A Surprise from the Foglios

Remember these guys?
The Heterodyne Boys

This is interesting. But it's a SPOILER for Girl Genius.



The Heterodynes are back!

Yes, Lars seems to be dead, at least for now. Good point about the distances involved ...

Ergo, (Tah-dah!) by the process of elimination: an illusion by Master Payne, who would understandably model Bill on Lars. 8?

It's rather solid for an illusion (per Wednesday's installment).

Okay, so not a hologram, but solid. I was ready to eat crow, until I saw the page.

I'm still seeing glowing interference-pattern-effects there. And really, I'm back to suspecting Gil -- can't be Klaus, after all, since he's rather smunched right now ....

... ultimately, I'm trusting Dimo's and Krosp's noses ....

Most definitely. Also pls note that Pie Guy told Agatha to play along, so figure that he's in on it.

Back to the original topic, though, weren't there pix of Lucrezia and Bill (Mark II) in the locket?

Oooh, now I gotta go look. But the books are at home, and I am slacking off at work ....
