I love how the most obvious wife choice is right in front of Axe Cop—the Water Queen, yet he’s completly oblivious to that option.

“Surely, Axe Cop, there must be SOME girls you like. You know, a girl committed to crime-fighting, supportive, understanding. The kind of girl who would take karate lessons with you, eat ice cream with you, go out to restaurants with you for lunch. You know, girls like that?”

“Hmmm, actually, I DO know a girl like that. I will go ask The Best Fairy Ever to be my wife! (sotto) She is the best.”

Poor Water Queen, dropping hint after hint.

Also, I’m concerned about Malachai’s intended matches for Axe Cop. Girl Abe Lincoln and for a moment Girl Sockarang.

Where did Malachi get it in his head that Las Vegas is the place to go for marriage?

Wow I love this. I especially like how it references Axe Cop’s eventual possible marriage to sockarang from… way back when.

Let’s all hear it for science!
Hm. Lincoln seemed to think Axe Cop and Water Queen were OTP. Axey doesn’t even seem to be considering that possibility. And now I’m wondering what the perfect match for Axe Cop would be…

Axe Cop completely ignoring the Water Queen as a possibility for even looking after the kids (much less the main issue) is:

1) Hilarious

2) Totally in-character

3) Probably how I’d think if I were Malachai’s age. Why force the boys to hang out with a girl they don’t know (even if it’s a girl as cool as the Water Queen) when they could hang out with superheroes?

Well, presumably his visit to Las Vegas will be more interesting than mine was last summer.

Hopefully he won’t stay at a hotel that gives him a fridge, then loads it up with stuff that you get charged for if they move an inch, rendering said fridge unusable. Because, well, that was stupid.

Well, there’s been worse excuses to have gotten a wife in Vegas…

of all the fantastic elements in this story, I think a perfect automatic wife-finder is the one that hits me in the wish-fulfillment the most.

Funny. I am of the opinion my best wife pick would be from Las Vegas, too.

I don’t know why, but that bat boy is adorable.  I always want to hug him in every panel.

This is the most progressive comic page I’ve ever read in my life.

The kids don’t look weirded out enough considering the fact they have a man in a baby-suit baby-sitting them. Though they are probably used to strange things by now
