That’s been a long-running joke, though. The nuclear plant leaks into the river … the lab does super-power generation experiments on the criminally insane, for the tax incentives … they give the lady that they’re sending back in time a helmet for protection, after the previous lady got bitten in half by a T-Rex …
Honestly, this is pretty low on the scale of dangerous oversights, for Shitropolis.
A retro-virus normally is just a virus that doesn’t kill the host cell immediately, but keeping it that close to Narradium will result in either a time-traveling virus or a dangerous influx of disco.
I think that adding a Damage Control group to this strip would be quite funny, only that they would require to have actually useful super powers since everyone else is tearing apart the city (and the blimps) like the Major Architect and that guy with healing powers since all these “origins” are sending the balance from 2/3 to 3/4 or 5/6 of the population to being supers.
Considering the number of disastrous results that we have wandering free around the city (heroes, villains, and monsters), the damage control team must be full of incompetents.
Origin of the Narrator revealed?
or maybe it’s time for Lazer Pony to get an upgrade, since everyone else already did
Like adding 1 to his IQ?
I think his upgrade was dating Mary Sue.
Well… sixty one IQ is better than sixty.
It would be pretty cool if they got some more mileage out of The Narrator. I like her character concept.
This will likely lead to a Captain Recap, Flashback.
Not giving a fuck, and they wonder why there are so many supers and villains in shitopolis.
No, they don’t wonder that. Because wondering would first require them to give a fuck.

… I said, as I walked casually out of the laboratory. Somehow, though, I knew I was wrong…
That’s some pretty severe Genre Blindness on display.
Maxime 14: “Mad Science” means never stopping to ask “what’s the worst thing that could happen?”
Or asking it, and once you come up with the answer, saying “Let’s do that!”
Planning for the worst-case scenario isn’t a precaution; it’s a challenge.

Well, Recurring Scientist did mention interesting temporal properties
Well, Recurring Scientist did mention interesting temporal…
Wait. What?
Mabey the virus becomes this creature :)

They make porno movies that start out like that
Narradium does Dallas?

So just like everyone else, then?
Nah, plenty of the members of the Power Group are competent. Flying Fox Man is pretty competent.
Even Asstronimous is competent. He’s just an asshole.
Metaphysical, temporal properties + Narratium -> “To be, continued” – genius!
Heh heh heh. Yeah, I didn’t even catch that. Clearly the narradium is already taking hold.
I like the charring effect in the bottom-right corner, too.
Ooh, hey, I was reading through the archive again, and I just came upon this:

Could be indicative of something.
Don’t worry the guy studying the fasinating Retro-virus was holding the tube next to the one exploding. So it will be fine.
