Too bad Suzi’s proton beam incinerates the cup, helium balloon and the ticket that was in that cup. She almost initiates the triple-alpha process with the contents of the helium balloon. Good thing Tyler is in a different cup.
You’d figure that her scientist father would’ve brought it up at some point if it was a real possibility, but the Nuclears don’t seem like the most sensible of people…
I’m wondering what kind of powers the ninja kid has. He must have them, because the fact that supers don’t like non-powered heroes has been established. He probably also doesn’t have an offensive long range power, like laser blasts, else he wouldn’t have to use the throwing stars. my money is on some kind of invisibility to play on the whole ‘you can never see a good ninja’ thing.
Anybody else have any guesses?
Some sort of excellent aim would be my bet. Typically, ninja powers usually include aim, enhanced speed and strength, and sometimes sticking to walls. Another choice would be to summon throwing stars from nowhere.
I remember seeing him in an earlier page or three but don’t remember him being named. Is that info from the RPG?
Prairie Son
Yup. Really, it’s more of a dated setting bible, but it’s better than the wiki someone did (which has multiple names and events wrong).

I assume you mean the ps238.wikia.com one. The joys of public wikis. I created an account there just so I could correct Julie’s entry (someone had deleted the original Julie Finster page and called her “Julie Howard” for some reason).

Oh no. Heheheh.

So that’s what he got the idea from…

Would a fifth-grader know about the fission-fusion cycle in helium? Suzi’s not the “girl geek” type.

whether she knows it or not her powers use it

If you were the only person in the fifth grade who breathed, you’d know how to whistle.

Up side, it’s likely that anybody who is aiming at them will see the tiny bat-thing pulling the occupied cup.
Down side, people are now looking up, at the cups, so they’re likely to see the bat-thing and the occupied cup.

Tyler isn’t dressed that way. Well, not yet.
Prairie Son
Even without intending to do anything involving Tyler, his parents still screw up his life.
Seriously, can we just have Ms Kyle adopt him already?
Messenger
Ms. Kyle and the rest of the PS238 faculty, or Mr. Kent Allard (or one of his other identities).
If this comic wasn’t funny and Tyler wasn’t awesome as he is, this would be super depressing instead.

I’m wondering if Aaron is going to end the comic soon. Dead Tyler would probably be a sign.
Nightmask
He’s already shown that Tyler will grow up into a badass normal partner of the Revenant.

If the foreshadowing we got earlier in this story meant anything, RON will outshoot everybody and get all the prizes.
MrBookBoy
How would Ron do this exactly? Remember- he has a lack of anything offensive.
Ninjaswordmaster
They have laser guns for kids without laser beams.
Stephen Bierce
“…one of our LOW-ENERGY LASER Guns.”

BTW, what kind of power does that kid right next to Tyler’s dad have? I am guessing some sort of card-based magic.
Segev
Clearly, he’s a duelist.
HEB807
Or a baby Gambit.
Knug
Nope. Normal energy blasts. Just showing the charge level. Its all yellow, so not yet getting to all green . . .
Sock Puppet
Shhh! don’t say that or next we know it’ll be cardgames on motorcycles!
Segev
Pshaw. In this setting, they’d be card games on hoverbikes.
Rock
I have one thing to say: “augh” o.o

That would be Takahashi Shiro, aka Shadow. He’s a student at PS238. His super powers revolve around chi infusion and weapons.
