Bald of Evil: A well-dressed gent with a bald pate and goatee beard attempts to "thrash some sense" into the Amazons. He does not fare well. |

Training Montage: There's a one-panel version of this trope in which the Amazons are shown training in a wide range of Bartitsu combat skills including jujitsu, kickboxing and fencing with parasols and umbrellas. |

comment |
Spy School: Equipped with secret rooms and a combat gym, Edward Barton-Wright's Bartitsu Club evidently serves this purpose for the Amazons, although they're primarily insurgents and bodyguards rather than actual spies. At least for now. |

Bigger Stick: Literally; the Amazons use hardwood Indian clubs (bowling pin-shaped implements used in exercise classes) as weapons in fighting the police, and their clubs are bigger than their police constables' truncheons. |

Functional Addict: Persephone virtually chain-smokes "Dr. Nachtigall's" cigarettes, which are laced with cocaine, as well as drinking cocaine-infused Vin Mariani. Cocaine was often prescribed by doctors during this period, leading to an outbreak of addiction among all social classes. |

Kicking Ass in All Her Finery: Frequently and quite effectively, although the Amazons do also have an "action uniform" incorporating bloomer pants rather than long skirts. |

comment |
Inspired by…: Most of Issue #1 is, surprisingly, closely based on real history. The radical suffragettes actually did create a secret society of martial arts-trained female bodyguards and events including the Oxford Street window-smashing raid, the decoy tactic at Campden Hill Square and the Battle of Glasgow are shown very much as they were reported in newspapers at the time. The assassination of Mrs. Pankhurst, however, is purely fictional. |
