gonna have to backtag some strips tomorrow
I thought that the comic had abandoned the kind of whimsical superhero element post time skip, since we didn’t really have that much AmaziGirl so I’m glad to see it’s back

It's a fast-paced world, girlie! You either keep pace or fall flat on your face!

@Seth Aaron Hershman: Great detective work, Seth!
[Edit: And Dan Rabin, who also ID'd him and linked to the strip.]

Luckily Patreon tends to keep the riff-raff out. Those people prefer to grouse where they don't have to pay for the privilege!

That guy’s posture indicates he isn’t really comfortable on those skates. My money is on him face planting before Amazi-girl even shows up.

It could be Ryan. One of the things Amazi-Girl/Amber was stunned to realize was that her father was fully onboard with becoming a supervillain.

I looked at all the strips tagged "dawson", and his earlier appearances don't look like the square-jawed guy in the first panel of the strip you cite. That guy looks more like the guy Amazi-Girl punches in https://www.dumbingofage.com/2010/comic/book-1/01-move-in-day/move/, and he's seen there in the company of the same guy he's with in that strip from the kidnapping. Those two never got tags, so I wonder if the tagging may be inconsistent.

Found him! His name's probably Dawson, he's one of Ryan's gang of jerks that were at the Ross escape sequence (the one that isn't Taylor/Tyler). https://www.dumbingofage.com/2020/comic/book-10/03-when-it-crumbles/escapees/
