That's an odd face in the second panel... But Annie's about to get her agidyne on in the last panel.

What is going on in those first two panels? At first I read it as her coming out of the ether back into the real world, but she wasn't in ethereal mode in the last strip. There's just a weird unexplained glow in the last panel, and the first panel of today's.

It look to me like she might have been teleported back to where she was before she went after the wisp(behind the big rock). Supposing that she actually did leave her physical location to chase the voice and didn't just take an Astral Jaunt or something.

Visions with in visions, insinuating she never actually moved from the second to last panel http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1246 onward. But then I also read the whole wisp exchange as Coyote talking with his mouth full the first time through, so who knows. Unhappy Meal fucked around with this message at 12:31 on Sep 25, 2013 |

Oh god, Drunk annie might be one of my favorite panels for an avatar. If I didn't already have Parley trying to communicate, I would get that so fast. I'm going to enjoy the next page, just to see her learn how forest diplomacy works.

The very first thing I thought upon seeing that panel is "I gotta animate some gifs outta that face" but thankfully someone beat me to it, and it was wonderful. Love that "let's get dangerous" face at the end too! vvv I think most of what we saw happpened in her mind, and she woke up vvv Blackheart fucked around with this message at 14:25 on Sep 25, 2013 |

The first thing I thought of with that white light, is what if Coyote just pulled that memory out of her. Was there something there that happened that he didn't want Annie to see? If so, was the one side of her face "blinking" similar to symptoms of a stroke?

I took the white light to be coyote vanishing, but I agree it could definitely be something more ominous.

That's definitely the same chunk of masonry that she's behind in that panel and then in panel 3 of today's strip. Either Coyote just whipped out his teleportation gun, or she was standing there all along.

My guess is that wisps don't really exist outside of the ether, but Annie's tried to make it seem like it was 'real' in order to keep her from questioning the experience.

The white light is being blinded by the etheric radiance of the wasp and probably Coyote himself. Ether seemed to bleed into reality there, and the switch back is probably somewhat disorienting. Also, Annie had just had her mind messed with, so that's disconcerting as well.

I like to think that Annie is particularly miffed about that one beak on Ysengrin's other remaining ear. She's all "aw hell naw, bitches ain't makin' Ysengrin earless!"

So is Ysengrin losing on purpose in order to force Antimony to intervene, does anyone reckon? Or is he legitimately getting overwhelmed by these monsters? 'cos the latter would be you know kind of pathetic

I figure the latter, and it would be pathetic, and I think that's kind of the point \/ Allow me to revise my statement: It would certainly be understandable, but Ysengrin would surely be mortified if he had to be rescued by a little girl (even if said little girl has fire powers and possibly a sword that can cut through anything) Rasamune fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Sep 25, 2013 |

Hey, we don't know how many he's fought up to this point while Annie was being lied to by a wispy-waspy-doggie treat. For all we know he's fought like 3 or 4 dozen of these guys and it's beginning to wear him down. Go on, try fighting off a few dozen guys without taking a Gatorade break, it's almost as tiring as soccer.

Bear in mind that Ysen's actual physical strength is pretty non-existent. He's just a quavering old wolf who probably couldn't run five feet without needing to stop for a breather. The strength and endurance of a goon, in other words. All his power comes from Coyote's gift, and we know almost nothing about how that gift works, or how much influence Coyote might still have over it. If Ysengrin ever gets his own sort of redemption story arc, it might involve him renouncing his tree body entirely and learning to walk on his own, as it were.

You know, I think a lot of people attributed Ysengrin's slowly disappearing ear to Coyote loving with him, but todays comic makes me wonder if he doesn't just come down and get into fights with these guys every once in a while.

Ysengrin isn't anything if not proud, so even though he might be called General it's entirely possible that he really is not as powerful as he used to be and refuses to acknowledge it. Those guys look pretty small compared to him, but I guess if he was swarmed that might be a different story. I am legitimately curious as to how he's going to handle Annie's assistance. Or this whole thing is like when Annie asked a bunch of scary beings to deliver an apology card to Mort. They'll all have a great big laugh, and Fun City will live up to its name.

I don't think it was slowly disappearing. I think Tom's art style and his depiction of the ear gradually changed over time.
