While she was willing, I didn't get anything in writing from her. I could get permission from her legal guardian but that might be a conflict of interests. My other daughter, Raven, wants to appear in a strip she'll be featured in next week's. For those who have been following such matters, my family and I will be the only "real" characters appearing in future comics. Mikey, Ryan and the assorted cast of Krome studios will be replaced with a fictional cast working at a fictional Games Developer on fictional games. This way I spare the reputation of my co-workers while avoiding any conflict of a legal nature. I figure that my kids won't sue me because I'm where the pocket money comes from. I'm pretty sure that my wife would have mentioned something if I was an inhuman monster. Maybe she's been dropping subtle hints and I haven't been picking them up.

Actually your kids have been saving the pocket money your have been giving them and now they have enough to afford the outrageously high fees charged by me legal firm Greedy and Grasping Lawyers. We are today arranging for our process server Mr "Storm-Dot-God-of-the-Dot-Net" to serve you with the papers to commence legal action against you. This will happen as soon as Mr "Storm-Dot-God-of-the-Dot-Net" recovers from an unfortunate accident he recently suffered. Your are way wrong Stark.
