Ask not what your wiki can do for you, ask what you can do for your wiki.


Oh snap I hate the buildup!! We might indeed have to wait until the last page of this volume for a resolution. Dperra.sr (talk) 04:04, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, these pages are always awesome on re-read but super-painful on the 3/week schedule. MTBinDurham (talk) 18:29, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Nice - looks like we're going to find out PDQ what has everyone aghast! Mayhap the Hideous Extradimensional Being is treating The Baron as an hors d'oeuvre before moving in on Mechanicsburg with fork & napkin in hand? Tstockma (talk) 04:39, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

And because the power is failing, they need to move quickly instead of leaving everything frozen until they can get reinforcements. Oh the drama! DLcygnet (talk) 15:13, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
I'll note that Gil said, "Father, what did you DO?" implying that whatever's shocked him was something Klaus himself did. MTBinDurham (talk) 18:29, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
I think Gil's comment implies that Klaus did the same thing to the Black Squad team trying to extract Klaus that Gil did to the team that attacked him. Dperra.sr (talk) 18:50, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
I have a hard time seeing that surprise everyone that much. Again, Zog is stunned, and Zog wasn't stunned by discovering the chrono-kaiju. Kind of starting to think it's something seriously dramatic like Klaus's detached arm holding the time stop device and Bohrlaikha holding that arm. But even that's not dramatic enough, I think.

Maybe he and General Gkika are snogging. -Geoduck42 (talk)

I expect Klaus isn't there. Which means he once again avoided a change to explain everything . Argadi (talk) 17:56, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

But Dal and Gil were expecting that, and they're just as shocked as everyone else. MTBinDurham (talk) 18:29, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

Just to over-comment completely, I'll repeat something I said on Patreon: What I'm noticing on a second day's re-read is that Zog, who was utterly unsurprised to see the town trapped in a time stop, a gigantic interdimensional beast hoving down on Mechanicsburg, and Agatha holding an ancient relic from the lost Queens, is now freaked out.

Calling it now: the thing that is amazing them all (remember, they do NOT have heavier-than-air flight) is gonna be a Peanuts crossover and they'll all be looking at the Red Baron's (Snoopy's) doghouse flying majestically all over Mechanisburg. No less than that would suffice for THAT much build-up.AuthYY (talk) 11:30, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

This is brilliant except for one problem: Snoopy is the WWI Flying Ace, his enemy is the Red Baron. WAIT! The Red Baron! He was German! He flew! He was brilliant! SNOOPY'S ADVERSARY HAS BEEN KLAUS ALL ALONG! MY GOD IT'S FULL OF STARS!!! MTBinDurham (talk) 12:25, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
Corrected WWII to WWI, Snoopy and the Red Baron is a WWI Legend. Also, there is heavier than air flight in the GG universe. See: https://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20030627
The name of Manfred "The Red Baron" von Richthofen sounds interestingly similar to that of Hristo Tiktoffen... Mskala (talk) 14:15, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
sneaky gate open, go and check if it there's any peanuts reference there :-) (edited with inocuous reference because accidentally included a reference to what IS in the page) AuthYY (talk) 01:54, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

When we last left Klaus, he had a hideous extra-dimensional being reaching for him. Klaus with his 3 brains was looking straight up at it. It's possible that Klaus has by now found a way to steal the creature's energy for himself and ascended. Of course, if that happens, how does the team stop him from snapping his fingers and vaporizing Agatha. No time for chit chat! But nobody else can use the Lantern either...
