We're nearing the halfway point of the month and it'd be awesome if the donation bar matched. :) (I have a bill due on Sunday it's going to!) Have $26 to go!
I think even Rama would notice it if a lightning bolt struck him. I just checked how much voltage is in a lightning bolt and it is anywhere from between 100 million volts to a billion. And Vincent has this kind of power at his fingertips, I KNEW he was awesome!
Though it looks like she’s slightly in the light effect of the lightning effect.
Rama and his ‘boys’ might have taken the brunt of it, but Filaire is probably going to have a tingly body for a while. Probably best if she try to help Vin escape.
Vin’s attack puts Darrik’s little move against the “Demon Horse” to shame.
This is a properly impressive attack, no matter who you are or what you can do. Darrik’s attack came from an internal source. Vin’s was external. He can probably do this again., any time he wants.
Actually, does he even need to become a technomage at this point? What exactly do technomages do and how do they make a living at it? In short, what’s their function in society? I can understand militarily how useful they’d be but what else are they good for?
Technomages can range from artists to soldier and anything in between.
Their function in society depends on what they want to do. Although, I’m honestly not sure what jobs would have “technomage” as a requirement or resume enhancer.
Spec Ops trooper comes to mind, and Artist is the other one that was mentioned.
Sculptor is most likely. But painting and other forms of art are likely possible for a technomage.
Sculpting could be accomplished by stripping molecules away from a solid block with technomagery, or by adding material to a template or building it from nothing instead.
Painting and other art forms would likely only be a matter of manipulating the tools.
Okay; in answer to my own non-question…
Vincent just watched one yellow/gold vixen be murdered right in front of him while he could do nothing. Maybe he was determined that it not happen again and aimed more at The Boys threatening Filaire to prevent a recurrence?
looks like Vin is getting struck by an actual lightning strike then chaneling it into rama and the other 2. plus at 100 volts per inch of air the bolt has to arc through means even if its not a total ko those 3 are getting knocked on their asses
even though it may leave some of them furless, I think the more drastic effect would be deafness. I don’t think any of them were shielding their ears on this one. It will, however, draw a lot of attention their way by anyone in the air, unless it makes them want to stay away…
Okay, so brute-boys didn’t get punctured a bunch of times. They just got electrocuted. Also, I’m thinking that Vin actually intended to do this based on his stance.
Filaire had two knifes and now has two stunned opponents between her and Rama. Dose she take out the immediate threat or bypass them and go for the Gold? Tune in next time……..Same fox time, same fox channel
Not to be a party pooper to anyone that thinks he can do this Whenever he wants, but if you look back a few strips you just had to see this coming.
It seems Vin may have a weather control ability, this storm was brewed up from his absolute rage, and he couldn’t send this bolt flying until he’d stepped outside (giving him a line between himself and the sky). None-the-less, this was impressive, and should he master his control of it, he’ll be able to direct lightning from a storm in a much more focused and powerful way, not to mention any other powers he may have that stems from this ability.
That is precisely what I was getting at, it just seemed that, now that everyone has seen it, many have forgotten about it, and I felt like popping bubbles :p.
Awesome! o/ I was waiting for this! I agree that it looks intentional on Vin’s part. Based on his stance, it’s clear that he’s directing those bolts, and I wonder if Rama will realize that or blame it on chance. I do hope Filaire is alright; besides being cute, it seems she may be turning toward the Light Side. ^.^

Lightning bolt!
Well, I suppose it’s a bit more like “chain lightning” but that’s not really as memetic.
TerataNayeri
Well, at least Filaire avoided the lightning. Nice attack Vin. Even Rama looks startled!
Terrec
Startled? I’d go so far as to say that he’s shocked!
FrozenShade

What comes next for Filaire is a defining moment.
Helping Vin escape might curry favor with House Akaelae and lead to a better life.
Killing Rama would probably give more immediate satisfaction.

Unfortunately, Rama’s the type to wake up at exactly the wrong time if someone tries to execute him while he’s unconscious.

It’s probably not that easy for Vin. But it’s still something that will come in handy when he becomes a technomage. ๐

What do you mean by ‘artist’ out of curiosity?

vincent used thundershock. It’s super effective!

Vin, Vin, Vin… You should have turned in the other direction and given Rama the full effect!

Lycanthrope
Rama, being at the epicenter (how convenient), we can hope incurred the brunt. Not holding out hope for him to be totally incapacitated.
cwg
He was holding Vin when struck, …

I love Rama’s expression in the background – it kinda like “What THE….OWWW!!!” I like that. ๐
K Fox (do it again, Vin, do it again)
Flowerlark
xenomorph22, that comment made my day. XD
WolfwithGlasses
Looks like a “shocking” experience for Rama and his hobos
Maia
Well, that took care of the “smug grin” problem…but how much abuse will it take to put Rama out of the fight?
WolfwithGlasses
Abuse, what Abuse? In case of Rama and his helpers I would call that a deserved punishment.
Maia
Abuse in this case being used in place of “throttling”
Eboreg
Okay, so brute-boys didn’t get punctured a bunch of times. They just got electrocuted. Also, I’m thinking that Vin actually intended to do this based on his stance.
Tvorsk
Anyone still doubts that Vincent is the Stormwolf? ๐
Too bad Rama can’t die here or we wouldn’t have a villain for future comics… ๐
V4V
Sturmwolf sounds better
Hrliss
Blast you Plot Armor!!
Tvorsk
It’s blast-resistant, as long as plot requires it. ๐
Hrliss
Plot Armor has God Mode enabled…

Filaire had two knifes and now has two stunned opponents between her and Rama. Dose she take out the immediate threat or bypass them and go for the Gold? Tune in next time……..Same fox time, same fox channel
Maia
Always assuming that Filaire didn’t suffer some highly negative affects of HOLDING a conductive material while being struck by lightening
hariman
As I mentioned before, Rama’s the type to wake up at exactly the wrong time if someone tries to kill him while unconscious.
Plus, they have no idea when the bomb will go off. In fact, Vin doesn’t even know about the bomb!
Tvorsk
VINCENT: What happen ?
FILAIRE: Rama set us up the bomb.
VINCENT: What !!
Draj
FILARE: We get signal!
VINCENT: It you!
SYRUS: All your base are belong to us.
SYRUS: Hahaha.
V4V
You’ve been … THUNDERSTRUCK!!!

High Voltage Rock’n’Roll indeed ๐

You realize that this was hinted at, and nearly confirmed if one paid attention for last few years? ๐
It’s an epic scene… and I’m glad that now every reader knows. ๐

I have to say, this is one of the more amazing comics Tiff has done.
