Who knew that Grey was so limber? His training definitely paid off.

Jules – looks like he’s rocking back on his shoulders so he can launch himself to his feet. I’ve done the same thing is sparring matches, but it stings like hell if you do it wrong.

I got that he was doing a kick-up right away, so the drawing was just fine. 😀 Tough move to draw if the audience isn’t familiar with it!

I got that its a kick up right off the bat, but to me he looks like he’s standing or kneeling in the third panel, not lying down on his back. First panel is clear that he’s there, as is second, but not the third.

Go Grey go!

With all his training, I’m surprised Grey is going for his gun instead of disarming her or pulling his own knife… Old sniper reflex, maybe?

Yeah I see the shadow now. And if he has a knife, she has two swords. Unless he can well get inside her arc REAL fast, the rifle is the safer bet.

@Jesus, Korbel
Valid points indeed, but after the punch, she had lost one blade and was stunned; instead of kicking up, he could have pushed his advantage. I think he would have had time to “get inside” and disarm/disable/kill her… Anyway, moot point since he didn’t and lunged for the gun instead… let’s see where that ends up! 😉

Ditto. I may not be military and have personally I haven’t experienced training but everything I read says end it as quickly as possible before it gets out of hand. The less bullets flying, the less posturing and cat calling the better. If you tried half the stuff they do in the movies you’d get your head blown off for wasting time twirling around theatrically.
