You may recall, from the long gone days of last weekend, this image of Supersnipe's imaginings of The Man Of 1955:
That strange child's head on a man's body showed up again in the following issue. We see young KoppyMcTodd McFad in the hoosegow, tossed in to calm him down after a minor rampage with bees...
...and the pattern was set. Whenever imagining himself as an adult, he always visualized himself as he is now, but with the superhero body. Later in that same issue, he teams up for the first time with Ulysses Q. Wacky for an adventure that expanded the scope of the book in a mildly insane way:
I find myself mixed with admiration and horror at the placement of the advertisement in the story like that. But, we digress...
And so, with the second issue of his comic, George Marcoux has effectively opened Supersnipe up for unlimited story telling.
But the breaking down of barriers wouldn't stop there. In that same issue...
Supersnipe interacting with real, honest-to-comics superheroes?
More next time...
