ZoeB:
I'm wondering who the target audience is.
Publicising this might set back the cause of AI rights quite a bit - various propaganda groups would have a field day. Especially with the spikes.
Before "Mad Max", there was... "The Cars That Ate Paris"

BenRG:
I've been looking at Corpse Witch's face and I agree with some guys on the Subreddit that it looks a little odd. I think the problem is that Jeph drew it as looking like a rigid metal or plastic plate but the features are too mobile. I wonder if she has a flexible and stretchy latex sheath over a more skeletal endoskeleton, the movements of which controls the appearance of her features, much like contemporary RL animatronics.
--- Quote from: Sullivan on 20 Jul 2015, 21:23 ---It's interesting that the battleAIs need to hire someone like Faye. Granted she has metalsmithing experience, but apparently they can't simply upload (or download, whichever) any skillset they need, the way the "unplugged" could do in The Matrix.
Or, maybe they just would rather not do the pounding and welding and spike-adding stuff themselves.

Or they enjoy the irony of the made (themselves) having makers (humans) as their servants (if well paid and extremely valued servants). I wonder if Faye will enjoy being ordered around by uppity fighting bots who want the 'Squishy' to grab them a can of 40-weight, set up the charger rack before she has a bathroom break or clean up that hydraulic fluid spill. Faye as a victim of racism in the workplace?
Akima:
I suppose "squishy" is more polite than "meatbag".

So you're saying this story arc should include arcs?

You will fit in quite nicely here.
