After reading an article on Webcomics.com I decided I probably should come up with a proper logo... so here it is.

For those not “in the know” in the goecaching world there are these things called signature items. They tend to be things that people drop in geocaches to say “Hey! I was here!” while they can be simply a playing card or a marble they also get elaborate (and expensive). Some people may spend money on a personal geocoin that is trackable. These can be rather expensive. Then someone came up with the bright idea to make something collectible kind of trackable but like a geocoin.

Each year I've designed a tag for Sue... usually it plays off the original "Professor Zoom" theme. This yeat Sue wanted something related to her comic alter ego.
