Even though I don't read a lot of superhero comics, I really like stories that cast superheroes as giant dicks. Sure, there's something satisfying about battles between the superego and the id, but sometimes it's fun to root for the villain looking to knock that smug superhero down a few pegs.
It's even better when she's his ex-wife.
You see, Veronica's a supervillain. She can crack wise with the best of them, has a randomly teleporting base of operations, and hangs with a brilliant engineer whose death rays frequently come with an orgasmic setting. She also has a priggish superhero of an ex-husband who thinks women are better suited to making sammiches than doing science.
Superhero parodies are nothing new, but Plan B finds its niche in exploring the pitfalls of superheroic (and supervillainous) love. Veronica's ex-hubby Think Tank can't stand that she has managed to elude him for so long, and his obsession with defeating her is somewhat less than heroic. On another front, when a superheroine discovers her own husband is stepping out on her, she utterly misdirects her sense of betrayal. Plus, there's sidekick Claudia's always-amusing (literal) fetish for technology. And even though the most recent arc, "How 2 God Fite," is a straighter superhero parody, we still get Veronica's arch narration and some delightfully messed up scenarios. I can't wait to find out what happens when several dozen alternate-universe Veronicas are unleashed on the world.

Simply because, when a woofer cone flexes, there is a reduction of output. This decline of output translates into much less bass.
