Wonder what Dark-Queen-Gina did on her journey before the orcs nabbed her? Find out in this AWESOME Guest Strip by Armando Valenzuela of Atomic Laundromat! Thanks, Armando!
P.S. Don’t forget my other two comics I produce 3-times per week EACH at Roddenberry.com! Gene’s Journal (about a 10-year-old Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek) and Rod & Barry (two alien scouts sent to scout earth for annihilation, only to try and keep it safe due to their love of all things sci-fi and Olivia Munn!)




*cue the Gnome Glee Club* “You’re so sweet, horseflies keep hangin’ ’round your face. Kentucky Moonshine could never take your place, and your eyes give me goosebumps down to my toes…”
Don’s colors could make ANYTHING pop. Mad props to him!!!!
Haha! Love Atomic Laudromat. So it is awesome seeing this guest strip!
Is that Gnomeo? LOL. Looks purty. Nice work, Armando
love the look.
Dark Queen to Pink Princess!!!!
CUTE! The question in my mind is this…Is that Giles or goes Dark Queen/Gina have her own watcher? And if it IS Giles, how is he getting from one Group to the Next?
My brain hurts.
Love the colors Don!
@Armando and Pixie – Thanks!
It could be Giles, remember that the Gnomes have knowledge of the past, present and future (and possible futures), so they can probably move thru time as well. Also, I’m pretty sure that they can teleport.
The Gnomes eyes look spaced out.
Awwww! I’m not usually frustrated by a guest strip interrupting (in fact, this might be 1st time) … but Dang! the action was getting pretty nail-biting!
Apart from that, though, it’s a damned fine guest strip. Thank you, Armando! Your style of the Billverse characters is really pretty. I especially enjoy how Gina’s freckles stand out in your rendering. Very kawaii.
I’m a bit surprised that Gina’s (or Gypsy’s) hair hasn’t been the butt of a cotton candy gag before now.
As consolation prize, I will take it as canon that Vasheeva-as-Gina is, indeed, with Bill & Frank & Gypsy back at the main storyline. I’d been speculating as to a shape-shifter or other impostor ’til now.
I will shift my powers of speculation and believe (for the moment) that this is yet another Gnome assigned to Vasheeva. Given the monumental events in play, I’d think each of the main players require their own observation team.
While I accept that Gnomes can teleport to places (as has been demonstrated already), I think flicking between time itself would be an exceptionally rare and difficult magic, if it exists at all. Merely Seeing across time is already messy and dangerous enough. For Gnomes to have the power to physically shift through time (at least in ant casual sense) … the structure of the entire Billverse wouldn’t really make any sense the way events are playing out.
Not to look a gift gnome in the mouth, but weren’t we supposed to have a new Legend of Bill today?
This made me laugh.
Armando, I REALLY LIKE both your artistic style and your sense of humor.
