I’ll be perfectly honest, this page is just an exercise in getting some things off my chest more than anything else.

Yeah, I know the first couple of panels are bit saccharine but I just couldn’t help myself. With that said, I know there’s got to be a comicologist out there with an answer to Allen’s question there- just what is the “record” for most times a superhero has had to do superhero stuff in one day? Inquiring minds want to know! Also, a special No-Prize goes out to the first person who can identify the classic comic book this scene pays homage to- if you need a hint, the 4th panel should be a dead giveaway if you are at all familiar with this particular comic which featured the first appearance of a villainous legacy that was kept in the family.
Whenever possible, I like to start a new issue/episode with some kind of brief recap of some things that happened recently while at the same time pushing the story forward. I think the little news broadcast here does a good job of that but of course I’m kind of biased
. It’s been a long while but the Super Scholar Award mentioned was first brought up here. Anyone care to guess what may go down when a secret teen superhero, a secret crime boss and an out and about politician with an apparent agenda come together?
PS- For those keep with such things, this is Carmen Reed’s second appearance, before she was in her normal position as Fox 4 News’ morning show host but with Brenda White taking the day off, the powers that be thought Ms. Reed (who save for the blonde hair is modeled after Headline News Robin Meade) would be a good fill-in. Some might say it could be a dress rehearsal for the future…
Here we have another new character introduced and one who we will come to know as a major player in Stealth’s world in more ways than one. I’d like to say more but I fear I’ll slip up and reveal some things that aren’t quite ready to be revealed yet. For anyone who caught the promo piece I uploaded a few days ago the words here are familiar but hopefully the page itself now makes some things a little bit clearer. But just who (or what) exactly are the Talented Tenth?
Well, that is a question that will have to wait some other day for an answer but I’ll just say again- some things you thought you knew, you really didn’t know…
P.S. Forgot this earlier but I’d again like to send a shout out to freelance writer extraordinare Robert Jeffrey for some editorial assistance this week. You can find his comic book work at http://www.terminusmedia.com/, home of “Daddy’s Little Girl”, and his writing blog is http://robertspageofwriting.blogspot.com/. There’s also something else in the works that Robert is working on that should be very exciting for Stealth fans but, um, well, I don’t want to slip up and reveal some things that aren’t quite ready to be revealed yet …
The devil is always in the details
. How many readers out there had noticed that Allen has always been seen wearing an undershirt but was without one on last week’s page?
