Grrl Power #1073 - Spooky scary shapeshifters

Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!

Hopefully people get what's happening here. I could have drawn a dotted outline of X standing opposite Chimyriad, but it turns out that not drawing people is a lot easier than drawing them.

Chimyriad is a cameo character, and technically this is their second appearance. (The prior one being the previous page) Only, they're a shapeshifter, so who knows, maybe they've been in dozens of pages?

Someone suggested that I occasionally randomly add X to the Who's Who. That struck me as really funny, but I probably won't.

ArcLIGHT and ArcDARK usually recruit all the supers with spy powers, at least, assuming they have the temperament for it. Shapeshifting could be useful when it comes to thwarting super powered bank robbers of course, but it's far better to not let the enemy know you even have the capability. Members of ArcLIGHT are really more analysts, whereas ArcDARK doesn't even exist on the books, and they probably do a lot more than invisibly hang around Archon HQ.

Dumb people are a considerable drag factor in a lot of professions. My wife's been working from home since the pandemic - it turns out a lot of jobs don't require dedicated office space, whoda thunk? - but the number of times a day I see her throw up a hand in that "what the fuck how is anyone this dumb" way almost makes me chuckle (but also makes me grateful that my job no longer involves a lot of (or any, really) coworkers).

If you're a con man or a legit sales person, it doesn't matter, dumb people are probably your bread and butter. Unless you're selling something like, I don't know, oil derricks, or something that requires a great deal of expertise and manpower. Then you probably (hopefully) don't deal with a lot of dumb people. But I dunno, maybe the people buying stuff like that are dummies and that's why they have a massive team of engineers to deploy anything.
