Captain Heroic has a showdown with Countess Influencia, but the former waitress isn't interested in going back to the diner — and she certainly isn't hearing his excuses! She has the city at her feet, and in her book, that's a win!
Fairmount City's top hero sees it differently. There's a big difference between trending and mattering. The Countess may be impossible to ignore... but that also makes her impossible to choose.

If you're in the Columbus area, make plans to stop by the Billy Ireland Library & Museum on August 8th from 1-5 p.m. It's a free event, and I'll be there sketching and signing along with a bunch of my pals from the NCS.

We’re BACK, baby! Believe it or not, it’s the FOURTH season of Hey Comics – KIDS! podcast. If you’re not familiar with the show, I record my conversations with my two sons, Alex and Max, as we drive to school in the morning. I’m sorry for the dated-ness of a couple of the topics. I haven’t gotten a chance to edit the tapes from September until now. But I think you’ll find the discussions to be as intriguing as ever. For our kick-off discussion, we tackle our summertime obsession — Pokémon GO!
