The Death of Glucose Man

Posted by Todd on Saturday Jul 10, 2010 Under Miscellaneous, Todd

Almost as hotly anticipated as The Death of Super Man, The Death of Glucose Man chronicles the life of Glucose Man and his “arch villain”, Glycolysis. So, Glycolysis wants to rule the world. The only way to do that is to steel the aptly named power rings of Glucose Man: Pyruvic Acidium 1 and Pyruvic Acidium 2. With those rings, he can rule the world by harnessing their power. So he goes and cuts Glucose Man in half because the rings are embedded in his torso. (?!) Harnessing the energy released from cutting Glucose Man in half, Glycolysis is able to create two more rings and alter their molecular make-up slightly. With his FOUR power rings he calls ATP, he throws them into the Super Electron Transport Chain Modifier to create 34 rings. Now he can rule the world. But don’t worry, according to him, “My motives were pure… honest! Oh, I’m so misunderstood.”

Hit the jump for the entire comic. It’s riveting. A precursor to Austin Grossman’s Soon I will Be Invincible.

    Nerd alert!

    But I did see some red pen….was this a biology assignment??

    I find stuff like this crammed in E’s pockets, backpack, everywhere he stashes stuff really.

    I did like the time I found a wadded up piece of paper that said, “Plan” on the outside. Schematics for a robot to take over the world, naturally.

    As awesome as it would be if I wrote comics about biological processes, this was indeed an assignment. I would like to see E’s schematic for a robot. It sounds genius!

    Did you just do this recently? Can you sense my sarcasm? Maybe while Conner (yes, that’s the right name) was taking a nap? It’s brilliant! Although I did get lost in the summary of this comic. I’m not sure I’m your demographic.

    Ummmmm…. I did this last week. I always write comic strips about biological processes in my spare time. It’s fun. And, no, you are wrong. I hope you were joking about his name, Sara!

    Sarah, you did get his name right, but you keep getting the spelling wrong. :)
