Before I post, I have to ask one thing. Were parts of this story posted in the past, because I remember reading a lot of it before.
Silver Ghost, Golden Angel comments
Comments typed up while reading story.
Nice to hear from Evolution Rocks more, too much MCO without details on the other side, was beginning to feel like they had fallen off the face of the Whateley Universe Earth. Plus the fact they could fit in with any other group of similar individuals, guess they might have been in other stories and just blended in too well. Without having knowledge like the readers are given, what do people guess about and what do they know. I can see how the Angel not being known as a mutant would generate a lot gossip. Planet Koozbain, hehehe. So close to the Mutants Pigs in Space sketch Planet Koozebane in name, was that intentional?
Guess the publics knowledge of mutant powers is behind what is known by the readers, the Whateley staff, and probably even the MCO. Otherwise they would think her miracles are just high-powered mutant abilities. Using one mutants actions to tar the reputation or image of another, basically politics as usual for the corrupt part of MCO.
An Anarchist group hiding among a movement, as if mutants don't have enough problems without idiots like those stirring up trouble. If only there was some way to out them from ER! Dammed if they do, dammed if they don't with this Mills character. At least Matt is smart enough to figure out what Silver Ghost isn't adventuring and the exception against Madcap.
So behind the scenes Herb Goodkind might have, most likely did, bailed out that creep Goldstar despite the fact he got people killed. Nice recap of events from the Silver Ghost stories, had forgotten a few of these details. Nice tactic, plus against the KoP and point out they shot a teenage girl in the back while she was working with the police under an official position.
Insure they never get a license to operate locally, at least until the next mayor is elected. Making the public see the KoP as another tax payer's burden despite it being privately funded by a multi-millionaire, if not billionaire. No politician with an ounce of self-preservation for his career would vote in favor of it when public opinion is against it. How can people treat kids and teens that way, just ignoring their plight? It sickens me to hear about it, just knowing it happens in the real world is bad enough, to make the problem worse because they go through a change they can't control and didn't ask for is inhuman.
Can't believe the KoP hasn't been sued by Champion and his friends for slander. And their actions in the Cloisters, if brought to the light of day, would have them brought up on so many charges they would be in legal limbo for a decade at least. The more I read about Herb Goodkind and his brother in each story, the more I'm hoping something happens to reveal the monsters they are to the world to the extent no amount of money would prevent them from spending time in jail. Or they screw up and one of the monsters they work with turns on them.
The human ego can be a fragile thing, their plan will probably work if the MCO goes after Madcap again despite not being licensed to operate in Cincinnati. Either way, the MCO has trouble, worse if they take the bait because if Herb gives the order, as said, that is an illegal military action on American soil. The MCO would be dismantled in a week by all the government agencies and agents for such a stunt.
And Matt is right once again, Madcap makes actual Loony Tunes character tactics look sane most of the time. Coming up with things on the fly and being just as unpredictable yourself are the only chance you have of catching her. Boy, this bunch much have a lot of experience spinning stories to their benefit and that of their causes. Nice, a way within their own charter's rules to get rid of the pests.
Skilled and knowledgeable intruder, who knows how to react to things. Wait a minute...I feel like I've read this story before, was it posted in part or in full on the old site? If so, then I know this is a training exercise for Stacy, although the smoke bomb in the vase was genius. She waited instead of trying to tackle him, opponents will almost never do what you are expecting. The flash-bang grenade was the perfect counter to her being invisible and lying in wait, one of the oldest principles of fighting, at least what I was told, is can't see, can't fight.
Time honored tactic for thieves, endanger something else which you know they will want to protect, thus giving them time to escape. Also works for supervillains and other criminals. Harsh lesson to learn, not everyone plays by the rules and you have to adapt quickly to changing circumstances.
Okay, this is a universe with mutants and other superhumans, advanced technology, aliens, and the H.P. Lovecraft Mythos stuff. But a mall that didn't put up Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving, that is too unbelievable. If only we could all be so lucky as to have stores only play instrumentals at Christmas time. It is fun to hear the lyrics and song maybe once or twice, but over and over again starts to drive you batty. And proof that just because the readers know about the characters not everyone does. Wonder how Stacy will react upon arriving at Whateley and meeting Fey, even possibly asking her about the ad with the "CGI" fairies. Hehehe.
Poor Stacy, wonder what she will end up getting them. Calling Christmas shopping hunting season, that is as bad as the old gag in the Flintstones where the wives would run off with credit cards crying "Charge it!" Nice Princess Bride routine, got a chuckle out of it. Ouch, replaced kneecap, I know how bad that is, my mom had her surgery done in late October and is still recovering.
Pulling the old Superman gag with Mindy, just because someone isn't there when a known superhuman shows up doesn't automatically make them that superhuman. Besides, does she have the right height and build at least to be Madcap? Poor Spence, bet he never makes a bet with Jennilee again. A gun like that, multiple non-lethal options in case the other fails, good in theory, bad if your foes get ahold of it. Ugh, Standish, shock jocks only do it for the notoriety, doesn't make them any less obnoxious.
Poor Spence, having to put up with a friend like Nate, wonder how much ribbing he will get over this. The one friend that you wish your other friend would either try to change or give up, because of all the trouble they drag their friends into. Oh, trying to impress the older brother with crazy stunts and antics. Wonder if the story about Kirk betraying his Nate like that is true or something else happened. And great, poor Stacy is going to be dragged to parties now.
High society of any sort, the kind of place I would avoid. Hate being made to mingle and have social anxiety myself. All these parties she is being invited to, go to the ones with friends, avoid the ones with enemies even if they are just high school enemies. Christmas time for superheroes must be a logistical nightmare sometimes, with all their scheduled parties and stuff with family and friends in civilian identity, then even more as their superhero selves.
Silver is being smart when dealing with Goldstar, let him dig his own grave so to speak, if he decides to badmouth her after her just agreed with him. And Goldstar puts his foot in his mouth, little bigot is going to get thrown off the team if he doesn't drop the attitude. And no one really wants Goldstar for their events, puffed up goon deserves it.
A theft with no obvious thing stolen, wonder who did that. Possibly a set-up by H1!, or is it Mills trying to stir up trouble? Guess I have to keep reading to find out. Yeah, that would seem like the kind of stunt Madcap would pull. Although a teenage girl out that late, even Madcap needs her beauty sleep. Avoids the security cameras but leaves behind a spray paint tag, too smart and well thought out to be Madcap. She would have purposefully gotten into the camera's line of sight, wanting to be seen. And SG figured out as well, it was an attempted frame-up by someone who doesn't know Madcap that well. She's too zany to not have fun while committing a crime.
Crud, with what SG said about Madcap, this smells like an MCO or KoP set-up to lure out Madcap. At least they are being smart about this, keeping it quiet to lure out the perp. Just don't let the press have even the slightest whiff of this story or no matter what he police say one or more of them will "accidently" run it. Perfect reaction from the ER! first meeting her, what you would expect in the real world even if superhumans were shown on the news all the time. And how they think others would react, people react with fear to things they don't understand. Making them see the human side of SG and not the mutant is a great idea, maybe people will start to listen.
And at Mrs. Harding's party, Stacy learns a valuable lesson about being a girl, other girl will try to tear you down sometimes just because they are jealous. A vest...out of wrapping paper...Stacy has more restraint than I, I would have been laughing my head off at seeing that. All that small talk...Stacy must have an iron will not to run screaming from all that inane chatter and passes at her.
Oooo, one of the worst kind of criminals for superheroes to deal with, a smart one who plans things out. Skill and magic, hope the police realize Officer on Watch never had a chance of seeing through the subterfuge. Complex mechanical locks that can thwart magic and wards through the evidence locker, they must deal with more magic wielders than he we expecting. And powerful wards at that, either that or his magic isn't as powerful as I first suspected.
Even if you have magic, using it for trivial things is a waste for anyone who isn't at least a Wiz-4 mutant. Ack! Nooooo! Those kids at the party were not the whiners, spare Stacy meeting any of those. She might just snap and slap the idiot and berate them for complaining about being given everything they ask for. I know I would have at that age. You would have to pay me 1 mil a week to put up with a whiner like she is describing. Even then that might not be enough if they become more obnoxious.
And the fact sets in and leads to a panic attack. At least Karen is there for her, if anyone ever harms Karen I could see Stacy going dark very fast.
Nice use of Karen to explain the major troupe seen in most superhero universes of them not making major changes. Because they are complex issues with a lot going on and simple solutions never work out. Even the Authority had trouble with this one. Seeing only excellent or good examples wouldn't show you why the horrible examples are horrible to start with.
Herb met his match in the Montessori principal, try anything to bad mouth her and he will be in trouble. A lot of powerful families back that school. Art lives in the modern age, even back in 2006, and doesn't know what YouTube is or what the term viral for a video means, yet he thinks he can out PR the people behind SG. Plus thinks it is just a fad and will go away. As Bugs Bunny would say, what a maroon. Plus plotting to have troops out at random locations and just reacting to a clear and present danger, also knocking out SG or making her look incompetent. This is going to backfire on them big time, I can't wait to see the fallout.
Hehehe, Lauren needs to learn you are never too old to enjoy decorating a Christmas tree. Poor Stacy, she has to realize there are people with a lot more experience "smoozing" people than her. Even with her powers it would take a couple decades to even start to catch up. Uh oh, why would Mrs. Chase want to know who she is? Is it something bad, blackmail material, or just good intentions with a noisy personality. Swashbuckler to the rescue, having a superhero good at disguises as a friend is a good thing.
Nice analogy for the wordplay between Swashbuckler and Mrs. Chase. If he ever gives up the superhero biz, he should go into acting. And she left with an excuse, this match goes to Swashbuckler. And with plans for her to go to Whateley, dating someone local would be painful to her and him, as she would be gone a good chunk of the year for 4 years.
Another mysterious crime with no apparent motive or item stolen at first for us dear readers. By the time they catch this crook, Silver Ghost is going to want to have a long chat with them about why they did it. Parents stopping a foolish stunt by the old pulling the ear, a classic. And the night is made painful by Goldstar, that guy seriously needs to be taught a lesson about being a bigot, especially when it involves children or teens. Okay, didn't see Goldstar being Nate's brother Kirk coming. Now I have to know what the falling out between them was over.
He stole a dynamorph from his own brother and used it to become a "superhero", with the excuse it was dangerous and he was protecting him. What a creep. And the bigot pulls the mutant card as a threat, big surprise. Idiot is trying to blackmail her without thinking of the consequences of his actions, as Stacy points out. If there is a way to remove a dynamorph without killing the host or dynamorph, I say Goldstar be the first one forced to.
Thank you, Cincinnati PD for bailing her out of that situation, I think Goldstar would have tried to call her "bluff" and ended up serving time in jail, but also endangering her and everyone she cares about. Nice magic mirror portal, makes you wonder what other "toys" she has we haven't seen yet. By now it is predictable in the genre that cops not used to dealing with superhumans will overreact unless restrained by more experienced officers. Still fun to watch though, almost expect him to pee his pants from fear.
Not only is the person trying to set off Madcap trying to frame her badly, they are a theme-based criminal. If anyone makes a reference to Silver Ghost being like Batman, she will probably either feel complimented or scream in frustration. And now the other thief at the police station, just great, Stacy isn't going to get much sleep tonight unless she rest in until after noon.
And points to the Green Witch, Silver Ghost is being reckless without knowing what she is up against. This isn't Madcap, the person in their might very well use lethal force or do something horrible to her with their magic. Plus the whole special license being revoked would just add fuel to the fire. Shoot, forgot that fact about Stacy, she is afraid of being taken away from her new home and family and being sent off to Whateley, believing it will prove she is nothing but a burden. She needs to see a councilor already, with all the issues she has.
Sneaks in only to be taken down by the guy's familiar, great. And the stupid thing was able to detect her while she was invisible too. If she was in an MMORPG, she would be yelling at the Sys Admin right then "Stop nerfing my invisibility!" Sorry, couldn't resist. Cardsharp, not a bad name for a magic user who seems to specialize in using playing cards as his magical tools. Nice magic fight, I would just sit back and watch too, don't want to tick off either side. And I'm wondering if she did step on the cat's tail as well now.
3 tons of force and couldn't rip the thing off, dang, that is a well-built dingus. Too many tamper-traps, although I guess in their world it pays to be paranoid. And the villain actually planned his escape, those are the dangerous ones to deal with. Smart, knows how to plan things out, has various resources but tries not to rely too much on any one. Great, he is a magic-using Batman thief.
Ouch, even worse than I thought, a criminal Indiana Jones is scary, just think of all the artifacts he already has available to use. Goldstar is going to keep putting his foot in his mouth, he must like the taste of shoe. I've really overestimated how much the rest of the world beyond Whateley knows about stuff we as the readers have been told about. I would have thought Emperor Wilkins and Karadonia would be international news by now and more well known.
With the tools involved and the planning, Stacy has a good idea with bringing in back-up in case anyone else but Madcap shows up. We have no idea what they are capable of in a fight yet. I hate themed crimes, especially this one. Hearing that song more than once a year is bad enough, crimes based on them make me want to hit my head into my desk. If Goldstar shows up at the museum, the place will suffer a lot more damage than it would have otherwise.
When they find out the leak who told Rick Standish about the crime, they will be charged with interfering with a police investigation at the least. Nice to see Jimenez again, even if it is only when trouble is happening. And if Goldstar did tell Standish, that would probably go against his parole and off to jail he goes. And the thief ups the ante, though no one will fall for a grown woman trying to pretend to be Madcap.
A tool to make her stand out when invisible, we have a villain who learns. Stacy is tapping into her PSI part of her PDP without even realizing it, nice. Why did Goldstar come, this is going to be bad and he is going to try and blame it on Silver Ghost for everything that goes wrong, even his own mistakes. Ouch, don't like the guy but that has to hurt, must be Exemplar 5 with the kind of power she is throwing around. And the press is there, so no helping out without being deputized like Jimenez suggest.
Madcap as a rip off of the Angel of Hell's Kitchen and Sailor Moon at the same time, she snapped and gone nuttier. Please don't let her end up like Jackrabbit. Stacy saves her and the former Madcap is so delusional that she believe this woman actually is the real Madcap I bet. And I was right, she has snapped and now believes she is Silver Ghost best friend and Golden Angel. She needs serious help, the sooner the better.
And the insanity continues, original Madcap trying to escape while being fought over, throw into the mix KoP who seem to think they are the law and can do what they want with impunity, now that is one volatile mix. And in front of the press no less they try to intimidate and threaten Silver Ghost, who states she is with the police and backed up by Jimenez. If they try anythng it is spell the beginning of the end of the KoP and Herb Goodkind.
Stacy really is showing how smart she is, making anyone who argues otherwise look like a fool, by capturing Madcap without turning to violence. Once the others find out that Goldstar's big mouth allowed Madcap to get away, he is so off the team it isn't funny. And this feels like the 1st part of a multi-part story, please say it is.

Yeah, thinking you can solve even all the problems of your friends and family could end up driving you crazy, let alone taking on all the world's problems."Do what you think is right. But don't think that you're going to solve all the problems of the world. 'Cause the world just doesn't work that way."
Nice use of Karen to explain the major troupe seen in most superhero universes of them not making major changes.

Plus plotting to have troops out at random locations and just reacting to a clear and present danger, also knocking out SG or making her look incompetent. This is going to backfire on them big time, I can't wait to see the fallout.
Hehehe, Lauren needs to learn you are never too old to enjoy decorating a Christmas tree. Poor Stacy, she has to realize there are people with a lot more experience "smoozing" people than her.

Nice analogy for the wordplay between Swashbuckler and Mrs. Chase. If he ever gives up the superhero biz, he should go into acting. And she left with an excuse, this match goes to Swashbuckler. And with plans for her to go to Whateley, dating someone local would be painful to her and him, as she would be gone a good chunk of the year for 4 years.
Another mysterious crime with no apparent motive or item stolen at first for us dear readers. By the time they catch this crook, Silver Ghost is going to want to have a long chat with them about why they did it. Parents stopping a foolish stunt by the old pulling the ear, a classic.

And the bigot pulls the mutant card as a threat, big surprise. Idiot is trying to blackmail her without thinking of the consequences of his actions, as Stacy points out. If there is a way to remove a dynamorph without killing the host or dynamorph, I say Goldstar be the first one forced to.
Thank you, Cincinnati PD for bailing her out of that situation, I think Goldstar would have tried to call her "bluff" and ended up serving time in jail, but also endangering her and everyone she cares about. Nice magic mirror portal, makes you wonder what other "toys" she has we haven't seen yet. By now it is predictable in the genre that cops not used to dealing with superhumans will overreact unless restrained by more experienced officers. Still fun to watch though, almost expect him to pee his pants from fear.
Not only is the person trying to set off Madcap trying to frame her badly, they are a theme-based criminal. If anyone makes a reference to Silver Ghost being like Batman, she will probably either feel complimented or scream in frustration. And now the other thief at the police station, just great, Stacy isn't going to get much sleep tonight unless she rest in until after noon.
And points to the Green Witch, Silver Ghost is being reckless without knowing what she is up against. This isn't Madcap, the person in their might very well use lethal force or do something horrible to her with their magic. Plus the whole special license being revoked would just add fuel to the fire. Shoot, forgot that fact about Stacy, she is afraid of being taken away from her new home and family and being sent off to Whateley, believing it will prove she is nothing but a burden. She needs to see a councilor already, with all the issues she has.
Sneaks in only to be taken down by the guy's familiar, great. And the stupid thing was able to detect her while she was invisible too. If she was in an MMORPG, she would be yelling at the Sys Admin right then "Stop nerfing my invisibility!" Sorry, couldn't resist. Cardsharp, not a bad name for a magic user who seems to specialize in using playing cards as his magical tools. Nice magic fight, I would just sit back and watch too, don't want to tick off either side. And I'm wondering if she did step on the cat's tail as well now.
3 tons of force and couldn't rip the thing off, dang, that is a well-built dingus. Too many tamper-traps, although I guess in their world it pays to be paranoid. And the villain actually planned his escape, those are the dangerous ones to deal with. Smart, knows how to plan things out, has various resources but tries not to rely too much on any one. Great, he is a magic-using Batman thief.
Ouch, even worse than I thought, a criminal Indiana Jones is scary, just think of all the artifacts he already has available to use. Goldstar is going to keep putting his foot in his mouth, he must like the taste of shoe. I've really overestimated how much the rest of the world beyond Whateley knows about stuff we as the readers have been told about. I would have thought Emperor Wilkins and Karadonia would be international news by now and more well known.
With the tools involved and the planning, Stacy has a good idea with bringing in back-up in case anyone else but Madcap shows up. We have no idea what they are capable of in a fight yet. I hate themed crimes, especially this one. Hearing that song more than once a year is bad enough, crimes based on them make me want to hit my head into my desk. If Goldstar shows up at the museum, the place will suffer a lot more damage than it would have otherwise.
When they find out the leak who told Rick Standish about the crime, they will be charged with interfering with a police investigation at the least. Nice to see Jimenez again, even if it is only when trouble is happening. And if Goldstar did tell Standish, that would probably go against his parole and off to jail he goes. And the thief ups the ante, though no one will fall for a grown woman trying to pretend to be Madcap.
A tool to make her stand out when invisible, we have a villain who learns. Stacy is tapping into her PSI part of her PDP without even realizing it, nice. Why did Goldstar come, this is going to be bad and he is going to try and blame it on Silver Ghost for everything that goes wrong, even his own mistakes. Ouch, don't like the guy but that has to hurt, must be Exemplar 5 with the kind of power she is throwing around. And the press is there, so no helping out without being deputized like Jimenez suggest.
Madcap as a rip off of the Angel of Hell's Kitchen and Sailor Moon at the same time, she snapped and gone nuttier. Please don't let her end up like Jackrabbit. Stacy saves her and the former Madcap is so delusional that she believe this woman actually is the real Madcap I bet. And I was right, she has snapped and now believes she is Silver Ghost best friend and Golden Angel. She needs serious help, the sooner the better.
And the insanity continues, original Madcap trying to escape while being fought over, throw into the mix KoP who seem to think they are the law and can do what they want with impunity, now that is one volatile mix. And in front of the press no less they try to intimidate and threaten Silver Ghost, who states she is with the police and backed up by Jimenez. If they try anythng it is spell the beginning of the end of the KoP and Herb Goodkind.
Stacy really is showing how smart she is, making anyone who argues otherwise look like a fool, by capturing Madcap without turning to violence. Once the others find out that Goldstar's big mouth allowed Madcap to get away, he is so off the team it isn't funny. And this feels like the 1st part of a multi-part story, please say it is.
Thank You for story comments appreciated and help me know me they are being read and liked.

I've just finished reading the intial ER! section (as it's currently 11pm here I'll be continuing the tale tomorrow) - it's interesting to see they're an umbrella group for a whole bunch of different organisations with different pro-mutant agendas, which probably explains why they have very ltitle political clout (they can never agree on anything!)
If only they knew that (a) such a school did exist, and (b) the consortium which launched a successful takeover bid for Marvel earlier in the year includes a couple of students...
“And, at the very least, the word about those poor kids in the Cloisters will get out,” Courtney sighed. “I mean… they don’t have a chance! I just wish that we could somehow… y’know… open a school or something for them, give them a fighting chance!”
“Please!” Lisa snorted. “A school for mutants? Marvel Comics would SUE!”

The Marvel thing is in January, so it is still in the planning stages.
I was wondering who Kirk would be, but I wasn't expecting Iron Pyrite Star.

I managed to get the reading for this one in quite early, as I was passing time by waiting for a concert to start (Rise Against, if you must know). Bloody happy to see another story from Bek, especially as it brings all the expected dry wit and mocking humour - in the opening, no less!
I just wonder if there's an actual story involving this "Planet Koozbain", whether it be past, present or future.
I do like the setup for the cluster!@#$ of events from the different groups pushing their own agendas and manipulating events, on top of the known issues such as Goldstar and Madcap. Speaking of Goldstar... Please let him get his comeuppance, the jerk?
Not sure what to make of Madcap's latest bid, but it isn't good news for Stacy, as per usual.
Looking forward to more, when it comes.

- Madcap and Silver ghost end up rooming together at Whateley
- Goldstars interference gets Madcap killed, revealing that she is his sister woûld be a very effective twist on this one.
On other speculation the fatct that Nate, Spencer and Dylan managed to actual\y capture. A dynamorph suggest that at least one of them is a mutant. Either a devisor, though this seems unlikely or a probability warper. Spences ability for mixing it up in supers fights without getting hurt could be explained by this.
Letting Madcap into Whateley would be a terrible idea. An odds mangler and power-item energizer with zero common sense on a campus filled with devisors, mages, and other odds manglers? The campus would be a smoking hole in the ground in a week.
There are plenty of sources of super-science other than mutants in the WU. Since my impression was that dynamorph holders are rarely mutants, they must be capturable without using devises.
I'm skeptical of Madcap being Nate and Goldstar's sister, because if she is then it means that people actually know her. In theory, I suppose that her parents could have hidden her away when she manifested (and her manifestation changed her personality enough that anyone who knew her before doesn't recognize Madcap), but if that was the case, how is she getting out to wreak havoc? If she's not being hidden away, then either:
a) She has a completely different personality in her secret identity (which I find unlikely)
b) The only people she has contact with are so oblivious to the outside world that they haven't heard of Madcap (which I find sad)
c) She's being managed - that is, kept by someone who knows of her powers, but is deliberately letting her cause trouble for their own ends (which I find worrisome)
d) Her odds mangling is concealing her identity with aggressively good luck (which I find terrifying)
Incidentally, if she's being managed then she's less likely to be an odds mangler - instead her "good luck" could be coming from her manager, who's using TK or something to help her out. Although why someone would be wasting the time and energy required for that level of aid on someone like Madcap is beyond me.
I suppose that she could live far enough away from Cincinnati that Madcap's antics don't reach the local news, but Madcap's doing this primarily for the attention, so choosing to play to somebody else's news cycle seems odd, and would require more forethought than I give Madcap credit for. If she's that thoughtful, then she's capable of not acting like Madcap, which goes back to a)

Yeah, throw in Wallflower as well to complete the set. Actually, that would make a hilarious and probably fairly effective training team (assuming Madcap could be made more sane) Those pinball shields are pretty powerful.

Back on topic can you imagine Sphere and Madcap in a fight? Pinball could join in to for added chaos.

Topic Author
Silver Ghost, Golden Angel Part 2 comments
Debriefing about the whole mess and Goldstar still hasn't learned to not snark at SG. Discipline and professional foe, definitely one to avoid unless you have a team backing you. "Mockcap" wants Madcap for her ability to empower burnt out power items, with how many of those there could be out there that is a terrifying thought. Goldstar tries to take charge, only to piss off Blue Streak and Violet saying nothing has changed. Mass manufacture for the thread Madcap used, did the stitching herself.
Swashbuckler has great deductive reasoning skills. Nice bit of deduction Stacy's part as well. Ouch, reasoning behind Madcap's family life and how she is treated, that would drive anyone a little around the bend to be treated like a servant in their own home. Wonder why Madcap is really doing all this, attention or just because she wants her 15 minutes of fame.
Ten-Lords-A-Leaping is a real stumper of a clue. Stacy thinking she has to be brooding on a gargoyle while on stake-out, nice Batman reference. A hologram like that, yeah, Madcap is going to fall for the obvious trap. Already incorporating her new "codename" she gave herself even. Aronhoff Center, and yeah, I don't want to think of the ways to hold that many people hostage at once, too grim.
Text only communication, rest of the team covering the exits while SG goes inside invisibly to get Madcap, this has so many ways it would go wrong with Mockcap involved. Goldstar goes storming in this time and gets people killed, the rest of team will probably hand him over to the authorities at this point as a loose cannon who is dangerous as the criminals he goes after, if not more so.
Mockcap fighting with a group of powerarmor users, with her own group of 10 men in power armors backing her up, oh boy. So much for the simply capture Madcap and lure Mockcap away, it is already gone chaotic. Crimson Claw and his goons are mixing it up with Mockcap and her goons, great, two supervillains and their henchmen. No bars, oh crud, must be a jamming device in the area, would be the smart thing for Crimson Claw to do so the authorities don't know about what is going on yet.
Great, Dylan being an idiot and thinking to "Bugs Bunny" these guys with dropped sandbags. At least Stacy gets him to see reason and pointed out what he could actually do to help. Telling Dylan what she plans to do, only to spot Nate beating up some of the villains and putting himself in danger again. A stage prop from Riverdance, how in the world did a power item end up there. Crud, gets fancy and Nate ends up getting dog-piled by Crimson Claw's goons.
At least Nate is that badly beaten up when Stacy saves him, though that power item seems awfully familiar for some reason. Great, light which can illuminate her when invisible, not good. *groans* Golden Angel aka Madcap makes some of the old Looney Tunes character look sane in comparison. Nice tools SG brought along, using holdouts already, smart girl. At least she got Nate out of there finally, came close to getting himself severely hurt if not killed. Madcap's hamster-ball of doom, too perfect.
Darn it! Finally gets her hands on Madcap in her protective bubble and the guy with the light trick spots her so she is blindsided. Inside the ball with Madcap, yikes. Spence there with some sort of high-end remote, saying he was there to see Riverdance with his family, using the remote stolen from Crimson Claw to control the dancers in power armor. Madcap actually thinks it is cool he is controlling the dancers to fight Crimson Claw, oh bother. Madcap with that remote. *groans*
A super-villain who designs things with the thought the heroes might use it to control his men to attack him, one of the more dangerous type. Cardinal Sin and The Congregation of Crime shows up, oh brother, soon we are going to need a score card to keep each side straight. It seems 'Mockcap' was Mother Superbia, a member of this new group, in disguise and now that is dropped. Liked the disguise better!
Stacy has a good idea of what to do, ruined the Madcap aka Golden Angel once again going off to capture Madcap, she is well and truly nuts.
3 of CC's goons taken out, time bombs on the exits which are disarmed with ease, doors unblocked and SWAT comes in to help get the civilians out safely. Only reason I can think of why SPECTRUM would think Stacy wanted to handle things on her own and KoP would say she called them in is one jackass, Goldstar. Have to wonder what happened with him. And she has to go back in to get Madcap, just not her day.
4 way battle, CC and his men, Cardinal Sin and the Congregation of Crime, KoP, and SG trying to save Madcap. Great, cloud of steam gives her away, if she were in an RPG the GM would be triggering complications left and right for the poor girl. All of them take aim at SG, even the KoP, manipulates Madcap into turning on her rocket boots. Perfect chaos ensues. Only for one of the 'Congregation' to grow to 10' tall and catch Madcap in her ball.
And the sound and lighting system goes off, crippling almost everyone there, ouch. Darn, electrical control panel locked down tight, never easy for her. Ah, so the golden 'chalice' might just be a grenade. Criminal masterminds taking a lot of their ideas from old Warner Brothers cartoons, oh course they do, simply, zany, and no one actually expect a serious criminal or supervillain to stoop to something like that.
Yikes, EMP grenade, nasty piece of work in the modern world. The KoP and CC's men in the power frames are stuck, systems fried and unable to move, couldn't happen to two "nicer" groups. *groans* Madcap calls SG a sidekick after she does everything and saves her. And she triggers the icy wind vortex again sending her crashing around, she is almost less of a threat when she isn't trying to help. Living Vacuum's vortex gun, hoping to neutralize the one Madcap caused. *crosses fingers* Great, it was working until an idiot in the 'Congregation' did something, causing the two vortexes to synch. And KOed by crashing through a cinderblock wall, poor SG.
Outside the theater, SG outcold, the press waiting, and Cardinal Sin gloating about no one there to save Golden Angel and what act of Divine Intervention will save her now. So of course right then from above Golden Knight shows up with Violet, Red Thunder, Captain Patriot, Azure, Blue Streak, and the Green Witch. Seeing this Cardinal Sin call only respond in one way:
Goldstar thinks SG used a mutant power to shut down the KoP armor, since it is tempest-shielded. Jarson-Kaplan Theater is signal shield to prevent people from sending cell phone images of the performances, among other reasons. Dang, so it wasn't the villains jamming things. An EMP amped like that, yikes. Goldstar trying to say Stacy gave them authorization despite several facts. 1. She doesn't know their number and would call in SPECTRUM first. 2. KoP aren't authorized to operate in Cincinnati and she wouldn't give it to them. 3. She couldn't have called them in due to the theater plus giving her cell phone to Dylan.
'Gatekeeper" between Silver's phone and the rest of the SPECTRUM hookup, only creep who fits the bill is Goldstar. They know who has been baiting Madcap, no proof about Goldstar messing with Silver yet though, rats. Cardinal Sin [CS from now on] has been at this for at least 25 years, oh boy. A war between CC and CS would be bad, we have just seen the open salvos of what could turn into a deadly fight for all around them.
Idiot Goldstar talks about removing SG from the area and Madcap will just leave, oh brother, she started all this before she ever met SG. She won't stop just because she is gone. Goldstar using the KoP like this just makes him an even bigger idiot and threat for unleashing them. when Tawny agrees with Stacy, stating they need to scale down their reaction plans, and get rid of the heavy firepower, you should listen.
Herb is a bit naïve, not seeing this might be a set-up to force the KoP's hands after the recent incident, where they are doomed whether they go or not in the eyes of the Press. These H1!, talking back and forth how they can benefit either way from what happens at the press conference. Send innocents in the potential line of fire and get bad press or don't get and Goodkind's support for them pulled, nice to see them between a rock and hard place. Gordon thinks he is cunning, I think his idea might backfire on him.
Nate, Spence, and Dylan talking about how they were heroes at the Jarman-Kaplan Theater, goofing around, getting teased about going out to wage a relentless war against Crime and Corruption. Silly group of friends, hope they don't take the idea seriously.
David, Courtney, Jennifer, Lisa, and the Matts of Evolution Rocks! having a formal meeting with Dagny, Imbas and Mills, oh boy. Great, 3 big egos who don't want anything done without having a material say in it. Well-mannered people rarely make HISTORY, Imbas is a fanatic who talks like he doesn't care who dies for the causes as long as it isn't him. Oh brother, one of those types of group, not caring to try and achieve anything as long as they are seen supporting a cause and making a name for themself in the news.
Dagny a SJW, oh great. Ow, the words out Imbas and Dagny's mouths actually hurt to read, they come across as shallow-minded idiots trying to make names for themselves instead of caring about the cause, it is frustrating. *starts banging head on desk from reading more of Dagny and Mills* Make the idiots stop! All that about how she works well with the cops and Mills says so what, arrrgggh! Dagny saying the police are no better the KoP, what the @#(!, he needs to get psychological help, probably some meds as well. David and the others have the patience of saints to put up with Dagny, Imbas and Mills, I would have had to hit them after the 3rd time spouting off some stupid idea that bashes the police alongside the KOP. Oh boy, Mills last rants has me worried about what he is plotting behind the others' backs.
*eyes bug out* Okay, what are Pro-Life and Pro-Choice movements, NRA group, and Black Rights group along with the PTA doing there, this is ridiculous. All that to make the villains trip each other up and shut up some of the idiots bad-mouthing SG, with Madcap involved it is going to be worse than a rookie RPG GM hit with the unexpected from his players. Stepping down from her hunt for Madcap, oh boy, that will set the zany one off.
Lee-Kirby Reconstruction Contractors, nice call out to some of the greats of superhero comics. Ugh, used by the KoP as a front for their teams to strike from ambush, once again without being authorized to, this time they better not just get away with it by Herb paying someone off.
I pity Travis have to organizing and deal with the logistics of setting up such demonstrations. Especially with all the potential problems that could happen with the other groups and organizations they interact with.
Uh oh, I don't like the way Mills is acting, I knew this would be bad. Exploiting mutants to take down what he sees wrong with culture and current society, Mills is a fool. Trying to get SG killed on live TV just so mutants will rise up and overthrow the "corrupt Capitalist structure", he is sick and sicken. Great, David doesn't see the wolf-in-sheep-clothing that Mills is yet. And I think he is going to have someone in one of the ponchos attack one of the H1! guys or KoP to frame it on SG, just a guess.
Two ranks of KoP in power armor showed up, earlier scene suggest there are more lying in wait. Oh boy, Stacy learns about the H1! with children being there, things are getting worse.
Mills was using Rosalee as part of his scheme, Lester handling the fuse box calls in to state she has been arrested for drug possession, suspicious as she only drank, never drugs according to Mills. Someone waiting to drive getaway, yeah, these creeps need to be ousted from Evolution Rocks! Disguising himself as a fake SG and with a weird device, Mills plans to pull off his own insane idea himself.
SG is quick, saving herself and two men, but Azure is dead, her head blown off, Mills is toast! Confusion and chaos, everyone thinking he is Golden Angel, he sets off a bomb making things worse as a headless body of a tall, athletic woman advances on them all, did Azure somehow not die by having her head blown off? Oh, good, android replica of Azure, oh course the KoP shoots it to bits, not even thinking about the innocent bystanders in the area. Ah, all of the other SPECTRUM members were piloting cybernetic decoy drones, smart.
Cardinal Sin and his followers run for after he realizes the Green Witch he took down was an android double. Ouch, feedback like that for Cal, no wonder he doesn't like dealing with magic users. When his drone takes damage he feels pain, all to be a more effective hero using his Golden Knight drone, yikes.
KoP herding Evo Rocks! and H1! like sheep, then when they think they've spotted SG they take aim with lethal weapons, morons! Ah, commandeered KoP communications link, meaning it is Crimson Claw's men in those suits, great. Using sonic weapons in an area with civilians around, oh boy. Smashing someone back and forth into the ground 'Tom and Jerry' style, too funny.
SG in trouble only for Red Thunder to rush in to the rescue! SPECTRUM has some great team tactics and works well with the local authorities, wonder how badly the guys in the KoP suits got banged up. Crimson Claw complaining about losing his deposit and overhead for the operation, bwahahaha. CC calls for a retreat while another team defends the escaping pilot as they flee their stolen KoP armors. Dang, never seem a villain team work that well together to keep heroes off each other in order to escape. Well organized and trained henchmen are worth more than 50 street thugs at least.
Okay, what do those plugs put into the KoP armors do, don't like how CC is talking right now. Oh crud, allowed them to merge into a larger, more powerful mecha, can see why Mills made the Voltron comment, got that vibe myself. Devilmaster, something from Devilmaster is how they pulled off that trick with the suits, oh boy. And Green Witch is the only one who can deal with the magic involved.
Eep, that thing can bat around the Golden Knight like a toy and hurt the hell out of Captain Patriot, this is bad. Dang it! Karen has a water spell all ready thought up and gets hit by 3 drones. And Sgt. Murrow is in trouble as well, being pulled into the monster mech and saved by Red Thunder. Saved by Tawny by being pulled out of his unit as it was being absorbed into the monster mech, guess Sgt. Murrow has a lot to think about in the future.
Yikes, Cal taking a beating through Golden Knight feedback, Swashbuckler begging him to back off and do some remote repairs, stubborn man. Blue Streak points out one thing comics gloss over, normal humans can deal with 0-to-300 mph acceleration in 5 seconds very well, let alone the speeds seen in major comics. Hhm, would holy water and a priest's blessing work to help fight this monster mech.
Well, got that answer quick, holy water can hurt it, just not enough of the stuff to do any real damage to the thing available. A knight in shining armor kneeing getting a blessing from a priest reading off a handheld digital device, priceless. And the blessing worked big time, smart thinking on Cal's part and Blue Streak.
Great, the KoP are awake, heading up an operation to deal with those who stole their armor and self-destruct though which haven't had the anti-jack removed. Great, right as Golden Knight is about to take it down, the stupid thing blows up. Shrapnel harmed civilians still in the area, bad PR for the KoP, no matter how they try to spin it. And the thing is rebuilding itself around the red capsule, extremely bad day. Everyone else is banged up but intact from the looks of things, but no sign of Stacy. Golden Knight drone repaired some, fists blessed and back into the fray.
Great, the red capsule unit is out of CC's control, things just got worse. Tawny, Azure and Green Witch being kept busy by more goons to keep Green Witch from taking out the Composite Creature as CC is calling it. And CC underestimate's SG, thinking she is just an inexperienced teenage girl who should have run by now. KoP shows up with adhesive launchers for one man in each squad, taking back the stolen suits and beating up the thieves. And CC is in full retreat mode now.
Mills trying to sneak out while watching the KoP take their suits back, only to be sent right into the hands of the authorities. Courtney, Matt, and Jennifer all implicate him in the attack and give the license plate of his buddies to the police as well. Good riddence to bad rubbish.
SG went to get Golden Knight's shield and sword back, allowing him to finish off the Composite Creature. Eww, scream from something like that, ups the creep factor easily. At least they are done with the fight for now. Oh boy, Swashbuckler having to do CPR on Cal, after all that it would be bad form for him to die.
Heroes leave the battlefield with Golden Knight drone's inert form, Stacy worrying about him. Cal is in that bad of shape, if it weren't for a teammate with CPR training, one with a pool of healing and a way to get him there quickly, he probably wouldn't have survived. Anyone who says Cal didn't go the distance that day will end up facing the wrath of his entire team. Bwahahaha! Goldstar sitting at the Civic Center waiting and missed the whole thing, just too perfect. And still more to come of Silver Ghost, Golden Angel. Can't wait.
Debriefing about the whole mess and Goldstar still hasn't learned to not snark at SG. Discipline and professional foe, definitely one to avoid unless you have a team backing you. "Mockcap" wants Madcap for her ability to empower burnt out power items, with how many of those there could be out there that is a terrifying thought. Goldstar tries to take charge, only to piss off Blue Streak and Violet saying nothing has changed. Mass manufacture for the thread Madcap used, did the stitching herself.
Swashbuckler has great deductive reasoning skills. Nice bit of deduction Stacy's part as well. Ouch, reasoning behind Madcap's family life and how she is treated, that would drive anyone a little around the bend to be treated like a servant in their own home. Wonder why Madcap is really doing all this, attention or just because she wants her 15 minutes of fame.
Ten-Lords-A-Leaping is a real stumper of a clue. Stacy thinking she has to be brooding on a gargoyle while on stake-out, nice Batman reference. A hologram like that, yeah, Madcap is going to fall for the obvious trap. Already incorporating her new "codename" she gave herself even. Aronhoff Center, and yeah, I don't want to think of the ways to hold that many people hostage at once, too grim.
Text only communication, rest of the team covering the exits while SG goes inside invisibly to get Madcap, this has so many ways it would go wrong with Mockcap involved. Goldstar goes storming in this time and gets people killed, the rest of team will probably hand him over to the authorities at this point as a loose cannon who is dangerous as the criminals he goes after, if not more so.
Mockcap fighting with a group of powerarmor users, with her own group of 10 men in power armors backing her up, oh boy. So much for the simply capture Madcap and lure Mockcap away, it is already gone chaotic. Crimson Claw and his goons are mixing it up with Mockcap and her goons, great, two supervillains and their henchmen. No bars, oh crud, must be a jamming device in the area, would be the smart thing for Crimson Claw to do so the authorities don't know about what is going on yet.
Great, Dylan being an idiot and thinking to "Bugs Bunny" these guys with dropped sandbags. At least Stacy gets him to see reason and pointed out what he could actually do to help. Telling Dylan what she plans to do, only to spot Nate beating up some of the villains and putting himself in danger again. A stage prop from Riverdance, how in the world did a power item end up there. Crud, gets fancy and Nate ends up getting dog-piled by Crimson Claw's goons.
At least Nate is that badly beaten up when Stacy saves him, though that power item seems awfully familiar for some reason. Great, light which can illuminate her when invisible, not good. *groans* Golden Angel aka Madcap makes some of the old Looney Tunes character look sane in comparison. Nice tools SG brought along, using holdouts already, smart girl. At least she got Nate out of there finally, came close to getting himself severely hurt if not killed. Madcap's hamster-ball of doom, too perfect.
Darn it! Finally gets her hands on Madcap in her protective bubble and the guy with the light trick spots her so she is blindsided. Inside the ball with Madcap, yikes. Spence there with some sort of high-end remote, saying he was there to see Riverdance with his family, using the remote stolen from Crimson Claw to control the dancers in power armor. Madcap actually thinks it is cool he is controlling the dancers to fight Crimson Claw, oh bother. Madcap with that remote. *groans*
A super-villain who designs things with the thought the heroes might use it to control his men to attack him, one of the more dangerous type. Cardinal Sin and The Congregation of Crime shows up, oh brother, soon we are going to need a score card to keep each side straight. It seems 'Mockcap' was Mother Superbia, a member of this new group, in disguise and now that is dropped. Liked the disguise better!
Stacy has a good idea of what to do, ruined the Madcap aka Golden Angel once again going off to capture Madcap, she is well and truly nuts.
Wondering if Fubar might be afraid to try and enter her mind after the first attempt. 4 KoP in full battle gear show up, SG sends out a decoy which gets cut down, if she could show this to SPECTRUM it would mean serious trouble for the KoP."What does she think she's DOING?" "She thinks?" Spence shot back.
3 of CC's goons taken out, time bombs on the exits which are disarmed with ease, doors unblocked and SWAT comes in to help get the civilians out safely. Only reason I can think of why SPECTRUM would think Stacy wanted to handle things on her own and KoP would say she called them in is one jackass, Goldstar. Have to wonder what happened with him. And she has to go back in to get Madcap, just not her day.
4 way battle, CC and his men, Cardinal Sin and the Congregation of Crime, KoP, and SG trying to save Madcap. Great, cloud of steam gives her away, if she were in an RPG the GM would be triggering complications left and right for the poor girl. All of them take aim at SG, even the KoP, manipulates Madcap into turning on her rocket boots. Perfect chaos ensues. Only for one of the 'Congregation' to grow to 10' tall and catch Madcap in her ball.
And the sound and lighting system goes off, crippling almost everyone there, ouch. Darn, electrical control panel locked down tight, never easy for her. Ah, so the golden 'chalice' might just be a grenade. Criminal masterminds taking a lot of their ideas from old Warner Brothers cartoons, oh course they do, simply, zany, and no one actually expect a serious criminal or supervillain to stoop to something like that.
Yikes, EMP grenade, nasty piece of work in the modern world. The KoP and CC's men in the power frames are stuck, systems fried and unable to move, couldn't happen to two "nicer" groups. *groans* Madcap calls SG a sidekick after she does everything and saves her. And she triggers the icy wind vortex again sending her crashing around, she is almost less of a threat when she isn't trying to help. Living Vacuum's vortex gun, hoping to neutralize the one Madcap caused. *crosses fingers* Great, it was working until an idiot in the 'Congregation' did something, causing the two vortexes to synch. And KOed by crashing through a cinderblock wall, poor SG.
Outside the theater, SG outcold, the press waiting, and Cardinal Sin gloating about no one there to save Golden Angel and what act of Divine Intervention will save her now. So of course right then from above Golden Knight shows up with Violet, Red Thunder, Captain Patriot, Azure, Blue Streak, and the Green Witch. Seeing this Cardinal Sin call only respond in one way:
"Wow, I really walked right into that one, didn't I?"
Goldstar thinks SG used a mutant power to shut down the KoP armor, since it is tempest-shielded. Jarson-Kaplan Theater is signal shield to prevent people from sending cell phone images of the performances, among other reasons. Dang, so it wasn't the villains jamming things. An EMP amped like that, yikes. Goldstar trying to say Stacy gave them authorization despite several facts. 1. She doesn't know their number and would call in SPECTRUM first. 2. KoP aren't authorized to operate in Cincinnati and she wouldn't give it to them. 3. She couldn't have called them in due to the theater plus giving her cell phone to Dylan.
'Gatekeeper" between Silver's phone and the rest of the SPECTRUM hookup, only creep who fits the bill is Goldstar. They know who has been baiting Madcap, no proof about Goldstar messing with Silver yet though, rats. Cardinal Sin [CS from now on] has been at this for at least 25 years, oh boy. A war between CC and CS would be bad, we have just seen the open salvos of what could turn into a deadly fight for all around them.
Idiot Goldstar talks about removing SG from the area and Madcap will just leave, oh brother, she started all this before she ever met SG. She won't stop just because she is gone. Goldstar using the KoP like this just makes him an even bigger idiot and threat for unleashing them. when Tawny agrees with Stacy, stating they need to scale down their reaction plans, and get rid of the heavy firepower, you should listen.
Herb is a bit naïve, not seeing this might be a set-up to force the KoP's hands after the recent incident, where they are doomed whether they go or not in the eyes of the Press. These H1!, talking back and forth how they can benefit either way from what happens at the press conference. Send innocents in the potential line of fire and get bad press or don't get and Goodkind's support for them pulled, nice to see them between a rock and hard place. Gordon thinks he is cunning, I think his idea might backfire on him.
Nate, Spence, and Dylan talking about how they were heroes at the Jarman-Kaplan Theater, goofing around, getting teased about going out to wage a relentless war against Crime and Corruption. Silly group of friends, hope they don't take the idea seriously.
David, Courtney, Jennifer, Lisa, and the Matts of Evolution Rocks! having a formal meeting with Dagny, Imbas and Mills, oh boy. Great, 3 big egos who don't want anything done without having a material say in it. Well-mannered people rarely make HISTORY, Imbas is a fanatic who talks like he doesn't care who dies for the causes as long as it isn't him. Oh brother, one of those types of group, not caring to try and achieve anything as long as they are seen supporting a cause and making a name for themself in the news.
Dagny a SJW, oh great. Ow, the words out Imbas and Dagny's mouths actually hurt to read, they come across as shallow-minded idiots trying to make names for themselves instead of caring about the cause, it is frustrating. *starts banging head on desk from reading more of Dagny and Mills* Make the idiots stop! All that about how she works well with the cops and Mills says so what, arrrgggh! Dagny saying the police are no better the KoP, what the @#(!, he needs to get psychological help, probably some meds as well. David and the others have the patience of saints to put up with Dagny, Imbas and Mills, I would have had to hit them after the 3rd time spouting off some stupid idea that bashes the police alongside the KOP. Oh boy, Mills last rants has me worried about what he is plotting behind the others' backs.
*eyes bug out* Okay, what are Pro-Life and Pro-Choice movements, NRA group, and Black Rights group along with the PTA doing there, this is ridiculous. All that to make the villains trip each other up and shut up some of the idiots bad-mouthing SG, with Madcap involved it is going to be worse than a rookie RPG GM hit with the unexpected from his players. Stepping down from her hunt for Madcap, oh boy, that will set the zany one off.
Lee-Kirby Reconstruction Contractors, nice call out to some of the greats of superhero comics. Ugh, used by the KoP as a front for their teams to strike from ambush, once again without being authorized to, this time they better not just get away with it by Herb paying someone off.
I pity Travis have to organizing and deal with the logistics of setting up such demonstrations. Especially with all the potential problems that could happen with the other groups and organizations they interact with.
Uh oh, I don't like the way Mills is acting, I knew this would be bad. Exploiting mutants to take down what he sees wrong with culture and current society, Mills is a fool. Trying to get SG killed on live TV just so mutants will rise up and overthrow the "corrupt Capitalist structure", he is sick and sicken. Great, David doesn't see the wolf-in-sheep-clothing that Mills is yet. And I think he is going to have someone in one of the ponchos attack one of the H1! guys or KoP to frame it on SG, just a guess.
Two ranks of KoP in power armor showed up, earlier scene suggest there are more lying in wait. Oh boy, Stacy learns about the H1! with children being there, things are getting worse.
Mills was using Rosalee as part of his scheme, Lester handling the fuse box calls in to state she has been arrested for drug possession, suspicious as she only drank, never drugs according to Mills. Someone waiting to drive getaway, yeah, these creeps need to be ousted from Evolution Rocks! Disguising himself as a fake SG and with a weird device, Mills plans to pull off his own insane idea himself.
SG is quick, saving herself and two men, but Azure is dead, her head blown off, Mills is toast! Confusion and chaos, everyone thinking he is Golden Angel, he sets off a bomb making things worse as a headless body of a tall, athletic woman advances on them all, did Azure somehow not die by having her head blown off? Oh, good, android replica of Azure, oh course the KoP shoots it to bits, not even thinking about the innocent bystanders in the area. Ah, all of the other SPECTRUM members were piloting cybernetic decoy drones, smart.
Cardinal Sin and his followers run for after he realizes the Green Witch he took down was an android double. Ouch, feedback like that for Cal, no wonder he doesn't like dealing with magic users. When his drone takes damage he feels pain, all to be a more effective hero using his Golden Knight drone, yikes.
KoP herding Evo Rocks! and H1! like sheep, then when they think they've spotted SG they take aim with lethal weapons, morons! Ah, commandeered KoP communications link, meaning it is Crimson Claw's men in those suits, great. Using sonic weapons in an area with civilians around, oh boy. Smashing someone back and forth into the ground 'Tom and Jerry' style, too funny.
SG in trouble only for Red Thunder to rush in to the rescue! SPECTRUM has some great team tactics and works well with the local authorities, wonder how badly the guys in the KoP suits got banged up. Crimson Claw complaining about losing his deposit and overhead for the operation, bwahahaha. CC calls for a retreat while another team defends the escaping pilot as they flee their stolen KoP armors. Dang, never seem a villain team work that well together to keep heroes off each other in order to escape. Well organized and trained henchmen are worth more than 50 street thugs at least.
Okay, what do those plugs put into the KoP armors do, don't like how CC is talking right now. Oh crud, allowed them to merge into a larger, more powerful mecha, can see why Mills made the Voltron comment, got that vibe myself. Devilmaster, something from Devilmaster is how they pulled off that trick with the suits, oh boy. And Green Witch is the only one who can deal with the magic involved.
Eep, that thing can bat around the Golden Knight like a toy and hurt the hell out of Captain Patriot, this is bad. Dang it! Karen has a water spell all ready thought up and gets hit by 3 drones. And Sgt. Murrow is in trouble as well, being pulled into the monster mech and saved by Red Thunder. Saved by Tawny by being pulled out of his unit as it was being absorbed into the monster mech, guess Sgt. Murrow has a lot to think about in the future.
Yikes, Cal taking a beating through Golden Knight feedback, Swashbuckler begging him to back off and do some remote repairs, stubborn man. Blue Streak points out one thing comics gloss over, normal humans can deal with 0-to-300 mph acceleration in 5 seconds very well, let alone the speeds seen in major comics. Hhm, would holy water and a priest's blessing work to help fight this monster mech.
Well, got that answer quick, holy water can hurt it, just not enough of the stuff to do any real damage to the thing available. A knight in shining armor kneeing getting a blessing from a priest reading off a handheld digital device, priceless. And the blessing worked big time, smart thinking on Cal's part and Blue Streak.
Great, the KoP are awake, heading up an operation to deal with those who stole their armor and self-destruct though which haven't had the anti-jack removed. Great, right as Golden Knight is about to take it down, the stupid thing blows up. Shrapnel harmed civilians still in the area, bad PR for the KoP, no matter how they try to spin it. And the thing is rebuilding itself around the red capsule, extremely bad day. Everyone else is banged up but intact from the looks of things, but no sign of Stacy. Golden Knight drone repaired some, fists blessed and back into the fray.
Great, the red capsule unit is out of CC's control, things just got worse. Tawny, Azure and Green Witch being kept busy by more goons to keep Green Witch from taking out the Composite Creature as CC is calling it. And CC underestimate's SG, thinking she is just an inexperienced teenage girl who should have run by now. KoP shows up with adhesive launchers for one man in each squad, taking back the stolen suits and beating up the thieves. And CC is in full retreat mode now.
Mills trying to sneak out while watching the KoP take their suits back, only to be sent right into the hands of the authorities. Courtney, Matt, and Jennifer all implicate him in the attack and give the license plate of his buddies to the police as well. Good riddence to bad rubbish.
SG went to get Golden Knight's shield and sword back, allowing him to finish off the Composite Creature. Eww, scream from something like that, ups the creep factor easily. At least they are done with the fight for now. Oh boy, Swashbuckler having to do CPR on Cal, after all that it would be bad form for him to die.
Heroes leave the battlefield with Golden Knight drone's inert form, Stacy worrying about him. Cal is in that bad of shape, if it weren't for a teammate with CPR training, one with a pool of healing and a way to get him there quickly, he probably wouldn't have survived. Anyone who says Cal didn't go the distance that day will end up facing the wrath of his entire team. Bwahahaha! Goldstar sitting at the Civic Center waiting and missed the whole thing, just too perfect. And still more to come of Silver Ghost, Golden Angel. Can't wait.

OMG! That looks awesome! Silver and Gold! Male and Female! All those nice artistic binaries!
So, Cal and Karen aren't a couple, right? I'm shipping them, anyone else?
Ha!
...
Then, out of the wreckage, the Golden Knights’ heater shield came flying into the composite beast, separating it from the Knight. Then he heard a young female voice call out, “SIR KNIGHT!” Turning, he saw the Silver Ghost throw his sword to him (hilt first, thank you). It flew with uncanny accuracy to his hand, and he wheeled around, spotting a single chink in the armor of debris burned away by the shield. That revealed a patch of red plastic about the size of a man’s hand. He thrust into the irregular ‘bullseye’, burying his sword into it, up to the hilt.
OMG! That looks awesome! Silver and Gold! Male and Female! All those nice artistic binaries!
“Dammit, Cal, stay with me!” Swash said as he furiously applied CPR. “Do you have any IDEA of what Karen will do to me, if I let you die?”
...
Swash gave an amused smirk in Cal’s general direction. “True. But then, having wife and daughter substitutes fuss over you is all the hero’s reward that a man his age can really ask for.”
So, Cal and Karen aren't a couple, right? I'm shipping them, anyone else?
Back at the Civic Center, a scrawny figure in gold lame hovered over the battle scene. “HEY! WADDYA MEAN THEY STARTED WITHOUT ME?”
Ha!

Now that you put it into my head; Yes. Yes I am.
Mmmph, I also agree I hope we don't have to wait until 2017 to get the next installment. Aren't the 12 days of Christmas still going on?
I have a few other comments, but I think I'll post them over in the character pages.
I am a caffeine heathen; I prefer the waters of the mountain over the juice of the bean. Keep the Dews coming and no one will be hurt.

Ok, I have no idea how SPECTRUM puts up with Golden Excon but he has definitely gone beyond the limit of what is tollerable, it has reached the point that it's criminal behaviour. And the KoP, they were the ones that turned the SG decoy into a replica of a chunk of swiss cheese, weren't they? That would be attempted murder, AGAIN, against a minor, and this time they can't claim they don't know she's deputized.
Anyway, after the shitstorm at the theater the KoP are still in Cincy due to the power of money, however getting their armors stolen by Crimson Claw they have proven that they can't be trusted of having military hardware even if they don't deploy it, even worse they selfdestructed them close to the crowd, causing collateral damage and nuking PECTRUM and the PD forces in the process..... I want to see how H1! manages to push their Anti SG/Pro KoP agenda after that.
The part that makes me sick is that at the end of the Birthday Brawl the KoP get good PR due taking the merit for Team Kimba's actions and they could get several contracts, including Cincinnati....... On the other hand, seeing Mills getting shafted was extremely satisfying.

KoP in Birthday Brawl getting credit serves the purpose of keeping attention off Team Kimba, but that was one incident, in another state, where all parties involved communicated with each other and agreed to work together, in Cinci, the KoP are sloppy, they don't have a plan and they refuse to play nice, and they have multiple instances of screwing everything up.

Just found out about this...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_Museum_...er_at_Union_Terminal
Yes. Cincinnati has MUSEUMS at the building that inspired the HALL OF JUSTICE in SUPERFRIENDS.
How come it hasn't been mentioned in the Silver Ghost stories?
Or has it, and I just forgot?

I'm pretty sure in every other story besides Fistful of Chaka that Aunghadhail called herself the Ninth Queen of the West. So that is probably a typo in Fistul of Chaka and the wiki is outdated. Though I could be wrong.null0trooper wrote:
Malady wrote: I'm quite sure you're joking, but just in case... I think the Sidhe Queens are all sisters, just sisters, not sister-mothers, and their ordering is just based on birth order?
Setting that aside, Aunghadhail is the Seventh Queen of the West on the wiki and in "A Fistful of Chaka". In "Silver Ghost, Golden Angel" she's referred to as the Ninth, by Madb who claims to be the Eighth. In "Dawn of the Aurora", Aegloswen is declared Seventh of the Nine Queens.
The numbers could just be their realms' seniority among the nine that count, not necessarliy their individual seniority.
Or, one of them could be mistaken, or lying.
