tats right i retconned doctor lasers name to doctor raygun. honestly i don't know what i was thinking with doctor laser

A letter to the editor

I whoop and holler as I run. Free as a bird I can practically fly. I see sirens below ahead, across the street. It’s a jewelry store. This means its either Villain of The Week or regular robbers, well it could be Captain Raygun. I spin my grappling hook; with a press of a button the line goes taunt. I walk across, its easy, like a balance beam. Then all I have to do is pick a lock and I’m in. As, I walk down the stairs I hear screams.

“this isn’t real I’m not real”

“colors I see colors”

Welp looks like its not ordinary robbers. I don my gas mask in case. Pull out my hand mirror and peak around the corner. There she is Villain of the Week admiring herself in the mirror. She takes a step toward the counter to try on more jewelry.

Suddenly our hero slumps to the ground. I see white? That’s not right my gas mask should have protected me. the villain of this tale is many things, entitled, impulsive, yet sadly for our dear hero unobservant isn’t one of them. She smiles and begins to saunter over. she savors the moment, its not every day you get to kill a hero. She raises her foot.

foot and then I catch it before she can stomp on my throat. The part of me not in this bizarre white space feels the shoe connect with my hand. They are high healed because that’s the best footwear for a robbery obviously. ok this seems to be like fighting the rhyming rapscallion. So, I guess I defeat her what? I said I defeat her. Dude this is a story you can’t just jump to the end like that. It’s boring. Ok I uuh… shove her shoe hard up.

She falls back, landing next to a security guard. I jump up and charge trying to push my advantage. She grabs the guard’s gun. Shit, I jump over her and flip over the center island counter. Three shots are fired in rapid succession, one hits the ceiling, one wizzes by your ear, you don’t know where the third one went. The counter is a visual barrier but it’s not bullet proof, I crawl along trying to get to one of the two openings in the counter squares side. Another two gun shots go off bullets hit the ground where you once where “I don’t know how your resisting my power Falcon but” I interrupt her by throwing a knife. You miss. What no I don’t miss. Your basically in a hallucinogenic haze, you miss. Wait is this drugs? She whips the gun around. I shove myself back and upward in one fluid motion as a grab a hacky sack. A simple squeeze and I throw center of mass. You the chunks of marble blown out of the pillar next to. you the sack hits, it explodes with a woomf and a flash of light. I charge, punch to the bridge of the noise, spin her around and sleeper hold.

Wait if I’m in this weird writer space how am I supposed to know when to stop? We can assume her power is a conscious thing she wields. What makes you say that? Well its not like there have been reports of this stuff happening all week. Ok sure that makes sense.

So like your god right? Well, yeah. And that means you control everything, right? Not everything, you did your fair share of controlling in that fight. Yeah but you let her have this power in the first place. True. why? IDK man this went differently in my head, I figured you would ask deep questions or something. Something like why you gave me such bad anxiety? Yeah

…oh, you want an answer, ok so like I developed an anxiety disorder and it threw my life out of whack and I just wanted to see a hero succeed despite having my problem but worse, I guess. So, what we are all just your playthings to project your issues onto? Well no this whole thing stems from my love of comics, I wanted a world with my ideas and where higher ups can’t say you have to kill this character, or make him more relatable, or angsty, god there’s so much angst. didn’t stop you from writing operation sphinx. Yeah honestly, I feel kind of bad about that, but I came up with you guys first and I needed to retro actively justify the state of the world. Something angsty just worked well for the situation. Hey, she’s almost unconscious, I’m going to give you a narrative free be, and remember I love you.

Ok uhm and though he had his struggles Gray Falcon’s life “worked out for the best” I’m holding Villain of the Week in a sleeper hold. She is still breathing.  I think about how weird that fight was while I’m back on the roofs. Was any of it real? Probably life gets so god damn weird when I put on this costume. I hope the last part of my ‘narrative free be’ got through. Oh well. There’s a siren in the distance. I smile ‘toon in next week dear readers to find out’ I say as I begin my sprint.

June 14, 2015 - Grey Falcon, Blue Hawk, or Smoke Hawk (Falco hypoleucos)

Requested by: antennas--to--heaven

These rare falcons are found only in Australia. The majority of their diet is made up of birds, although they also eat some small mammals, reptiles, insects, and carrion. Often seen in small groups of adults and several of their first-year offspring, they usually hunt by dropping from a perch, or sometimes catch their prey in flight. They use abandoned nests of other raptors or corvids, often reusing them for several years. Classified as Vulnerable, their population is estimated at under 1,000 birds.

"Remember, when the nuns tell you to beware of the deceptions of men who make love to you, that the mind of man is on the whole less tortuous when he is love-making than at any other time. It is when he speaks of governments and armies that he utters strange and dangerous nonsense to please the bats at the back of his soul. This is all to your disadvantage, for in love-making you might meet him with lies of equal force, but there are few repartees that the female governed can make to the male governess."
