Snapping the book closed, she dives.
Nora looks up from behind the booth.
NORA

Rubi!
Spotting the SpelLA booth, and the girls behind it, Rubi lands (not very) gracefully beside them.
RUBI
I’m so glad you guys are safe!
The girls embrace.
RUBI
So, you aren’t going to like this, but…
A building across the way is smashed into by the creature’s dumb head.
RUBI
I’ve gotta kill it.

RUBI
I’ve gotta kill it.
Yeah, some how, don’t believe they will object to that Rubi 😛
When a flying snake monster is trashing the place and eating people, killing it quickly starts to seem like an entirely reasonable response.
haha well sure
I think the objection she’s anticipating wasn’t to “kill it,” but to “I.”
So I have to say that for the past several pages, your artistic device of putting a brightly colored border around cursed characters and creatures and then giving us the “Rubi’s -Eye Point of View” on how she can see this now based on her potion, is very effective, in my opinion. The brilliant red border around Rubi works especially well with her character, her style, and the overall color scheme of the comic, and it reminds us in every panel that Rubi remains “permanently cursed” — a defining trait of her character. Something like this can only really be done this well and seamlessly in a comic like this. Nice!
Thanks man!
Maybe she means “kill it” in a figurative sense. You know, she’s got to get in there and do a really super good job. Or maybe put together a really smashing outfit before she fights the snake.
lololololol
