Description I'm not sure if this was really obvious, or this will be a surprise. I tried to make sure what she said wasn't too positive or negative, I wanted her to sound like she hadn't really considered there was a choice.

It was tempting to have a whole chapter or more with Annie with her natural body, but that would also mean her with no powers, and this was her first fight in a while considering when her suit was hacked. I think the story needs more stability before I should start shaking things up.

So just making this an event that brings up the idea that something could trigger her back seemed like a better fit for now.

So I'll probably save a story about low-power Annie for sometime later.

I also made some color changes to pages 109, 112 & 113, 121. Added shading to pages 110 and 130, and flipped the last panel horizontally on page 128.

So is this new character a B class or is the degree of what she can reset up there with the A's?

I think any "A" is probably impossibly powerful. Like something crazy. She's probably a "B", but maybe an "E" if her powers aren't useful in combat. She might not be able to control what is reset and what isn't, and that might complicate her trying to get involved.

A superhero who seems to specialize in fixing all the collateral damage caused by the *other* super-powered individuals... I'd assume that her talents are very much in demand. ^_^;;

Looks like her new nick name is gonna be 'Buttons' as in RESET Button! xD

Glad to see she'll get her endowments back, but honestly would have liked to have seen her go at least a few more pages "without" them. Just so she could get a nights sleep... lol

I'm thinking her nickname is RESET, seems like the kind of name you give someone who can literally undo events.

Of course a name like that might be a little too on the nose.

That's why I suggested 'Buttons'. 'Cause she'll be pushing them... Every one of them... o.o' LOL

I hadn't realized that she'd gained hip/booty mass as well, or is the outline just supposed to be describing her shape? And you'd probably already considered it, but the "au naturel" story could contain more gradual BE as she "recharges," right?

I'm also interested to see what that reset does to the shapeshifter, as well...

I at least intended that she filled out a little in several places, but most noticeably her hips, rear, and chest. Kind of like she gained weight in the ideal places. But I think that besides her chest, the other changes were not obvious enough, either there wasn't enough of a difference, or I just didn't bring enough attention to the changes.

I tried to show the difference also on this page- [link] from last fall. I figure her rib cage also is slightly bigger around, like it made her a little more curvy.

In the original Pulse, Annie was stick-thin and just grew larger breasts. Although over time I drew her more curvy (and all women as my style changed). But in the story she didn't change, it was just the way I drew her. In this one I thought I'd try to make it so that more than just her chest grew. Originally I had planned to make her either under-developed or super thin to make the process more obvious, but I decided that I should make her healthy looking. That she would have to met certain physical standards to be part of a superhero program.

I think that there would be a lot of interest in a slow change, although I'd have to come up with a way for it to have a purpose. Maybe a villain who takes away powers and they return slowly.

Ah, I hadn't noticed it. Or maybe I just thought it was the clothes. Is she just gaining mass in the other areas, or muscle as well? It might make it a little clearer if she had some tone.

And I remember that about the original Pulse, too. That makes sense about the physical requirement.

Please don't let her think about this! Please oh Pleeeeeeeze don't let her think about this! Great work (as always) sir!

Well, she might think about it and decide to go along with it. Although while she might get a choice eventually, she doesn't have a choice now.

Whether she thinks or not is kinda beside the point, she's changing and she's changing now.
