Man, already up to issue nine.. you're making
the rest of us look bad.  :)

Anyway, I'm enjoying this series -- so keep it up.

Glad to see the return of Figment Lad -- always
liked that character..

	You know that's a damn good analogy.  I can just see some
	peace-loving harmless undergraduate that normally doesn't bother
	anyone, and *bam* he get's hit on the head and OM returns.  Kinda
	like King Tut from the Batman series of the '60's.

	Well, I guess this is Figment Lad, signing off.  (My power is being
	a figment of Gary Lewandowski's imagination).
