Make Your Own Super-Powers--The Egyptian Way!!

Before we begin, let me assure you, this story is 100% canonical. THIS REALLY HAPPENED!!!

Let's go back, oh, some 5,000 years:

Ah, the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree, eh, Anton?

Fortunately, as royal magician, Anton has access to gods and stuff. So...



Wait, that can't work, can it?




"It's not an 'S'...it stands for "serpent-god!"

You know what this means, right? If you go and mix together a bunch of Egyptian herbs, you can have super-powers, too! This is canonical!!

Of course, it will take a lot of trial and error. Heck, some of those herbs might even be extinct by now. And you might even end up poisoning yourself!

Still, it's worth the risk to have super-powers, right? So go over to Egypt and start picking herbs!!

From Superboy #123 (1965)

Well, Ramses the Great was a redhead, so I guess it's not out of the question...
