Thanks! May said the same, so if you both think so, I guess I'll have to
believe it. This is one thing I was very afraid of, but it was really
necessary for the character. Glad you think I pulled it off!

I don't know why, but I always wanted a trilobite character. Then again,
I always wanted an incorporeal, abstract character, and I rarely ever use
Blur :-)

Hmm, that could work. I'll think about it. The thing is, in the
Looniverse, some powers tend to require a bit more space to explain...
I'll have to ponder the format. So don't expect it in the text issue :-)
but that doesn't mean I won't do it.
