This is perhaps the most nonsensical comment below the comic I've ever read. What fluffy clouds? I love it.

The Good Thing is it's Rock & Roll?

Nuclear Nojira about to rampage through Neo Birmingo

Not surprised. That coven did a real number on Noa.

Congrats to the person who guessed they are/became Zimmy's "negative constructs". I really hope those guys are just nobodies and not actual people('s souls?) • Everything piling on top of each other reminds me of the colliding plans in Inglorious Bastards but slightly less physically violent.

Think happy thoughts

We're surrounded by beanstalk!

Interesting. Are all of Zimmy's constructs turning into monster-eating witches or is this just localised? What is Annie, Parley and the rest seeing? The whole 'immersion' will be undone if this is a widespread effect.

I remember Blue called Noa (presumably) an angry person. That was specifically stated. But why was she angry? Simply cause Annie and co came to deal with Zimmy? Coyote called Noa an artificial human and pointed out to Annie that Noa is not a human at all, too. So what is she at this point, if she's disrupting Zimmy's world around people from outside? A giant guardian construct?

Use The Orb!

Calling it now, Jenny is going to cement her bad guy status by killing Noa.

...da woop.

Brrrmb and shoop are non standard comic noises.

Lemon curry?

Pokemon, i choose you

Silvie: No, No, Noa!

zimmy's world sounds like the warped version of teletubbies

So in term of roles in the five witch band (+ a guest in Jack) we have : Jenny, mmade all revlevant decisions acting on the other and playing face to other people. Bard/leader Noa : Strong, normally disciplined and cold blooded , but potentially caught up in consequences of a twisted past. Currently so. Fighter/Brawn Rosa : not a combatant, provide analysis and information on the world around them and deal with the esotheric threat. Wizard(Abjuration)/Brain Zara : talkative, but without much of a filter. find people easily, and some perception around her. Some level of support. Priest(Seer)/ Foil Sylvie : ... Druid(rabbit)/ heart (filled with Fear instead of Love) Jack, 'love interest' of the plucky heroines, with innate strength but no scaling, and also plot hook for the rest on their quest. Guest/Lancer

"Use the orb!" - seems that Tom has caught up to last year's memes :P Also, has Noa being fractured anything to do with the Distortion being a "Fractured Storm"?

It's as horrifying as it is satisfying to see their monstrous plans fall apart.

The problem with creating driven, powerful monsters to use as tools is you better hope you never, ever have to find out what happens if you accidentally slip the leash... And I think we're about to find out.

the orb is one of the devices, zimmy powered zimmy detector

Hmm, maybe Noa finally remembered what happened to her and is out for revenge? :o

And here we go!

It looks like Noa has them ... encircled.

I wonder if the group here is about to attempt reconvening with Noa somehow. Sounds like they don't have a lot of time before that globe stops working...

Oh, is it the same intrusive way angel!Kat disrupts the ether? ... Is this another "the universe demands a painter" type thing? Annie diverted a demigod of questionable humanity from killing Zimmy, so a new one was selected?

Very cool action pose for Rosa in panel three, there. She's clearly the most sensible and grounded of the witches, so despite her being an accessory to murder I do find myself hoping she gets out of this in one piece. Maybe she'll even properly talk to Jack if that bit of Zara's narrative is true - although probably not if Noa razes the Inner World entirely.

Considering Noa’s displayed personality this isn’t really that surprising. The biggest surprise is how powerful she is compared to Zimmy.

Shoooop.

You can't say fluffy clouds, you'll get sued!

I can't imagine what Ricky Lee Jones would make of Rosa.

The more we know about Jenny the less she seems to have Zimmy's best interests at heart.

Yeah, Noa's pretty stoned right now. She's really high. And now she's purple and red and yellow... (and on fire?)

I really like the panel 3 pic of Rosa summoning the Orb! Looks like Rosa, the Super Hero! Great artwork, Tom.

She has achieved enlightenment and become one with everything. Ok, but seriously. Noa absorbed the "control the Zimmyverse" rune?

Huh. I suspect this is coming up on finding out what it is that Sylvie can do. Which given her ongoing confidence crisis, might turn out to be pretty unpleasant.

Maybe don't bring weird circle beings into known unstable magical territory. But hey, I'm not a qualified magic user so what do I know?

Spicy clouds.

Getting pretty big now, this inverted, everted world. Stress building up. Strain beginning to show. Strong things fail suddenly and violently...

Oh, I CALLED IT!

I can't believe this is the first time I clocked the "witch with a crystal ball" visual, that's so cool

All around you? You could almost say you've been…encircled.
