If you’ve ever discovered way too late that everyone else got the memo… this page is for you.
On today’s update, having the ‘Talk’ expands from “a sensible boundary conversation” into a full-blown superpowered relationship survival guide. Thwarts. Henches. Sidekicks. Fans. Secret identities. The works.
Lightning Lady just wanted dating advice.
What she got instead was the horrifying realization that:
-
The Team-Up Talk is very real
-
It is very thorough
-
And yes… she’s absolutely come up in other people’s versions of it
This page is mostly dialogue, pauses, and one perfectly timed sip of soda—but it does a lot of character work. It cements Miss Match as the calm, experienced voice in the room… and Lightning Lady as someone who now has some very serious thinking to do about Angus.
Transcript
Lightning Lady: Angus and I just started dating… Do I need to have the Team-Up Talk with him?
Miss Match: Couldn’t hurt. A good Team-Up Talk also covers thwarts, sidekicks, henches, fans, secret identities…
Lightning Lady: How have I never heard of the Team-Up Talk?!
Miss Match: Trust me. You've been the subject of plenty of them!
Lightning Lady: Was I mentioned in your Team-Up Talk?!
Miss Match: (pauses)
Miss Match: (takes a sip of her soda)
Miss Match: (smiles)
Lightning Lady: I… I need to have the Team-Up Talk…
A big, fat, NY thank you to all my friends in the Big Apple who went to
Midtown Comics to buy copies of the
Evil Inc Annual Report, the
Lightning Lady book and the
Courting Disaster collection! Not only have they had great success selling them on their
Web site, but they just placed a very big re-order for their stores!
Midtown will be restocked soon and I’ll be announcing that other store I mentioned shortly!
I can’t thank you guys enough for your support!
