SW10/LNH: Powernaut 1944 #5: Power Stars starring Galatea!

[Scott Eiler]

... Yes,  you read those tags right.  This is still part of the 
Superhuman World backstory, at least as far as the Powernaut is 
concerned.  But it's got a Legion of Net.Heroes guest star - and she 
won't be the last one!

After discussion with Andrew, it has been decided that Galatea never 
impressed the Wehrmacht with an invulnerable body made of marble. For 
one thing, marble wasn't invulnerable by Wehrmacht standards. For 
another, classical sources say she was made of ivory, and ivory's just a 
body part. In this comic, Galatea's power is supernatural, by whatever 
means. Whether the Goddess Aphrodite gave it to her, or she just 
acquired it, is not important to a Powernaut comic.

This episode does contain a graphic representation of a sculptor 
creating an object of lust. I've tried to keep it tasteful enough to 
avoid an ACRA label, but just barely.  Still, the main attraction is 
Nazis vs. Classics Illustrated.

I pushed this episode out early so I can goof off all weekend.  I hear 
Snoqualmie Falls is nice...

Let's take a look, if you will, at the Second Amendment of the
Constitution, which protects every American's right to shoot another
American.  This cherished constitutional right to shoot people and make
them dead is currently recognized in all fifty states, most recently
Florida.
