A Word of Advice…

You see that thing the Penguin is holding? That's called an umbrella, also sometimes known as a parasol or bumbershoot. In addition to the usual things the Penguin does with his — shooting bullets, spraying lethal gas, slowing his descent when he leaps off a tall building, etc. — it is possible to use one to keep the rain off one's person. If you are journeying to San Francisco this weekend to attend the WonderCon and see all the splendid panels I'm conducting, you might want to bring one along…and not just to shoot bullets, spray lethal gas or slow your descent when you leap off a tall building.
