Plenty of people have seen that exact expression before being gored and stomped to death. It’s sort of a dorky look on the actual animal, unless you know what they can do to you. Then it’s terrifying.
Kind of like when a hippo wiggles its ears and gives you a goofy smile? (Pro-tip: If you see a hippo do that, leave the vicinity with extreme haste. It is not trying to entertain you.)
Or they get captured and have to rely on 42 or The Racoon to save their hides
Perhaps 42 told Steffies dad about her “sister” bot and fixed her and she goes out to find 42 who informs her of there predicament and they beat up the bad guys.
This is all wishful thinking though…
In my experience, bulls do REALLY hate cattle prods and the like.
Once at a rodeo, as usual, the cowboy fell and the rodeo clowns were doing their thing to lure the bull away. Well, just a single clown, who was almost talking down the thing and taking it away from the arena in an almost walking step.
Enter some dude zapping the cattle prod behind it just to make them walk a little faster. He just zapped it in the air, he wasn’t nowhere close to our bovine friend. It went totally nuts and just ignored the tasing, rampaging around.
Well, the required amount of rodeo clowns/bullfighters to deal with the mess made it way better than circus.
Also, good job Ben, you’re going to need a new face, maybe they can get you a permanent wolf one once they’re done.
Well, a Tazer hit to Taurus on the heavily muscled side of his back didn’t do much. Now that they’re facing each other, going for his throat might prove to be more effective. Or maybe even his eyes. I don’t think it would do any permanent damage, but the voltage on the optic nerve might well blind him for a few seconds (which should be enough, if they move fast).
O’oh…. watch out Ben!

I like how his expression actually looks like a bull’s expression.

nice
guess they should have brought a cattle prod
Well… Time for Benzene to learn how to be a ranch hand, or a matador?
Or a rodeo clown!
welp
Taurus looks kinda disappointed in Ben’s efforts to knock him down.
And then the part where Taurus realizes that Ben and Steffi are the good guys and doesn’t rip Ben to tiny little pieces happens, right?
…right?

I love the way Ben’s face in the last panel is more confused than worried. Another great track, thanks Cube!
SWORDS. USE THEM. Use the swords, Steffi. Preferably before Taurus makes Benzene Soup.
And this is when ben remembers he ccan kick peoples’ butts in hand-to-hand. Even while wearing a bulky costume.
And also the part I remember to read my comments for typos before I post them.
Maybe the bulky costume will soften the blows enough to let him live?
Somehow the plan was lost along the way, Time for Improv!
Also I love how ben’s wolf costume has transforming eyes (panel 5) a lot like how steffi’s mask is able to sweat.
So much for Ben saying he wouldn’t get them killed.
Clever dialogue placement.
Witty humors response with obvious punchline left out.
now’s a good time for some one like 42 to come in to the rescue or something.
or reed with a pimpin robot arm.
^this
Por que no los dos?
Maybe 42′s Asimovian safeguards won’t work against people who are mostly human, but slightly bull.
I luv the stiff lower lip on the Bull. Stiff lower lip is a signature trait of characters who’re stubborn. Example:

Amazing. TexasUberAlles’ prediction in the previous update that electric attacks won’t work well on grass-type Taurus proved true.
You need to reread TexasUberAlles’ comment better – the grass-type s/he was referring to was Natrix (the grass snake dude).
And if your comment was about the pokémon, Tauros… that is a Normal-type, not a Grass-type.
“There was a plan”
There’s an old saying in the military: “No plan survives it’s first 30 seconds of contact with the enemy.” This is one of the reasons why.
My friend from the air force used to say that to me all the time.
Oh shit indeed!
“Young man, watch your language”
“But Mom I’m in the middle of a fight here…”
“That’s no excuse for poor manners”
The stunner need its setting upped to cattle prod.
Time for plan B…
You have a plan B right Benny?
Right?
:T
Pooop.

Ben should have used more gun.
Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh… Can’t wait for tomorrow!
Well, Friday since I’m several hours in front of america… I hate that sometimes. XD
Steffi, use the nut-kicking technique Ben so kindly allowed you to practice.
It would be pretty boring if everything went according to plans…
RUN!

I like how you covered up the swear word. It’s more creative than actually swearing. ^_^
So THAT’S what you meant by “remains to be seen.” ;_;
