Short comic exploring how Mob might feel if he got overwhelmed by people congratulating him for his powers, and only his powers. Very different to how he feels a person should be treated for something they’re born with— just like anyone else.

Why do so many cephalopods die immediately after reproducing?
Okay so the physical reason is that mating triggers a change in their brain chemistry and hormone levels that essentially poisons them and makes them behave strangely and stop eating. If the gland responsible for this change is removed, the cephalopod continues as normal and lives for many months after laying eggs.
But the evolutionary reason is the end-Cretaceous extinction. Cephalopods used to have a pretty huge variation in lifespan, ranging from a few months to over 200 years (https://www.iflscience.com/ancient-paperclipshaped-sea-creature-could-live-for-200-years-57685)
Large, long-lived cephalopods were hit hard by the mass extinction and those who survived did so by being short-lived and reproducing quickly, so they were selected for as cephalopods recovered from the extinction event. The most ancient species, the nautilus, can live for several decades and mate many times, hinting at the high diversity of life strategies that cephalopods used to have.
So yeah, the reason octopuses usually only live a year or two before self-destructing is because of that fucking asteroid.
