MAY FLOWERS!
It’s flower time on TWC. Vote to keep it floral.
In other news…
First, this comic is brought to you again by the two stalwart supporters The Lurker and Jeremy, who are both Mayor of Pucksburg again. Maybe you’re generous enough to join them! CHECK OUT THE PATREON!!!
As for this comic…
Puck’s expression in panel four was hard to capture. Not sure I got it right, but I tried. Fans of Puck’s violent side may note that she hasn’t actually punched anyone in a very long time. Like, over a decade has passed since her fists made contact with anyone. Well, you can probably tell that the dry spell ends soon.
Uh-oh….Someone better RUN and RUN FAST!!!
But why run when you think you’re winning?
There people who seem to believe that if they act like they’re winning, they can convince others of that fact. It can work for them.
I doubt it’ll work here.
I doubt it too.
47
Run, lady…while you have working knees.
She thinks she has the upper hand. But she is doomed.
Puck’s gone past plaid, she’s going for brick red with magenta.
Old lady better start singing, “Feet don’t fail me now. “
The feet, they will fail her. Guaranteed.
Before reading your description I was going to comment:
Oooh Puck is going to do some punching.
And I see from your description that Puck is about to do some punching.
This votey is almost as good as the Emily votey
Punching is always the most satisfying type of conclusion. And we can’t always top Emily, but we can try.
I’m just trying to figure out that modesty widget in Tracy’s navel.
They’re were five punches to the mouth that have been recorded as the most bloodied, most horrific and most deepening of most facial features throughout history. This punch will make Tyson, Butterbean and the head of facial/maxilar reconstructive surgery at UCLA to reflexively cross their legs because this punch will cause gonads across the world to ring.
I love this. Just saying.
Loveit.
That. Was a bad move.
I suppose it’s unfair because I, as a writer, forced her into it.
Oh, Nas. Nas, Nas, Nas. You don’t know many mothers do you? Sure, some might fall to that sort of threat. But not the sort who jumps out of nowhere shouting Surprise! You’ve just ticked her off.
Most mothers have fierce side, even the ones you don’t expect. And with the ones you DO expect to have a fierce side, clear the blast zone.
Oh yeah!
Never, never piss off the mommy.
Ohhhh…yeah, that’s a look of fear and anger, or fanger.
I get the threat, I do, it’s meant to mean “stop or I arrange for something bad to happen to your daughter”. You want her to avoid the threat.
Unfortunately, Puck takes a much more direct action to protecting her daughter, she sees a threat, she eliminates it.
Honestly, is it that surprising that Satan brought an avatar of Wrath?
We can rely upon Puck to think with her fists. At least she’s consistent.
Daphne’s the sort of person who’d help you hide a body. Isn’t she?
Indeed. Puck has helped Daphne hide evidence before, so this would be returning the favor.
“pigtails”? That’s not the distinguishing feature of Daphne I would have singled out….
Whoops. Forgot about Miranda, since I haven’t seen her in awhile. Never mind.
We saw her last comic! But I get it.
It’s Clobberin Time!!!!
That’s the Thing … about retribution. It always feels good.
Oooh, Cruella.
That was a mistake…
Can’t order harm to come to a little girl if you’re buried in a shallow grave out in the forest.
Don’t bury her. Just leave her out for the vultures and wolves.
Tie her to a tree near a traffic cam. A remote one that is in carnivore country. Make granny drunk, very drunk. “How drunk?”, one might ask. She’ll have to be so drunk that she would be passed out, feel no pain drunk. Because the nicest thing that I could think that would happen to her, after the facial deformities have been bequeathed, is that she would be taken out to a tree outside of the view of that remote traffic cam. Do traffic came have microphones? Anyway. One of the reasons for her being drunk would be moving her around. The second would be making a surgical incision in the abdomen. Nothing overly major.
Here comes the past that I got from an alternative dimension/ time-line fictional account of a WWII Destroyer in the Pacific/ Indonesian theater. After tyng them securely to a tree, standing up, when before they become groggy aware,pull out their intestines and string them along the bushes.
You’re given thought to this.
I have to be honest. It’s taken from an alternative history fictional novel. The Destroyermen. I think that the author is Taylor Anderson.
Honestly if I were Puck it wouldn’t matter if she *did* run, cause the issue isn’t what she said, or to whom she said it, the issue is that she’s revealed herself as a person who thinks that way about children. Them’s “you’re not allowed to stay on my planet anymore” words
Exactly. We know where this ends.
OK, the boss woman (she’s no lady) has well and truly overstepped the bounds. She’s toast.
Of the toastiest variety!
Puck, Ancient Fairy of Lore, is about to choke a bitch.
She can choke. But she can also hit.
Puck’s gonna do to her what Haddaway did to that guy in the last strip.
You’re noticing a pattern, I see.
I hope Puck isn’t overfond of that Minnie Mouse outfit, ’cause bloodstains are almost impossible to get out.
“CRUNCH!” ???
No, different method. Same outcome, but different method…
Adjacent method, anyway.
Cruella is about to be struck by a punch greater than anything Max Facepuncher could muster up. Parts of her are going to be sent back in time to the end of the Hadean eon, most of her will be painting the server room, and the what’s left will be launched forward in time to the heat death of the universe.
I hope Daphne has a big umbrella with her somewhere, she’s going to need it.
Her fault for standing in the splash zone.
na, daph was smart enough to wear black to this outing – you don´t see bloodstains on that
seiously though, the evil headwench has the survival instincts of a lemming – everyone with half a brainCELL can see that mt puck is about to blow. and i´m not talking about some cute mt st helens blow, but krakatoa levels of destruction
Olympus Mons, largest volcano in the solar system. Nothing compared to this.
Olympus Mons last erupted 25 million years ago. Now, look at Io. 400 active volcanoes including the ones holding the first and second place on list of most energetic volcanic event ever recorded.
But when Olympus Mons went off, it was probably pretty cool.
Good description.
That would mean that she would not only be punched by Puck, but by Theia (the planet that collided with Earth to form Luna), and the Late Heavy Bombardment.
Puck’s punching would out-do them all…
Evil b*tch= “You should be thinking about her future. Her safety.” Puck= “Her future. Her safety. Requires Your **** Be ****ED!”
Alternate dialogue. Valid.
Three observations:
There is a reasonable certainty that this bitch is about to get all Pucked up;
Being an ancient fairy of lore, it’s fair to say Puck is about to get all medieval on her;
I didn’t realize Canadians actually say “white trash” though I heard of “cas social”.
I look forward to Puck’s impending assault. It should be epic!
Canadians say ‘white trash’. Canadians also say ‘redneck’ though the Canadian redneck is different from the American one.
Good to know. We have variations down south. Redneck is a respectable term for rural folk. White trash is more of an economic vulgarism, i.e. the wrong side of the tracks folk. Now if you are “Sorry White Trash”, that’s the bottom of the barrel in any occurrence. I trust Puck will sort it out.
Up here, it’s a rural versus urban divide. And both terms are derogatory.
Puny demonic subdeities….
They deserve their fate.

Something very like.
I suspect this may be the last time we see this character. At least in one piece.
I suspect you’re right. Character breaking apart in three, two, one…
The bad guys keep coming to a terminal end, one getting turned into ground round and another becoming tiger food. Wonder what the final end for this stupid biatch is going to be. And it’s certainly going to be final for threatening Pucks pigtailed cutie.
Gee, this is getting really grim. Kinda surprising that we’re throwing in death and dismemberment into this slice-of-life comedy.
How could a “slice-of-life” comedy or otherwise not include death.
After all, we are all dancing a tarantella and singing memento mori around the burning pyres of our lives as the darkness and the cold creep in. YOLO
Someone pretty crazy once said “We feel the most alive at that point closest to death”. Which is the start point for a different diatribe on truth and madness.
Fair enough.
A different kind of Miranda Act in 3 … 2 … 1 …
Heh. I approve.
I want to clarify that I am not endorsing murder in any way, but they can’t harm your family if they are dead. So don’t threaten peoples families, just their money, you’ll live longer.
I don’t see any murder. This was clearly suicide.
Don’t worry. We got the message. The entirely legal and in no way questionable message.
“Ain’t nobody more peaceful than a dead troublemaker.” – Keith Laumer
Indeed.
I do like Daphne’s expression in the last panel. I get the feel of ‘May whatever deity you believe in have mercy upon you, because Puck will show none whatsoever now that you have threatened her family’. Another take would be; ‘Make peace with your God, because you are about to meet them’.
I was trying for that. Glad I succeeded.
Hell hath NO fury like a Mama! The other guys had it easy with the tiger and puppy shredder.
Tigers and puppy shredders are quick. Puck maybe not so much.
Tigers and puppy shredders, and Puck… oh my!!
The triumvirate of deadly instruments.
Time to see if that pit grinder is choked up or not
Good for disposal.
How did the crater get there that was where the server room was?
I saw nothing , I heard nothing, I know nothing.
—–
officer : what happened ?
Puck: she fell off the curb.
Must’ve been a really high curb.
The next comic should be easy to draw, nothing but black redaction boxes and squeltching noises….
Well, maybe. We shall see.
Ohhhhhhhh! That’s where the puppy shredder comes from.
Ew. And no.
Puck: “Thank you.”
Woman: “For what?’
Puck: “Giving me an excuse.”
Exactly.
Puck’s ears are folded back! Time to dive into the bunker.
Hope it’s lead-lined because it’s about to go nuclear!
