Lampshading "kryptonite" as a stand-in for weakness. I like it.

I was going to do a Captain PSA strip today, but I lost my cold just in time to get hit with allergies. According to predictions, Connecticut is supposed to have a short, but hard-hitting allergy season. At least that means my suffering will be over sooner, I guess. So basically the comic is only partly done. I’ll try to have it for Monday.

In it’s place, Comic Misconceptions looks at the origin of Kryptonite both in and out of story, to see where it really came from both in universe and in the DC offices.
