… Oh hey, there’s the original of Madblood’s excellent “steel and lightning and open to the sky” line later. Yes, that is much cuter :p.

Weirdly, I think learning she’s responsible for inventing Reagan is the first thing to actually creep me out about Helen. The other things were just normal cartoon supervillainy! This is like… wow, she’s actually kind of a sh*tty person, too.

I’m surprised the Reagan thing wasn’t a Hitchhikers reference. Not very surprised though, the byproducts storyline is very confusing.

Saturday's Comic: Things that the Narbonic comic doesn't have enough of: super confrontational close-ups. (There was sort-of one in the 'Madness' storyline, and that's all that comes to mind at this point.)

I will be expecting either you or Mr. Manley to act out Helen's parting line in this week's rapidly approaching podcast episode. I shall then snip it out and use it as a ringtone.

“Mad scientists created Ronald Reagan.”Yeah, I kind of figured that. I can only wonder how much more badly awry their “Project Dubya” experiment is gonna go…

True story: this joke is why I wasn’t allowed to use a sequence of Narbonic strips in the installer of our Linux distribution.
