The narration captions are amusing today. In this comic, “meanwhile in a chandelier over the main atrium.” Sword on Monster has “meanwhile, below the Temple of Astraelos.” These should probably be the comic titles in an archive.
Hey is that Ultima that Dynamode is talking to? If so, he’ll probably go easy on Moonshadow as he has been saved by him before and likely thinks that he is just a meta kid who came to the party.
Oh, yeah. That’s right.
Sigh. One thing about webcomics is that they stretch out so long that you tend to forget details. :-/ Can’t really blame the medium for it, though.
If Sarah is only pretending to have lost her powers, why join the depowered meta therapy group? Was it part of whatever deal she has with P&G from the very beginning?

Theory: Sarah Bartlett wasn’t mind-controlled into morphing into a form without superpowers; her mind was transferred into someone without superpowers.
Problem: Would the mind switch produce similar signals to Cecil?
Dynamode is Sarah – with new powers from P&G. Which means an older body when she activates her new powers. But she only keeps to keep her new powers if she kidnaps Tyler for P&G. So right now Dynamode needs to find and secure Tyler, so she can deliver him to P&G.
Right there with you, I called dynamode/Sarah being all Shazam/Billy Batson or Donald Blake/Thor a while ago. She even ran off to find a phone booth (man this phone booth smell bad). I personally hope Tyler does not get meta’d, he is a unique and compelling character as is!
Also huge props for the Radioactive Man callout. Up and AT THEM!
From what we’ve seen efforts to change Tyler are actively resisted by the universe. He’s been subjected to dozens of super-empowering events by his thoughtless parents and all of them failed, they also failed to kill him as many of them should have so somehow, in some fashion the PS238-verse NEEDS Tyler to remain as he is. Which explains why when his clone tried giving him powers it caused an imbalance so great it would have destroyed the Earth if Toby hadn’t undone it.
You notice that she shows up at P&G’s as Dynamode. So the size change isn’t due to anything THEY do. I think, she’s trapped in TWO forms, but didn’t want to bring that up at the meeting. So at six o’clock (notice her panic at finding out it was five forty-five.) “Sarah” turns into “Dynamode.”

As soon as I saw that exclamation mark, the Metal Gear sound played in my head.

I’m torn between making a Psychonauts comment and a Metal Gear comment…send help.

Exclamation point! Goggles have the very popular and useful “You’ve Been Made” attachment.

…. did anyone else, upon seeing the (!) in the last frame, hear the Metal Gear “Alert” sound …? 😀

I want to see the writing in the word boxes. I’m a details nerd.
TheGalator
You like details? Alright, try and decode prospero’s alien font, I guarantee you will find some funny dialogue.

How did she spot them? Tracking device? Superpower?
Faust
Maybe the wrist tracker?

Oh, yeah. That’s right.

They’re tiny and hiding in the light fixture. What are the odds Sarah and others chalk up the signal as an error?
Nobody
Presumably it would be more “Searching whatever floor is above the Atrium”.
Faust
Or they might be checking the guest list for invisible flyers.
Joey
A clone whom he was once unknowingly possessing while actually in statis to save the world from an alien virus.
Like, if we’re gonna bring up the weirdness, let’s not scrimp on the details.
HEB807
Is it really possession if Toby didn’t have a brain while Tyler was possessing him? Personally, I think that just adds to the weirdness.

Then the question would be why does she run away right before Dynamode shows up?
