[R] Complex superscript plot text

Hi all:
I would like to create a line of plot margin text (using mtext() ) that
features both a superscript and a subset of an object. However, I
cannot seem to do both things at once, nor have I found a way to paste
the two results together.
(I pull the object subset because this is part of a for-next loop to
make multiple graphs)
This example doesn't give me what I want from mtext():
GoodnessOfFits<-c(1, 0.75)
graphNumber<-1 #first loop of the for-next loop (not shown)
x<-seq(-10, 10, 1)
y<-(x^2)
plot(x,y)
lines(x, predict(lm(y~I(x^2))))
mtext(text=
expression(R^2 * ": "* GoodnessOfFits[graphNumber]))
I recognize that in this example, I could extract the R-squared value
from the model in each loop, however this does not apply to my more
complicated real scenario.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
