BGH#442 Can't Fight The Future

I know a lot of you guys probably saw this coming, but it's a surprise for everyone else okay!

Y'know it's weird, When I first got interested in the Crossoverlord: http://www.drunkduck.com/Crossoverlord/index.php (Which you all should go read since I did the art for the most recent page.) The only character I was familiar with was Dasien. Since then I've grown to really like another character; Mindmistress. (http://mindmistress.comicgenesis.com)

Now obviously because of Paradox, I always intended for SuperDan to become a super-genius when he was older. Because I've always loved the "scientist" take on Superman, and "Super-Intelligence" and "super-memory" are legitimate Pre-Crisis Superman powers; which SuperDan is based off of.

But now that I've been taken into the fold of Crossoverlord, I was worried for a long time that giving Dan "Super-memory" would be stepping on Mindmistress' toes so to speak. Not only does she have a perfect memory, which is a focal point in a lot of her stories, but recently in Crossoverlord, she even went through a "hellish" experience and actually made note of the fact that she'll never forget it.

So "Damn" I thought, "That was a very similar plot-point I was going to give SuperDan". And because of that I've been putting this page off for a good while. But eventually I decided that I shouldn't let someone else doing something first stop me. And besides, no one ever complains about multiple characters having "super-strength" or "flight". Why does "Super-memory" have to be such a taboo?

So if you're out there Al, This was something I had planned for a while and you just beat me to it, no hard feelings I hope.
