    Yep, show you how and leave you to do it. That’s how
    my father taught me how to weld, by time I was 11
    he just told me what to do and would go do something
    else 🙂

    Ah, the final battle is always the fun one…

      Fun?

      You keep using that word.
      I don’t think it means
      what you think it means.

        It always fun until someone looses an eye…
        I learned whether your just sparing or in
        a real fight, never lose your temper, it’s a
        fast way to loose.

        If television medical shows are even remotely accurate,
        in surgery it’s “See one. Do one. Teach one.”
        But Ned can correct me if my recollection is off.

          Bill – You are not wrong – your recollection is spot on.
          TV medical shows skip over so very much.
          TubT – Roger that !
          In Army things, it is the way we were taught to create ‘force multipliers’.
          IF one can do it – two can do more than twice that.
          That and the dictum – You never learn so much as when you teach.
          (Can be good news and bad news . . . . .)

            When you’re teaching, sometimes those being taught will surprise you
            with another way of doing what you are teaching, that works as well, if
            not better, than the way you were taught. Surprisingly, I did that a lot with
            my father. When I was younger, I pretty much did as told. Then, when he
            wasn’t looking, I’d study the situation and if I was pretty sure it wouldn’t
            cause a problem, then I’d try things my way. Surprisingly, more often than
            not, it worked at least as well, if not better. I started doing this after I was
            taught the line, “Work smarter, not harder.”
            Of course, when he caught me doing this, he was pretty ticked off. But,
            after I demonstrated that I was able to do the same job, as well, if not better,
            and with less work, he would scratch his head and tell me to go ahead and
            do it my way. He was old school so he wasn’t to keen on having a kid less
            than a third his age, doing the same job better and faster than he had in the
            past. What made me proud is when he started using what I had taught him,
            himself… I miss my dad…

    I wonder if she’ll keep that scar. Looks like he’s wielding a K-Bar, or
    a knockoff. Depending on where she is in her jump, he may be
    about to land a cut to her leg.

      He’s already lost, he’s holding that knife edge down,
      tip up. he can only slash down or stab, Mala is holding
      hers right, that’s why she’s smiling so much. That and
      she loves a good fight.

        I was thinking the same thing.
        Could do a wide slash left to right,
        but no room or time to set it up.
        Edge up would be better but still second best.

          Oh sure, it’d be worry-some if he had his arm drawn
          to the side, but he’s using it like a shield, hoping it’ll
          make her wary of it, dumb… I forget how many times
          I’d slap a knife aside and grab a throat when some
          ass thought it would scare me. Those types I’d take
          the knife and break off the blade. They didn’t
          deserve one.

        Good grief! First thing I was taught in fighting using knives was to hold the
        flat of the blade parallel to the ground! You can always redirect your slashes
        in mid swing, block the edge of their blade with the flat of yours, and hit weak
        points of your opponent when provided.
        I could go into details, but that might be seen as inciting violence.
        Let’s just say, I have a few scars, but am still very much alive.

      I assume she knows what she’s doing,
      but his blade is awfully close to her femoral artery.
      I know, horseshoes and hand grenades (or H-bombs).

        I’m sure Mala knows Teresa is keeping tabs on her,
        and would heal anything life-threatening if need be.
        Just so it would just need a few stitches rather than
        a fatal one.

          IF she can get there in time! You have to remember the action with Mala
          and the Marines is taking place several miles away from where Teresa
          currently is. Plus Teresa is in a bunker apparently deep underground. It
          could take a whole lot of time to get her topside and transport her to
          where Mala and the Marines. Might not be time. I’m wondering if Catman
          is going to pull a Tasha Yar on us. Anyhow we’ll know in 24 hours. Talk
          about edge of your seat action!

            If Teresa is watching, like I’m sure many of us assume, distance is probably not
            an issue. She can heal remotely now, and has been practicing ever since episode
            456. She was miles away when she healed everyone in episodes 446-451.

    If he can kick her leg while she is in the air,
    she could have a problem.
    She would be knocked off balance.
    If she falls straight down they are both dead.
    She falls on his knife and she stabs him.
    If he continues his roll to his left she could get him
    before he can roll back.
    Interesting great job Mr. Cat

      She’s about to kick his knife hand clear, maybe disarming him
      in the process. When she lands it’ll be on top of him, ready
      to slash his throat.
      PC is showing a good scenario that I had to deal with a time
      or two. I do miss being that agile… Or that fast.

    Mala playing with her new chew toy,
    taking out her anger at those that
    would harm her Empress.
    I’m sure she remembers that the
    chew toy bites back.

    So glad to see the latest installment up. I stuck my head in about 19:30
    central last evening and the previous installment was still up. I was just
    a bit concerned about PC. I used to wait until Tuesday, Thursday and
    Saturday to look in but lately I’ve gotten in the habit of looking in here on
    Monday, Wednesday, and Friday after 19:00 local. A new installment of
    TGW means all is right with the world.

      20:00 for PC is 5 pm west coast time. I usually try to look
      in about 5:01 when possible (I’m opportunistic, so sue me).
      Wasn’t up by 5:15, so I checked again about a half hour later.
      still not up. But it was there by 6pm when I checked again.
      All became right with the world again.

          I may be off in my times.
          At that particular range of time on my timesheet
          I show a large section of “me” time. So, eh,
          “somewhere in there it showed up”
          is really the best I can attest too.

          Some web site providers are slow to update any changes
          or uploads. I’ve had to start hitting refresh when I don’t
          see an update at the normal time for some of the other
          comics I read.

    If anyone is reading the comic and NOT going to TWC and voting
    please do. I was shocked to see how far down TGW was. From
    consistently being in the top 10 it is now not even in the top 20!
    Please go vote. If you register for a login, you can vote twice,
    once anonymously and once logged in.
    If you enjoy PC’s stories, please go to TWC and vote! I’m not
    sure what benefit PC reaps from the ranking at TWC but he cannot
    be getting much from being in 29th place.

      Yeah, something’s going on. I’m in the middle of one of the most popular storylines ever, and
      the vote totals are dropping compared to previous months.
      Well, a new top story will start on Monday that I think will be equally popular, so we’ll see
      what happens.
      But to be in the top ten for over three years, only to be suddenly kicked out by a bunch of
      previously obscure comics that are suddenly getting massive numbers of votes is a bit
      hard to believe.

        I saw that. TGW started out well, then the first “votes” hit, and it
        dropped to 19 or so. I call BULL! Then yesterday, a crapload of
        obscure unknown comics get granted a few thousand “votes” each,
        and TGW drops into the 30s. Double BULL!!

        The voting at TWC is less believable than the 2020 US presidential
        election, which was the most blatantly fraudulent election in history.

          nope,, it’s doing just as told…! i have a bit of OCD. and have been
          tracking twc since 2015 (10 years.) and have seen the 8 revamps,.
          it started “New comics” get top 10 for a month then move on.. then
          voted get spot,, but that was quickly hacked,. now it’s the top 5
          are old comics, with bought ads, to get new face time.. 6-10 are
          established with adds (and bots).. idk why 11 is there,? it’s all
          text, no comic.! ..now ours.. i know of 3 comics that made #1,.
          and stayed there a while,,, but because they never bought ads..
          they got dropped.!! even 1 comic got 60 new readers in 1 month,
          still dropped 2 spaces over all… o.0

            a low vote comic, in about 4 hours got over 12k votes.!!
            when all but 3 or 4 get less than 10k votes in a MONTH.!
