Terrific Two

“The Terrific Two” was the nickname Jenkins gave to the team comprising himself, and Kelly as part of his fantasy of the two of them using the superpowers accidentally granted to them by the Vanilla Puddings of Riegel 6 in 2010 to be superheroes. Although Kelly, hardly a philanthropist, had no clear interest in being a hero, she reluctantly acted as part of “the Terrific Two” on a handful of missions after her friend Professor Madison was taken in by the idea and created matching indestructible outfits for the two.

Behind the scenes

The name of “the Terrific Two” is reminiscent of the notorious Marvel superhero team “the Fantastic Four”. It is implied that Jenkins is himself a comic-book fan and the allusion is deliberate in-universe.
