Please stand by

A bit off my pace. This week's post is coming. I promise. Just need an extra day.

The New Girl

So sorry, my lovelies. I was out of town last week, so, alas, I neglected to post. But now I am back, and so is Vixens Vendredi (-ish).

And today, we bring you The New Girl.

Don't let that wooden leg fool you; she's still the most agile human being alive.

What's her real name? Your guess is as good as mine. To date, she's introduced herself as Carmen, Lenore, Giselle, Odile, Isolde, Elisabeth, Beatrice, Elektra, Dorabella, Pamina, Semele, and Amastre. How she knows so much about opera and ballet is a bit of a mystery as well, but it is rumoured that she was a prima ballerina before she lost her leg.

I'm not sure if she features in the first story arc, which is more or less laid out at this time, but she's definitely waiting in the wings. If this were Charlie's Angels, she'd probably be Cheryl Ladd.


That's a wrap for this week.

Alternate masthead design

I'm not particularly fond of my title card, so I'm experimenting a little with the typeface et cetera.

I don't think it's quite there, yet. But it's progress.

Whoops.

Sorry, my dears, Vixens Vendredi is running late this week.  I haven't forgotten about you, I've just had my hands full between two jobs and trying to get the pages done for the other story I'm drawing right now. Hope you're having a lovely Winter Solstice.

Tougher than he looks

Philip prefers strategy and sophistication in settling differences, but is not afraid to engage in fisticuffs when it is called for.

Mystery box

A messenger brings a puzzle box to Woolcott's Millinery.

Who could have sent it? What could it contain?

And will the Vixens be able to solve the puzzle in time?

It's a good thing Emma keeps a set of lockpicks handy.

En garde

Miss Quinn reverse-engineers the Red Sigma death ray, and invents a sheilding device. But will it be enough to protect her and her teammates, or will Red Sigma's scientist come up with even more sinister technology?
