Page 7?!?! You know what they say about a woman scorned....
Just as I was looking up "Sehpt" for the spelling, I realized it's short for "septic" - slow, but I got there.
Secondly, saw a reference to a book that could surely have been inspired by Infectious Lass: Thackery T. Lambshead's Pocket Guide to Eccentric and Discredited Diseases, by Jeff Vander Maeer & Mark Roberts. At the least, it would belong in her personal library. Excerpt from a review:
"It would be impossible to consider each contribution here, and would spoil the fun of the book for other readers, but there are a few highlights worth mentioning just to offer the flavor of the Guide. First up is Michael Barry's "Ballistic Organ Syndrome" which should be self-explanatory, and which nicely sets the tone for the rest of the Guide. China Mieville's "Buscard's Murrain" is the first (and best) of several literary, or word based, diseases; it's characterized by his dry wit and excellent use of language and tone. Michael Cisco's "Clear Rice Syndrome" has an almost Lovecraft-ian feel, and is one of several contributions that could easily be fleshed out into something longer. John Coulthart's "Printer's Evil" is cleverly placed within historical context and is superbly printed (more on this later). Finally, there is "Tian Shan-Gobi Assimilation" by Jeff Vandermeer; not only is it another disease that could easily turn into something bigger, but it echoes numerous themes in his Ambergris work (without explicitly tying back to them) and will thus be a particular treat for fans of his work. These are just a few of the many great contributions to the Guide, and my failure to mention others shouldn't be treated as an indictment, but rather as an acknowledgement of the consistently high standard of writing displayed throughout the guide."

Cute renditions of IL, INFECTIOUS DRURA and LOSER LAD and STAR BOY!
That South Park one is adorable. I can just see her spreading her power by puking at people...
You need to copy that preliminary version of LSH #5's cover that Barry posted, LASH-- the one that had Drura's 'hidden' face gracing it.
What're the chances that *she's* one of the charactes that actually make into the issue? There's going to be at least one, with maybe more appearing...

Hey my picture looks pretty good! ( I haven't looked at it for a while! I had forgotten it! ha) I really should post some more artwork soon..
Loser Lad really did do a great job with the colours. That costume is so complicated colour-wise I wouldn't know where to begin!

Yes, one must forgive the Legion for their failure to properly gauge their candidates' worthiness.
After all, in the issue that Drura is first rejected in ( S/LSH # 201) they ACCEPT as a member a robot that nearly murders them all. Silly Legionnaires.
And then in Drura's second appearance and rejection (S/LSH # 218), the Legion REJECTS a candidate that later pretty much knocks them all flat on their asses and would have defeated them without the intervention of Tyroc's reality-altering powers.

I find it interesting that, having made him sick by touching him, she doesn't seem to be in any hurry to stop touching him.
