My guess is probably just a random crit by the laser blasters.
Out of game? Not sure how mass combat is handled, but I’m guessing it was something like “Okay, you are taking on twenty mooks at once? Their puny blows mean nothing to you, but a few of them get lucky shots in. Take three points of damage.”
It’s been a while since I’ve played Fate, but they take Strain, don’t they? And she would have a temporary disadvantage? A swollen eye that gives penalties for perception and ranged combat seems good.
I still think that’s a camera. “A bit more to the left, Steve. Yeah! This is perf- oh, Alex, do you really have to fly into the shot and collapse? We are not getting ‘Most Stylish Minions of the Year’ Award, if we can’t make the combat aestethically pleasing on the submission vid-” *POW!*
And so many details to discuss, like “How are the masked goons different from the rest?” or “Is this room purposebuilt for these brawls?” and “Is the guy on the far right with the blue thingy-ma-bob about to fire a rocket, or is he recording the brawl and sending it to ‘America Funniest Videos’?”.

Oh dang! Who gave Bronco the shiner?

I mean, no one in that room’s tough enough for that.
Clearly she gave it to herself when she did the drop through the ceiling.

Notice all the little welts she’s got. Each one of those is gonna be from a blaster hit. Little worried about the guy with the BIG gun in the back….

It also works for hiring videos.
Those guys with the Face Masks seem like elite-Mooks. Propably one of them.
Indeed Hollywood to care of a whole gaggle of those guys, identified as “Royal Guard”:

Also, why is Desuna only lifting one guy up?
Because that is how I decided to draw it and I think it is cool?
Always a good reason, the Rule of Cool.
On the other hand, maybe the guy was changing a lightbulb, and Desuna catched him when the ladder got knocked over in the brawl?
“Heroes: they also help with the small things.”
I’m guessing Desuna is teleporting enemies out of the field, and probably one or two at a time for maximum range.
As long as the other are not niddeled that he is not pulling his weight 🙂
Also, Desuna strikes me as more of a caster/support than brawler.
Looks like a party!
That’s…..a lot of mooks. Yipes! 😀
That… that had to have been a *lot* of work to draw.
Nice panel.

I LOVE single frame artwork like this. Like the classic WH40k Rogue Trader cover. Awesome. Great job Brian.

“Everything’s perfectly all right now. We’re fine. We’re all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?”
Lol can’t help but hear Ballroom Blitz playing in my head when I see this wonder if that’s what Disco Nova is playing.
Never heard it before, thanks for making me search. It is the perfect accompaniment to this frackas.
Wasn’t just me then.
Also damn……. lots of work.
I didn’t think about that, and now I can’t stop thinking about it. Thank you.
sooo things are good then
To quote Little John from the Disney animated version of Robin Hood…
“OH, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BRAWL!”
YES
Brian, this… is a beautiful piece of artwork. Kudos to you, sir?
This is either the best, or the worst, 90’s rave dance party EVER!!
All that’s missing is foam.
I do notice that there are a few people violating the precepts of Mode’s Law. Wonder if we’ll see if it functions in the Andromeda X universe.
Best page of the arc so far. Really cool stuff.
