Yes, this storyline took a long time to go up. In our defense, we were having to be grown-ups at the time, since we bought our first house during this period.
And for additional irony, halfway through this storyline, "Chik-A-Pik" decided to publicly support some views that neither of us could agree with in any way, shape or form. So we haven't been back since then. Oh, well....

So, yes, I did nerd out that hard. In my defense, I am a huge long-time comic geek, and we went to see the movie at midnight opening night, after a full day at work and driving several hours to Richmond. So I was seeing that stinger at about 2:30 AMish? So sleep deprivation may have played a wee bit of a role in my freakout.

(And because it was TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!)

The amusing thing is that strips 1 & 3 here were basically taken verbatim from actual events. (Except for the LHC. We had a Cray supercomputer, not the LHC. Alas.)
