Page Commentary No. 217

Gunwild: I've never actually seen "Who's the Boss?" and now I'm never gonna watch it because I dislike Scott Baio. But the title is the title it's gonna stay.

Psu: If you asked me, who’s the boss, I’m legally obligated to say Bruce Springsteen. It’s one of those things when you register to vote in New Jersey. Well... now that we have both those reference jokes out of the way...

Gunwild: Dr. Botz is never the type to practice subtle villainy.

Psu: Much less subtle when it comes to seduction. I imagine she would directly start with, “I have decided to seduce you now.”

Gunwild: We should try those yellow light reduction glasses to fix our sleep schedule, maybe then we'd be this optimistic.

Psu: You’d think she’d just build that into her eyes. Oh wait! Maybe she did, and that’s why they’re that shade of brown. Maybe she keeps the lenses to look pretty. And to aid her direct seduction. Anyway, not too many visual notes on this page. There’s a high likelihood I was running behind and requested we do a quick gag page again. I think we both also really liked this scene. Or maybe I did more. It’s kinda nice to see Mercy out of her armor. Though she’s not completely unprotected! She has one of those shield collars that Peia always wears. For emergencies! And if you’re wondering why Mercy hasn’t just webbed Botz’s mouth, I imagine that was the first thing she tried. But I’m gonna say Botz just ate through it with her mechanical tongue in what would be a very expensive to shoot special effect.

Gunwild: Well when you're kidnapping someone to use their brains, you have to more or less take care of them!

Psu: And we can imagine that on their trip together, they learned to overcome their differences. Because the real boss is the friends we met along the way.

Gunwild: Either that or it was awful for Mercy, which is fine. Because she's a kidnapper.

Psu: She should try settling down, maybe find a nice person that she can talk to about her problems.

Gunwild: Uhh I've got nothing to add... remember to use a new toothbrush every three months, people!

Psu: You’ve only got the one set of teeth. Unless you’re Botz. She’s probably got spares. Most of them she engineered herself!
