Seattle Superhero Avoids Charges


Pheonix Jones, the great-grandson of The Crimson Compiler, and Cleopatra Jones, has been found not guilty on all charges due to complete ineffectiveness in combat, and a rubber suit which masks his ability to hear screams such as, "Stop, we're Raving!" and, "No my eyes!!! It burns my eyes!"

... but must register his mind with the Greater Seattle Personal Accountability Board as a completely non-lethal weapon, and must verify he is a low carbon emitter.

However Nick Fury and the Feds still wanna talk to him about his outdated Superhero Registration Card, or he could be looking at 10 to 15 on Riker's Island.

This case could still take a strange twist if the Rain City Superhero Board decides to Occupy the Ultimates Marvel Universe sometime in the 23rd and a third century, as previously planned.

Stay tuned True Believers...

I am reminded of the short story, "Avatar" by Mike Baron*, which deals with what happens to those who play superhero, without having any powers.



*found in the anthology Masked, edited by Lou Anders - a book I heartily recommend for folks who like the Superhero genre.

I think of the old "Hill Street Blues" episodes with Captain Freedom ("pow, where I walk buildings shake and bad guys we their pants!"). His career didn't end so well either (multiple gun shot wounds).
