super-julia commented on the word failure casserole
"Thus is born a new criminal mastermind wielding the unstoppable battle combo of googly antennae, nostril blasts, and nectar-based weaponry.
Note too, the disconnect between the lead character's name in the title and the story. Alternately called B-Man, Bee-Man and the Bee throughout, his name is just one of the many bad ingredients in this failure casserole."
lifted shamelessly from the very astute Brian Hughes' To Be Bee-Man or Not To Be Bee-Man...
