So a radioactive mosquito bite would turn me into a giant flying insect…. or I’ll come down with either Malaria or Dengue Fever… oh, I forgot West Nile or Equine Encephalitis (comes in two versions folks: Japanese and St Louis). Seems to me a bite from a radioactive mosquito is more likely to turn one into a Supervillian. From the looks of it Mosquitoes are Supervillians already.
Hummm. “Dung Beetle Dog”. Doesn’t really roll off the tongue does it. “Beetle Dog” isn’t bad though. The champion of recycleing. I mean, Poncho has a crush on the garbage man already. I’m sensing an alliance here.
A friend of mine told us this story once. In the early sixties he was a graduate student working in a radiation lab where they were running tests on radiated lice. One day in the lab he was working with another graduate student, a young woman with long hair. They were moving one of the cases with the radiated lice when the case was dropped and popped open right next to the other graduate student and the lice jumped out of the case and into her long hair. They ended up cutting her hair off because of the radioactive lice. About a month later Amazing Fantasy #15 came out and everyone kept teasing her about being Louse Girl.

I wonder if that bite would give him pooper powers?

That beetle could be a sacred Egyptian scarab! See today’s “Strange Brew” comic, and the comments.

A dung beetle man can be good, a dung beetle can push up to 50 times it’s body weight! That much power can be dangerous!

Poncho, you already have superpowers. They usually kick in when food is involved.
