This page has always been one of my favorites, even though it is not part of the main story (and, in fact, is not really even part of a side story, but only part of the introduction to one, "Revenge of the Weasel Queen"). Nonetheless, it is a perfect showcase of the humor of Girl Genius, which has always been one of the aspects of this comic that most endears it to me.

Here we have a perfect synthesis of Phil and Kaja's writing, Phil's drawing, and Cheyenne's coloring producing a vignette that's delightful to look at, extremely funny, and an intensely satisfying skewering of a surprising number of clichés, both inside and outside of the "mad scientist" subgenre, as well a providing the entire premise of the comic in a nutshell.
