Deltarune by Toby Fox versus Girl Genius by Phil and Kaja Foglio

(I could do the exact same meme but it only says 'Polyamory' and that would also work)

This page has always been one of my favorites, even though it is not part of the main story (and, in fact, is not really even part of a side story, but only part of the introduction to one, "Revenge of the Weasel Queen"). Nonetheless, it is a perfect showcase of the humor of Girl Genius, which has always been one of the aspects of this comic that most endears it to me.

Here we have a perfect synthesis of Phil and Kaja's writing, Phil's drawing, and Cheyenne's coloring producing a vignette that's delightful to look at, extremely funny, and an intensely satisfying skewering of a surprising number of clichés, both inside and outside of the "mad scientist" subgenre, as well a providing the entire premise of the comic in a nutshell.

I especially like the way this page highlights the expressiveness of Phil's art, not only in portraying actual facial expressions (especially maniacal ones), but body language as well. Ah, if only I could dance on the bones of my enemies with the grace and glee of that unnamed white-haired Spark in the final panel!

Moloch VERY reasonably concerned about the potential of that third head being left lying around. Even if it doesn't like, regenerate on it's own (or attract weird scavengers) you KNOW some spark / go getter minion is going to make off with some of it for some nefarious purpose

Behold! Sketches of Act III of (one staging of) @leletha-jann 's triumphant Girl Genius in-universe opera...

"LA VOIX DES HETERODYNES!"

Here we have the Baron Wulfenbach, accompanied by a small personal Chorus of Veiled People in Hats, who offer commentary on his actions.

The Baron descenda from Castle Wulfenbach with a Mysterious Orb! Agatha Heterodyne has been INTERRUPTED in her moment of triumph!

Baron Wulfenbach holds his Mysterious Orb aloft as he sings one final song! The Chorus of Veiled People is revealed as six-winged, many-eyed ANGELS, and their hats are actually HALOS!

.

(Anyway. Please enjoy these humble sketches! They are but a pale impression... Of the true OPERA!)

Snickering about this all day. A+ dialogue. Reminds me of the sort of absolute candor you get out of Tarvek if you stomp on his toes hard enough.

(This is one of my favorite pages. Complete filter fail. Only facts. Love it.)

...so, uh, yeah, I have a favorite Dreen now, something I was not expecting.
