Sorry for the delay, been busy with some stuff IRL. Updates might be slower for a little while. Anyway, hazzafrazza time!
quote:
The hazzafrazza device looks much safer! you think.
You stand under the floodlight on a set of copper and steel circles, one inside another.
Tex Loudsnore starts pulling switches. The floodlight winks into life. Eerie, pulsing light shines down on you.
All of a sudden, you feel very strange. It’s as if your body is stretching. Hey! This is sort of how you felt when the comics rack was spinning! Are you on your way home?
The lab fades away. But you can still see Tex Loudsnore dancing around, cackling.
“I’m your worst enemy, Super-Doofus!” he shouts. “Did you really think I was going to help you? The hazzafrazza device is a matter transmitter. And I set it for the center of the star Vega!”
You try to scream, but no sound comes out. The lab is gone. A brilliant glow surrounds you. The glow gets brighter and brighter – not to mention hotter and hotter.
Too bad. But look on the bright side. At least you got to be a real star in
THE END.
I can't help but feel that teleporting a Superman knock-off into the center of a blue star should have turned out much worse for Tex than it did for us...

quote:
Nervously, you climb into the metal box. Tex Loudsnore slams the lid closed.
You lie there in darkness. Suddenly you’re surrounded by a blinding light, like a camera flash. Then Loudsnore opens the box and helps you out.
“Your story seems to check out,” he admits. “According to my readings, your atoms don’t belong in this universe.”
“Can you figure out a way to send me back?” you ask.
Loudsnore’s smile is evil. “Maybe – just maybe! And if I do it right, I may get rid of Super-Doer forever! Every other time I kill him, he comes back to life later.”
“How will you do it?” you ask, a little alarmed.
“To escape from this dimension, every atom of you – and of Super-Doer – must be destroyed,” Loudsnore declares.
Your teeth chatter as you repeat, “D-d-destroyed?”
Loudsnore nods. “That will free you from this comic – and me from Super-Doer!” He grabs your arm. “Just stand here in front of the unconfrabulator – and don’t move!”
To try this route home, go to PAGE 122.
To try to escape before your atoms get destroyed, go to PAGE 96.

Also, if we're just going to come back to life after we die, why do those other bad endings matter? 
Not sure if it counts as an explanation since GYBG is where consistency goes to die, but it's mentioned in one ending that even if we take on the appearance and powers of whatever character we replace, it's still ultimately us, resulting in some unavoidable differences. It's entirely possible that whatever plot-armor factor prevents Super-Doer from dying permanently simply doesn't work on us.
quote:
You swallow hard. “Go for it!” you command.
Tex Loudsnore hits a button. Streaks of blue lightning crawl along the barrel of the unconfrabulator. You close your eyes and stand absolutely still.
Hey! You thought that having your atoms destroyed would hurt. Instead, you feel light. Incredibly light. As if the slightest breath could blow you away.
You open your eyes to discover that Tex Loudsnore’s laboratory is gone! Instead, you’re floating among tiny, bright spots that look like stars. They glow brilliantly, red, yellow, blue, against the solid blackness.
Giggling, you swoop upward. Multicolored stars twirl around you. Higher and higher you go, until the colored stars blur into a bright, harsh glare.
You don’t feel weightless now, but heavy. Clumsy.
Staggering around, you grab on to... a door handle! You stumble into a tiny store packed with vacuum cleaners. An old man with long gray hair grabs you by the arm as you almost fall.
“You okay, kid?” he asks.
quote:
Kid? You peer down.
You’re not Super-Doer anymore. You’re yourself!
Hey! This is the vacuum store that was next to the comic shop! “I was trapped in the comic shop,” you gasp, pointing.
“You couldn’t have been,” the old man declares. “That place has been closed for years.”
Huh?
You describe the comic shop owner. The old man gives you an odd look. “That was Milo. He died three years ago.”
Whoa... have you traveled in time?
You ask for today’s date. It’s the same day is when you left for school this morning!
You dash outside, heart pounding wildly. The stores all look the same – except one. The windows of the comic shop are boarded up. The nails on the plywood panels are all rusty. The shop has obviously been sealed up for years.
You head for home, totally creeped out.
Could it have been a dream? It seemed so real...
One thing is certain. You’ll never take another walk through this neighborhood. And you hope you’ll never, ever find yourself in the comic shop of horrors again.
THE END

quote:
You shriek at the top of your lungs: “Guest shot!”
When you open your eyes, everything is still dark. For a second, you think it’s the shadow of the robot’s foot coming down. Then you realize: It’s nighttime!
With a sigh, you lean against a nearby brick wall. You made it! You’re safe! Of course, now you have to find out where you are. Too bad it’s so dark...
Suddenly, yellow light glares around you. You blink. You’re blinded! Then you hear a faint buzz. It rises to a whine. Your dazzled eyes see a figure in a tight brown costume with flashing insect wings coming out its back.
Ballistic Bug!
“You’re in big trouble,” the bug says menacingly.
Trouble? You look down. There are tools in your hand. You also notice an open safe next to you.
Uh-oh.
You’re a burglar. Ballistic Bug doesn’t like burglars.
You’d better jump to someplace new – and fast!

quote:
You think hard. Then you yell, “Guest shot!”
Instantly, the shadows vanish in bright fluorescent light.
“Golly,” a voice says in your ear. “Look at that!”
You gaze around. Huh? You’re in the middle of a bunch of school kids dressed in old-fashioned clothes. What’s the deal? You expected to find yourself in another adventure of Ballistic Bug. Instead, you’ve been dropped into some nerdy school trip.
Nervously, you glance upward. With your luck, another giant robot turn up any second.
“Gosh, Peewee,” the girl beside you exclaims. “We’re visiting a nuclear power plant! Isn’t this neat?”
“Yeah,” a bigger kid with a black crew cut sneers. “Maybe for a dweeb like Peewee Parkbench.”
Is he talking about you?
You glance down at yourself. Your eyes bug out. Weirder and weirder! You’ve changed into a nerdy-looking character in a bow tie.
Then you realize who you’re supposed to be.
Peewee Parkbench, the secret identity of Ballistic Bug!
quote:
The kid with the buzzcut pushes past, stomping on your toes.
“Hey!” you complain in a geeky voice. “Watch it!”
“Make me,” Buzzcut sneers.
You grin. Okay, he asked for it.
You try to call upon Ballistic Bug’s insect strength.
Nothing happens!
Then you remember what the girl next to you said. This must be the famous visit to the nuclear plant. The one where Peewee gets his incredible superpowers.
You don’t have them... yet.
quote:
You tag along with the tour group, thinking hard. You don’t even glance at the huge, powerful machines in the nuclear plant. Instead, you keep your eyes peeled for a glowing insect. That’s the creature that will bite Peewee Parkbench and give him his amazing insect powers.
At last, you spot the bug.
Whoa, is that thing ugly! It’s obviously some kind of nuclear mutant. It looks like an overgrown roach – with a huge, nasty stinger. You couldn’t really see that part in the comics. All the picture showed was a line in the air and the word “BZZZZZ!” In the next picture, Peewee Parkbench yelled, “Ow!”
Now you can see why.
Do you really want to let that ugly thing sting you?
True, you want to make sure comics history doesn’t change. But you also want to get back home. Maybe you should just jump to some other comic and keep searching for a mad scientist.
Better decide fast. The bug is coming your way!
If you use the magic words to leap to another Ballistic Bug adventure, turn to PAGE 15.
If you let the bad bug bite, turn to PAGE 116.
If anyone hadn't already figured out which superhero Ballistic Bug was a reference to, this part probably makes it pretty clear.
