Thank you for the call-back to Saturday morning cartoons.

Kaboominator.... What is this, Kim Possible?

Where is Perry?

I don't believe I've seen the one with Perry; my favorites were more along the line of Justice League and Batman Beyond. Good times. The latter actually has a connection to Kim Possible, as the guy who voiced the main character, Terry McGinnis, also voiced Ron Stoppable on KP.

Which reminds me, if I'm going to keep writing these things, I probably need a snappy theme song.

Kim Possible was a throw-away.

Perry the platypus was from Fenius and Ferb.

Perry had an enemy named Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, who was always naming his toys things like the Kaboominator.

I imagine so.

Well, we're both lucky we can cultivate superhero universe on Substack as we would like them to be.

Indeed! Substack really has been wonderful along that line.

The Professor? How did he get off Gilligan's Island?

So the heroes are "capes" in your universe, huh? In mine, they are "supes", at least to themselves.

Yeah, capes just seemed to fit for me; supes is a good one too, though.

Different Professor, alas; although it's probably a good thing; if this professor were on the island, the show would've gone very, very differently, lol.
