That is an amazing power. But I feel a more effective and original power would have been the power to make people fall asleep at will.
I wonder why DC never picked up on that. Think of it. DC Comics presents THE SANDMAN. Episode one, the Sandman Cometh.

I'm sorry, was I babbling again?

Neil Gaiman did a comic called The Sandman.

Oh, and the bottle in Spencer's hand looks more like a 40oz than anything else, which is okay except that no one but me in the comic drinks beer.

The 2 separate songs are a little confusing, and I think the pattern on the bar is distracting, but everything else looks great.

It's a vodka bottle. I was going to do red details around the label (a la Smirnoff) but went for simplicity. Might do it now. If you notice, there's a line in the bottle that's high in Panel 1 and lower in Panel 2 -- it's the Fill Line elipse, and vodka is clear as water (the bottle is frosted). If it were beer (ew) I'd fill the bottle with light brown/yellow. Beer doesn't make martinis silly (Staten Island Ice Tea?!), vodka does. ;P

The 2 songs are nearly polar opposites, so I did them in polar opposite colors.

"The bar is distracting" because... it's sharp? too busy/detailed? I think the style fits for a swank red & purple pad. B-)
