Well, all credit to Joe, at least he gave it a go!
So, welcome back to Average Joe for another week! And even better – I’m going to be around this coming week so we can even look forward to a regular update schedule! (wait for applause to die down) Hurrah! (more applause)
So today’s was fun for me – I hadn’t originally planned on doing more than the one strip referring to Tobi’s attempt at making a costume for Joe, but after I plotted it out, I really wanted to dress Joe up in it! I’m glad to see the result was pretty much what we all expected!
There’s probably some more stuff to be said about this week’s strip, but the rope-swinging scenes took me FOREVER to draw tonight, so I am very sleepy – and have to be up early in the morning to record another podcast with the Webcomic Beacon crew, so I might have to leave it there! Keep an eye on the Average Joe facebook page though, I plan to put up a copy of the “Captain Fabulous” suit specs when I get the chance this week; and of course, we’ll see you back here on Wednesday!!
Take care, Averagarlings!

Why is there a rope in panels 2 and 3? I thought Joe could fly.
The Major can fly, and Joe’s powers came from the same source – so he should be able to fly; the only time we’ve seen him try didn’t end too well though: either he hasn’t been game to try again, or that power hasn’t transferred over (his “treatment” wasn’t exactly ideal) – I guess we’ll have to wait and see which one it is
Well, at least in panel 1 it provides a good enough distraction for him to do something :/
It’s the suit’s inbuilt secret weapon!
