"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."Maybe they're just having a bonfire?
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."Oh boy looks like somebody ain't dead yet.
They could just be at a house someone's abusive (ex-)partner burned down.
Formerly KarmaMeter.They Never Found the Body. The laws of universe dictate NOT DEAD.
They did actually. Panel 6. http://strongfemaleprotagonist.com/issue-5/page-150/
Formerly KarmaMeter.She is?
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."Yup. Or maybe not "volunteer"... I suppose I could see her taking in wages for it as well. Also, in this strip's alt-text, it's said that she has an account with the Firefighter's Credit Union.

And her powers are all telekinesis. Which honestly, unless you want to get into reality warping, is the only way to explain Super-Strength.
I approve of Allison's plan to fly everywhere upside-down. (I'm not sure if she means she'll only be upside-down while she flies, or whether she means her only mode of travel now will be flying upside-down, but either way works. )
I'm guessing that the up and the down is her matching velocities. The second from last panel has her with a weird grin though...
I think it's supposed to be "tense clenched teeth"

Any bets on when somebody notices that Allison is starting to influence the world, and tries to kill her?
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."I don't think a superhuman firefighter with a domestic abuse survivor support squad raises the same kind of eyebrows that "potential to cure cancer" does, so I would give it a chapter at least.

Formerly KarmaMeter.And it looks like there's some super-libido going on here. Which, she's not currently in a relationship (assuming she didn't patch things up with Patrick off-screen), so it's perfectly fine.
Enter the assassin.
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history.""Right! Yes, that would... that would make sense. Why would you just know how to get off this random building?"
It's love.
"We learn from history that we do not learn from history."There've been three more updates. The latest one. Interesting that the distinction is made that super-intelligence is good, but still somewhere around human bounds, at least enough that they can compete.
Rest for the wicked
Naming things is hard. When I was a child, my grandparents bought me a copy of Clever Endeavor and I was greatly amused by the anecdote in the instruction manual that nearly the entirety of the game's rules were devised during a half-hour car ride between two friends and the name took eight months and a marketing team.
