    At least this (not-quite-)superhero won’t engender another endless forum discussion about why he wears his underwear outside his tights.

    Davepostmp — No.

    “Repel” (as in the strip) and “repulse” are both verb forms. Oddball is correct.

    The adjective forms of each are “repellent” and “repulsive”.

    If you’re going to go around correcting people….. …. just sayin’, …. y’know?

    Just one more reason I usually don’t.

    ………………………..

    On a totally different note — the site seems to be working again. Yay.

    Assuming he is flying and not falling, what are his other talents?

    At first glance I thought this was another wacky Geico ad.

    Give this guy a club, and he’d look like ‘Captain Caveman.’

    He likes to completely over power his foes. He hates when it’s a close shave.

    Hmmm, his feet look normal.Site speed must be episodic. It was crawling for the last couple of hours (Yay for the Opera Browser’s tabbiness) and has returned to normal.

    Dogsniff – yes, thanks, I did.

    I even tried to respond but the site was down.

    I thought you said gaiijinrabbit wrote it — did I misunderstand?

    Do you not copy and paste?I think it was you for whom I once wrote a “how-to”.

    I usually post very late at night, Pacific Time, after the comics come out, and into the wee hours.

    I come back the next afternoon and answer people.

    You (and several other people) never seem to return, or see what I say to you, at this time of day, so I’ll try to post something tonight, i.e, “early” on tomorrow’s strip.

    On forums where I’ve made comments, I almost always come back and read all the rest, every evening before going on to the new day’s strips.
