Ben's Notes

I'm pretty sure Lewis is going to explain the Spanish part, so I won't. Instead, I'll point out that the reason Bizarro Aorist is blue is that the Bizarro version of green kryptonite is blue kryptonite. The radiation from blue kryptonite passes right through lead, but is blocked by imperfect duplicates of lead.

The physics of Bizarro objects is pretty fascinating.

Lewis's Notes

Ben and I were talking about how we should have gone after a niche market. Like how there are comics for video game fans, and comics for library fans, and also one for people who like online poker comics made by the guy who did Pupkin. Hell, there are even comics for people who like their jokes awkwardly overexplained. The trouble is, our comic is sort of niche already. Just not a niche that you can put into words easily. Maybe I'll have Ben make up a term.

Note: Ben says our niche is "people who used to play board games and kind of want to see the pieces doing things completely unrelated to those games."
