Sky High Page #5

...well, impossible to say.

But I will get them, right?

Many sidekicks

are the offspring of one super-parent, mmm,

and one ordinary parent. Hmm!

But there are cases, rare,

yet not unheard of,

where the child of two super-powered parents,

mmm-mmm,

never acquires

any...powers

whatsoever.

There are?

Like who?

Well, I know of only one.

Ron Wilson, bus driver?

There he is.

There he is now.

A 3 bath Victorian with original crown molding?

You bet we'd love to take a look. How's, uh...

When do we brief the president on

supervillain infiltration of the IRS?

President would be Monday.

Tuesday? Great.

No, thank you, Linda.

Hon, dinner's almost ready.

Could you stop playing with your robot eye

- and help set the table?

- Sure.

- Oh, there he is!

- Hey.

- Man of the hour!

- Well, how'd it go?

Um, Dad, we need to talk.

You mean a little hero-to-hero talk?

I think I know just the place.

Come on.

Hon'?

- OK, so, Dad...

- Oh, this isn't the place, Will.

- This...

...is the place.

No way! The secret sanctum?

You know, I'll never forget my first day at Sky High.

Your grandfather finally trusted me enough

to give me the key to his secret sanctum.

'Course, in those days, we still used keys.

Go ahead, son.

I already added your biometrics this morning.

Oh, Will, one thing.

'Course, you must never ever

bring anyone into the secret sanctum.

That's why it's called the secret...sanctum.

Uh, I would never.

Go for it.

Oh, this one's mine, Will.

- You can use Mom's.

- Sorry.

No way.

You've got a pool table?

- How about the pinball machine?

- Man.

- Let's see. Where do I start?

Uh, I don't know.

Over here we got Mom's stuff.

Uh, scientific equipment, gadgetry, whatnot.

Will? Oh. Yeah.

All our greatest battles.

Our finest moments.

Ticranium's head.

Exo's number one bug-bot.

- And is this, uh...?

- Royal Pain's Pacifier.

Now that was a great day, Will.

The first time your mom and I

ever teamed up to fight evildoers.

Soon as she came smashing through the

window, I knew she was the one for me.

I wish you could have seen us.

We were fantastic!

Royal Pain got his, and I got the Pacifier.

And this is my proudest possession.

- Oh. Well, it's amazing.

- Well.

- What's it do?

- No idea.

So this is it.

It's all down here.

Our story, your mom and me,

of, well, kickin' butt and takin' names, huh?

But now it's time

for a new chapter in the story.

The three of us, fighting crime together

side by side...by side.

Now, what was it you wanted to tell me about?

Oh, um...

...that I'm gonna kick your butt at pool!

- Well, we'll see about that!

- OK.

Choose your weapon, sir.

I'll break.
