Wow, this comic is on quite the hiatus.

No, a hiatus is when the author deliberately plans a break. This is just a good ol' fashioned Schedule Slip. *sigh*

Shame, because I find the blonde guy on the latest page to be inexplicably funny.

Well, it seems like they are working on some sort of out-of-Meek comic commission, from what I can tell from Twitter. Something comic related, since they keep talking about pages, but for now they can't say.

No, it's more a hiatus so they can finish their work.

And this.

Hmm, this could turn into a very interesting game of hide and seek.

I just get this feeling that "The Lord Is My Strength" is actually the name of his horse. And until we learn otherwise, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

The commentary implies otherwise.

That was not a very smart move on Soli's part, although it was a bit of a gamble on Amen's.

The only even slightly viable way to combat a person with a gun is if you can lure them into melee range. Conversely, a smart gun wielder will never get that close.

^^Eh, Amen could've always played it off as "deaf in one ear" or just..."deaf". If she was going to bother with all the tying up and threatening in the first place, she wasn't about to shoot him without warning, and if he didn't seem to hear her, then he wasn't properly warned. 'Sa gamble he could only win, which isn't much of a gamble at all.

It's a gamble that she'd act reasonably or predictably. Your assumptions are likely correct: she would give a warning and may think that he couldn't hear.

Look at that, he didn't knock the gun out of her hand. Will she retaliate by shooting him on the spot, or is she off balance enough that they'll fight first?

I've studied martial arts. The single worst thing you can do as a gun wielder is to close to melee range of your opponent. Fire a warning shot, throw a rock, do something, but don't let yourself go to grab range!

Conversely, Amen should know this, and if Soli doesn't fall for the "deaf and dumb" trick, he's got an above average chance of getting shot.

Looks like Officer Goodhair hit a chord with the "lady" comment.

He seems to know a lot about disarming an opponent. One move to knock the gun aside, then an elbow to the face while grabbing her gun.

It's textbook self-defense training, to which he clearly paid attention and with which he clearly has some practice. He certainly averts The Guards Must Be Crazy here.

I noticed you didn't use the quote.
