just a flesh wound…
but in all seriousness though, I knew this comic was going to get a bit violent despite its cutesy art style, especially after the death of the security guard guy. but I never knew it was going to get THIS violent! I mean as in, on screen gore and stuff!
also, am I the only one who noticed that reed’s left eye looks hurt? it could just simply be because gear punched him their or something. unless its because gear STABBED him their! probably so he could get a cybernetic eye to. though that’s a bit unlikely. as their would be blood bleeding from it. unless the redness around it isn’t bruising, but what remained of the blood after it mostly got washed off by the rain.
@zeed316 – Considering the size of the object doing the stabbing, there’d be a lot more visible damage if Gear stabbed it. Especially since her arm had been damaged, I doubt she could have managed the speed needed to beat a blink reflex and the surgical precision necessary to slit open an eyeball with the tip of her sword without damaging the eyelid or surrounding face.

In complete agreement. Also, if one examines reeds face in the last panel of http://www.kiwiblitz.com/kiwiblitz/track-10/track-10-02/, allowing for the placement of light sources, the shading done on Gear and the rest of his face, the dark patch over his left eye, the blackened eye in question, suggests to me that Gear, having a sword for a left hand, leads with her left and follows up with a right cross when she has the chance.
Go for the gun arm Reed! Gun Arm!
Unless he’s about to die from blood loss. That’d be a plot twist in the flavour of realism.

NOOOOOO!!! REEEEEEEDDDD!!!!
That looks like it hurts!
Omgosh Reed’s really tough! Heck the guy just got his ARM cut off and he’s trying to smile for his love-interest!
So, looks like he be missing a limb now. Not really something I would consider a “favor”.
Silly Gear, not everyone wants to be a badass bot like you.
heh it also looks like she took the arm with her be it for a souvenir/trophy or just to make sure they go with a cybernetic prosthetic instead

Haha, I only just noticed the weariness in Reed’s speech bubble. Nice touch.
“I never asked for this”
Wow, he got rescued just in time? I’d be smiling like an idiot, too
