Or he could raise the intellectual level of those around him by singing Gilbert & Sullivan patter songs…or even a suitable aria from, say, Die Fledermaus.
I hadn’t thought the gold doodad on Zodon’s head was anything other than a part of his costume… didn’t think it had been shown to be anything but that, anyhow…
If that footnote is foreshadowing for Zodon breaking out into a rendition of ‘You’re Welcome’ I can envision several ways it could a freaking amazing scene.
This is why villains really need to resist the urge to have Bond moments. Nothing wrong with unleashing hell as a distraction while you GTFO. But setting off your deathtrap and just waltzing away? Your enemy is known for being resourceful and unpredictable. Do not half-ass either ending them or fleeing… your LIFE (and your scheme) is at stake.
The difference between Zodon and Jasra: taunting people known for superior mobility WITHOUT having cobra fangs for the time when things get close and personal.
Considering the shape of those things, I am thinking something from Little Shop of Horrors would be appropriate, maybe “Feed Me.” I am also hopeful for “I am Don Qixote, the Man of La Mancha” coming from the little floater.
It would be even better if the implant considered someone intentionally setting off one of Zodon’s rants to merit their being drafted to assist with choruses, counter-melodies, harmonies, and so on. So here you might indeed have Zodon singing the melodic line to “Man of La Mancha” … and the Flea singing “I’m Sancho” in counter-point.
For irony, have Zodon have a bad day going, “Why you *CUCUMBER* *HEDGE CLIPPER* *Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase. Hakuna Matata! Ain’t no passing craze. It means no worries for the rest of your days. …”

No man, I want to hear him do “Hamilton!” (You could throw everyone a curve and have him do “Deathnote!”)

J. Moose
Now I want him to sing the Modern Major-General song XD
Xero
Hamilton has swearing, kinda defeats the point of the chip if you do that… unless its shuiler sisters zodon singing that would be very funny
Delver
Is his gold Nuero interface permanently attacked, because if not just steal that and he is rather helpless I would think.
Prairie Son
It’s not a neuro-anything. It’s an anti-grav device to make it easier to move his head.

MattStriker
I have to disagree with the Flea there. That is an amazing plan.
Pietro
Well, his leg IS currently tangled in one of the techno-vines, but otherwise it’s going fairly well!
David Nuttall
At least his foot isn’t caught in one of those mouths.
Pietro
That is indeed true.
Segev
So the black hole thingie is some sort of “mutate anything” beam generator?
TxGator
I’m thinking it’s a “rewrite the laws of reality” beam.
David Nuttall
Well, black holes do warp reality. Mind you, I have not heard about this particular application.
Prairie Son
Okay, I’m with Flea. I did NOT see that coming.
Also, it’s awesome.
Broney
Bonus points if Zodon ever gets self-aware enough about his implant to preface his song with “I will gladly do so… in song form!”
Opus the Poet
I think that should be a “ficus” tree,
HEB807
Codon wearing Flea as his hat is probably my new favorite panel of any comicbook ever.
TheGalator
You mean Zodon right? I don’t think his name is Codon.
HEB807
Yeh, I’m not sure if the problem was auto correct or just my poor typing. I was kinda hoping nobody would notice ?
TheGalator
Sorry. But for someone into coding, Codon kind of jumps out at you.
Simreeve
Also for a biologist…

Flea is the most awesome hero!
JoeMerl
The question is, will Zodon sing “Let It Go,” or will Aaron subvert expectations with something like “First Time in Forever” instead?
Mike
So on the next page, will Ron come in to save the day? If so, how? What will trigger his non-manifest super powers? Tune in next time…

I completely forgot about Zodon’s implant! This is sheer gold!

Then you’ll want to see this old comic. 😀

So the waddling stupid risk from last time was that the flea would turn into an eldritch abomination.

Ed Rhodes
Nah, it has to be “Mean Green Mother From Outer Space,” which is the song that has the little plants on the vine!

Prairie Son
That’s horribly sadistic, and I wish I’d thought of it.
Can I request ‘Three Little Maids From School’?
Ed Rhodes
“I Am The Very Model of a Modern Major General?”
David Nuttall
Zodan’s brain can actually keep up with that song, without the need for pauses in the middle.
HEB807
What about “I am the monarch of the sea” with the Flea playing his sister’s and his cousins whom he recons up by dozens?
Dave M
So who plays his aunts? The lyrics clearly call for “his sisters, and his cousins and his aunts”
HEB807
Good catch, you know, we might be able to convince Victor to play his aunts just to annoy Zodon
Chris PV
Oh, come on. For REAL embarassment and deterrence, have Zodon break out into Barry Manilow songs.
David Nuttall
For irony, have Zodon have a bad day going, “Why you *CUCUMBER* *HEDGE CLIPPER* *Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase. Hakuna Matata! Ain’t no passing craze. It means no worries for the rest of your days. …”

Have we seen Tyler use his time stopper gun? I mean, it’s so OP you’d think he would use it.
Stephen Bierce
I don’t think he’s in possession of it.
