with shock when Zeetha tells her that Agatha took two and a half years to pass through a similar device. | |||
Zeetha: "L-luheia? Queen Luheia—uh, she died. To save Skifander from the Grey Witch—" Albia: "Oh—poor Luheia, dead… We are sorry to hear that…though we had guessed as much. A grey witch, you say?" Zeetha: "I…I think that was her legend. There've been so many queens since then, and I'm—" Albia: "'So many—' You mean to say that Skifander is no longer ruled by an eternal God Queen?" | |||

Albia, Zeetha, Fairy-like woman, Agatha | ||
Albia dismisses Zeetha and bids Agatha approach. She gazes intently in into Agatha's eyes, apparently discerning Agatha's super Sparky state ✣ quite a while ago in Castle Heterodyne. Albia's hair and clothing change to resemble Agatha's appearance at the time. After reacting with glee because Agatha survived, Albia grows grim and states that Agatha is causing problems, including the fact that Gil has invaded Britain. | |||
Albia: "Now then. Lady Heterodyne—you may approach. Let us look at you. Oho! Yes, we thought so! We can always tell." Agatha: "Your Majesty?" Albia: "You are one who has peeped into the infinite!" Agatha: "Ah—Your Majesty, I think—I mean, that was only temporary… And I almost exploded." Albia: "But you didn't! Well done for your first time!" Agatha: "Ah—'first time?'" Albia: "Later, you'll only have to worry about exploding other people!" | |||
Lord Womble, Your Young Baron (Gil) | Albia's appearance in panels 5, 7, 8, and 9 and the flashback in panel 6 refer back to a short passage in Agatha Heterodyne and the Guardian Muse starting on page 053 (web), ✣ but Agatha's eyes don't turn gold in this scene until the following page, ✣ in panel 2 of which Higgs comments: "Remember old Igneous? Just before he exploded?" |

A city or village scene is shown, consisting of almost nothing but numerous narrow towers, each topped by a single small room with a single window with a shutter. Most of these are open, with a great variety of strange beings visible through them, going about their daily lives. A plank and rope bridge spans the front of the scene, being traversed by a humanoid creature with a head a bit reminiscent of an iguana, holding a hiking staff and wearing a backpack. | |||

Unfortunately, today I have a cold, and so slept most of the day and didn't finish the thing I wanted to show you tonight. SO INSTEAD...I have dug up one of Phil's VERY OLD drawings...because I think it's fun to see what his work looked like all those years ago. Phil says: "This was the first thing I did when I moved to Chicago for college. WindyCon 1 was coming up, and I thought it would be nice to have something to sell. WindyCon1 was my first regional convention. It was an excellent convention, I went there, and the next year, I was on the con staff. As far as I know, the convention is still going. You and I have been guests there." (I'm the "you" he's talking about, by the way, I'm just typing what he says to me from the other room. He's still drawing Works cards. Yes, indeed, I have been a guest at Windycon.)" | |||

Phil, Vulture, The Winslow | ||
Phil is sick in bed, cowering under his covers with little more than his eyes and the top of his head visible; he is staring with great apprehension at a large vulture perched on top of his blanket. The vulture is peering closely and speculatively back at Phil. | |||
Note at bottom of page image (part of the image), presumably from Kaja: "Phil is sick and feeling a mite melodramatic. We will resume story shortly. Thanks for understanding!" | |||
|
The Winslow is peeking out from behind Phil's pillow. |

- ↑ The text in the drawing isn't clear, so this transcription may be wrong.
- ↑ 9.0 9.1 Part of this transcription is deduced from other information given on this page or previously in the comic.
- ↑ 10.0 10.1 10.2 10.3 10.4 10.5 10.6
In the small print at the bottom of this page, which is part of the comic page image, it is identified as "GG Second Journey Vol. 5 Page 00n" (where 'n' stands in for the page number), instead of "Ivo Sharktooth PJ: Page 00n", as the other pages of the "Ivo Sharktooth, P.J." story are.This was an error and was fixed as of mid-September 2017. - ↑ Her name isn't given until the next page.
- ↑ 12.0 12.1 The tavern patrons shown on this page all seem to be soldiers. At least one of them, judging by the insignia on his uniform, is a solder for the Wulfenbach Empire.
- ↑ His name is given on the next page. ✣
- ↑ Only Greenclaw's claw is shown in the final panel for this page. The character's complete appearance and name are revealed on the next page. ✣
- ↑ Narrating, starting in panel 1.
- ↑ This seems to be an error. This should be page 029; the previous page number was 028.
- ↑ This seems to be an error. This should be page number 030. The previous page was number 030, but that was also an error; it should have been 029.
- ↑ The page numbers are back on track, after being incorrect for two pages. The page two pages before this one is numbered 030 when it should have been 029, and the previous page was numbered 001 when it should have been 030.
- ↑ The names of these two Jägermonsters are revealed on a previous page. ✣
- ↑ This is different than the previous spelling, ✣ Wilkinson.
- ↑ 21.0 21.1 21.2 21.3 The Knights of the Hunts are referred to as "dogs" and "hounds" by the other characters while in their lupine form. This is not only shorter than calling them by their full title, but helps distinguish them from the Smoke Knights. This convention has been used in the "Actions" section here.
- ↑ "Getting all chummy with Prince Squealy", Act 1, volume 12, page 058 (web), panel 5 ✣ ; "Prince Squealy got himself poisoned…", Act 2, volume 3, page 043 (web), panel 3. ✣
- ↑ "I'd know that girlish scream anywhere! It's Prince 'How Dare You!'", Act 1, volume 12, page 047 (web), panel 3. ✣
- ↑ 24.0 24.1 AN abbreviates "Absolute Nonsense by Kaja when she's left at home alone…"
- ↑ cf Sergeant Nak
- ↑ This is almost certainly an error. This page should be numbered 058; the previous page was 057.
- ↑ this is spelled with a slash which is problematic; of course we have been calling this "Lunevka"
- ↑ Probably. The convention in these chronologies is to list the characters from the first panel in which characters appear or are heard speaking in the order in which they speak, and then list any other characters in that panel, from top to bottom and right to left, listing the remaining characters, if any, from the remaining panels following the same convention; considering each panel in the order they are intended to be read. In cases such as today's page, in which the characters can be heard but not seen in the first panel, it can be uncertain who is speaking and, therefore, in which order the characters should be listed.
- ↑ This character is named later in the story. ✣
- ↑ This character's name isn't revealed until later in the story. ✣
- ↑ 31.0 31.1 This character isn't named until the next page. ✣
- ↑ This character appeared before, ✣ but isn't named until the next page. ✣
- ↑ The mounted monster head is a reference to the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It is the head of the Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh!
- ↑ There are also references to the short story "The Crown of the Sleeping King". (The article contains a link to this story on the web.) The shield was used to open a hidden door when the proper buttons were pressed forming the shape of the constellation Draco (for Arthur Pendragon). The suit of armor is one of the guardians that came to life to prevent its removal, and the crown is self explanatory.
- ↑ A reference is also made to the Fiji mermaid, a legendary bit of fakery in the real world that was put on display by none other than P. T. Barnum in his American Museum in 1842. There have been many imitations that have been staples of sideshows for decades following the exhibition of the original, which was apparently destroyed in a fire.
- ↑ Superstring theories generally posit 10 dimensions, while the generalization M-theory uses 11.
- ↑ Thanks, Bosda Di'Chi!
- ↑ Thanks, Geoduck42!
- ↑ He is not shown on this page but continues his speech on the next one. ✣
- ↑ This seems to be an incorrectly colored version of Ariadne Steelgarter. Her face and what can be seen of her outfit and ornaments look identical to the last time she was seen. ✣
- ↑ 41.0 41.1 All you can see of this person (if it is a person; after all, this is Girl Genius) is an eye through a small porthole.
