Umm, Ms. Belle? Punching someone would be negative reinforcement. Ms. Melee will be demonstrating that momentarily. Positive reinforcement would be rewarding someone for remembering that it’s “Bouncing Belle” and – or is it “Bouncy”?
Punching is probably punishment. If they enjoy it it is positive reinforcement. Stopping punching when they get her name right is negative reinforcement.
All things considered, I suspect that our bouncing, boinging hooligan probably did not pass psychology at any point in her adrenaline addled life.
That’s pretty much the point I made in my comment on the previous strip. To Belle, committing financially-advantageous crimes is just a perk of being able to hurt people and smash stuff.
Umm… Am I feeling that crushing pressure on my wrist for a reason? Could it be someone who’s about to give me some lessons on “negative reinforcement”?
The coach is often grumpy, snarky, and belittling. I suspect if she thought she could get away with hurting the girls she would. That said, it is the biggest hole in my “Coach Brighton is Bouncing Betty” theory.

I feel called out.
It’s my favorite Super Gal: Purpa Glove!!
That sheer look of horror! XD
“It was at that moment, she knew she f*ed up.
“Um… That’s my wrist? I kind of need it not shattered…? Please…?”
That aside, I’m glad to see the team making a joke of the fact the MM readership can’t remember Belle’s nom de crime and probably never will!
Purple gloves with the fingers cut. Matches Miss Melee, unless there’s another Super with gloves like that.
That barista just had one of her revenge fantasies come true.
It’s our favorite Southeast Asian superhero, Kid Malay!
Take that, Bouncing Belle.

The name of my favorite band is Shoes.
Not THE Shoes.
Just Shoes.
See? I can do this too!
Ah yes, the Just Shoes.
No, Shoes.
Less a supervillain, more like just a bully in a bouncy suit.

“I can crush Brazil nuts with my bare hands. Wanna know how that feels?”
“Oh no, everybody run! It’s Bouncing Balls!”
“Bouncy Belle! It’s Bouncy Belle dammit! Do I have to write it on my forehead in sharpie?!?“
“Yes, that would be hila-um, helpful. Yes, that was what I was going to say. Helpful. Not hilarious. Here, have a sharpie.”
it’s amazing how big a person’s eyes become when they realized that they just F’ed Up.
Oh, look, it Bruisey Belle.
Bruised Belle?
Hematoma Belle?
Screw it. Hells Belle.
If this is Jackie’s gymnastics coach as suggested in the previous page’s comments, she’s doing a pretty good job of hiding any recognition. 🙂
