Nazis? I don’t see any swastikas, so where’s that coming from? Chances are these guys are a rival scientist and the military guys who weaponized Dr. U’s CK tech.
Hmm. And SS collar tabs, I just noticed. Black uniforms, not grey, so they’re political, not waffen, SS. Yeah, nothing screams “bad guy” like a Gestapo/SS uniform.
Nazis. If they didn’t exist, we’d have to invent them.
Who’s to say it isn’t alien mutant nazis who happen to be Greta’s relatives and that’s why she has gravity bending abilities? Also maybe the dog speaks pig latin and we always just thought he was barking.
I’m calling this one: those 3 are actually superheroes. South American superheroes. Dr. U and Greta went to South America for their tropical vacation and somehow, chaos ensues. League of South American Superheroes to the rescue.
I dont see no swastika…its authoritarian army themed, but germany is in no way even hinted towards besides the guy in the back being an angry looking aryan soldier. He could be american, or russian, or spartan…ok thats not likely but IT COULD HAPPEN
@zeeman101
If you like Russian mobsters, and I know you do! You should go read the Chimenyspeak webcomic. They got the Russian Mafia all over the place. Also, isn’t the Russian Mafia in like every Guy Ritchie movie?
Mafia is just used as a carryall term for an organized crime syndicate. The original “mafia” is the the Cosa Nostra, the Sicilian/Italian/American Mafia. The Yakuza are occasionally referred to as the Japanese Mafia, but are an unrelated organization, as are the Russian Mafia, also called the Organizatsiya or the Bratva. It’s all on Wikipedia.
probably because while greta may or may not be in love with Dr. U…Dr. U seems fairly indifferent towards greta…wait…I don’t think that’s stopped people in the past…
I refuse to ship Greta. No boat in the world would be strong enough to contain her gravitational field. She’s better off sitting right here beside me. Yeah.
looks like a Confederate uniform, but I don’t see how a German WWII uniform and an American Civil War uniform would ever meet… But that’s just me trying to bring logic into a comic about a girl with 6 arms…
No way, rincewind! Those two would rip the fabric of space and time if put together. It would be the end of the world as we know it. Of course, I wouldn’t mind cuz I’d be right in between them on the express lane to motorboating heaven. Hee-hee!
Perhaps this is the league of supervillians. Or maybe it’s the super villains of past and present. As a southerner a part of me feels that I should be offended by the confederate soldier but I just can’t bring myself to feel that way.
The girl on the right in uniform kind of reminds me of Pip from Hellsing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7PkQo0xgts&feature=related ( warning: bloody and full of spoilers. but hey consider that price of admission for a good song…. )
She may not be one herself, but if she’s German or Austrian then her grandfather and father very well may have been, and by the looks of it may still be, an SS member.
Hm. I can see how it could be the Grandad, Dad and Mom for Greta back there. If so, wow no wonder she is obsessive about the culture costume. It beats the @#$% out of the other options.
Dad: Do not vorry Dokter. I do not share my fasha’s insensibilities. I do not hate the jews as my fasha did. He was a hawk and could not think like anything but a hawk. I am also a hawk but I understand that the jew is more like the rat and I understand how to think like a rat. There is nothing vrong vith being a rat.
Dr. U: well I was going to have a spider solution however let’s say my plan spun its web a little too early.
Dr. Nazi Jr: so you vant me to take care of herr?
Dr. U: nothing quite so crude. It would be a shame to kill a scientific achievement like herself without reason. I want to make her see that maybe she has reason to trust me.
Dr. Nazi Jr: I do not understand.
Dr. U: you are going to be my diversion. You attack Spinnerette for me and I’ll come in and “save” her from your assault. That way I will establish trust.
Dr. Nazi Jr: that iz it?
Dr. UO no while you are here I need you to spy on someone for me. Her name is Marilyn Seong. I believe she is in possession of something that will be of very good use to me.
Given the historical theme, I wonder if our veteran time traveller will be making a reappearance, or whether it turns out there have been unintended consequences to his leaps through time…
Well this looks interesting. Anyone else thnk that one guy towards the back looks a little like Bison from Street Fighter?
HAHA YES
I’m REALLY looking forward to this issue
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaLGS8_gE7g
I can’t wait to see what happens in this chapter.
Super mega bonus points if he does a flying tackle of any kind, or a somersault kick.
Don’t be silly, B. Mison is a 100% original character (C) Krow.
@wolf spider- No, I think the guy in the back looks a LOT like M Bison from the Street Fighter series.
For you, the day Spinnerette Chapter 11 was released was one of the most important days of your life. But for him, it was Friday.
@Wolf.Spider – That was exactly my first impression. Until I recognized emblems on the hat…
Honestly, I was reminded of Heavy Weapons Guy from Team Fortress 2.
@Sirrion Sunblaze
What, Spinnerette went into Chapter 11? I guess its hard times, even for comic book characters!
Perhaps M. Bison is supposed to look like a more colorful…
@Sirrion Sunblaze
You win one interwebs for that reference.
That’s one attractive Gretta.
New Rule of the Internet:
Greta Gravity always looks attractive, no exceptions!
Das a rule to live by, I sez.
Well, that makes sense. According to physics, gravity is always attractive. so it makes sense that Greta is attractive as well.
On that not, gravity sucks! It does not blow.
Gravity sucks! It does not blow.
It always pulls you down, you know.
If you go up, it does not shirk:
You’ll really have to do some work.
@Chaise Murphy
That’s what she said!
It’s just not a comic book until you face off against the Nazi
Nazis? I don’t see any swastikas, so where’s that coming from? Chances are these guys are a rival scientist and the military guys who weaponized Dr. U’s CK tech.
@asura The guy on the left is wearing an SS Totenkopf hat, so that’s a bit of a tip-off. Alos, it’s 4/20, so you expect nazis.
Hmm. And SS collar tabs, I just noticed. Black uniforms, not grey, so they’re political, not waffen, SS. Yeah, nothing screams “bad guy” like a Gestapo/SS uniform.
Nazis. If they didn’t exist, we’d have to invent them.
Woo-hoo!!! Greta-channnn!!!!! (runs down the beach in slow motion towards imagined image of Greta)
“Scientists and Nazis and Confederates oh my… Oh My!” – George Takei
Assuming the blond is wearing a CSA officer’s uniform.
They just want to make the world a better place. Well, that’s what they say.
Of course they want to make the world a better place. Better for themselves and who cares what others think/feel/want.
Here we go again… let me give you my money…
mine too.
*throws money on stack*
i must say i am disappointed why must it be the Nazi Theme? why not Aliens or mutants?
please dont do that
Who’s to say it isn’t alien mutant nazis who happen to be Greta’s relatives and that’s why she has gravity bending abilities? Also maybe the dog speaks pig latin and we always just thought he was barking.
I don’t care if Nazis are over-used. Few things satisfy me more than seeing Nazis get beaten to a pulp.
Also, I love super heroes and historical tie-ins. Can’t wait to see how much the world of Spins will expand.
the Nazi Theme is probibly because they are German
Wolf.spider: is that you Michael Bay? I figured that after the whole Teenage Mutant Alien Turtles your brain broke but hey who am I to judge….
I’m calling this one: those 3 are actually superheroes. South American superheroes. Dr. U and Greta went to South America for their tropical vacation and somehow, chaos ensues. League of South American Superheroes to the rescue.

@bottom lefty: Those are SS uniforms. Just look at the caps, they have skulls on them.

Do they have the Mafia in Russia? Wouldn’t it be the Dolgoprudznenski or something?
That and the SS collar insignia is a dead giveaway.

Oh, I see. I’ll take your word for it. It’s after midnight where I am, and a Wikiwalk could kill any chance I have for sleep tonight/this morning.
@cyberspooked: No I’m Steven Spielberg and insanity comes and goes.
I did Nazi that coming (oh come, you knew that pun would come)
In this episode!
The Villains Go Shopping!
Is that a confederate uniform?
Also, how come no one ships Greta and Dr. U yet?
probably because while greta may or may not be in love with Dr. U…Dr. U seems fairly indifferent towards greta…wait…I don’t think that’s stopped people in the past…
I refuse to ship Greta. No boat in the world would be strong enough to contain her gravitational field. She’s better off sitting right here beside me. Yeah.
Because Doctor U isn’t good enough for Greta.
GRETA GRAVITY IS MINE!
ALL MINE!
And besides, all ships shouldn’t be obvious. They should be, a bit unrealistic, but plausible enough to believe.
looks like a Confederate uniform, but I don’t see how a German WWII uniform and an American Civil War uniform would ever meet… But that’s just me trying to bring logic into a comic about a girl with 6 arms…
I ship Greta with SuperMilf… just because… imagine it!!! ULTIMATE SYMETRICAL DOCKING!!!!
No way, rincewind! Those two would rip the fabric of space and time if put together. It would be the end of the world as we know it. Of course, I wouldn’t mind cuz I’d be right in between them on the express lane to motorboating heaven. Hee-hee!
Perhaps this is the league of supervillians. Or maybe it’s the super villains of past and present. As a southerner a part of me feels that I should be offended by the confederate soldier but I just can’t bring myself to feel that way.
Ominous figure 1: I am the supervillain of heists past.
Ominous figure 2: I am the supervillain of heists present.
Ominous figure 3: And I am the supervillain of heists that are to come.
Ominous figure 3: …and I wear this hat to give you something else to look at for a change, you pervert.
Nazis! The Universal bad guy.
…well this is promising.
The girl on the right in uniform kind of reminds me of Pip from Hellsing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7PkQo0xgts&feature=related ( warning: bloody and full of spoilers. but hey consider that price of admission for a good song…. )
you mean this guy?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yE7FCD_KIh4
Personally I was really more…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgnIjJexut4&t=608
That’s Integra Hellsing, not Pip. She reminds me more of Seras, though.
Yeah. The outfit’s more pip but the person looks more like Integra without the glasses.
Well, the Heroes have a group, why shouldn’t the villians have one?
…Wait, the guy on the left has an eyepatch AND a monocle!?
Ooooh, I’m excited for this issue already!
I seriously hope Greta is not a Nazi.
She may not be one herself, but if she’s German or Austrian then her grandfather and father very well may have been, and by the looks of it may still be, an SS member.
Dr. U: Greta your family called. They’re coming by,.
Greta: Oh no you invited them here>?
DR. U: Yes of course they wanted to see you.
Greta: No you don’t understand. My father is a…
*Broken down door*
Greta’s Grandfather: Heil Hitler!
Greta: Yeah I don’t think I could say it more plainly than that.
Hm. I can see how it could be the Grandad, Dad and Mom for Greta back there. If so, wow no wonder she is obsessive about the culture costume. It beats the @#$% out of the other options.
Grandpa: Ulysses… that’s a Jevish name, isn’t it? ISN’T IT?!?!?!?!?!? To Auschvitz vith him!!!!
Dr. Universe: …it’s Roman, actually. Greta, please escort your… family off the premises. They’re goose-stepping on my equipment.
Greta: Gladly…
Grandpa: Heil Hitalaaaaaaaaah! *breaking glass*
Dad: …he vas veak and infirm. His life insurance is vorth more than he vas, anyvay.
Dr. Universe: Magnetized boots… impressive. Racist ideology aside… I like your way of thinking.
Dad: Do not vorry Dokter. I do not share my fasha’s insensibilities. I do not hate the jews as my fasha did. He was a hawk and could not think like anything but a hawk. I am also a hawk but I understand that the jew is more like the rat and I understand how to think like a rat. There is nothing vrong vith being a rat.
Dr. Universe: Precisely…
Dad: Now, Herr Doktor… let us get down to business. I hear you have a spider problem…
Dr. U: well I was going to have a spider solution however let’s say my plan spun its web a little too early.
Dr. Nazi Jr: so you vant me to take care of herr?
Dr. U: nothing quite so crude. It would be a shame to kill a scientific achievement like herself without reason. I want to make her see that maybe she has reason to trust me.
Dr. Nazi Jr: I do not understand.
Dr. U: you are going to be my diversion. You attack Spinnerette for me and I’ll come in and “save” her from your assault. That way I will establish trust.

Dr. UO no while you are here I need you to spy on someone for me. Her name is Marilyn Seong. I believe she is in possession of something that will be of very good use to me.
Called it!
i really think i am gonna love this artist, can we keep him
So a bad guys chapter?
If all these 3 scary looking people are super villains our team of good will have major problems soon.
Confederates, Nazis, generals of armies of evil enter the scene >>
Dr Universe and Greta with her boobs…
It can’t end well
Given the historical theme, I wonder if our veteran time traveller will be making a reappearance, or whether it turns out there have been unintended consequences to his leaps through time…
Time travel always equals the Nazis winning WWII. There’s a trope for that, but I forget what it’s called.
