Page description:
Things are finally going RIGHT! The mecha is working as expected, progress is being made, it pisses off Cc, but who cares? They DID it! Now to work in that huge landship thing..
Commentary:
We Can Do It! Betty stars as Rosie the riveter and Firepit is the “We can do it” woman from the Westinghouse posters that people now mistakenly THINK of as Rosie- She's not and never was.
But it IS an iconic image from the period. The funny thing was that it wasn't a popular image in WW2, no one except the Westinghouse factory people ever saw it. It only became popular in the 1960s I think. Whereas Rosie the Riveter, as exemplified by the famous Norman Rockwell painting, was a popular character.
Funny how our knowledge of history becomes twisted.

You realize that in making the woman's gesture of pulling up her sleeve more ambiguous you have turned her rolling up the sleeve into a hand on the bicep behind an upturned fist. That results is something very similar to a rude Italian gesture. Va fongool? ;)

Thanks Kim! Cc loves her heart symbol :D @Fallopian - Pinky had to make a cameo in her old outfit, haha, but she's only overseaing not working in there. @Banes - Thanks man! @Bravo- Yes indeed! Battleship Betty is the best Rosie ever ^_^ @Jamie - That's exactly the case!!

Yea Pinky's looking cheeky again. 3 15/16" that's a big damn gun. Cc may be an ass but that's a nice place to put her heart.

And sitting on the turret of a Battleship and posting the page on the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. You covered all the bases.

A fine tribute to Rosie! And well-placed heart! Another amazing page, dude!

I sooo want a pair of those pants! The woman in panel 3 definitely made the right outfit choice for working with heavy machinery (though she should tie her hair back better, or it will get caught in some gears)

Haha love the Rosie homage...!! Also, the heart-crotch pants!!
