It looks like she just pops together like a jigsaw puzzle. :mowdizzy
I'm still surprised Dan is taking this so well.
And, Ah, the glowing yellow eyes are behind the regular, that why we didn't see them in the crate.
....and did she just sew herself back together? Reminds me of Nightmare Before Christmas
In the first panel... I can almost see Alucard's grin. And her right "eye" looks awesome. Hurray for the Undead! >:]
I guess thats why she had her hair in the style, so her skull wouldn't show through, and the ring on her fingers to hide the stiches.
I never saw her tail, is it a fluffy bunny tail or a more Mabesque fluff?

And Dark Pegasus hates the undead? Strange, being that he's come back 3 times since now...maybe things have changed.

This is a flashback. Chances are he hasn't died once yet.

We don't know that. If we take Dan's dialogue during the DvP arc at face value, Pegasus was defeated twice before, but only killed once. (Becoming a total of three times and twice once that arc ended).
I noticed the finger before but the undeadness never clicked till this moment. Damnit. I do love her hair though.
I love the 'Grind...Grind...' in the third panel XD and how well Hannah is taking this, minus the slight distress over the loss of her tail (seriously, who takes a tail?)
On another note, thank you Amber for updating earlier :-3 usually I have to wait 'til 11/12pm my time, now only about 9pm, which means I can get my dose of DMFA without staying up too late XD
Reassemble, Stephanie! Reassemble!
So it appears Undead flesh is capable of somehow rejoining when severed...it leaves a mark, but it doesn't involve stitches. (And anyway, what kind of way is stitches to reattach limbs? It's hardly sturdy, and the bones would still be flopping around beneath!)
It's rather curious for an undead to look so scar-free while being a warrior for so long

my theory is that he stays alive by something more powerful than an undead curse. remember that you need to be attacked by an undead before dying, so unless he was attacked few days before being killed any of the times he's technically not an undead. And as Amber said already, the chance for an average undead to effectively attack a demon is slim.

Apologies >->
No problem. It's just derivative and boring and bland.
....For a second, I thought Hannah meant she was a Death Knight. Then I re-read and figured out that I'm a bit of a doofus.
And by the way...
BEST. COMIC. EVER. Even better than Aliyka's pretty expression in the first panel of the last one. Yay undead regenerators!

She is not regenerating.. >:3 She is recombinating. :P
She is undead, partially disassembled... and still so beautiful. Is there anything Amber can't turn into something completely desirable?
How the heck, I say? I mean, the comic is great and all, and this is a really nice turn that also explains her eyes from before. But to re-assemble just like that? Is there something you haven't been telling us, Amber?

It worked for Voltron, it'll work for Hannah! :P (Hooray for odd logic!) (Besides: Magic! :eager)
Looking closely at the image, I think this also sort of answers the mystery surrounding Hannah's middle finger - specifically, why it seems paler than her other digits. There's some stitching around the joint of her finger, indicating that the finger had been reattached. I guess Hannah either put her finger back when she was reassembling her body, or had misplaced it at some point a long time ago, explaining its pallid coloration.
Either way, this is a really awesome scene. Hannah looks awesome in the second and third panel. Plus we've learned something about Dark Pegasus. I'm rather interested in his loathing of the Undead race...
~Keaton the Black Jackal
When I saw this, my mind immediately went to the "The Man That Was Used Up", a story by Edgar Allan Poe (http://xroads.virginia.edu/~hyper/POE/used_up.html). I found a link to it and thought you might find it interesting.
Having read Amber's rant, I can only say "Say it isn't so". Your loyal readers will defy time itself on your behalf.
By the way, Amber, I was also thinking of something else
Please forgive us
For each time we have said or done mean things for no good reason
For each time time tha our selfishness has made us forget the needs of others
For forgetting we are all part of one family
For those and for so many things big and small that make it seem we are separate
Hmm... Maybe Dark P is undead, and he hates the Undead race for making him what he is?

*Charline :shifty * I wasn't gonna say it... really... But look at my new lucky rabbit's foot! *dangles Hanna's leg from a keychain* >:3
*Charles also pops in to note* Ooooo... I am going to enslave Amber to draw a Hollow-form Charline! :eager
Hmm, That must not be fun..At least shes around again
That bit with the fluffy tail is not surprising. I mean, we already know she appreciates warm and fluffy things. :3
Side-quest! The quest for... THE FLUFFY TAIL!
Or the magical energy just holds the bones together when they get close. Kind of a magnet I suppose you could say. :p
I for one find the whole strip awesome. Just the way she can stand there grinding body parts together and popping them back on without even skipping a beat in the dialogue is great. :boogie
By the way, I have just noticed that priceless expression on Dannie's face in the first panel. I'm surprised no-one has commented on it yet.
For an undead with parts missing, she still looks fairly cute and cuddly.
Quote from: Jack McSlay on May 19, 2008, 05:04:10 PMIt's rather curious for an undead to look so scar-free while being a warrior for so long
Well, she
is missing a good bit of her face. As for the lack of scars, maybe she's either a really good warrior, or she hasn't done much close-quarters combat.
With part of the face missing and the glowing eye, my first thought was "Oh snap! She's looking for Sarah Connor!"

I noticed it, theres just others things that are more fun, like who would cut someones tail off? I can understand the other bits being lost in the initial takedown and the straaping with decapitation, but why would you go out of your way for a tail. ...I think DP might have some really weird issues....
Speaking of issues, is Dan ever taking off the dress? :<
Lovely, the world can always need a few more undead.
Dan is gonna get some tail?
so the damage at death remains but does damage of an undead repair itself as long as they get the parts back like when they get a gash they keep it or if something extreme happens to a body part is it beyond saving.
I thought it yesterday and I'll say it today.
Bweeeee! Undead! :mowhappy
As for why she's missing her tail, it would make sense that an undead soul would lie in the fluffiest, cutest part. /speculation
Undead And You:
When it comes to taking a licking and keeping on ticking...the Undead can be quite the adversary. Mainly because even with limbs knocked off, an Undead can funtion quite well since they dont have that pesky "ouch" factor. Also, even dis-attached, the Undead's limbs can still function and move if its within a certain distance from the rest of it. Though if it gets too far away from the majority, the body falls inert...though getting back close can re-activate it.
As for re-attaching, the Undead are a magical based creature so when the parts are within their "proper place", they can act and function as if they were there normally...as if they were being held together by magic(which they are) However the bonds are a loooot weaker than the true physical ones so really a good yank (Or a really sharp turn) could remove them again.
The undead cannot heal...but with great magic (and great taxidermy), there are ways for them to re-attach their limbs to either look like their pre-damaged form or advance. Many Undead have taken to simply stripping parts of the limbs off down to the bone and covering the bone that remains with metal.
The fashion trends of the Undead are pretty interesting...but that is a rant for another time.

Her fluffy tail is probably hanging off a DeathKnight like a pair of fuzzy dice.
Why?

It still thinks of itself as pretty from its former life/unlife.

I believe they are not. Hannah says that they may be in even greater danger, and I think she is referring to the possibility of
them becoming Dark P's dinner. >:3
I wonder if this affects the revenge motive? Before, Dan thought she was dead. Now she's basically been smacked up but is mostly okay. If they can rescue the others, fleeing would be back on the table.
Never mind, I misread the response so I'm editing out my earlier reply.
In response to the hating undead thing, he hasn't been defeated before whatsoever as this is Dan's first encounter with Dark Pegasus.

No disassemble Hannah!
Going by what Amber said...
some Undead like to look like knights or golems?
I must say her reaction to Dan's wings is somewhat explained in this episode.
Can't wait for the next episode.
This is probably why Dan is not much affected by the undead... finding an undead attractive can change the view of most people.
she has to be pretty irritated though- it probably took her a long time to get her hair just right and hide her finger, but now shes gotta get a collar and something for her shoulder to hide her new seams.....

I don't think Dan will mind and the others presumably know - being a sisterhood. However Aliyka might end up being even more of a problem than she already has been upon discovering that Hannah is dead.
I wonder where the idea for un-dead amazombies came from?
:mowdizzy
odds are the others will be conveniently located in the next strip doing their own thing. that or we'll continue with Dan in real life, the number of strips before a jumping a scene is getting rather close.
i wonder if dan is friends with those amazons to this day or does he do something stupid at the end of this adventure that leaves things best kept at a distance. :P

Do tell, I want to hear about undead fashion. :3
And I was thinking, what if Hannah was the one to turn Dark Pegasus undead (this is the first incounter, right? So I don't think he's died yet.) She doesn't have to kill him, just bite him in a short time before he first died. Maybe Hannah bites him, and then Dan (and possibly Shanna and Anna) finish him.
I think Dark Pegasus has risen more than once, otherwise their really wouldn't be reason for Dan to say "Stay dead."
well, having extensive knowledge of zombie fashion as it applies to Hollywood, I'd say blood stains and claw marks are a must.

Awe man thats what I was going to say
but It could also explain the dislike of undead
say ages ago DP visited a orical who said that one day He would be bitten and become an undead. thats a good reason to have bad feelings for the undead rtace.
Course I don't think DP is undead he's comming back by other means I'm sure
meh, its probably more of a lich thing- binding his soul to something so he can actually return after being killed, instead of just assembling all his parts..... they probably would have noticed him still squirming when they burried him if he was merely an undead
Quoteof course its lethal, its more of an eventually lethal, though

Obviously it didn't become fluffy until after this whole storyarc. Perhaps DP caused a massive surge of magical energy in an attempt to defeat Dan, which had the unforseen side effect of creating sentience in various, random objects in his lair, which included Hanna's tail.
