Wonder wig sounds like a super hero that got their powers from a special combination of radiation and chemo treatments. A cancer survivor who uses their powers to save others after learning the value of life.
^ I like that origin and sort of quest in life. Wig/Anthony was born bald until a magical wig leaped out at him at an antique shop owned by a fortune teller.
It’s okay if they know it’s not your real hair, as long as they don’t know what your real hair looks like. Everyone knows Batman doesn’t really have pointy bat ears, but they still keep people from knowing his true hair color/style.
She doesn’t have to be rich. After all, Barbara Gordon could afford one on the 60’s TV show. Then again, she somehow managed to make part of her apartment wall rotate around to hide her costume.
See, and this is why she shouldn’t even bother to try to disguise her voice/hair more. With Danny’s level of clueless, it’s not needed. If anything, it’s MORE likely to attract his attention the more you try.
“I just want to tell you that I’m married, not hungry, infected with seven unknown diseases, gay, pregnant with lizards and clinically dead. So you should totally forget about dating me and go after any hot gamer chicks you might happen to know.”
If you like horrible things (and I mean that in a good way, with love) then you MUST read Transmetropolitan. It’s philosophy and human kindness meets poop jokes and rage!
High brow and lowest common denominator all rolled into one.
I just realized something. If this Amazi-Girl’s color scheme is reversed then maybe she isn’t immune to criticism like her Shortpacked doppleganger. Not that Danny is criticizing her on purpose, but his attention to detail certainly has her off guard.
Also, DoA Amazi-Girl hasn’t gone through the story arc yet where she gets a new costume that turns out to be a sentient parasitic alien. SP! Amazi-Girl has.
Isn’t it more likely that she is trying to make herself as amazigirl less attractive so that he will give up on amazigirl and go after her real persona?
Amazi-girl, this guy likes you for *being* you. Not for being a superhero, not for having a raspy voice, and not for wearing a cos- um, not for hanging out on roof tops. You can just come down and talk to him. Just don’t reveal your identity because you will scare him off if you don’t seem unattainable.
Unfortunately the mind trick only works if the target has a mind with little or no defenses. This one is strong with its high super high density that even reality and self preservation sense have little effect.
Ed Wood used a mixture of footage recorded of Bela Lugosi shortly before his death and new footage of his wife’s chiropractor dressed in the same outfit, but covering his face so no one would be able to tell that it wasn’t the same actor.
Its a reference to Plan 9 From Outer Space. Bela Lugosi died before finishing his scenes so Ed Wood got his wife’s chiropractor to stand in by holding his cape in front of his face.

Christan Bale would be proud.
RASPY BATMAN
I call your Christian Bale, and raise you Dani Pudi
ultra car is batman now.
So we’re out of Amazi-Girl Begins and into The Dark Campus Guardian.
The Dark Campus Guardian sounds like an awesome name for a campus newspaper.
It’s the paper Indiana U deserves, but not the one it needs right now.
I eagerly await to see how the trilogy ends the following summer (so in five to ten years from now).
BECAUSE SHE’S BATMA-……AMAZIGIRL
I guess she can’t afford a wig.
Buying a wig on a student’s income? Who do you think she is, Bruce Wayne?
Doesn’t have to be a GOOD wig. You can get a number of shitty ones at costume shops that, from a distance, should do well.
Sadly my wig is not for sale to her.
I just imagined Amazi-girl comics featuring the amazing Wonder Wig
She can be apart of my cross-over anytime 😉
^as said in character

It adds body and parts itself(lifts and separates)… I have yet again failed to be funny
Your mom parts herself, for a nickle.
Anyone knows that you need a convincing wig or they will know it’s not their real hair.
It’s okay if they know it’s not your real hair, as long as they don’t know what your real hair looks like. Everyone knows Batman doesn’t really have pointy bat ears, but they still keep people from knowing his true hair color/style.
A bad wig is so hard to keep tame though. Especially if you’re being really active.
At least maybe Richie Rich?!?
She doesn’t have to be rich. After all, Barbara Gordon could afford one on the 60’s TV show. Then again, she somehow managed to make part of her apartment wall rotate around to hide her costume.
She’s the daughter of a commissioner and also a librarian in her own right.
Librarians are extra skilled regarding bookshelves, after all.
As a librarian I can confirm this. The first year of university is training us for the job, the rest of the time is book shelf training.
You don’t need a wig when dinosaur hat hair can easily conseal you secret identy form the public.
Clearly Sal can. That’s just her real hair.
Magnificent.
She pronounced ‘window’ as ‘winder,’ like with a southern accent. Clearly Sal is Amazi-girl.
Hehe, I hadn’t though of that… nice.
“Amazi-girl is going through a little identitity crisis, ok!? I’m thinking about buying a sports car…”
“Also, my wife just died mysteriously and we’re trying to solve the murder before other hero’s loved ones are endangered.”
C’mon, Danny, connect the dots. This shouldn’t be that difficult. You’re a smar–er, reasonably intelli–well, not a complete dumba–
Oh, never mind.
Well at least he’s good with the lad- well he dated Dorothy and that turned out we- er…he got with Bil-…Amber really li-
…why do we like Danny again?
Schadenfreude.
Everyone loves a good car wreck …. as long as its nobody they know/like and little actual blood and vital bodily fluids spilled.
… we like Danny??
See, and this is why she shouldn’t even bother to try to disguise her voice/hair more. With Danny’s level of clueless, it’s not needed. If anything, it’s MORE likely to attract his attention the more you try.
Not the brightest bulb in the box, are ya, Danny?
Very smart in terms of academics. Very dense when it comes to relationships or potential relationships.
I can’t help but wonder how much Amazi-girl saw of his attempts to get his ass handed to him.
“I’m gonna watch this for another 10 minutes before I decide to jump down”
Yeah, you’d think he’d recognize his own roommate
“I just want to tell you that I’m married, not hungry, infected with seven unknown diseases, gay, pregnant with lizards and clinically dead. So you should totally forget about dating me and go after any hot gamer chicks you might happen to know.”
Bonus points for getting the reference.
I just googled that and Transmetropolitan sounds like the greatest thing ever. So thanks.
It totally is. Everyone should read it at least once. The hundreds of easter eggs in the artwork alone are worth the price of admission.
If you like horrible things (and I mean that in a good way, with love) then you MUST read Transmetropolitan. It’s philosophy and human kindness meets poop jokes and rage!

She has yet to reach her full potential. She’s still looking at the holographic crystals her mother sent her from her doomed planet
Also, DoA Amazi-Girl hasn’t gone through the story arc yet where she gets a new costume that turns out to be a sentient parasitic alien. SP! Amazi-Girl has.
I know it’s changed her appearance quite a bit, but I wouldn’t call Mike’s baby a “costume.”
Despite not having read superhero comics for 15-odd years, I can identify the references you’re making. That feels comforting.
*Ding* Björn wins a No-Prize!
@Usayasha: (It’s a Spiderman reference.)

IMBATMAN
No.
IMAHBATMAN.WOOHOO!

All of this Batman stuff demands this…

You will all hate me!
Smooth, Sal. Real smooth.
This installment is David Willis’ finest Batman parody to date.
Isn’t it more likely that she is trying to make herself as amazigirl less attractive so that he will give up on amazigirl and go after her real persona?

I’m pretty sure she’s merely trying to disguise her “amber-ness” now that she knows he’s actively seeking out amazigirl.
Or trying to turn him off of amazigirl
Is she trying the Jedi mind trick in the last panel, or is it just me?
Unfortunately the mind trick only works if the target has a mind with little or no defenses. This one is strong with its high super high density that even reality and self preservation sense have little effect.
Amazi-girl is immune to bed-head. Which as it turns out is a very different kind of head.
So, is Amazigirl being portrayed by Maggie’s chiropractor?
…what?

That right there is why I love being a geek.
Plan 9 From Outer Space is the best example of a film that’s flawed from the ground up, followed closely by The Room.
“You do not remember correctly.”
“I do not remember cor- Hey, this is just like the Jedi mind trick!”
“This is not like the Jedi mind trick.”
“This is not like the Jedi mind trick.”
Bonus points for reference.
Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths?
Crisis on Two Earths! I love that movie.
The batman theme sounds in my head when I saw this strip
“Dun dun dun duuuuuun dun”
Me too, but it was the one that goes dun, dun, D’DAN
I hope I’m wrong, but my gut says the Amazi-Girl saga will not end will.
Imagine this scene with V instead of Amazi-gurl.
ROFL XD
Why not try to sound the same, it work for Adam West.
I’ve finally got it.
AMAZI-GIRL IS BELA LUGOSI.
Huh. I read that in Mojo-Jojo’s syntax/accent this time through.
