So Stephen King creates the greatest pegwarmer in the entire history of the line, and his son's "reward" was
being body-shamed by Hector Garrido
? Sure weren't many winners in
that deal
, now were there? I wonder if Owen remained such a big fan?
His father is overrated, anyways, imo. Except for "L.T.'s Theory of Pets" and another short story called "Gramma" (both of which scared the hell out of me when I was a child).

Psyche-Out and Stretcher give off a bit of a Battle Force 2000-y vibe as well, actually. (They're all, like, "futuristic" and stuff.)

Excellent segue

literally
four sentences long.)
