Hm, the Sisters of ‘Mercy’ seem exceptionally well trained in combat for nuns…perhaps they’re the remnants of a Vatican black ops group? Or they were preparing to protect the vessel of the Second Coming?
I always wanted to write a series of books about a nun who solves crimes. All the titles were going to be bad puns: “Nun Shall Pass”, “Nun of that please, we’re Catholic”, “Utter Nun-sense”; you get the idea.
I guess “Nun-chucks” works too!
lol i see the Michael Jackson resemblance now lol … and as for the Pocahontas thing … didnt remember it til about 3 minutes after i read that comment but yea i totally remember that scene near the end lol … so long ago though now lol … but yeah this page is awesome cant wait for more keep up the good work …
I got the Pocahontas scene, too, before I read the comments. I’m pretty sure there’s a dialogue overlap as well as the whole “racing the conflict” aspect .
Well, vague overlap. Pocahontas says “Please don’t let it be too late!” The resemblance really comes from the rhythm, because it’s the same number of words and syllables with the same stress pattern.
They’re not nunjas, they’re just nuns. Nuns are the female pendant to monks and everyone knows, how well trained monks are in material arts. So are nuns, but in addition to that, they have awesomness.
any of you ever see that episode of the Simpsons where Homer becomes a coach? Watch the part where a statue of the Virgin Mary comes alive, and tell me you aren’t reminded of this.
@Bree-That’s Lady Oscar from Rose of Versailles going upside Catherine’s head xD.
This strip reminds me of a conversation a friend of mine over on Gaia was having with one of her guildmates about nuns are God’s ninjas.She actually made a banner too .I’ll post it if anyone wants to see it.
Awesome panel! But Yamino, when are we going to see Claire’s baby bump?? I can’t wait any longer!!! I’m pretty sure the Savior will be a SHE and she’ll be as hot as Gabrielle with kickass powers
I just want to know where they were stashing these weapons. Do they carry them around in case of such demonic outbreaks? Nuns with very bad habits, indeed…
Go Claire go! Your sisters need you! As many have said, you handled the action very well again. The use of reds and oranges makes it look like the chapel’s on fire or something. I have an idea about what’s going to happen, but I don’t want to spoil things should I be correct.
@ Sabina: Well, Yamino can’t show it right away. A pregnant woman’s belly doesn’t technically start expanding (creating a baby bump) until the fourth or fifth month! Claire couldn’t possibly be that far along yet.
On an unrelated note, I hope Yamino is decently realistic about the limitations pregnancy would impose on Claire. It would at least make movement (especially martial arts-type flips, climbing ladders, and so forth) harder, by virtue of being heavier, but probably also make her ill or give her a weak bladder. It’s not really the realism I’m wanting, but rather how awesome it’d be if Claire could kick ass in spite of it. (Okay, maybe Claire isn’t an asskicking type exactly, but it’d probably still come into play during action scenes like this.)
Hmm, is this a ref to Pocahantus? Awesome page! Interesting layout.
Is that Raven in the panel at the 8 o’clock position?
@Emily: It wasn’t meant to be an homage to Pocahontas, but that’s a really cool idea… now that you mention it, it reminds me of that scene, too!
@Fuzzybeard: Oh, no, that’s just Michael Jackson trying to be a nun. XD
*snerk*
nun-chucks, I was waiting for those.
“Nun”chucks, good times.
I like the exploding page layout a lot!
Since when has it been required that all nuns be ninjas? Are they nunjas?

Or maybe they’re just batshit insane? o.o

yep, they practice nunjutsu. Why do you think they wear the baggy ass clothes, it is to conceal weaponry.
Please be gentle to Catherine, I like her, and hope she is not damaged by all this.

Woah, too much time in English class.
Whose sword is that slashing Sister Cat?

Best. Page. Ever.
I love the panel layout, the fight scene feels fast-paced, tense and, er, action-y, lol
And Michael Jackson being a nun just made my day XD
NUN-chucks, *giggles*
Awesome page! The panels look really cool!

Very kick butt…*keeping it PG*
Ninja Nun sounds like an amazing concept
OMG stillme, that made so much sense that it was kinda scary! O.o
For the comic’s run so far, I have given you an 88/100. For the nunchucks, I take away double that. The Webcomic Illuminati have been notified.
wow nice action page!, me likes!
i vote for a cubee of Bubby…
I just want to know where they were stashing these weapons. Do they carry them around in case of such demonic outbreaks? Nuns with very bad habits, indeed…
I love how you try to put some subtle* humor into every page you complete. OH MY, snowy is that safe to be coming along?
omfg, just started reading your comic an hour or so ago and i totally loved it ^^
keep with the good work ^^

@Bree – Why not? This is a comic after all
Besides, I don’t think technically nuns can be possessed by evil cats either, but just look at Catharine
Action!!!! nice!
