103-Never Have I ever…
(Author’s Note):
…inadvertently given secrets to a supervillain.
(Illustrator’s Note):
Every time I lower the saturation in one of these flashback panels, it’s like watching a Frank Miller movie.
102-You CAN Do It
(Author’s Note):
I feel like this joke is canned.
I’ll be here all week.
(Illustrator’s Note):
That’s right kids, it’s Earth Week. That means for the next six months you get to listen to Liz ramble about inconvenient truths.
101-Super Skooled Origins: Flora & Fauna
(Author’s Note):
Is it too early in the year to make Bing Crosby references?
(Illustrator’s Note):
Why is it that with all the detailed imagery and character design in this strip, the thing I’m most proud of is the choice of color on the blond kid’s shirt?
100-Super Skooled Origins: Daisy Chain
(Author’s Note):
This is our 100th strip!

(Illustrator’s Note):
… *pant, pant* I never wanna hear the term: “Tie-die” again.
99-Super Skooled Origins: Cerebella
(Author’s Note):
I hope you don’t mind that we ripped off Garfield for this one.
(Illustrator’s Note):
I went to great lengths to design Sarah’s old costume like that of a classic 80’s superhero. Those little yellow strips around her boots and gloves were the answer.
98-Super Skooled Origins: Garbage Can Man
(Author’s Note):
Garbage-Can
Garbage-Can
Does whatever a Garbage…Can
(Illustrator’s Note):
For Garbage Can Man’s look I took insperation from a combination of Singed, Strong Sad, and Pathetic Loser
97-And Nothing of Value was Learned
(Author’s Note):
I learned that repeating yourself isn’t lazy, it’s stylistic.
(Illustrator’s Note):
And with that we end Chapter 2 the same way we ended Chapter 1. I do believe this will become a theme.
96-Just Add Water
(Author’s Note):
Television > Books
(Illustrator’s Note):
The secret to all effective flashbacks as a good desaturation of the scene. Just like the secret to all good mystical tomes is a purple glow.
HAPPY EASTER!
May the Son shine on you today.
