Hooray for wall breaking fights, also for a growing Shanna. And they've broken out so they can have a monster fight without walls in the way.
Never realized Aliyka's wings didn't grow.
...and Dans still wearing a dress...
On a side note, Shanna did lose her final piece of clothing.
EDIT: Also, tiny phoenix wings!

I was kinda hoping to see a fight without her transforming but this makes more sense.
On seeing that, I thought "Well, there goes her skirt!".
Also is it just me or does Aliyka's expression seem to have shifted from rage to desperation?
Aaannd there goes the skirt.... :rolleyes
Not surprising, really. :P

HOLY....!! Wow, I did not realize that Shanna was a dragon. Did any of you all know that Shanna was a dragon? 'Cause, really, I can't get over the fact that SHANNA IS A FRIKIN' DRAGON!!!

Mine's on Being, actually. 'Cause really, she's always seemed the most being-like of them all.
I thought that beings and creatures are different things, and therefore Being isn't really a type of creature, so it's auto ruled out. In any case, my vote is on were.
Anna's a livestock!
Not all giant reptilians are dragons. I'm sticking with mythos for Shanna regardless of size (assuming they have many possible forms, like Hennya, Matilda, Dan's captors).
Aliyka is still enraged but now has a change of focus, changing the flavor of that rage.
Building tip... make your castle/dungeon/whatever with break-away walls so that the rest of the structure will better survive damage when a wall is broken out. Near my high school (a few miles away) there was a lab that had a break-away wall to save the rest of the structure when they had accidental explosions.

aww i wanted to say Were. still she could be a cubi if not for the box negating creature abilities. i thik that would have forced her back to normal. if she were a cubi

Wait... Is it normal to like someone who is several feet taller than you and can probably snap you like a twig?
Well... I'm personally gonna go with, there's something planty about pod puppy.
Now dragon, I was not expecting. =3
It is obvious that Anna is in fact a pygmy shrew.
... KAIJU BATTLE!!!... now we just need a Tokyo battle arena...
*cough* anyways... if I had to guess... Anna would beeee.... Were
Also Aliyka's wings in that form reminds me of Lorenda...
Goddammit shanna I already said I loved you what more do you want!!
She just keeps getting more and more awesome...er D':
That is surprising. Though if she really is a dragon, it raises interesting questions. Dan's dislike for them, for example, or that unless she is a very, very young dragon, she is liable to work out or guess what Dan is and possibly even his clan affiliation...

List!
I'd have to say Were for Anna :3 seems the most likely at this point.
Also, I don't think Shanna is a dragon (if she is, I'm dumb, but w/e) since her eyes didn't do what Pyroduck's did, which was become slitted, and she didn't have wings, though they might not be necessessary (or however you spell that.)
Now that I've said all this, she's gonna be a dragon...although my first thought upon reading the comic was 'DINOSAUR!' <3

Also, I like how some of Hannah's hair is messed up and her skull is showing in the first panel :3
Holy sh!t, that's awesome.. :eek I kind of expected Shanna to have a "Second Stage" form, but I didn't expect her to be a dragon. Dragons are always cool in my book. I think I'll be walking around with a stupid happy smile till the end of the day. :) *walks off with a stupid happy smile on his face*

given that this is A) a flashback, and B) Dan is likely to be in his teens, and thus not showing his Incubi heritage just yet. She is unlikely to find out his cubi leanings until post- SAIA arc.

I still say that if she was a full-fledged, multi-million-year-old dragon, Dan being in his teens is unlikely to be much of a barrier. We'll find out later, I guess, but personally I'm not convinced she's a dragon.

Right, just like you're not completely convinced that Ink's an Incubus? >:3
And besides, the problem is not with Dan as a cubi, it's with Dan as a cubi from the Cyra clan. We don't know much about Cyra except that they seem harder to detect than most cubi. Which may not be a coincidence.
I have a theory that Shanna is a half-dragon. She is still young, she knows nothing about what's going on between the dragons and the Cubi, but she has inherited the ability to transform into a dragon. Also, I have a theory that Shanna and Aliyka will accidentally subdue Darth Pegasus during their fight.

Hmmm, me thinks they might accidentally almost roll over DP, followed by one of his monologues, which changes their targets from each other to him.
Or he might just get smooshed.

Forgetting - for the sake of argument - that you've more-or-less confirmed it (double-bluff notwithstanding), I had put about 95% on him being an incubus. Remember that he's a cameo, and cameos are not always the same race as in their original setting. Depends on the author, storyline and so forth.
So my thinking was that until we saw the headwings, there's still that remaining 5%. He could have been another Thae'lith or some other winged race I don't know about, after all.

I'd buy that, but if they subdue DP instead of Dan, Dan wouldn't have got his fame. Now, DP trying to
hire them...

I don't know if this is really the place to discuss this, but that threw me off was that the headwings appear to be in a different place on his head compared to the other 'Cubi we've seen in-strip. They are also lacking the dark primaries so I assumed they were part of his hair... :footinmouth

Granted. Interestingly, someone once claimed that the Dragons sparked the Clan wars to try and eradicate the 'Cubi race. But we don't have anything concrete to back that up with. If true, it could mean that Cyra's clan are trying to return the favour.
And now I can use what I was hoping to use when this all started:

For those unsure of Shanna's being a dragon or not, if you look behind the manical laughter there, she has wings. Even if they are still mostly inside the building. Yet another good sign that she is.

In that case, she probably is a dragon.
**EDIT**
I wonder how Fi will react to that? He/she/it went completely frantic when Pyroduck was outed:
http://missmab.com/Comics/Vol_698.php
Oh my god. Giant monster fight. This comic is awesome.
Everybody already thinks Anna is a were....so I'm going for Angel or Fae.
Dude...
Every time I see a dragon in this comic, it goes up another awesomeness point. :3
Also, I believe Shannah is a dragon, not a mythos. Recall that dragons do have the ability to shape-shift into something smaller and Being-like. Whereas I haven't seen a mythos yet display that ability. Yes, I know that doesn't mean that some out there don't, but dragon seems the more obvious choice...
For us non-conspiracy theorists anyway. :P
I want a better look at all of Shanna in all her glory! Have we actually seen a full picture of a dragon in comic that isn't half in and half out of a panel?

1/4 to 1/3 out of panel. (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_683.php)

You know, when Pyroduck was a full dragon he didn't have his clothes on. And when he changed back his clothes came back as well. So I don't think Shanna has lost her skirt just yet. We just can't see it because clothes disappear when a dragon goes full sized.
I see the wingies, now that they were pointed out. :3 Shanna is officially my second favorite character in the comic.(first being a tie between Abel & Dan. x3) Whether it's my insane love for blue things or herps, or just her shear awesomeness in general..who knows. She's great, though. :3
As for Anna? My first thought was Were..but there was the last panel in this comic (http://missmab.com/Demo/HG03.php) that threw me off. So I'm gonna go out on a limb, here, and guess Angel. I'm sure if she was Fae, she could have easily taken on Aliyka. I guess we shall know soon enough, though. :boogie

Oh and lets not forget that there are thousands of diffrent variations of dragons (like Mythos). The few things most dragons have in common are horns (or spikes) and scales.
I erased the ones that seemed least likely. Is she wearing anything that could be a patch? Maybe her ponytail holder or eyebrow ring (she's wearing one, yea?). If not, I'd say cubi or were, definitely.

I'd say Shan-a, because then it'd rhyme with "Hannah" and "Anna." I detect a pattern. :3

8) Of course, creatures come in varying shapes and sizes. For example, Pyroduck was a dragon ...
I'm not sure I ever caught in the discussions what species his being form is (I recall lots of discussion but not a final answer).

I was more going with what I thought most likely if she was wearing a patch or some other magic to change her form.
QuoteMaybe her ponytail holder or eyebrow ring (she's wearing one, yea?).
Would patches work if they're only around a bundle of hair? I'd half expect that they'd need contact or near-contact with skin/bone/horn.
Who else does patches besides Jyrras? If they knew him well enough to get a patch, then they should've recognized Dan on the spot.

Jyrras is probably still developing the patches back at this point. However, concealment charms have been around for centuries, more likely millennia. Remember Kria's Creature-To-Being amulet.

Screw you, 9.9 judge! That was the BEST FIGHT SCENE EVER! WHOO! :boogie

But that's an amulet, not a patch. If folks are going to start discussing patches, so far it begins and ends with Jyrras.

IIRC Dan is around 16 here. That makes Jyrras twelve. I think it would be a little early for him to have brought the patches to market.
**EDIT**
May have been 18, actually, which would still make Jy 14.

Which more than likely puts a big NO to a patch.

KITTY KONG VS. SHAN-ZILLA!

I vote for were.
Mostly because of elimination using a large number of reasons that would bore you or could easily be thought of yourself.
Yes this time I'm being nice to you. :rolleyes

He may have been inventing that early, but his foray into patches involves both technology (of some sort)
and magic, which I think is fairly recent, lets say only the last few years or less. Patches in particular are just the last year I think (since the beginning of the comic), though he could have been working on the idea for years.
Are they falling out of the building, or are those just tiny wall specks? Or both?
Either way, I'm curious as to how in the world this fight's gonna end. They both appear quite determined to kill the other.
Personally, I hope for a convenient plot twist which results in them both coming out of it alive.
Hmm I had thought it to be a wall they crush through
but you have a point that it seems pretty dark where they are going to.
Maybe they make a convenient short cut for the others to Dark Pegasuses layer.
He loves dark places. [Vol149] (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_149.php) :mwaha
It would also allow both to stay alive and save face by fighting him together.
On a side note .. I think Shannia just lost her last pieces of clothing. :erk

Dan is 20 in this flashback, 1 year older than Aliyka.
Quote from: Amber Williams on May 07, 2008, 08:55:04 PM
This flashback is set approximately about 5 years in the past. You'd be amazed how much a person can change between being 19 years old and 24.

Ta, Anders, that's the one. Though I still say that patches haven't been invented yet.

That still leaves Jyrras at 16. How long has he been dealing with patches? Azlan's had his for the whole comic, so I'm guessing for awhile, but "awhile" could be 2 years.

I suspect that will be the case, seeing as how they are all on the same side, and we know Aliyka is still alive in the current comic time. Somehow, I have difficulty seeing a giant kitty actually beating and killing a dragon amazon.
8) Remember, flashbacks are not 100 % accurate. I mean, in one flashback Jyrass had, he described Dan as one of the most intelligent beings he had met ...

Sometimes intelligence is not measured in book smarts but dealing with situations.
Dan was able to deal with the 'screaming banshee horde,' get Jyrras to cheer up and get Jyrras some confidence all in the same day.
By that Dan could seem like a genius at the time.
The vote on patches, I'm guessing that they were in the R&D department.
After Jyrras met Dan he met Dan's life long friend Mab and the idea of patches soon became a reality.
8) Does Mab, help in part, in the making of the patches ?

Big kitty is...
A Neko-Kitty! Neko neko neko kitty! Itty winged necko kitty! Big and nasty neko kitty! :catgirl :wiggle
From what I've been told recently that would be literally translated "A Kitty-Kitty! Kitty kitty kitty kitty! Itty winged kitty kitty! Big and nasty kitty kitty!" (actually that would be cat, not kitty, but close enough).
