(Jon sez:) Benjamin's line is the sort of dialogue you can only write when you have 371 pages of comic behind you as backstory. Mind you, Benjamin's grand gesture of defiance would be smarter if he weren't facing a robot the size of a small house. In science news, reader Jamey Sharp has passed along a link to the Portland State Aerospace Society, who are designing new and novel sounding rockets (rockets that carry sensory equipment or experiments, and don't achieve orbit) in the hopes of using the knowledge they gain to launch small satellites into orbit. Of course, I'm sure we will all fear a world in which Portland State University has small ICBMs. Would the power drive them mad? We'll have to wait and see. |
(Mark sez:) Well, of course any self-respecting giant robot would have ROCKET PUNCH! (or "Pugni a Razzo" as the kids say these days.) As a side note, if you do a Google images search for "Rocket Punch" you get back some pretty bizarre results. I should be able to color the page for you tomorrow. However, I must note that this weekend is Memorial Day in the US, and as per the ancient traditions of my people we will be spending it hanging out. So it is likely that MoS will next be updated on Thursday, June 1. My goodness, how time flies. |
