I'm not yet convinced that this is Alice's style. I think it is more likely that she'll beat Explosion Lady unconscious and drag her, hog-tied, back to where Jack and Ardent are waiting. She'll then tell Explosion lady: "Here is your rat. I expect you two to settle whatever the hell this is sensibly or I'll put both of you in body casts."
A lot depends on who Explosion Lady is, I suppose. If she's another Protector/Caretaker, Alice will not want to kill her unless she has no other choice. If she's just a random nanotech-empowered Ordinary Person, then I doubt she'll hold back against a threat to her charges.

I discovered what may be a copy of the 'Alice in Sunderland' comic that prevented Jeph from using the name. I'll get it from the library when I'm next in town and report back.

Is it bad that I want Alice Grove to become the daily serial and for QC to be put on the back burner? Other than a few art style issues that I feel like Jeph will work out quickly as he draws more action scenes, all of the issues I have with AG come from the pacing, and most of the pacing issues would be fixed if there weren't a few days between every update. (Basically, it needs room to breathe, but the action is already crawling along due to the time between posts. Adding three comics a week would add some room for pacing AND increase plot speed.)
I love QC, but the plot has never really been its strong suit. I feel like Alice Grove would gain a lot more than QC would lose. Just my 2C.

My friend, you know little of what you speak when it comes to pacing and how many pages come out per week. Try once a week and spend something like two dozen pages or more on just one fight though it is something wondrous to behold.
Gladstone:
Alice. Alice. ALICE.
Stop, I think you won this round.
