We return to the scheme chamber

Panel 1: Holly angry pointing at villain photos on corkboard. "Okay games. This fuckshit killed us and we don't even remember it happening. Let's figure out what his deal is and then kill him."
Panel 2: Nova is in her astro-themed costume. "If we're still assuming his name isn't a total red hrering, maybe his power is something medical like "stroke" or "aneurysm." Something that lets him kill us just by looking at us." Holly: "Wouldn't the cops be able to figure that out when they autopsy our bodies?" Nova: "They better not I was gonna eat mine."
Panel 3: Max: "Actually, your bodies are still on the ground in the parking lot. I can still use all the cameras. You just look like you're asleep. Creepy. Some employee from the Taco Bell is prodding Holly with a broom trying to wake her up. Hmm... You guys said you don't remember dying at all?" Holly: "Yeah, it was like I warped straight back to my bed."
Panel 4: Max snaps her fingers. "Okay, yeah! That's gotta be it! It's a perception power! He's blocking people from remembering whatever killed you!"
Panel 5: Nova: "That is bullshit." Max: "Uh, why?" Nova: "Because it is." Max: "Nova, I really think I'm on to something here! If I'm wrong can you actually explain why?" Nova: "Because you've never gotten anything right before?"
Panel 6: Max angry: "Oh okay you're just being a dick again." Nova: "Excuse me?"

this is worse than when I fought the Pizza freak

Panel 1: Nova looks at Holly's corpse while Forget-Me-Not walks out of the RV. Nova: "Holly did you just fall asleep."
Panel 2: Nova still looking down while Forget-Me-Not prepares to stab her. Nova: "Holly. Holly stop being an ass and get up."
Panel 3: Hannah respawns in her bed. "The fuck?"
Panel 4: Hannah sits up and snaps her fingers. "My powers aren't working. Did I die? I don't remember dying. Ugh. I do not have time to go to the DMV right now."
Panel 5: Hannah dials on her phone. "I should call Nova..."
Panel 6: Naya respawns in bed, huge and round. From phone, Hannah: "Hey Nova pick up your damn phone. Did you also die? All the real objects on your person get sent with you when you respawn so I know you have your phone. Ugh, my stomach hurts. Ate too much pizza earlier."
Panel 7: Haya struggles to walk while she hiccups and heaves. Hannah: "You're probably handling it fine though. You've got the stomach of champions. Anyway. I'm gonna head to the DMV to get my power back."

You got your neck all over my knife

Panel 1: Nova launching herself and Holly through the sky using a chunk of ground. They are travelling from Star City to Indianapolis.
Panel 2: The girls touch down in a Taco Bell dumpster. An RV is parked in front.
Panel 3: Holly slams the RV door open. "Howdy! I'm here for my doctor's appointment!"
Panel 4: A person with a featureless white body and the face of a blue flower, Forget-Me-Not. A second person with a nice shirt and a face mask, The Doc. Holly: "Wow. Just you in here, huh? Jane didn't even give you muscle?"
Panel 5: Forget-Me-Not approaches Holly. Holly says: "You are the granter, right? "Doctor?" Or maybe "fixer?" Granter powers only let you give other people powers. No combat ability. I mean, I don't even need to kick your ass."
Panel 6: Forget-Me-Not stabs Holly in the neck. She does not react and keeps trying to talk, it all comes out wet gibberish.

Let's put our guts together and solve this mystery

Panel 1: Nova belching. "Okay let's- UUUOOOORRRP! Jesus. Okay let's consider who the other members of her crew are.
Panel 2: Person on top of wall mind controlling an ICE agent. Nova says: "Miss Fascism and Shatterstar are known villains. Powers are in their names. Miss Fascism used to operate mostly along the southern border, fucking up immigration checkpoints. She disappeared when Obama was elected and hasn't been heard from since."
Panel 3: Person in a cloak shattering all the glass in a city. "Shatterstar is responsible for The Incident in New Delhi. Also hasn't been heard from since. Guess we know where they went now."
Panel 4: Max says: "So that leaves The Doc and Whisper as unknowns... Their names both kinda sound like they could correspond to granter powers. Seems more likely Jane has someone restoring her powers after she dies, right? How common are resurrection powers?"
Panel 4: Holly looking at the map. "Not common, and they don't work on magic form corpses because you aren't actually dead. I think Jane respawning somewhere she has a granter is most likely. It would have to be a mobile home, right?" Nova: "Yeah you respawn at *your* bed, not just wherever you last nodded off."
Panel 6: Nova says: "If they are using an RV how are we gonna find it? They're almost certainly driving out of town before Jane pops off."
Panel 7: Max stands up. "Oh! I have an idea! Hang on a minute I've gotta go to Home Depot." Nova: "Why" Max: "Snack run."

Welcome to the pizza party I mean planning session to save the world

Panels 1-3: Burning cities, labeled in sequence: "PHILADELPHIA 9/12" "TORONTO 9/15" "DETROIT (not a target)
Panel 4: Holly eating pizza. "Okay so here's what we know."
Panel 5: Exploding building. "Jane's strategy seems to be to deal maximum damage with her opening attack, and then bite it like a bitch as soon as the local heroes show up."
Panel 6: Brick Wall Johnson splatters Jane on a brick wall. "No matter how many times she dies, she comes back still with powers. So either she's got a power that cheats death, or one of the Devil's Five is a granter."
Panel 7: Holly pointing at a map. "The places she hits follow a clear path that stays on land. She doesn't have arbitrary teleportation, something's taking her between them. So what's up? Any ideas?"
Panel 8: Max and Nova both bloated as hell. Max: "Well my idea of 'eat so much pizza I throw up to get all this garbage out of me' has only resulted in my stomach being even more overfilled." Nova: "Maybe we should order Chinese tomorrow. I think my powers are hitting the limit of how much dairy they can process. The bloating has not subsided for three days." Holly: "Ideas not related to your stomachs!"

You cannot kill me in a way that matters

Panel 1: Holly and Max celebrate while Nova yells at them. Holly: "Awesome job! Perfect sneak attack!" Max: "Yay! Yay!" Nova: "Kill stealing asshole! Stop having fun!"
Panel 2: Holly nudges Max and says "Nova has plenty of rep already she's just being an ass. Taking down a villain this deadly will really get your name out there." Max looks disgusted. "Euuugh."
Panel 3/4: Nova and Holly's phones buzz.
Panel 5: Reporter with a huge chin stands in front of a burning building. "This is Chit Crackus with the Boston Times. Moments ago-"
Panel 6: Screen covered in red.
Panel 7: Thumb wipes away blood.
Panel 8: Jane licking her thumb. "Try again, y'all."

rolling up to a national tragedy in hashtag slutmode

Panel 1: Jet has the buildings commissioner in a guillotine. He says: "Please! Please don't decapitate me! I couldn't have known the buildings were weak to being nine-elevened!" Jet: "Yes you fucking did I told you repeatedly!" Guy: "Are you happy now? Now that you've been proven right?" Jet: "No motherfucker this is the exact thing I was trying to prevent!" Guy: "Please! I'll give you anything you want! I have so much money from taking bribes!" Jet: "I want your corpse."
Panel 2: Jet releases the rope.
Panel 3: The guillotine blade falls.
Panel 4: The buildings commissioner is decapitated.
Panel 5: His head falls into the box.
Panel 6: Nova walks through rubble and corpses. "Holy shit. Suddenly this outfit feels wildly inappropriate."
Panel 7: Jet points to the side. "Hiya fuckface! Calamity Jane's over there eating theb odies, go kill her." Nova: "Alright. Where did you get a guillotine?" Jet: "Guillotine store."
Panel 8: Jane eating the bodies. "Mmph. Mmmgh. Oh my god. So good."
Panel 9: Jane presents a human heart and tips her hat. "Oh. Howdy miss Starpower. Care to join me?"

You people have no idea how fucked you are

Panel 1: Dick Nuttus's nipples are hard as always. "I'm Dick Nuttus with Star City news, here at the former location of Firmament Tower. Just moments ago, an unknown projectile nine-elevened the tower. Thousands are dead."
Panel 2: Dick Nuttus shot in the head.
Panel 3: Camera swivel
Panel 4: Woman dressed like a cowboy holding a smoking gun. "Howdy motherfuckers. Welcome to the apocalypse."
Panel 5: She turns to the camera and spins her gun. "Y'all have gotten too used to us magic folk playing cops and robbers with each other, that you forgot what powers really are. So here's the deal. Me and my crew, the Devil's Six, are gonna end the world. And magic is gonna rule the ashes."
Panel 6: She points the gun at the camera. "Y'all deserve to know the names that're gonna kill you. Whisper. Miss Fascism. The Doc. Shatterstar. Forget-Me-Not. And me. Calamity Jane."
Panel 7: Jane tips her hat. "See ya soon."
Panel 8: BANG, TV no-signal color bars.
Panel 9: Holly and Max glance at each other concerned.

first tummy comic to feature nine eleven

Panel 1: Holly says "So anyway the next thing to do is..." In the background a projectile shoots through the upper floors of a skyscraper.
Panel 2: The skyscraper collapses and the shockwave knocks a brick wall onto Holly.
Panel 3: Bricks
Panel 4: Holly reaches out from under the bricks
Panel 5: Holly and Max get up. Holly: "What the fuck. You okay?" Max: "Yeah I put my armor on. Unfortunately it doesn't protect me from HURK upsetting my stomach even worse by moving so suddenly."
Panel 6: Max: "So what just happened?" Holly: "Shockwave of some sort. Probably a power going off." Max: "Feel like I'm gonna puke..." Holly: "Probably a good idea considering how much random garbage you ate. We're definitely about to get in a fight. Damn, my phone is blowing up way faster than usual. How big was the blast?"

Max installs exciting new gameplay features

Panel 1: Holly looks at Max who is in digestive distress from eating a ton of garbage. Holly: "Holy shit. You didn't need to eat all of it at once. So what powers did you get?"
Panel 2: Max says "So the first thing I tried was that copy of Burnout Revenge for the PS2. Turns out the only word it gives me is "videogame" and not anything to do with the game itself. I don't know if gamer powers will be useful in most fights..."
Panel 3: Max creates a magic baseball bat. "The baseball lets me summon a bat. That's cool as fuck I think." Holly: "Using melee weapons to straight up beat people to death is considered bad manners in magic fights." Max: "I don't really care." Holly: "Yeah I figured."
Panel 4: Max summons a suit of armor. "You had a bunch of like plates and tin cans in there which let me armor myself! I dunno how practical this stuff is though, I'm heavy enough just from all the crap in my gut... Need to find something that can just boost my body's durability. Or reduce my weight. Or make my stomach hurt less..."
Panel 5: Holly says: "Oh also did the brick do anything? In Boston there's this guy called Brick Wall Johnson who's the number one strongest hero in the city. The same word doesn't give the same power to everyone though..." Max looks embarassed "Yeah I don't wanna talk about what the brick does for me."

Wires says: "Sorry about the mistake! May we offer you two dollars off a pack of cinnamon twists?"

stomach like those machines full of little toys in the grocery store checkout aisle

Panel 1: Holly and Max. Holly says: "So my first piece of advice is to not come to Magical Girl meetups in your civilian identity." Max: "Oh oops." Holly: "I guess you've already blown your cover so it's whatever. By the way, do your powers work when you're not transformed? Some peoples do, some don't."
Panel 2: Max rattles her belly. "Nope, but the things I swallow do stay in my stomach!"
Panel 3: Max transforms and lights a fire in her hand. Holly says: "Do they ever... come out?" Max: "Smaller stuff does sometimes. If it stays in there I can keep using the power though. Basically got permanent torch power cause of the flashlight!"
Panel 4: Holly sets up bottles. "Do you know how to aim fireballs?" Max: "Haha no." Holly: "Alrighty, we'll start with that then. Gonna show you how to aim."
Panel 5: Holly stands behind Max and holds her arms into place. "Hold up your hand and make a V with your fingers. Aim down it like sights." Max: "I don't think this is how sights work." Holly: "It's more about convincing the magic you've aimed correctly than actually doing it."
Panel 6: Max shoots a bottle with a fireball. Holly: "Yeah, there you go!"

There's another very large reason I think she's hot that I dare not say

Panel 1: Nova says: "Oooh, I get it, your powers get a boost from being stuffed like mine! Hah, how did I not realize that before? No wonder you show up to fights clearly stuffed to the gills so often." Holly: "You can tell?" Nova: "It's really obvious. I don't get why you try to hide it! I never have. There's a girl I've been seeing recently who eats damn near as much as I do. She doesn't care if anyone sees! I think it's cool."
Panel 2: Holly blushes. "I, uh. You haven't mentioned you were seeing someone! What do you... think of her?"
Panel 3: Nova grabs Holly's shoulders and pulls her close. Their bloated stomachs press against each other. Nova: "Holly. Holly she's the hottest woman I've ever seen in my life. Oh my fucking god. She's so shamelessly confident in herself. She's so open and honest and does what she wants without worrying what people will think of it. But she's still so patient with people. I don't get how she puts up with some of them. When I see her it's what I wish I could be. But I'm stuck being me, so I'll settle for snogging it."
Panel 4: Holly stressing out. In the background Nova picks up the peajak's corpse and opens her mouth. Holly thinks: "How the fuck... does she think I'm more confident than her? She's the only person who's made me feel good about myself at all in... forever! Everything she thinks she sees in me... Didn't I learn it from her? She's why I've felt more confident. More shameless."
Panel 5: Holly twiddling her thumbs and blushing. Nova quaffs the peajak in the background. Holly thinks: "Shit, though. Even if I don't understand it, hearing her talk about me like that could set my powers into overdrive on its own!" Her stomach goes BWUUUURRR. "Haha, wow, forgot my stomach feels like it's gonna explode for a second there.
