Our RSS Feed- 1990s SuperheroesIf you picked up a comic book, what would be some of the cues that would tip you off that it was written in the 1990s? If you were doing a parody of 1990s superheroes, what would your approach be? […]

- Ani’s Review Forum“Hi there, I’m Ani, a newbie to posting but a long time reader, and I’d like some opinions. My newest idea is about a teenage girl named Jessie who has been working to defeat the forces of the supernatural since she was ten years old, when the ghost of her mother returned to help […]
- Using the Evil Overlord List to Write More Interesting Villains1. If a competent villain must make one of the huge villain mistakes on the Evil Overlord List, the villain should have a good reason to do so. Here are some examples: For example, generally, it’s a mistake to try capturing a hero rather than just killing him (because the hero will always escape). However, […]

I love that Agent Black told him it was the stork. Now I want to see a webcomic where Agent Black has to give Agent Orange the talk…
I’d kind of like to keep out any sort of sex-related content, especially with regards to Agent Orange. However, Agent Orange might confront Agent Black for lying to him after another character tells AO that babies come from hospitals. (AB will successfully cover himself by saying that storks deliver babies to hospitals).
Mm, I s’pose sex isn’t exactly the main subject for Superhero Nation, xD. I just love the idea of an exchange involving AB saying babies are made between two people who love each other very much. Then AO sees divorce proceedings or something with the parents yelling at each other and being obnoxious and furiously confronts AB about his insidious deception. But meh, your comic not mine, and I respect it might not work.
I do like the sound of AB saying the stork delivers the baby to a hospital, though.
