    No, this one's unique... so far!  But he was originally "made" the same
    way the local two-legged mouse was.  Still, no one wants more of this
    one yet.

    Scott was raised as the Last Son of Planet Scottron on Scott Island.
    There he learned that criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot, especially of Scotts. So Scott secretly went to Scott High School and
    trained himself to become a Scott to confound them. There he built a
    suit of Scott-armor, and was given a mighty Scott-hammer plus an
    invincible Scott-shield. Scott's mighty armament is only subject to
    other Scotts. This is an incredibly common problem, though. So
    Scott has to rely upon his Scott-Sense to identify possible danger.

    So sayeth Scott.

    Alien boys explore delightfully socially responsible setup, get hassled
    by duck! Spectacular!

    Drew "partial lobotomy!? hey, wait a minute!" Nilium

    Heh, "Partial Lobotomy" was a popular concept for that panel when I had
    people review it in public! Indeed that whole panel went over well.
    One guy said, it explains human evolution. Another said, he was
    secretly part of it! (Or have I told this story before?)
