New Exarchs #12 - "Waiting for Gouda": Meanwhile, back in 000SUPERGUY, Hans Zwarghoff faces two adorable children. He's SO doomed.

Edit: Oops, forgot to non-relative the link. :)

Hot on the heels of The League #3, it's The League #4! Featuring tourism, the historical origin of Mastermind/Ops, a bit more of the Genocide story arc I never actually wrote in ALU, some private history of Elizabeth and Alice/Ms. Mercury/Momentum, some people who speak in all caps, and another City of Heroes parody.

The Trudis, for those curious, are parodies of the Carnival of Shadows.

It's entirely Jesse Taylor's fault that instead of porcelain masks, they have macramé.

And for the record, the entire city of Salem is a parody of the Croatoa city zone.

The League #3 is your friend!

For those who came in late, we also have Parts one, two and three of The League #1, and parts one and two of The League #2.

But, this is a post about The League #3. And now, a few basic notes.

Egoiste was, of course, a founding member of the Unimaginable League Amoral, as was his sister Gabrielle, aka Armory. "Goldenrage" was the former Badsport, and was a second generation Nubermachine-based ULA member -- as was "Incendiary."

The Leonard Maltin Groupies are a parody of the Malta Group, a high level set of total bastards one fights in City of Heroes. "Ingress Tech" is a parody of Portal Corp.

That should do. Please enjoy.

Well, good friends, I found out that some potential lifeforms on the planet had not yet read the series, so in the interest of increasing our readership, perhaps into the double digits (gasp). I thought it'd be helpful to post the links here to the story so far, in order.

Moving forward, now that I am on the Livejournal site, I will be sure to alert y'all when a new episode is up.

15 years, I can't believe its that long I've been writing about Spectrum.

The Iron Man movie will probably be out before I finally resolve what the Lemurs did with that stolen armor, so I guess I can parody a fight scene from the movie the the armors collide.  (What Lemurs?  What armor? [IR])

Cover Art, Penguin Author, Blah, zim, fishbone, I Make Stuff Up
I need a serious refresher course on the nature and structure of 000SUPERGUY Hell(TM).  I seem to remember something about a Mongolian yurt, but that couldn't possibly be right...could it?  I wanted to send some characters there, so I need a general lay of the land.

Thanks!!!

27th-Feb-2008 08:16 pm - pointless angst.
I just noticed that there is no handy collected Industrial Revolution.

There's no point to this post, I just thought voicing my complaints into the indifferent abyss of the internet would please me.

ASH, goggles, Tribarrel, Laelapis, peep, kiryu
"Ugly American gray squirrels must die" is the headline of an article in the latest issue of The Week magazine. (It refers to how the invasive Gray species is wiping out the native Reds in England, not to mention wreaking general ecological havoc. Jonkatta agrees with the article's sentiment.)

You know, it's just possible I'll finish this story before the decade is out. Maybe. Depending on how you like measuring decades.

Hello, there, everyone, Mongo and I have just returned from our fabulous three-year vacation in sunny Mexico, where the livin's easy, as long as you don't lose your passports and other ID in a poker game to anyone named 'El Jefe.' (Believe me, we had to learn *that* the hard way.)

Logs 1276 through 1304, covering the 'missing years' 2005 to the end of 2007, are now available via the Autocollector and good ol' FTP, consist of these titles and episodes:

The Roger Thompson Chronicles 1-6 (AA)
HMS Golden Lance 28-37 (SF)
The Return of Ignorantman (SG)
Universal Solvents 18-19 (SF)
Aurora 44-48 (SG)
Paradigm Incorporated 5-7 (SG)
West Coast Defenders 36-45 (SG)
Churn (AA)

I'm still a bit on the info-dumpy side in this one, though much of it this time around revolves around new situations and characters, rather than catching up on familiar ones. It helps now that I actually know where I'm going with this, and have sketched out in some detail how I'm going to get there. Besides, any episode that includes ninjas, zombies, and wanton use of the word 'rococo' can't be all bad, right?

creature, monkey, eyeswim, mask
Having knocked the rust off my Superguy writing with last month's Rad episode, I thought I'd turn to my even-longer corroding Sfstory series, Universal Solvents, to see if I could kick it back in gear. Lo, here are the results:

Universal Solvents #19, part one of two
Universal Solvents #19, part two of two

For more info on what Sfstory is, and how it relates to Superguy, check out the succinct but essentially accurate Wikipedia entry on Sfstory, and of course the always-useful Sfstory Archives.

circeus elmo media child mighty quinn st
Just checking in, this is Elmo.  Though these days most online folks know me as Circeus... or Todd... or, "that guy who got the devs to screw with my favorite MMO because he can't keep his frakin' mouth shut!"  It's good to see everyone congregating, even better to see more stories.  Jumping back into the fray is highly tempting, though I'd probably need to touch base with Eric (considering my characters were Boston based also).
