- Larisa: I’ll take one. And all the ammo you have.
- Clerk: Very well. But may I first have a look at your ID?
- Larisa: Here you are!
- Clerk: All right, Dr Larisa Kropotkin.
- Sandra: Larisa, why on earth are you buying a rocket launcher?!
- Sandra: Larisa!
- Visitor: Oh my God, they are coming!!
- Larisa: That’s why!

Whoa…M40 recoiless guns are like….460 pounds…
Well, if its Larisa, this kind of makes sense
Dr.?
@ Firedome:
I believe it’s a reference to a previous story arc they did.
She’ll fight for freedom… wherever there’s trouble…Dr Larisa Kropotkin is there!
But why *not* buy a rocket launcher?
Larissa must know to put another round into the engine, just to be sure.
Occupation: TROUBLESHOOTER.
She just shot some trouble. Why do people always seem to forget why troubleshooters are called troubleshooters?
@ Brian:
Never used one these before have you? What engine?
Good fake ID there. 🙂
@ radioactivated: Which one?
Kropotkin, that’s a good one…but as far as I know (and I read all his books), Piotr Kropotkin was a pacifist. Still funny, though.
I hope Sandra will get an explanation when all this is done, at least at that point they’re not in any real danger.
@ Diamond655:
“Not in any real danger”
Larisa just saved Sandra from a brutal death.
This arc just keeps getting more and more awesome!
I am sure I am not the only one – the Kropotkin that came to my mind was the one from The Man Who Knew To Little

I believe Larisa works for the CIA. 🙂
As to the strip…
…I’m speechless! 😀
She appears to have done this before. Now where’s the crater of That?
Wait. Did she pay for it?
Nice shootin’ , Tex.
‘Course, the blast radius of that weapon would probably have killed all of them in real life…
@ Sam:
ikr? 😂 but never mind, i mean with that body frame she can shoot it so easily itselft is …

Well, her new boss gave her the fake ID and 9999,99$ for the explicit purpose of arming herself 🙂

@ TvTropesgotmehooked:
Someone ought to notify Novil that he accidentally mashed together the first two tags in that strip.
@ Sam:
In real life, the rocket wouldn’t have armed itself by the time it hit at that range. Precisely because of the danger of catching the user in the explosive blast.
@ CharlieSato:
An M40 doesn’t look remotely like that. It’s much closer to an M72 or AT4 in appearance.

Nah, looks like a WW2 bazooka, they weighed around 13 pounds.

Nah, bazooka missiles were shaped-charge, designed to burn a hole through armour plate, no backblast from the warhead to speak of, all going forward.

What a cheat seller… this looks more like L72 LAW bazooka…
I hope Larisa will go and bash his head with it after the crisis end and demand some small refund at least.

nah WW2 bazookas had much smaller caliber, this look like Vietnam era LAW.

He means the engine of the front end loader she just hit. Double Tap rule, never assume you got it with the first shot.
@ Van:
The Engine powering the Vehicle that was about to flatten them.
It’s called the double-tap; when you’re not sure if the Zombie you just shot is dead or just faking, put another round in the head to be sure.
I don’t think there is a need for double-tapping here…
@ Sam:
That and the rocket exhaust that came out the back of the tube when she launched it. That’ll make Crispy Critters out of anyone who was behind her, including the guy who sold it to her.
Artistic license.
@ CharlieSato:
It’s rocket proppeled. No recoil. That’s why it’s so useful infantary anti-tank weapon 🙂
Dozer blade raised this high? Smart move against small arms, bad move against RPG’s 😛
Larissa knows how to load and fire an RPG…
Surprisingly easy to accept.
She’s amazing! thats for sure.
And this was the angels plan? having Sandra crushed by random construction vehicles that run into the mall? thats just lame, even for angels.
@ Aquatus1:
Not that hard to do, and you can find the instructions online.

I’ve been browsing through some old strips and came across this one. I think there’s a chance this will be used now. However only as a last resort, if Larisa is unable to protect Sandra on her own.

Could be intentional irony on Satan’s part.
For those of you unfamiliar with loaders, the engine is mounted in the rear. In the real world all Larisa would have done is made a mess of the the front differential. As long as the axle tubes remained attached to the chassis, the machine could still have full mobility. Granted it would have less traction.
@ Drago G:
Isn’t peace through superior firepower a thing? 😉
@ Diesel:
Well there are a couple of different designs, but most modern medium to large front loaders seems to be of the kind that uses articulated steering and hydraulic four wheel drive. Blow up the front drive train and the hydraulic liquid would spray all over the place. That loader would get nowhere after that.
A small (relatively) skid loader also uses all wheel drive hydraulics, so they are also quite vulnerable to something like a M3.
The really large front loaders, way larger than what we are looking at here, uses diesel electric systems with electric motors for the wheels. One of these would probably be the hardest to “kill” as there’s bound to be fuses protecting the electric system.
And then there’s the armored loaders used by the military, but most of those are really only rated for small arms fire.
@ Van:
Fortunately, thanks to Friend Computer’s omniscience, trouble is impossible. Implying there’s a need for Troubleshooters is treason.
Treason is punishable by death.
@ Diesel:
She shredded the hydraulic lines. It’s not going anywhere.
