Ha! If defusing bombs is reason to call in help, who was he calling up until now? Then again, perhaps this is the first time she's used a simple bomb as distraction for her escape.

XD
Arch enemy / girlfriend thing is in hell of a balance.

Btw. she chose a cute name for Craigs contact.
What a coincidence that she also has a thing for special sexual technics ;)
=> Drama
I know that it's unlikely to be directly connected. But jumping to silly conclusions is always a fun thing to do :lol:

Hopefully Jordan doesn't gonna get sued for copyright infringement by Stark Industries.

Hahaha, that's fucking great! This was bound to happen sooner or later but I totally didn't see it coming. Nice, that gave me a good honest laugh.

Personally I think the iron man display thing worked out pretty well for what it's worth.

Notice how Craig waited just long enough for Tekmage to get out of sight before calling her "Janis" number. If he knows, and personally i think he does, then he's playing her like a fiddle! "Yeah that's a cool bomb... Now you're gonna tell me how to disarm it."

Since Jordan honestly thinks that Craig is a complete idiot do you think she made that bomb with his mental level in mind, and made it so easy to disarm that even a caveman could do it? If so the end of this comic would be even more hilarious.

Perhaps she made it with his physical resilience in mind so that he'll survive whether he disarms it or not. In that case, she can actually sabotage his attempt to disarm it so she can kill the hostages and still get away.

There was actually deleted dialog from this page (panel 4) where Jordan says that she needs to hurry and escape because he's surprisingly good at disarming those things. And that she wondered how he manages to do it.
