JEMINI’S COPYCAT COUNTERATTACK pg9
The long and violent rivalry between Scapula and Jemini (and her numerous duplicates) goes back a long, long way; whether or not it’s based on love or just flat-out hate is debatable (if you like to debate on stuff like comic book history…hey, why not?). Whatever the reason may be, these two volatile villains are about to start another round in their long, emotional war. Who will wind up crying this time?
As for those other enemies of Scapula mentioned, you can learn all about Sharkmouth, the Qliphoth, Dadaman, Knuckle Sam, Zarbonok, and many others in the ol’ Archives.

So long, Alfred…
“I will not die a monster!”
I gotta wonder why Jemini is assuming that Dio is going to blindly follow her orders. I mean, if she disobeys, what’s Jemini gonna do, shoot her again? Plus, Dio strikes me as being kinda ditzy, and not really the fighting type; I don’t think Jemini’s army of Dios is going to work out as well as she seems to be suggesting.
Hoo boy…just wait until you see the next page!
It’s not an ideal situation by any means, and Jemini did have plans for using the nanite on a more ‘worthy’ subject (soldiers, mercenaries, maybe some cabana boys for her summer vacation)…but for here and now she’s stuck with Dio. Them’s the breaks!
‘When life hands you lemons…. SQUEEZE THEM IN YOUR BITTER FINGERS AND HURL THEM AT YOUR ENEMIES!’. Not an ideal soldier, but a monkeywrench is a monkeywrench…
I don’t know if that’s a Lady Jenn-ism or not, but in spirit it’s a Lady Jenn-ism!
She would then follow up with numerous ways to hurt people with monkeywrenches and lemons…
An army of Dio clones – bringing the enemy to defeat by annoying them into surrendering.
“SIR! WE KEEP SHOOTING THEM, BUT FOR EVERY ONE WE KILL, TWO POP UP AND START THE INANE BLATHER!”
“Holy Howitzers, that’s inhumane! Wave the white flag before we’re all blithering idiots!”
You’ve earned major laugh points for the Holy Howitzers line alone; I love corny alliteration (something that people tend to attribute to Stan Lee) and that’s definitely a new one for me!
The villains in this comic do tend to fight in rather unconventional ways, whether it’s driving people away with defecation or getting them trippin’ balls on acid. What can I say? The typical superhero slugfests never taught me as much as the juvenile humor of the schoolyard!
Experiments that failed too many times, transformations that were too hard to find; Poison’s in my blood stream, poison’s in my pride…
Welp, there’s definately worse songs to have stuck in your head.
Hell no, that song’s awesome! It’s always great to meet an actual Blue Öyster Cult fan who knows their music outside of the tiresome “more cowbell” reference.
