Panel 1:
In the title panel of this Sunday-style colour comic, we see Barbara
nudging up into the panel to look sidelong at Casey, who is pondering
an equation (apparently, "West of Bathurst divided by Kari Maaren").
Panel 2: Marie,
Casey, the new female Junior Fellow with the long brown hair in a
ponytail, and Barbara are sitting on a couch and, in Marie's case, a
chair in the Davies College common room. Casey and Barbara are reading
newspapers, while Marie writes in a notebook. Behind them, we can see a
thematically appropriate painting of the fall of Icarus.
Marie: Casey, what's seventy-three percent of eighteen?
Casey: Thirteen point one four.
Marie: Thanks.
Panel 3:
Woman [to Casey]: But you're in English.
Barbara: He can do math in his head. It's one of his Satanic powers.
Panel 4: Casey rolls his eyes.
Woman: Okay.
Barbara: He has plenty: math skills, musical genius, pyrokinesis, mind-reading, shape-shifting, teleportation--
Panel 5:
Casey: How many times do I have to tell you people that I cannot do pyrokinesis?
Panel 6: Everyone stares at Casey.
Panel 7:
Casey: Or several of those other things either?
Woman [points]: Yeah, okay...I'm gonna go sit over there now.
Alt-Text: If he goes on to say, "I mean, I wouldn't say I had musical *genius*," someone should probably just hit him.
