Actually the power it represents is that of the British Monarchy. Canada is still part of the Commonwealth.
So they're magic Britishity powers.

No, the British Monarch just happens to also be the Canadian Monarch. That doesn't make Canada a part of Britain.

Huh, I only just realized that there have been different panel borders for different scenes.
Red for the running guy (so the present given this latest comic?), and blue for Shadey (Some time after the red panels).
Also, does this mean Shadey is absorbing powers or something? Is he just going to become a superhero chimera or something?
Also, it seems like Canadarm is using his right arm to attack shadey in panel 4, but his right arm is tied up, so, uh.... ?

woops, he should have his left arm tied up. my bad.

Well, disguiseyguy isn't speaking in haiku, so we can be fairly sure that it's not Simile that's somehow wound up in Canada and forgot that she has crazy hallucination powers and could probably kill Shadehawk without going through a convoluted plan of stealing Canadarm's arm.
Whoever it is, they are also disappointingly unpunny.
RE: Phase 13.1: From Far and Wide; A Royal Beating (part one) - Loyle - 02-06-2012 02:52 PM
The downside is that his entire body is the arm. So Shadehawk just made a losing wager.
RE: Phase 13.1: From Far and Wide; A Royal Beating (part one) - masamunemaniac - 02-21-2012 06:44 AM
Yep, Shadehawk could've done with a set of instructions for those superpowers really.

Green Dracula out of nowhere now? Wonder whether this will be more or less random than that thing with ice guy...

I gotta wonder: if Iago could beat the Crown, then why were all those other villains so afraid of Crown? MAybe its just because Shadehawk isn't expirienced enough with Crown's powers?
RE: Phase 13.1: From Far and Wide; A Royal Beating (part one) - masamunemaniac - 02-28-2012 11:32 AM
If Shadehawk could beat him by smacking him from behind with a digger, then why were the other guys so afraid of him?
Either the Literates are all incredibly weak despite the number of supers in their ranks, The Crown's power was massively overestimated, or people in Canada are just far too polite to do something like kill each other in a sneak attack.

I just assumed that diggers were the Crown's secret weakness (he's obviously an elitist snob, and snobs hate dirt). And the Literates never use diggers because they themselves fear dirt as well.
Yeah, thats the ticket.

Kyrtuck's theory makes about as much sense as anything else this comic has thrown our way... Which makes it almost canon.
RE: Phase 13.1: From Far and Wide; A Royal Beating (part one) - masamunemaniac - 03-01-2012 04:06 AM
If that's the case, Froster should've gone for a ZA WARUDO attack against Iago rather that his ice attack that looks as though it might?e been a water attack

His puns haven't gotten any better.

It's hard to top perfection!
Also, yay, more burn proof freezy!
Edit: also a new nam- well, title: "The Snow." Been a while since he's gained one.

Well, Iago will either be crapping his pants at how The Chill Pill is invincible, or he'll do another non-temperature-based attack and slaughter him. Wouldn't really be taunting the guy right there...
Well, unless it's yet another distraction so that someone can drop a wrecking ball on him or something.

A sign of perfection if ever there was one.
