Helmet guy in the last panel isn’t actually human, is he?
I mean I find it hard to admit the rest are human but he stands out in a literal sense. 😛
I wish I could say that he’s a robot or a racist alien controlling everyone else in the crowd. I wish I could say that about real life. Marvel used to have this villain who just made everyone around him hateful and racist.
He looks odd because the fold of his bandana kind of look like the facial feature of a Futurama character. It would probably stand out more as a bandana if the strip were in color.
It does look like that. The person who I refernced for this was wearing an American flag bandanna.
I’m glad she can fight because she sure as hell isn’t going to be kissing anyone!
Do people forget her if she spits on them? haha. She’d need to always have bottled water handy for big fights.
It doesn’t work unfortunately. There’s probably a story about her trying that though.
Well it may have somewhat worked, but it was not as strong as from the sores.
Or does it just not work -reliably-?
She seems to get concerned about people taking sips from drinks her lips have touched…
That is true. She’s worried about that in the first episode and says that even sharing a straw is enough for her powers. Probably what happened is that sharing a drink with someone triggered her powers once, so she’s super wary now. We’ll learn more about that eventually.
she can do the raspberry for crowd control. Pfpflfpfpfpfpf
I have this idea in my head that when she first got a handle on what her power actually was and decided she was somehow going to use it as a superhero, Mya tried a whole bunch of things to see if there was any way she could do anything INSTEAD of kissing people. Raspberries, wet willies, spit, saliva squirt guns, licking. Anything to avoid kissing.
That would explain the “Classiest new hero” award. haha
Does Mya have super-strength now? I don’t see how a person could shrug off getting hit by a car and smashed in the back of the head by a wooden torch, otherwise.
She doesn’t. She’s tough though, and trained to deal with getting hit. But she’ll have bruises and be in plenty of pain.
I’ve done that, and I am most definitely fully human.
I walked around on a broken ankle for three days, the first day having no realization that it was broken (the second day, I realized something might be wrong, but the nearest hospital was not near a bus line, so I had to wait for a friend to have a day off from work to take me).
I’ve been hit in the back of the head with a Louiville Slugger and got up to fight back.
Anger, adrenaline, and shock does a whole lot of the heavy lifting for that. In this case? She probably won’t feel any of that for hours, and then it will hit her and knock her on her butt.
I’ve lived through a lot of stupid and violent situations, and have been hit and run by half a dozen cars in my life (this is not an inflated number), usually by tourists that have no idea where they’re going and what they’re doing, and panicked once they realized they’ve hit someone.
Yeah, I’ve been hit by cars twice and walked it off both times. But I also got punched in the side of the head once and went down hard and had no idea what happened. The human body is weird.
Wow, those people are effing stupid
I’m worried about Mya! Hopefully some of the counter-protesters will have her back…
