  Frequently Asked Questions 



1. When is the comic book coming out? 
    Well, we had originally planned to have it ready by the end of  1998, but 
    unforeseen circumstances have pushed things back to the end of 1999. We 
    seem to be getting back on schedule, finally.

2. Don't the girls get cold in those costumes they're almost wearing?
    No. All of the girls in the BodsquadTM (and other super-powered characters
    in their universe) have a resistance to normal extremes of temperature. They
    could tolerate temperatures ranging from Arctic to the Mojave Desert with no
    problems; liquid hydrogen or molten metal, however, would be a big problem,
    unless the individual character has some further immunity.

3. What is the art being colored with?
    I (Scott) color photocopies of Mark's original art (either inked like traditional
    comic book art, or penciled and shaded in gray scale) with Tria markers.
    They are manufactured by  Letraset ,  and use the Pantone Matching System.
    They are alcohol based markers, so I have to pay attention to bleeding, but
    the colors are superb, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

4. Isn't the name Bodsquad already being used?
    Well, yes, technically. The last time we checked, Bodsquad or Bod Squad was 
    being used by: a pornographic web site; an online women's heath forum; a
    line of childrens' clothes; a cheerleading team; and a women's roller blade
    team on television. U.S. patent law allows the same name to be used for 
    different products (we are doing comic books and related fiction, which is
    distinct from the above mentioned uses); other countries laws may differ.
    Still, to avoid confusion, the official name of both our comic book and our
    web sites (yes, there will be a second one...) is BODSQUAD-X. The team 
    will still just be called The Bodsquad within the stories, but we feel that the
    title change is prudent.
