Frogs! MY ONE WEAKNESS!

[terrykun]

Doom has come to the fields of Smallville! And it is a cute and cuddly doom!

[drakyndra]

I am amused by the _{Patent Pending}. And Simon's obvious mancrush.

[liara_shadowsong]

As am I. ^_____^

[terrykun]

...I return from resizing and uploading, and you've beaten me to it. *sad-face*

Heh, go Simon.

I'm calling it now, if he visits the future with Kon.

"I am... SCIENCE LAD!"

[icon_uk]

Or "Frog Boy"

"Wait a minute, aren't you Jimmy Olsen?"

"No, he was TURTLE Boy"

[misterbug]

This is some aspect of the character of Poison Ivy with which I'm not familiar...I thought her deal was wanting to make the world safe for plants? Since when does doing her best second-rate Luthor impression come inti that?

[icon_uk]

If Lex has a scene like that with Kon, I think half of SD would sqee and the other half would squick, depending on how you view their actual realtionship.

[bluefall]

Ivy has had many deals over the years. Always weirds me out to go back and read pre-DCAU stuff where she's a flat power-hungry femme fatale, but it *is* part of her history, as boring and inferior a take as it is, so it doesn't surprise me when writers go back to that when they have a random need for some one-off vampy mind control.

[lieut_kettch]

Is anyone else starting to ship Kon/Simon?

[terrykun]

Say it with me:

It's never just you.

[pyrotwilight]

And then the frog army ate her outfit shaped leaves.

[icon_uk]

Has Simon not now unleashed an army of life-energy-leeching batrachians imbued with the plant manipulating powers of Poison Ivy?

[darkknightjrk]

Yes. Yes he has.

Stuff like this is why I love comics. :'D

[elsewhere7.livejournal.com]

Okay...I'm a bit behind. Who is this Simon and why is he so dorky and adorable?

[perletwo]

Simon is Kon's genius classmate and default best-bud at Smallville High. He showed up in the early issues of the new Adventure Comics run.

ETA: And he has a DC Database page!

[perletwo]

Between this and Pet Avengers, I'm starting to want to see pretty much every comics character get frogged, just for the heck of it. :D

[icon_uk]

Well, Robin the Frog has been around for some time..

Why, who did you think I meant?

[auggie18]

I love Simon so much. I'm glad he's apparently sticking around. I really hope he doesn't go evil or get killed.

Please, DC? Please let me enjoy your nice things?

[tacobob]

Nah. Just wait till they give this book a new writer. :|

[badficwriter]

I'm kind of squicked by the tiny mind-control devices on all those frogs. :/

[fifthie]

~country boy~, ugh

Also, Conner's face is like... 10% too small for his head.

[calvision]

*squints* Jimmy? Is that you?

[turtlefu]

The art, just seems really bad.
And I'm sick of the Jock/Nerd pairing. It's annoying and played out. I better later on Kon will get an issue about how he can either be POPULAR or be friends with Simon...
(Also, do people ALWAYS forget that Smallville is supposed to be NORMAL. Something out of the ordinary, including GENIUS CLASSMATE who can make PARASITE FROGS is a little out-there)

[pyrotwilight]

Smallville was normal, before Superboy (Clark). And well it's not like any genius ever grew up in Smallville, right?

[thanekos]

you start with the Parasite frogs, next thing you know you're giving them cybernetic Kryptonite-powered augmentations, and by the time it's too late there's a horde of hard-hided grey bony ones overrunning the town.

[terrykun]

Who cannot be stopped except by the pet-store emptying it's supply of mealworms and crickets.

[wonderwomanhero]

Butbut....but....he's supposed to be gagged! WHY MUST YOU TAUNT ME DC!

[big_daddy_d]

Parasite Frogs?... NOTHING will top that. Not for a while. This book should be bought for that alone..plus..I want a parasite frog...what?

[schala_kid]

Simon soooo wants to be Kon's BFF doesn't he?

[auggie18]

Or possibly just BF...

[psychopathicus_rex]

It's gooood to be friends with the resident mad scientist. (Also, I think Ivy has just discovered a new phobia.)
