09-28-09 Not Radioactive!

Panel #1? Totally the cover of issue #1…

Woo! I was working on this almost non-stop for the past couple of days and my drawing hand aches. I didn't do a lot on the strip during the couple of weeks I gave myself to get ahead. Oh well, just means I have to work extra hard this week until I'm ahead again.

Okay, in case you didn't get the joke (and please let me know if it's not obvious), but Milo IS NOT RADIOACTIVE. That's right, he doesn't derive his powers from radiation, toxic waste, spider bites, rays, ooze, or any of that other stuff.

So, is this the last strip of the origin story? It wasn't originally supposed to be, but maybe so. After all, I don't want to spoil what happens! You'll just have to read issue #1 when it's done and find out!


*EDIT: I edited the text in panel 2 and 3 slightly to make it more obvious that SuperMilo is lying about the radioactive powers.
