I’m pretty sure that’s insider trading right?

  Nope. Not insider trading unless Hawk Arrow is an insider at one of the companies he shorted. He had advance knowledge of something but he is not any sort of government or corporate agent, so not an insider.
  
  Nice way for a superhero to get trich and if it became common, laws would probably be passed to MAKE it insider trading.

Zen? Huh. I thought he was Taoist.

  Nah, if he was Taoist his beard would be wispier.

    I meant in terms of philosophy. Zen is the nonsense koans, while the Tao is a question of the Yin/Yang, and pursuing simplicity. (These I freely admit are simplifications.)

      Zen masters have fuller beards because koans make them concentrate and when they concentrate they stroke their chins which massages the follicles and makes the beard healthier. It’s true, I saw it on the internet!

I don’t think a manatee is what you think it is. It’s a marine mammal! Not a monkey or ape!

  Yes but they are very clumsy on land. Especially in Hawk Arrow’s apartment, because it’s got an unusual split level floor design (not shown in the comic). Whereas monkeys are very stealthy. Apes, too! as all the new Planet of The Apes movies have demonstrated.

I have to admit that I like their relationship. The fact that they are such wise guys makes me think they’re close like a father and son. Sure, they’re being smart, but not spiteful.

  Thanks. I am trying to squeeze in as much as possible in 6 frames since there’s a good chance we won’t see some of these characters again for a year or so…
