Nope, it’s not cannon — but it is colorful. The strangest part of this was the fact that the ever-dying Atlantis Lad was alive to share his message of tolerance and understanding at the end of the comic. Of course, the hot dish had already been eaten, so we assume that he simply regenerated.
This is just what happens when you have one person exhausted from Fallcon and the other from potato harvest reading.
Hhahahahahaha! The Latino UPS guy RULES!
This kicks ass on so many levels…
