You shall receive none from me!
But who does that make Destro?
And if Marten's dad is Magneto, that must mean Marten is Quicksilver; he just needs to bleach his hair to activate his powers and become the greatest rock guitarist since Eddie van Halen.

Then we need to figure out Scarlet Witch..
And Raoul - Faye would definitely do justice to PG's outfit.
Then again, with the right glasses, longer hair and a C96 she could be the Baroness as well.
laizeohbeets:
I think Faye's attitude suits PG more.
hannahsaurusrex:
If Raven is anything, she's Zatanna.
Tai strikes me as a cool Barbara Gordon.
Hanners as Kitty Pryde.
Marten seems like the closest superperson to him would be Spiderman.
If Dora gets better, Sue Storm, if she spirals into self doubt, Catwoman.
Steve seems Hal Jordan-esque.
Faye to me seems more like Tulip O'Hare but she isn't superpowered so what am I gonna doooooooo?

shit always comes back to hit you when you're not expecting it.

I had a work accident that made me blind in my right eye. (nail ricocheted when someone else hit it and it caught me right in the eye.). Everyone said I was remarkably well adjusted about it. Everyone else seemed more concerned about it than I was.
Then a few months later, while still going through surgeries to get it fixed as best I could... I say a magic eye photo, and realised without two eyes I couldn't do it. And that was the first time I was sad about my loss of vision in my right eye.
Its weird the things that actually really make it hit home sometimes.
Also, on the Marten is a mooch thing... I have a friend who runs a coffee shop. He gets pissed at me if I try to pay for anything. Just from Marten's personality throughout the comic... and Dora's, I think it more likely that she gave it to him without letting him pay, than for him to take advantage of her not calling him out.

--- Quote from: Melauren on 02 Dec 2010, 05:25 ---Anyone else irritated by Marten's attitude here? Dude, the coffee/lattes/muffins weren't free, it just wasn't you who paid for them. Pretty sure your ex-girlfriend, the struggling small business owner, had to pay for all those "free" goods you were scarfing. And lunch EVERY DAY? I'd actually be super annoyed if I were in Dora's shoes. Coffee, whatever. Lattes... ennnnh depends how many he's having, those buggers are expensive in part because milk and espresso are expensive. Muffins? For lunch, every day of the week? How many would that be, anyway?
Yeah, I'd have told him to stop mooching, I think.
</taking the comic too seriously>

When he says "free" he may have just meant that he didn't hand over cash in exchange for baked goods and lattes, but instead (for example) paid a bit more towards rent than did Dora. He could consider that part of his monthly expenses rather than paying for food.
