I am grinning widely. The Castle is awesome. I love its sense of humor!

Y'know, after "enough talk!" I think my favorite phrase of dismissive contempt is "quiet, you!" And it's funnier with a brick. I really am surprised that the Castle isn't fonder of Vole, though. I mean, he's a remorseless murderer and black-hearted villain - you'd think it would offer him a job instead.
One last note - I'm pretty impressed by the odd angle on that last brick in panel 8. Think about that one.

He's a remorseless murderer and black-hearted villain who threatened the Heterodyne and tried to kill both members of her harem. He's lucky he's still alive.

To heck vit sottle, I vant to see der Kestle vound up to ELEVEN!
Hy vonder if Mister Gil vill find that Vole is bazically Zola Mach II. Although vit dK now in full control, Vole vill heff to be particulary schneaky pents to get avay vith murder und mayhem.
Finally, Hy heff a schneaking suspicion dot dK vill go completely down for a bit ven full power is restored. At a most inopportune time.

Well it seems as if all the pieces are moving into place for the big TA-DA!!!
Vanamonde & Carson directing defences and patches... Jägers lurking around in airships and basements... Oublenmach about to ring the Doombell... Gil and the kittens of Chaos about the charge... Plenty of targets to go: "OH fo'shizzle WE ARE SCEWED!!!!"
The only thing missing is the Heterodyne herself and Moloch with the big switch, which the castle should be able to assist with now that it is patched up.

Given all of what STILL needs to happen, I'm betting the Doom Bell doesn't ring before Halloween which is now nine pages away. Anyone have their own guess?
When we last saw Oulbenmach, he was exactly halfway up the Doom Bell tower.
We have to get Gil and Vole to Castle Wulfenbach.
Moloch, Snaug, and the Dingbots have to deliver.
Carson, Vandemonde, and the Assistant need to be fixing something.
What is Agatha doing now?
What is Violetta doing now?
And where are Othar and Tarvek?

De better qvestion is vhat are Pinky und de Brain (Lucrezia) doink? How iz dey goink to screw everyting op? Remember it vas Lucrezia who messed op de kestle in de first place!
Schtill luffink de kestle, bdv. It haz de perfect reaction to Vole. Namely, if he talks hit him vith bricks! He lies? Brick. Tells de truth? Brick. Haz an opinion? Brick. Perfect.

"Pinky und de Brain" Dot's a goot vun! Hy dun't tink dey gonna show op before de Doom Bell rings. Hy tink dey's still vit us and ve gonna be seeink dem soon enough doh. I'm just trying to think how this volume will end. This is already the second longest volume and within nine pages of being the longest. It's been running almost a year with only three non-story pages. I have to think the Professors are nearing a volume break. The Doom Bell ringing would be most logical. I just feel there's enough things in progress to be resolved before then that Zola and Lunevka aren't going to be added to the mix before then. Possibly right after but no sooner.

Maybe the Professors are trying to get to an actual half way mark with the end of this volume. If that is so, I expect, among other things, thunderbolts & lightening, a screaming Heterodyne, and a troop of tap dancing Jagers.
EDIT: I have been reminded that the end of volume 12 currently marks the 1/2 way point.

Maybe some of them will be tap dancing on Oublenmach. That'd be fun.
