Subj: He'd almost have to be, though...

Reply Subj: Wow, this is amazing! Funny, mysterious, and he's much less of a dork than his father... er I mean well done Visionary!

    Loved the banter between the two of them.


Thanks, I've always enjoyed writing bickering pairs for dialog in stories.

    And the conversation with Iris. She takes after her father obviously.

    Can't think who Olie is though?


I didn't want to define her personality too much, but I thought the gag was fun so I went with it. This is the Parodyverse though, so even if this turns out to be true to future continuity, as Griff says she might not always be like that. Perhaps she has been temporarily hyper-accelerated by an old Al B. Harper invention, for instance. Lord only knows what twists and turns are happening in Untold Tales at that point. ;\-\)

As for Ollie, that would be a reference to Oliver Hastings, Meg's toddler son and CSFB's little brother. Kirk has described him previously as taking after Stewie from Family Guy (during that character's world-domination phase).

I've started adding footnotes to help with the obscure references, especially if new or returning posters want to read it.

    Or the mystery womam (though saw your reply to ks so know she is a new character).


I figure Griffin has been around long enough at this point to have some recurring rogues in a gallery of his own.

    Looking forward to the next chapter, and will be getting the art to go with it? I like how you described Agent Garrick in particular. A firey red-head with glasses - does she also have her hair in a bun? Does she wear the black skin-tight SPUD bodysuit? Should I stop wondering out loud now?


Well, naturally, I have some sketches I've done while dreaming up the story... whether they'll progress enough to become illustrations is still up in the air.

As for the description of Gina Garrick, it sounds accurate although I don't think the Bureau of Land Management issues skintight black body-suits to their people in the field. That kind of thing is probably just for closed doors back in Washington...
