scans_dailyLet's catch up with the Bravest Warriors!
The battle with Sadness, the clown world goddess of fear, ended in #4, so it's time for a new storyline.
Four pages each from Bravest Warriors #5 & 6--SPOILERS for issue #4.
Looks like blowing up that planet didn't completely eradicate sexism after all. The judges, who are all male and mostly older, do have a backup question.
Two other contestants show up with ninja swords, which counters Beth's bazooka. Good thing she has a backup plan.
It seems someone has been stealing the brains of the Miss Teen Multiverse contestants. (Pageants aren't just about physical appearance, you know! Discussed this recently with a woman who's trying to create a pageant for observant Jewish women.) Secret Division, a shadowy government agency, sent in their teen agent undercover, but her brain disappeared too.
Before the emcee can be made to give the Bravest Warriors information, though, he has an impalement problem.
...that can't be good.
Other!Beth easily dodges the bazooka shell, which goes into the splash zone seats. The new arrivals pose for battle, and Other!Wallow mentions that she's always wanted to fight their evil counterparts.
Back at the pageant, somehow in all the confusion Danny's brain has been stolen. The main group of Bravest Warriors tracks it to its new location, but since we've got two issues left in this plotline, that just makes things worse....
Backup stories in both issues by Ryan Pequin.
