The Powernaut commits to touching the monstrous power object in this
battle - right as Paula shows up again! Powernaut 1992: Romance and
Death continues.

Bonus Section: 2005 Reprint Commentary from Wyatt Ferguson! Cartoon Violence

For a series so full of swords and axes, there's remarkably little
blood. There are a few possible explanations. (1) Super-powered aliens
don't bleed the same way we do. (2) Good swordsmen make a point of not
bleeding. (Just like good boxers make a point of not being hit.) (3)
Artistic license on the part of Powernaut Comics. I've seen Marvel
Comics show a lethal hole blown right through a hero, with no blood.
Maybe it was cauterized. But I'm inclined to say, cartoon violence.

Why do they call a fast a fast, when it goes so slow?
