Honestly, that’s a very mature way to deal with that. If I knew the girl I was dating had a secret like that, I’d also let her decide when to say it. I mean what, I’m supposed to confront her after the first date?
Not just that but he liked Lucas and wanted to see where things went, if he so quickly brought up knowing he’s a super then that would instantly wreck any chance at a relationship.
Jaw and hair aren’t really a dead giveaway if the face is still mostly obscured. Especially since the majority of people aren’t going to be close enough to see minute details.
Chances are that only people who would be able to get a prolonged look (meaning journalists/photographers with good cameras and anyone with access to their photos) would twig it.

I mean… he’d be a really bad cop if he didn’t figure it out.
Still. I think he’s a keeper, Lucas.
Why? A cop is not a detective. He could just as likely not be on any case related. The only event he could know is when Lucas saved the kid. As any testimony research can tell you, they are incredibly unreliable for *anyone*. The event was short and a lot happened. Even with cleaning up after Demolition Duke he can’t be certain that Lucas just looks like that arrow guy
As Ben says, “I couldn’t shake this feeling”. There is uncertainty there.

Oh, thank goodness. I was afraid this would end badly.
Next comic: Ben at the station:
“You get it?”
“Clear as day Ben, guy straight confessed to being an unregistered super. We’ll pick him up this morning…”

Yeah that’s like, a fourth or fifth date kinda deal.
[Glances at the complete lack of padding on the costume. The fact that the jaw and hair are completely exposed]
Is there anybody who wouldn’t know?

Oh there’s still time for Tim to gut punch us š

For those who want a re-read of the demolition issue, I did the gravedigging for you :

Thank you! I was wondering about it.
The complete irony is, that story ends with Ethan and Emily doing essentially what Lucas and Ben are doing here.
Didn’t turn out so well.
I actually looked at all the cops this weekend and didn’t see Ben in any. Would’ve been a nice nugget if he had been in the background somewhere.
Lucas, he’s what you call “a keeper.” Don’t you dare mess this up!
He is like SO nice! I’m dreading the day Tim is gonna kill him off š
Even broader smile than last Friday.
Aw man, so he is just a real decent dude, eh? No, nonono … something HAS to be wrong with that.
Okay, but does that last panel sentiment apply to if he found out Lucas was a super*villain*?
Now that Lucas has found eternal happiness, to balance the books Ethan will probably get shot on page 24, bleeding out without respawning right away
God damn it Ben, stop being so completely reasonable!
Keeper alarm is going off, blaring at full volume
Lucas, you marry Ben. You do anything else and Iām boycotting this free webcomic, you hear me?!?
YOU MARRY THAT TREASURE OF A MAN.
