Panel one: A low angle view as the people of Impact City get out of their cars and scatter onto the streets as they look up at the pirate ship (a brigantine) as a twenty foot hologram of the Blue Pirate is in the air. The Blue Pirate has a long thin blue goatee and wearing a blue and purple waistcoat and velvet blue breeches. He has a golden belt that is nearly covered by a sky blue sash. His satin pirate hat is blue with a dark purple feather on it. He has various blue topaz gems as ornaments on his waste coat. So he's pretty much a dandy.

Blue Pirate: Ahoy, landlovers! It is I—The Blue Pirate

Blue Pirate: 'Belay that scurrying 'bout and pay heed to the dashing captain aboard his ship, The Topaz Terror.

Panel two: The people of Impact City look around in fright.

Blue Pirate off-panel: I know you fear for your lives. You should.

Blue Pirate: My ship is armed with plasma cannons that could sink your port to Davy Jones' locker.

Panel three: A plasma cannon hits the ground behind the people from above as they are knocked back by the explosion and several people are caught in the blast.

THOOOMM

Blue Pirate: My apologies for my poor form—

Blue Pirate: --But I want you all to be sure that my band and I are deadly serious.

Panel four: The Blue Pirate hologram motions over at the pirate ship and the pirate flag with a blue skull on it.

The Blue Pirate: You have one hour to leave your bank vaults open and your personal wealth pilled upon the streets to be claimed as my treasure--

Blue Pirate: --If not, I lower my dashing Jolly Rodger and hoist debonair red flag.

Panel five: The Blue Pirate hologram fades as he smirks and curls up his right mustache with his right index finger.

The Blue Pirate: I'm sure you all know what that means. I'll leave you to the matter at hand.

Panel one: A shot of the pirate ship as all the Blue Pirate's men are aboard deck at the bow. The Blue Pirate has a high tech pirate binoculars out as he looks down at Impact City. All of the Blue Pirate's crew are wearing traditional pirate clothing but much less flattering than The Blue Pirate. All of them are tall and muscular. All are wearing the same gold belt as The Blue Pirate but that's where their shared fashion ends. One pirate is mopping the deck with a bucket and mop. A pirate is at the helm. A pirate is on the crows nest as he cleans his teeth with the edge of his cutlass. Another pirate is at the helm and piloting the ship. Peeking his head out at the end of the ship is The Fox.

The Blue Captain: Men gather 'round! For we, the ancestors of pirates, the blood of buccaneers seering in our veins, stand at the precipice of the new pirate age!

The Blue Captain: The wealth of the seven seas are ours to collect and plunder as we may!

Caption: ...Or you could have not gotten a high tech, weaponized, hover ship designed like an amusement park ride and kept your money and stayed rich.

Panel two: A close-up on the Fox as several more pirates walk away and gather to The Blue Pirate.

Caption: How do bad guys afford these weird gimmicks? I can't even afford premium channels!

Panel three: Over the shoulder of the Fox as he peers across the ship as the Blue Pirates begin to celebrate and drink meed and whiskey.

Caption: And why "The Blue Pirate"? Why not the Blue Buccaneer? Alliteration is always awesome.

Panel four: The Fox tilts his head and raises an eyebrow as he is in deep thought deciding what he should do. As the pirate mopping the deck is heading his way.

Caption: So when I start kicking butt, I could make up a battle cry or talk like Robert Newton.

Caption: Decisions, Decisions...

The Blue Pirate: Bones and brimstone! How dare you board my vessel uninvited! It's uncouth!

Panel three: The Blue Pirate points his cutlass ahead to signal for his crew to attack as his crew grin wickedly. Some are holding chains that they are stretching, brandishing or, sling over head while others have brass knuckles or daggers.

The Blue Pirate: I want that cad off my ship! How many pieces you have to throw overboard is up to you, me hearties!

Panel four: The Fox strikes a fighting pose as he looks ahead at all the pirates coming his way. One pirate is up front and slinging his chain at the Fox

Pirate two: Dance the hempen jig with you!

The Fox: Sorry. I only know the Foxtrot.

Caption: I hate this. I want to be home with my family. Instead I'm in a Pirate of the Caribbean movie—and not the good one.

Page 10

Panel one: The Fox extends his arm with his bent elbow and flexes his arm as he lets the chain wrap around his forearm as he pulls the chain towards his body.

Fox: Y'know, you guys are pirates. Smell like cheap brew, the dirty clothes, you look like rejects a century over—you're perfect! But that captain is all wrong.

Panel two: The Fox punches the pirate with the chain back towards several other pirates charging him.

The Fox: Might I recommend Monkey D. Luffy? Future king of the pirates. I know you've heard of him.

Caption: Hey, I lived in Japan. I rode the shinkansen. You read manga to pass the time while you travel 320km/h in utmost comfort.

Panel three: The Fox is ducking a pirate slashing at him with a cutlass as he has both his fists prepared to strike.

Caption: I'm over thirty and I read manga. I think that's pretty hip.

Panel four: The Fox leaping uppercuts the pirate and knocks him out.

The Fox: SHORYUKEN!!!

Caption: I also like Street Fighter.


Caption: I tried to get Shinji interested in both, but he thinks he's too cool for school and Mae likes Bleach (I love her, so I try not to hold it against her).

Caption: I wonder if Kelly likes manga or plays video games? Girls are into this stuff, right?


Panel five: The Fox throws the unconscious pirate at the rest of the crew as they all fall back in a giant heap.

Fox: Yes. Yes, I can.


Page 11

Panel one: The Fox is surrounded as pirates have snuck up all around him and climbing down the mast with their daggers clenched in between their teeth. The Fox is trying to call time out with his hands as he tries to make light of the situation.

The Fox: Parlay! Parlay!

The Fox It's not working. Am I missing something? Secret eye squint? Is it because I don't have a peg leg or a parrot?

Captions: Okay, advantages I have:

Panel two: The Fox jumping back kicks one pirate as he uses both fists to punch a pirate as he leaps in the air.

Caption: I'm a better dresser.

SFX: KRAK WWUM

Caption: Darn lack of social skills.

Fox: Ow! Ow! Watch the kidneys! Watch the kidneys!


Panel six: Three of the pirates are holding The Fox down on his knees as The Blue Pirate walks into the right corner of the panel. The Fox is looking up as he has several stars swirling over his head to show he got worked over.

Caption: ...And now I've got them where I want them. In a state of complete over-confidence.

The Blue Pirate: A fine attempt. Not exactly dashing, but somewhat commendable.

Page 12

Panel one: The Blue Pirate uses the edge of his cutlass at the bottom of The Fox's chin to lift his head up.

The Blue Pirate: I am a gentleman who lives his life on good form.

The Blue Pirate: So I offer you a last request before I end your existence.

Panel two: The Fox looks up as he is seemingly thinking hard.

Panel three: The Fox has a light bulb over his head as comes up with what he's decided.

Panel four: The Fox has a giant smile you can see through his mask as he mocks The Blue Pirate.

The Fox: Well, Captain Morgan, I'd like the lobster platter, a small diet soda, side of fries, and one of those small little cups of cocktail sauce.

Panel five: The Fox is being tossed overboard head first as he is wide eyed.

Caption: Your ship is stupid! It doesn't even have a plank to do this properly! Huh. That was pretty good. Wonder why I'm not saying this outloud?

Caption: At the outer edge of The Milky Way Galaxy.


Panel one: A shot of a scout ship as it begins to set off a tractor beam into a nearby asteroid field. The ship is spiral shaped with two massive propulsion engines to the right and left side of the ship that is losing power. The tractor beam is coming out of the tip of the space ship. At the bottom of the ship an opening is let out for various triangular space probes to reenter.

Inside of scout ship: Conqueror Lrak this is Scout Ship 45Z reporting.

Inside of the scout ship: Our search in this desolate region of the universe has only identified one known planet in the nearby galaxy as inhabiting sentient life--

Panel two: Inside of the space ship we see a blue skinned alien wearing black and purple space armor with similar looking crew kneeling down at  a distorted hologram of a larger four armed, seven foot tall alien with a dog like appearance. Lrak looks on with all four arms crossed over his massive chest as his eyes glow bright red that somehow overpower the grey and blue hologram. Exact details of Conqueror Lrak are hidden by the blue and grey lighting of the hologram. Inside of the scout ship we see various panels and high tech computers that are just barely running thanks to the tractor beam use.

Alien: Lord, given how far away this one planet is from the empire and the time and energy it would take to travel...and our ship is already running low on power ...

Alien: ...May I recommend that...

Panel three: Conqueuor Lrak turns his head slightly as he shows off his fanged teeth smiling wickedly as his answer as the other alien cowers and lowers his head as he shakes.

Alien: Y-yes...

Alien: Yes, Conqueror Lrak. The challenge of worth shall begin at once--

Panel four: A close-up on a nearly 300 foot wide asteroid being repulsed by the scout ship as it shatters much smaller asteroids and space debris as it rockets at astonishing speed as it heads out for the targeted destination giving off heat and green repulse ray energy.

Panel one: A high angle view of Explorer Mountain as it surrounded by a forest and a nearby lake.

Caption: Explorer Mountain. Riverdale, USA. Earth.

Gizmo inside: Computo, security scans and global alarms detect nothing?

Explorer Supercomputer inside of the Explorer Mountain: Confirmed, Creator: Gizmo. Scans show no immediate threats. Systems operating at 100%.  Begin monitoring remote orbital satellites?

Gizmo: Please do as I finish...YES!

Panel two: Inside of Explorer Mountain's control room as Gizmo is just now closing a panel to the Explorer Super Computer as he looks over at his Explore Wristband. The super computer itself is oval shaped with various 3D icons representing the individual Explorers. Red Andrews is represented with the color red rope, Angel with pink wings, F/X with a camera, Nitro with a stick of dynamite, Wheels with a car, and Squint with a motorcycle. Gizmo himself is represented by a brain with glasses on. The super computer has a map of the United States showing where each Explorer is by icon. Red and Angel are in Florida, Wheels and F/X are in Riverdale, Spike is in Riverdale not too far off, as is Gizmo only his is below the other two icons, Squint and Nitro are in Las Vegas.


Gizmo: The warning alert in the Explorer wrist bands are performing at optimal level and with the adjustments to the security protocol and new transference module, the unique signal each wristband constantly emits can be used to home in on each Explorer securely!

Panel three: Gizmo is wiping his brow with a handkerchief as he looks up towards the Wheels and F/X icons on the monitor as he obviously would rather be with them (more specifically Wheels).

Gizmo: Sigh, maybe next I'll invent a software to help socially awkward geniuses communicate with girls....

Panel four: The entire control room of Explorer Mountain goes bright red as Computo, the Explorer Supercomputer, and various alarms around Gizmo activate. On a monitor is a simple showing of the universe with a dot rocketing past Jupiter and heading directly towards Earth. Gizmo presses a button on his Explorer Wrist band as he rolls up his sleeve.


Computo: DANGER! Space probe 25 stationed on Jupiter's 22nd moon orbit has detected approaching threat!! Immanent Doom Probability calculating.

Computo: Calculation: Total destruction of Earth 99.9 percent

Gizmo: By Jove, I might not get the chance!

Panel one: A shot of Riverdale First National Bank as police have lined up their cars and set up barricades to keep the crowd isolated as they monitor the bank. In the crowd we can see various reporters and camera man as they report live on the scene.

Inside the bank: Arggh! How did all of these cops show up!?

Panel two: Inside of the bank, three ski masked wearing robbers holding laser guns are in the center of the bank as civilians and bank tellers are lined up, sitting on the ground. In the middle of the civilians is an old African American who is winking at the eight year old boy next to her to try and show him that everything will be fine. One mask robber is heading for the old lady to pull her up. Near the first bank robber are five bags of money with various dollar bills poking out of one bag.

Robber two: We should have known this job was a bust when that new guy O'Brien never showed! Probably ratted on us!

Robber three: Yeah, well, I say we get what we got—

Panel three: The third robber begins to grab at the old African America lady as she sneers at him.

The third robber: --And we take us a hostage and get as far as we can get! And I say age before beauty!

Panel four: The robber pulls his hand up suddenly as he has pulled off the old woman's white hair/wig as his eyes go wide in alarm.

Old lady off panel: And I say, you need to respect your elders!

Panel five: The bank robber is hit with an uppercut from the old lady that knocks him off of his feet. We can see just enough of the fist to show that it definetly doesn't belong to any old lady.

Old lady off panel:  For obvious reaons!

POW

Robber Three: URK!

Page 4

Panel one: The bank robber lands unconscious to the ground as the other bank robbers rush to him. To the right of the panel we can see the dress the lady was wearing beginning to come off, landing right next to a white haired wig as various hostages look on with shock. The boy smiles from ear to ear as he recognizes who is saving them.

Robber 1: Wow! That's a tough grannie!

Robber 2: That's not an old lady! That's one of the Explorers of the Unknown! That's—

Panel two: F/X is standing up as he adjusts his cloak and peeling away the old lady face make-up as he greets the robbers with a confident smile.

F/X: F/X!

F/X: Master of special effects, disguise, and illusions amongst my other talents!

Panel three: F/X squints an eye as his voice changes to an Irish accent.

F/X: Iffin' ya known me talents, I might have been more then a look out, me bucko.

Robber two: That—That voice! That Irish accent! That's O'Brien!

Panel four: The robbers point their laser guns at F/X as presses a crest on his cloak and begins to disappear from sight to the amazement of the hostages. Save for one hostage who tucks his head between his knees.

Robber one: Well, smart guy, we've got our weapons set right on you.

F/X: Then I better not be seen.

Panel five: The robbers twist their heads ever which way as F/X is throwing his voice all around the room, confusing them as they begin to stagger and become unnerved. One voice seems to be coming from a bank teller as she clamps her mouth shut with both hands.

Roof: Now where am I?

Just above bank teller: Nope.

To the right corner of the bank: Here's some advice: Throw your guns down or I'll throw you around more than I'm doing with my voice!

Page 5

Panel one: The robbers begin to run out of the bank as the shadow of a net is beginning to cover them as they leave and look back behind them. Each robber has a sack of money in their nonlaser gun holding hand.

Robber two: Forget this! I'd rather blast my way through the cops than deal with a guy like that!

Panel two: The net falls and wraps around the bank robbers as F/X reappears just in front of the robbers as he looks up in the sky.

F/X: Can't have that.

F/X: And there are worse things out here for you—

Panel three: A shot in the sky as the Explorer Jet is beginning to uncloak. F/X waves a hand to signal a job well done. Various officers and people in the crowd look on in awe. Inside of the jet we can see Wheels blushing as she can't help but smile.

F/X: --Like the master piloting skills of the lovely Wheels Cooper!
'
Wheels: Hi from up high.

Panel four: Wheels is looking at the monitor in front of her as she talks with F/X through her own wristband. On the dash of the jet is a picture of an eight year old Wheels in aviator gear as her parents stand proudly next to her. Next to that picture is one of Red Andrews. On a nearby monitor just to her left is an Explorer Alert with the icon of Explore Mountain flashing.

Wheels' wristband: Say, how about we give the people a bigger show? Maybe a swoop and loop the loop?

Wheels: Sounds like a kick, but we've got an Explorer Alert Epson!

Panel five: The Explorer Jet is zooming off in the distance as we can see a rope ladder extended out as F/X begins to climb on it. The officers are arresting the robbers. The police are dragging out the unconscious third robber who is still seeing stars from his thrashing. One police officer is looking at the high tech laser gun of one of the robbers. Another is pointing a brand on the laser gun that shows a steel bar door with a halo above it


Officer: Where are these low rent punks getting this high tech artillery..!?

Officer two: And what's this logo here all about?

Panel one:  The setting is Pickens Park as another crisis is in process A seven foot tall nearly five hundred pounds of pure muscle masked wrestler is holding up a three hundred pound man like he was a rag doll as various people scatter and run away from the behemoth. The wrestler—Man Mountain Monster—is wearing red and black tights with a red mask with a fang design as if it were about to clasp closed over his eyes. He has a bushy beard that goes all the way to his hairy chest. In the background we can see that the statue of General Pickens has been smashed into debris by Man Mountain Monster.

Man Mountain Monster: They say Man Mountain Monster is too dangerous for professional wrestling! They say Man Mountain Monster is too vicious, too uncontrollable! 

Panel two: Man Mountain Monster puts the man face to face with him as the man looks like he's about to cry as he is scared out of his mind as Man Mountain Monster yells right at his face, spit covering the man's face as MMM yells.

Man Mountain Monster: WHAT DO YOU SAY?!!

Panel three: The man answers as he tries not to cry as Man Mountain Monster looks over at the reader with an angry snarl

The Man: ...I don't like professional wrestling...!

Panel four: Man Mountain Monster hurls the man with as much velocity as possible as the man is screaming as he is coming at the reader.

Man Mountain Monster: YOU'RE GONNA NOT LIKE IT A LOT MORE!!

Man: AAAHHHH

Page 7

Panel one: The Man is about to hit a tree when a muscular figure leaps into action.

Muscular figure: Duh, thank goodness for all my stunt work and training—

Panel two: The red and white suited man catches the man as the man's body covers up Spike's face from the reader.

Spike: --And that I happen to like walks in the park!

Panel three: We still only see up to the chest of Spike as he begins to put the man back on his feet.

Spike: You okay?

Man: Yeah, barely. That masked guy is nuts he—

Man: Wait a minute! You're one of them Explorers! You're—

Panel four: The man points at Spike who is now in full view for the reader as Spike politely smiles back as he tries to be humble.

Man: You're Spike! Stunt man and the muscle of The Explorers of The Unknown!

Spike: Shucks, I'm just an average Joe in a suit that magnifies his strength by ten!

Page 8

Panel one: Man Mountain Monster begins to charge at Spike as Spike softly pushes the man aside with one hand as he prepares to do battle with Man Mountain Monster. Man Mountain Monster is foaming at the mouth and his legs and feet are powerful enough to dig up dirt and rock as he rampages ahead. Man Mountain Monster has both of his hands clamped over his head as he prepares to double axe handle Spike into the ground.

Man Mountain Monster: Outside interference! For that, I'll knock your head outside of this time zone!

Panel two: Spike grabs each one of Man Mountain Monster's fists as he strains and is pushed back several feet and his feet dig into the ground as he tries to keep his footing steady.

Man Mountain Monster:  GRRAAAAHHH

Panel two: Spike begins to push back at Man Mountain Monster, much to Man Mountain Monster's surprise.

Man Mountain Monster: Wha--?!You blocked the Two Fists of Eternal Pain and Torment??!

Man Mountain Monster: No one is stronger than Man Mountain Monster!! No one!!

Panel three: Spike is beginning to lift Man Mountain Monster over his head to body press him.

Spike: Funny thing about saying you're the strongest or something like that...

Panel four: Spike slams Man Mountain Monster to the ground, creating a small crater in the shape of Man Mountain Monster's body.

Spike: Someone just a bit better comes along and puts you in your place!!

THWAM

Page 9

Panel one: Spike is standing over the unconscious body of Man Mountain Monster as he lets out a sigh of relief. Spike's wrist band begins to alert. Several people in the park are gathering around the combatants. Several have their phones out and taking pictures. Two women are blushing as they gaze at Spike. The man who had to put up with MMM's treatment is making faces at the unconscious masked wrestler.

Spike: Holey Moley! Wresters sure are temperamental actors!

Panel two: Spike is talking into his wristband as he holds it up to his mouth.

Spike: Something wrong, little buddy?

Wristband: And how! Make your way back to Explorers Mountain! I'll elucidate the particulars of our dilemma!

Panel three: Spike begins to run out of Pickens Park as the people in the park cheer him on. The two women sadly wave goodbye while a six year old boy is in front of them and is pretending to be Spike as he strains to lift a small tree branch over his head.

Spike: Uh-oh! The bigger the words I don't know, the bigger the trouble!

Panel one: A shot of Las Vegas with various Casinos. Various neon lights and signs have various Archie characters like Super Duck and Cosmo and whatever character you'd like. The focus of the panel is on The Red Circle Casino with a neon red flashing circle. On a nearby sign a heading reading: SQUINT, MASTER ESCAPE ARTIST AND NITRO, DEMOLITION EXPERT!! In small writing under their names it reads: Later two guys with a tiger. We can see that people are beginning to pile into the casino in droves, nearly causing a riot as various men and women push and elbow one another.

Caption: Las Vegas after running up a tremendous tab and exceeding gambling debts...


Voice inside of casino: Ladies and Gentleman, not only do we have two of the world famous Explorers of the Unknown...

Panel two: A shot of inside of the casino stage area as the seats are filled to the point some people are sitting on the tables, to the anguish and frustration of some VIPs. On the stage is the casino owner wearing blue and black sparkling suit and paints attire. To his right is Nitro and Squint, who is chained up from his shoulders to his ankles. Behind the two is a large safe  roughly as tall as squint with the inside showing various explosives implanted inside along with various explosives on the outside as well. Squint is indifferent to the danger as he yawns. Nitro is casually tossing the remote to the explosives in his right hand and back carelessly. The casino owner has a microphone in his hands as he motions and poses to ham it up for the crowd.

Casino owner: ...But you are about to witness a stunt where the certainty of coming out alive is next to impossible!!!

Squint: Yaawn!

Nitro: Talk, talk, talk, talk! Let's get to the boom boom boom!

Panel three: Squint begins to hop into the safe with a smile on his face as Nitro playfully twiddles his fingers to mock goodbye. The casino owner is motioning towards the two as he explains the act.

Casino owner: Not only is the outside of the safe covered with explosives, but the inside as well~!!

Casino owner: Squint only has a minute to escape from the Vault of Doom before Nitro detonates his explosives! Imploding this large safe into something you could put into your pockets!

Page 11

Panel one: The Casino owner is still hyping everything as Nitro eagerly anticipates when he can unleash his explosives. Nitro is tapping the red button on the remote, but not enough to push it down to show how anxious he is to show off his artillery skills

Casino Owner: Can he do it?!! Will he survive!!?

Panel two: The Casino Owner whispers over Nitro's shoulders as he covers the mic with his hands. Nitro grins as he replies.

Casino Owner whispering: This isn't really that dangerous, is it?

Nitro: We're not putting a cherry bomb in a mailbox here!

Panel three: Nitro looks at his wristband as it begins to give off the Explorers Alert.

Nitro: Huh. Guess we're going to have to wrap this up a early like.

Panel four: Nitro presses the button as the vault begins to implode as all the explosives go off from outside and inside

VRRROOOPPPHHH

Casino Owner: What are you doing!?  He wasn't even in there for five seconds!!

Page 12

Panel one: The smoke begins to clear as the Casino Owner looks down in horror. Nitro looks down with a toothy grin, proud of his work.

Nitro: Heh. Look at that! Am I good or what!

Casino: Good?!! You're a murder!!

Panel two: The casino owner motions down at the safe as it has now been imploded to a small smoldering metal cube no bigger than a thimble.

Nitro: Personally, I love it when things blast apart, but there is an art to imploding something.

Nitro: And you can always just blow that up later if ya feel like it!

Panel three: The Casino Owner is beginning to panic as is everyone else in the room as they are running around and have no idea what to do. Nitro is reaching down to pick up the metal cube.

Casino Owner: Someone died on stage! My license!! Am I an accomplish!!? What do I do?!

Nitro: Tell the next act to come out. Me and Squint just covered our debts in spade!

Panel four: Nitro is juggling the scorching hot metal cube as he runs out of the room. Inside of the stage area we can see the casino owner has fallen to his knees in sadness while two magicians with white lions look on in confusion. The tiger is sniffing the air and licking his lips like he smells something delicious.

Nitro: Hot potato! Hot Potato!

Page 13

Nitro is casually tossing the hot metal cube with his right hand as he is near a bar where a familiar long nose person is sitting with a cup of soda right next to him along with three plates contain various food stains and chicken bones. In the background we can see several old ladies playing slots. One old lady looks disappointed as her winnings are only a few coins.

Nitro: Figured I'd find you stuffing your face.

Panel two: Nitro flicks the metal cube into the soda cup as causes the soda to sizzle.  The person/Squint begins top pick up the cup as he still plans on drinking from it.

Nitro: There ya, go! A souvenir for ya, Squint!

plink

Panel three: Squint is sipping from the soda cup as several people look on in astonishment as they are seeing what happened on the stage in a flat screen TV hanging up over the bar. Next to the stool is the chains Squint was tied up with.

Squint: Thanks. But I would have rather have kept my ice cold soda pop, Nitro.

Panel four: Nitro points at his wrist band as the alert is stilling flashing as Squint casually puts his glass cup back down with only the metal cube remaining inside as he begins to stand up and lick his lips as he imagines enjoying nice food later on. The old lady who just won the few coins is walking away as just behind her, another old woman's slot machine is gushing with coins.

Nitro: I'd rather we get going! I got a feeling that we're going to be up against something big. And I can't wait to turn that something big into small bits of nothing!


Squint: Hope you're right, my combustible compadre. Because the bigger the threat, the bigger the victory party we'll have after the day is saved.

Page 14

Panel one: A shot from inside of a scope as the sight is set on a big foot like creature, a skunk ape, in a tree. The skunk ape is around three foot tall with black and white fur. It looks scared out of his mind as it has no place else to hide.

Caption: Florida. The Big Cypress Swamp.

Caption Skunk Ape. Small smelly Big Foot.

Hunter: Boys, looks like we get the smelly critter treed good.


Panel two: A shot of the hunter ( about 6'6 and 380 pounds) as he is wearing overalls and has his rifle pointed at the skunk ape. Next to him are two of his redneck friends. One (Chet) is tall and gangly and is wearing a worn out ballcap and a Goose Gallery shirt where a goose is wearing camouflage gear. The other (Jed) is slightly more in shape than Chet and has stringy blond hair. He is decked out in camouflage from his clothes to his painted face. Chet is pinching his nose shut from the smell the skunk ape is eluding. We are in the swampland of Florida in a small patch of trees and bushes with only a small clearing ahead and behind the hunters. The trees start out with large trunks and go smaller and smaller until it forms a dome over the area with small bits of light shining through.

Jed: Reckon if'n this smelly monkey is real, then maybe that guy in the funny costume might actually have the money he promised us!

Chet: To think, Johnny, we take it back alive to The Collector, we'll get double the pay!

Panel three: Johnny leans into his rifle as he prepares to pull the trigger as the skunk ape vainly tries to hide in the branches of the tree.

Johnny: Hmph. Dead's easier to haul back—might even smell better that way, too, for all we know.

Panel four: A rope suddenly wraps around the gun and is yanked from Johnny's grasp and is pulled back away from him.

Off-Panel: So, this Collector doesn't do his own collecting. Too bad. After hearing how he targets rare species, I was hoping to have a few choice words with him.


Panel 15

Panel one: The group of hunters turn around as they are shocked to see who interrupted their hunt.

Johnny: No! It can't be! These parts isn't supposed to have your type setting your feet in it!

Panel two: A shot of Red Andrews and Angel Lodge from over the shoulders and heads of the hunters. Angel is in a fighting stance as she prepares for a fight. Red has the rifle in his hands as he tucks his rope back into his belt as he grins at the hunters confidently.

Red: Sorry. But when Red Andrews, Leader of the Explorers of the Unknown, receives word that a rare species is being threatened, I will walk through Hades barefoot to stop it from happening!

Angel: And Angel Lodge, martial artist and heiress, is very cross at certain riff-raff for making her miss a luncheon the state senator has prepared for her father!

Angel: ...plus a nice beach with my boyfriend would beat this swamp that is just killing my hair strands...

Panel three: Angel turns to Red as she points at her face. Red tries to smile as big as he can as he nods his head.

Angel: Red Andrews, I hope you appreciate all that I put up with! I can feel my pores showing!

Red: I do, and they're not. You're perfect.

Red: I promise that we'll have a nice romantic evening. Just the two of us. No interruptions.

Panel four: Johnny is grunting as he apparently doesn't like being forgotten by the Explorers. Chet and Jed are talking with one another as they come to an agreement.

Chet: Hear that, Jed? That's why I don't want a girlfriend! Too high main-e-nence!

Jed: Reckon that's right.

Johnny: Hmmmph.
                                                       
Page 16

Panel one: Johnny is pointing a finger at Red Andrews as Jed and Chet slink behind him. Red and Angel turn back to the hunters and are serious again.

Johnny: You should stick with getting cats out of  trees for little kids, hero. Me bagging that misfit will have me set for life!

Panel two: Red Andrews breaks the rifle across his knee as Angel looks on impressed.

Red:  No. It'll make you an idiot who helped with the extension of a species.

CRRAAK

Angel thinking: Sigh. He's cute when he's riled up.

Panel three: Johnny begins to charge the two Explorers as Chet and Jed begin to race towards the tree to get the skunk ape.

Johnny: Heck with this! I'll hold off these two! You get that thing out of that tree however you can!

Jed: Reckon that's a plan.

Page 17

Panel one: Red motions for Angel to go on ahead as she runs straight at the charging Johnny.

Red: Angel, could you please take care of those two? I'll handle him.

Angel: Fine. But it would be nice to go up against a foe with some decorum and class.

Panel two: All seen in one panel as Angel runs, leaps over Johnny, does several flips in the air and lands on her feet in a crouching position in front of Chet and Jed as they stop dead in their tracks.

Angel: Tell me you insufferable cretins...ever been touched by an angel? I won't be able to send you to heaven--

Panel three: Angel Lodge lands a leaping uppercut that knocks out Jed as Chet tries to strike Angel in response.

KRAK

Angel: --But I can knock you into next week!!

Chet: Oh yeah, gal!?

Panel four: Angel Lodge grabs onto Chet's arm and swings around his back as she prepares to put him in a head lock.

Panel five: Angel Lodge hits Chet with a barrage of punches right at his nose in one swift motion.

Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow

Panel six: Angel Lodge let's the dazed and defeated Chet fall face first onto the soft ground as she wipes her hands clean of the entire fight with a sanitation cloth as she sighs to herself. The skunk ape is climbing down from the tree as it has hearts over its head as it turns its head to look at Angel

Chet: ...Two Tuesdays back ta back?...hope his week is a new Swamp Men show....

WUD

Angel: I swear, my entire service staff doesn't deal with as much trash as I do!

Page 18

Panel one: Johnny begins to throw a punch at Red as Red feints to his left and begins to bend over to reach for Johnny's right leg.

Johnny: Fine! I'll take care of you, then the girl, and then the monkey!

Red: I have a better idea.

Red: First I dodge.

Panel two: Red picks up Johnny as Johnny has his right leg bent in the air  and lifts the much larger man off the ground.

Red: Then I take advantage when you're unbalanced....

Panel three: Red grabs hold of Johnny's right arm as he swings him towards the fallen hunters and Angel Lodge as she is carrying the skunk ape in her arms as she uses a free hand to hold her nose.

Red: Now I use leverage—

Johnny: WHOA!

Panel four: Red swings Johnny onto his hunter friends as he lands with a loud thud near the still unconscious Chet and Jed. Angel Lodge begins to approach Red as she seems pleased with him as she continues to hold her nose.

Red: --And let momentum and gravity take over from here!

Angel: Nice moves, Mr. Soldier of Fortune.

Page 19

Panel one: Red looks over at Angel as Angel now is holding the skunk ape by the hand and leading it to Red. The skunk ape gleefully walks along side her.

Red: Should I be jealous?

Panel two: Angel leans in close to Red as she smiles at him.

Angel: No. You're less hairy and smell much better.

Panel three: A close-up as Red and Angel are as close to possible to kissing.

Red: Lucky me.

Panel four: Red pulls back as his wrist band and Angel's wrist band goes off. Red's disposition goes back to being serious as Angel looks on frustrated. The skunk ape is puckering his lips and pointing at himself.

Red: An Explorer alert! We're needed back at Explorer Mountain ASAP!

Angel: Hmmph!

Panel five: Red runs ahead as Angel leads the skunk ape along as she talks with it much to its confusion. In the background we can see a cloaked figure in a full body high tech costume with a C on his face plate as he looks at the Explorers with great interest.

Red: No time to take the skunk ape to Preserve Island! We'll have to take him with us!

Angel: So...would you be open to a bath? Maybe some deodorant? A shave?

The Collector: Extraordinary is this Red Andrews and his Explorers of the Unknown. My benefactor was right. They will provide me a good bit of sport.


Page 20

Panel one: Red and Angel are entering the Explorer meeting room as Red rushes in and Angel is carrying the skunk ape in her arms. Nitro is leaning next to the door as he notices the skunk ape. Squint is trying to cover his nose as the stench of the skunk ape is coming right at him. Sitting down at the Explorer red and yellow table is F/X who is looking over various magazines for face disguise ideas and taking notes and making diagrams. Wheels gets out of her seat next to F/X and runs up to Red as she is overjoyed to see him. Hanging in front of the room is a monitor. The only Explorer not present is Gizmo.

Nitro: What, we getting a mascot now?

Squint: YLRRK! It suddenly smells like my old high school gym locker!

Red: Okay, we're all here so where is Gizmo and—

Wheels: Red! I heard about Florida!

Panel two: Wheels hugs Red as Red looks confused at what to do. Angel looks on with  twisted lips and a look of disapproval as the skunk ape looks on.

Red: Um, it was nothing, Wheels....

Wheels: You're just being humble! I wish I had been there with you!

Panel three: Angel hands the skunk ape over to Wheels as she begins to lead Red away from Wheels as he shrugs his shoulders to the reader. Wheels sticks her tongue out playfully at Angel.

Angel: I'm sure you do. Here. I got you your own boyfriend.

Wheels: Try finding me a new best friend next time.

Gizmo off-panel: Ahem.   


Page 21

Panel one: Gizmo is in front of the monitor as it lowers to his side as it shows a display of a giant asteroid blazing towards earth. Gizmo adjusts his glasses as the rest of the Explorers begin to sit down. Squint is still holding his nose as he looks a the monitor, F/X is stacking up his magazines and research to the side, Nitro is rolling a piece of dynamite on the table in front of him as he's already bored. Red sits in between Angel and Wheels. Angel leans her head on to Red's shoulders as Wheels and the skunk ape look on jealously. Spike seems entertained by the work Gizmo has presented.

Red: Gizmo, what's the emergency?

Spike: Say that's a meteor, isn't it, little buddy?

Gizmo: Not quite. Let me explain, Spike...

Panel two: Gizmo goes off topic as he acts like a teacher lecturing a high school classroom as he happily begins to go over the difference between a meteor and an asteroid.

Gizmo: The main difference between an asteroid and a meteor is location.

Gizmo: When a small planetoid is in space—as you can see here—it is an asteroid but when it enters the atmosphere it becomes a meteor and upon impact upon the ground a meteorite.

Panel three: Gizmo feels embarrassed as the majority of the Explorers look at him with different expressions. Angel glares at Gizmo for wasting her time. Red has his elbows on the table and his chin resting in his open palms as he waits for Gizmo to get back on point. Wheels rolls her eyes and smiles as she is at least appreciative of Gizmo's effort if not the timing; the skunk ape has fallen asleep in her arms. F/X has gone back to reading one of his magazines. Nitro is continuing to roll the stick of dynamite on the table only glaring up at Gizmo. Squint is trying to stay awake as he taps his upper jaw with his hand. Spike actually seems interested as he looks on wide-eyed like a kid who just received a gold star on a paper.

Spike: Learning is fun.

Red: Good to know. But the emergency, Giz...

Gizmo: Er, um, heh, yes—

Page 22

Panel one: Gizmo is standing in front of the monitor as it now shows the asteroid breaking up by bits in the earth atmosphere as it shadows over Riverdale.

Gizmo: Recently, the Explorer satellite link-ups picked up a 300 foot wide asteroid on a direct collision course for Earth with Riverdale being the center of impact!

Panel two: All Explorers begin to stand up as the seriousness of the asteroid causes them to snap to action. Wheels sets the skunk ape on the meeting table as it stretches its arms as it wakes back up. Nitro lets the stick of dynamite nearly fall to the ground before he reaches down to grab it.  Gizmo is moving towards the rest of the Explorers as he uses his hands to motion with to demonstrate what he is saying to them.

Gizmo: With the abnormal speed and the angle of entry adding to the temperature and the kinetic energy, upon impact the end result will be-- 

Panel three: A shot of the monitor lighting up in bright red, yellow, and orange explosion to show that the earth would be destroyed as The Explorers look on in horror. Even the skunk ape is shielding his eyes with its hands. Gizmo looks on sadly as he continues.

Gizmo: The total destruction of Earth.

Gizmo: Explorers, by my calculations, we are merely three hours away from Doomsday.

Squint: Huh. Guess it doesn't matter I forgot to set the DVR for Seat of Kings now....


TO BE CONTINUED.

Panel one: A close-up on Paul Patton, Jr. as he has a fake smile on his face as he has a notepad and pencil ready as looks ahead. Around his neck is an old fashion camera.

Caption: I'm Paul Patton, Jr: Husband, father, photojournalist and local superhero The Fox.

Paul Patton, Jr.: Mr. Griffin, for the Impact City Gazette, I'd like to thank you for your time. We know you relocated to Impact City after Griffin Enterprises acquisitioned Bright Industries and you've hardly had time to finalize...

Caption: Oh, wait. I forgot one.

Panel two: Paul Patton Jr. begins to write shorthand on his notepad as he keeps his eyes looking ahead at the still unseen Mr. Griffin. His short hand is very unreadable with lines and slashes along the pages and along the side of it are games of Tic-Tac-Toe where he manages to lose every time.

Mr. Griffin off panel: Not a problem at all. My staff has done an excellent job locating, obtaining, restructuring and purchasing facilities to suit our needs. What I find hard is introductions.

Mr. Griffin off-panel: Doing this interview is the best way to introduce myself to my new home.

Caption: Freak Magnet.

Panel three: Paul looks up as Mr. Griffin says something that snaps him out of his deep thought.

Mr. Griffin: I hope my appearance isn't too offsetting, Mr. Patton.

Paul Patton Jr.: Er—no. And call me Paul...


Panel four: Paul Patton Jr. is faking a grin as he tries to not to show his concern for what he is seeing off panel

Mr. Griffin off-panel: As you wish, Paul. Would you like a drink, something to eat perhaps? My personal chef makes a religieuss to die for.

Paul Patton, Jr.: That's one lethal sweet tooth.

Caption: Ever since I put on my full body spandex pajamas and acted like it was Halloween at comiccon, I'm attracted every sort of costumed creep, mutilating mutant, and interdimensional ignoramous.



Page 2


Panel one: A shot inside a skyscraper office as we can see Paul sitting at a desk. Behind the desk sitting is a man around 6'2 wearing a black business suit and tie with his hands and head covered in bandages and wearing dark sunglasses. He has a computer on his desk, various files, and a small bowl of mints. He is handing a mint to Paul as Paul reluctantly reaches to take it as he has a uneasy smile on his face.

Caption: So trust me when I say—this is a bad guy.

Mr. Griffin: Hah. Yes. I suppose it would be at that. How about a mint then?

Paul: Sure.

Caption: Make that super villain.

Panel two: Paul begins to unwrap the mint as Mr. Griffin talks.

Mr. Griffin: I suppose I should give you the basic details of my life.

Caption: 5:1 this mint is poisoned.

Paul: You're the man of the hour.

Panel three: Mr. Griffin' cups his hands as he places them on the front of his desk as he calmly begins to go over his life.

Mr. Griffin: My name is Aster Wells Griffin. I come from an affluent family. My family's wealth began with pharmaceuticals and grew to include computer engineering, communications, and manufacturing.

Caption: 2:3 he only has facebook friends.

Panel two: Mr. Griffin holds out his hands to show off his bandages.

Mr. Griffin: As is apparent, I have a skin condition. Sadly a genetic trait that runs in my family. A sever case of photodermatitus. My skin and eyes have a rather very violent reaction to UV rays.

Caption: 3:2 says he's a vampire.

Panel three: Mr. Griffin stands up and looks out the windows to his skyscraper.

Paul: Mr. Griffin—

Mr. Griffin: Aster.

Paul: Aster. You're worth more than most countries combined and if we liquefied your assets, it'd overflow out of the building and raise the ocean level by ten feet--

Paul: What was it specifically that drew you to Impact City?

Panel five: View from outside of the window as Mr. Griffin looks straight ahead as the reflection of the city is upon the window.

Mr. Griffin: It wouldn't seem like the best place to relocate, no?

Mr. Griffin: The crime rate is twice as high as the next two metropolises'. Not a day seems to guy by where a villain jeopardizes innocent lives. The police are underfunded, politicians who prefer a hand out over falling on the sword...

Mr. Griffin: ...But there is also a city that knows how to rebuild stronger than ever. Communities that hold firm to basic moral decency. An inner strength to treat the extraordinary mundanely.

Panel six: Mr. Griffin turns back to Paul as Paul smiles at him. On the notepad we can see a picture of Mr. Griffin crushing the world between his hands.

Mr. Griffin: Ah. Listen to me rambling. Let's just say I see a bright future ahead for Impact City.

Paul: Oh keep rambling. Pure magic is coming out of your mouth.

Caption: Even odds says we'll be punching each other within a week.

Page 3

Panel one: Paul begins to write on his note pad as he thinks.

Caption: Now I comes the standard questions and that I already answered the night before using wikipedia. So boring time.

Caption: Not that I mind. Gives me time to think.

Panel two: Paul stares at his notepad as he thinks. Behind him is an image of what happened in the last story arc with Ghost Fox (his son Shinji) being held captive by Mr. Smile as She-Fox is lying on the ground with the left side of her body having just been blasted while The Fox looks on helplessly.

Caption: Like how horrible of a husband and father I am.

Caption: Like how, when I tried to leave The Fox behind and lead a normal life, it resulted in my untrained son picking up the mantle, being captured, and my wife being injured—

Panel three: Same shot only with She-Fox snapping Mr. Smile's neck while The Fox and Ghost Fox look on in horror.

Caption: --And my wife having to kill Mr. Smile, the big bad of Impact City, to protect us all.

Panel four: Paul looks up as he nods his head and smiles. In the background is an image of the family posing. Mae has grown her hair out on the left side to cover up her scarred face ala Tailia Al Ghul from Batman. Both Mae and Shinji look content while Paul has this weird nervous smile and rolls his eyes towards the other two.

Caption: And now Shinji is a hero in training so he can learn to run into radioactive monsters than can punch through concrete the right way and Mae...she's handling it better than I am.

Caption: So the more things change the more they stay the same.

Panel five: Paul is standing up and shaking Mr. Griffin's hand as the interview is over. In the background is The Shield talking with The Fox and She-Fox (all in costume) The Shield shows a video of Fly Girl as she attacks Ragnarok from Dark Tomorrow

Caption: And now my daughter—she's had it rough. First, she has me as a father and secondly... her mother was killed with a lot of my old super buddies and after a recent mission...

Caption: She's had nothing but bad days for way too long.

Panel six: A close-up on Paul's face as he has a wide dopey smile as he continues to act super friendly to Mr. Griffin. In the background is an image of Fly Girl and Kelly Brand.

Caption: She's going to be staying with us and that makes me happy—really, but--

Paul Patton: How about a few pictures? If you don't mind with your condition, I'd understand completely if--

Caption: God, please don't let me make her life worse than it is. Just this one miracle, please?

Page 4

Panel one: Over the shoulder of an alarmed Paul Patton as he looks past Mr. Griffin to see a dark blue Pirate ship hovering in the air and shooting off an anchor that is rocketing towards them. Mr. Griffin doesn't notice as he stands up and complies

Caption: Okay, let's dodge the giant anchor from the pirate ship in the air, take this pic, and bond with my daughter!

Mr. Griffin: I don't mind at all. I'm sure no one will notice the small stain on my suit.

Caption: ...Wait. What was that first thing?

Panel two: Paul leaps over the desk and pushes Mr. Griffin to the ground as the anchor is just a few feet away.

Paul Patton: Get down!

Panel three: The giant anchor crashes through the glass windows of the office and out the office door as it kicks up a dust cloud that begins to spread though the room. Paul reaches Mr. Griffin just in time and pushes him to the ground.

KKRAAKKK

Caption: Freak magnet.

Caption: Metal anchor from a pirate ship hovering over the city.

THOOOMM

Caption: 'Natch.

Page 5

Panel one: A close up on Paul as he looks down to check on Mr. Griffin as he tries to push away the dust cloud that is blocking his view.

Paul: Mr. Griffin, are you okay? Is anything broken?—besides your office and faith in this city I mean.

Caption: Not what I was expecting today. The title to my autobiography.

Panel two: a close-up on Paul's surprised eyes.

Panel three: Over the back of Paul Patton as we can see that Mr. Griffin is gone and all that remains is his bandages, his sunglasses, and the rest of his clothing.

Caption: And chapter 14 will be titled: Somewhere in Impact City, a multibillionaire is streaking.

Panel four: Paul stands up and pulls his shirt open to reveal his Fox costume as he prepares to fight crime.

Paul: Sigh.

Caption: ...And I wanted to wrap up the day so I can be home when Kelly arrives and just give her the biggest hug ever.

Panel five: The Fox is in full costume as he is beginning to climb the anchor chain as he looks up at the pirate ship.

Caption: Costumed villains and not being there for the people I love. The story of my life.

Love the Fox pic. That sums up the character perfectly.

Wow all caps.

Still, as doing what you love and being happy is the best revenge.

Page 12

Panel one: Stewart is leaning in his doorway with a smug look on his face.

Stewart: Hey, Trev. How's the date going?

Panel two: Zoom out to see Trevor is all covered up in the middle of his bed in a trembling ball as he is hiding after being frightened by the ghost. Stewart still has the smug expression.

Trevor: This is not that, pleb! This is ghost camouflage!

Panel three: Trevor peeks out from his cover as he looks over at Stewart as Stewart is acting as if nothing out of the ordinary is happening as he lies down and begins to read a Z People comic.

Trevor: ...Say, weren't you with Jess and Kelly?

Stewart: Was, and now I'm not.

Panel four: Trevor bursts out of the bed in full clothing and wearing rocket brand shoes as Stewart continues to just read his comic unapologetically.

Trevor: You left those helpless girls alone in that haunted dorm?! What if they need help?!

Stewart: What have you seen from me that leads you to believe I can or want to help with anything?

Panel five: Trevor's hand grabs Stewart by the front of Stewart's shirt collar and drags him off the bed by his stomach.

Stewart: C'mon! Why does everyone keep yanking me around?!?

Panel six: Trevor is dragging Stewart out of the room as Stewart vainly thrashes and protests.

Trevor: I'm gonna save the girl I love and the catoptrophobiac whose make up I do!

Stewart: Why do I have to come?!!

Trevor: Because I'm going to throw you at the ghost, and while it's tearing you apart like a granola bar wrapper, I'll save the two people who actually matter!

Page 13

Panel one: Lyric and Summer are dusting the wall with its new wallpaper as Paisley is cleaning under Vera's bed and pulling out dirty underwear you could hang on a pole as a flag. Paisley sticks her tongue out in disgust.

Lyric: Paisley, me and Summer feel bad.

Paisley: Understandable.

Panel two: Lyric and Summer are talking with Paisley as Paisley kicks the dirty underwear back under the bed with the heel of her shoe. In the background Vera is checking the dust on a wall as an exhausted sorority sister with a duster looks on.

Summer: Kelly's our president and our friend, shouldn't we be helping her?

Paisley: No, because we could die. And dying is the worse thing that can—

Panel three: Paisley turns her head as Vera show her non dust cover finger at the sorority sister as she tries to reason with Vera. Nearby two other sorority sisters, look on as they clean the nearby window.

Vera: Look at this! A speck of dust! You've got to pull my weight if you want to stay!

Vera: And don't look at me, look at those spots you missed! Make like magician with ODC and make them disappear, presto!

Panel four: Paisley leads the way as all the girls drop their brooms, wash clothes, spray bottles, and dusters as they follow her lead. Lyric and Summer hold hands and celebrate as they are excited at going back.

Paisley: On second fault, better a quick death than a slow torture.

Panel five: Vera chases after them.

Vera: You can't leave! I've got corn fields that need proper tending!! Spinach in my teeth needing flossing! I need someone to play Bucketmon Went while I nap!


Page 14

Panel one: Possessed Jess is pulling the suspended helplessly in air Kelly towards her as Kelly tries to break free. Possessed Jeff has her fangs out in a sardonic grin.

Possessed Jess: I think I'll bite your throat out.

Kelly: "You think"? So no final decision, right??

Panel two: Possessed Jess notices a small piece of paper hanging out of Kelly's left pocket.

Possessed Jess: What's this? Knowing your selflish kind, a victory speech for your "award." Pathetic.

Kelly: But it's not. It's—

Panel three: Possessed Jess grabs the paper out of Kelly's pocket.

Possessed Jess: Don't lie to me! I heard you earlier! All you care about is winning! Just like Emma! Just like everyone!

Panel four: Possessed Jess begins to read the letter as she rolls her eyes as it goes how she thought it would.

Possessed Jess: "Hi, girls. It's your president, Kels-Bels. I want to bring a matter to order about the Samaritanina award. I have a nomination I'd like for us all to support."

Panel five: Possessed Jess's eyes widen and her mouth gaps open as she continues..

Possessed Jess: "...Fran Wright."

Page 15

Panel one: Possessed Jess continues to read the note as Kelly is gingerly lowered to the ground.

Possessed Jess: "I did some research and she helped out the community, youth centers, and painted phone booths (whatever those are)."

Possessed Jess: "She was humble and kind and did it never expecting anything in return. Not only should we vote her as the winner...but we should rename the award the Fran Wright Award..."

Possessed Jess: "...She deserves the praise and it's a much better name."

Panel two: Possessed Jess looks at Kelly.

Possessed Jess: You...you were going to do this for me...?

Kelly: Yeah, did some thinking after Jess reamed me out earlier...and did some research.

Kelly: I read about all you did and thought it wasn't right you're remembered as a scary ghost instead of a good person.

Panel three: Kelly smiles sincerely at Possessed Jess.

Kelly: And I decided that, yeah, I'd like to be remembered—but how I'm remembered matters the most.

Panel four: Possessed Jess closes her eyes and smiles.

Possessed Jess: I...I've been so angry...weighed down--but it's gone. Finally. I can move on.

Possessed Jess: Thank you, Kelly.

Panel five: Kelly looks on as the ghostly image of Fran Wright waves goodbye to her as she ascends from Jess's body and disappears into a white light just above her.

Kelly: Bye!

Kelly: And if you see my grandmother, tell her I'm really sorry for stopping giving her kisses when her face turned ultra wrinkly!

Page 16

Panel one: Kelly is looking at Jess with a relieved smile as a bewildered Jess is droggy and getting her bearings back together.

Jess: Whu...? What happened? I remember a blue light and lots of red flashes and—

Panel two: Jess' eyes widen and her lips sink into her mouth as Kelly looks on confused.
Kelly: ??

Panel three: Jess begins to cry out in pain as she bends over and holds her back and her jaw as she is now feeling all the pain Kelly had afflicted on her when she was possessed.

Jess: Owwwwww!!

Jess: My ribs are killing me and I can taste my shattered vertebrae in the back of my throat—and my jaw!! Is it cracked??—awwwh--!!

Panel four: Kelly feigns innocence and looks away she tries to change the subject as she turns her head.

Jess: There is something very, very important you want to discuss with me.

Kelly: Well, sure, um...hey, do you hear a small girl screaming?


Panel five:  Stewart is flying in the air over the two as the both girls just ignore him as Kelly sinks in her face as she doesn't know how to answer an angry Jess.

Jess: It's just Stewart.

Jess:  Now why do I feel like a ten car pile up bodyslammed me?

Page 17

Panel one: Trevor runs up to Jess as the rest of the RHO sorority girls and Vera follow after him. Vera's face is distorted rage after she hears Trevor's comment. On the ground, Stewart looks like a crumbled up rag doll as he has stars circling his head.

Trevor: Yeah! How you like that, ghost? Next I toss the fat girl at you! Just come within two inches of me!

Vera: WHAT?!

Panel two: Kelly calms Trevor down as she looks back at the girls to ease their tension.

Kelly: Trevor! Girls! Wow, you won't believe this—but it was really just a gas pipe leak! We were all just hallucinating eerie lights and floating.

Panel three: Kelly looks back at Jess who is on her knees as she is holding her back as she grimaces in pain while giving Kelly a death glare. Stewart is beginning to pull his battered and tossed body off the ground.

Kelly: And then gas pipe fell on Jess while we were fixing it. That's what happened, right. Winkedy wink wink.

Jess: Yes. That's what happened.

Panel four: Lyric and Summer are happy and cheerful as Paisley is skeptical.

Lyric: It makes sense!

Summer: It does.

Paisley: No it doesn't. We don't have gas in our home and—

Panel five: Paisley shrugs her shoulders and gives in as Summer and Lyric give her a hug.

Paisley: Forget it. As long as I'm not murdered in my sleep, I'm content.

Lyric and Summer: YAY! CONTENTMENT!

Page 18

Panel one: Jess is still holding her head and back as she is hunched over as Trevor reaches to help her.

Trevor: Hot Thang, you're in no condition to walk. I'll carry you back to your dorm.

Jess: Thank you, Trevor. I really, really appreciate it.

Panel two: Trevor is carrying Jess over her shoulder as Jess winces in pain. Jess has several red pain stars and orange lightning bolts to show how much pain she's in. Trevor has a smile ear to ear as he thinks he is being super romantic. In the RHO house, various sorority sisters are waving goodbye to Jess as they don't see she's in pure agony.

Jess: And I thought being a vampire would be why I'd need a coffin.

Panel three: Kelly is talking to the RHO members as they are all excited. Lyric and Summer are the happiest while Paisley just sighs and gives in to the fabrication with a smile. Vera is dragging Stewart out of RHO house as she waves off the idea of helping clean up. Stewart is leaving with her as he quips at her.

Kelly: Okay, gal pals,  let's make our home pre-gas pipe! It won't take long if everyone helps!

Vera: Forget that! This ain't my mess! 'Sides I need my beauty sleep.

Stewart: No arguments here.

Panel four: Kelly is clapping as she is signally for everyone to get to work.  In the background is the glass display with all the winners of the Good Samaritanina award.

Kelly: Alright! Let's get to it!

Kelly: And while we're at it, there's something I wanted to talk to you all about--

Page 19

Panel one: A shot of Kelly and Jess staring ahead. Kelly has a smile ear to ear as Jess has a bandage wrapped around her head, but is pleased with Kelly.

Kelly: So...you're not mad at me, are you?

Jess: Nah. Vampires heal fast and concussion dreams are amazing. And everything did work out in the end.

Panel two: Kelly and Jess are walking out of RHO house. The glass display now has a banner reading The FRAN WRIGHT AWARD: A GOOD DEED HERE FOR HER. With the glass case now having a new photo next to Emma Dotson's, an old picture of Fran Wright who has a small smile on her face.

Kelly: Say, Jess, me and the girls are organizing a food drive. I was wondering if maybe—

Jess: I've got a helping hand and a few cans of corn.

Panel three: A close up on Fran Wright's picture next to Emma Dotson's.

Kelly off-panel: Great! And we've got other projects lined up, too! Washing stray dogs, Listening to old people, tying shoes for the fat fingered...



Panel four: Same shot only with the picture of Fran Wright has her eyes rolling towards the photo and frame of Emma Dotson.

Panel five: The picture of Emma Dotson falls flat as the picture of Fran Wright has an even bigger smile on her face.

Jess: Fine. The talking mystery solving dog had it wrong. Score one for you.

Page 17

Panel one: Stewart looks around as he doesn't see an immediate threat as he he's just hovering a few inches from the ceiling.

Panel two: Over the shoulder of Jess as she is looking into the living room from the door frame as Kelly breathes a sigh of relief. Jess has her eyes closed as she walks towards Kelly. As Kelly puts the loveseat back in place with one hand.

Kelly: That you, Jess? Seen the ghost the last few minutes?

Kelly: Me neither.

Kelly:  I'm thinking maybe the ghost got bored and left, right? Or just gave up and found a new place to live.


Panel three: Over the shoulder of Kelly as Jess opens her eyes to reveal them glowing bright blue. Kelly has a look of fright on her face as she shifts her eyes to her left shoulder as she sees Jess has been possessed by the ghost. Possessed Jess is baring her fangs and her face tightens to make her look slightly demonic.

All Rude Dudes should be heavily tanned so they are a bright orange.


Caption: Then it's the Jersey Rude Dudez to the rescue!!


Jersey Rude Dudez: Boom Shakalaka!!


Panel three: The tattooed Rude Dude is knocking the apple encyclopedia out of the salesman hand while trying to act tough. The Rude Dude female is spraying the girlfriend in the eyes with the hair conditioner and it burns the girlfriend's face, The Muscular Rude Dude is just tossing the annoying relative off-panel. The timid guy is doing the cabbage patch as he rejoices that his problems are over.

Tattooed Rude Dude: How you doin'?

Female Rude Dude: Take a step, tease!

Muscular Rude Dude: Flex the muscles. toss the flab, batta-bing!

Caption: Don't try this at home. You can't teach this.

Panel four: The Rude Dudez are celebrating with the timid guy as they are up in his grill. The Rude Dudette's hair fumes are making the timid guy sick, while the muscular guy has the timid guy's head on his flexing muscles as he shows off his tan. The smaller Rude Dude is climbing up on the timid guy's shoulder, making him unsteady.


Rude Dudez: Bubbies, you got a problem---? We're Brick City hardcore with a side of disco fries! Hollah hollah, ring a ding ding, and what you got goin' ain't no thin'!

Caption: Certified G's guaranteed.

I actually think AWM is pretty well animated. Especially for that 1999. And I liked it. I think if you're an Archie or Veronica fan, you're probably happy because they get the most focus out of everyone.

And when I read the comics, I always read them using these voices.

Part II

Page one

Panel one: Jess is lying on her bed reading a book titled THERE IS NO LAME POWER as Vera is in front of her strutting her stuff as she showcases her body. Jess isn't even paying her one bit of attention. Vera is moving about in four continuous separate motions. The first she is acting like a headbanger and nodding her head up and down. The second she is acting like a ballerina doing a twirl on her tippy toes. The third she's transitioned to the cabbage patch. Fourth she is doing the dinosaur.

Caption: Audio captioning for the visually impaired.

Vera first dance: You know what your problem is, Jess?

Vera fourth dance: You don't flaunt what you got and attract the boys.

Panel two: Jess puts her text book down as Vera is now doing a mix between Walking like an Egyptian and a moon walk as she approaches the door as it is being heavily banged on.

Jess: And those gyrations will?

Vera: They'll be knocking our door down.

SFX: BANG BANG

Panel three: Vera begins to open the door as she looks back at Jess as she smirks in victory at her. Jess sits up startled as she raises her right eyebrow and her lips curls to her right.

Vera: See? When you got it, you got it.

Vera: Now I'm gonna get to getting.

Page 2

Splash page as Jess looks on in shock as Kelly, Summer, Lyric, Paisley and several other members of RHO RHO RHO begin to rush into Jess's room. All of the sorority girls look like they're being chased by the hounds of hell. Vera tilts her head in confusion at seeing all girls.

Vera: Did I just find something out about myself?

Kelly: Hey! Mind if we crash? No? Super duper!

Page 3

Panel one: Jess stands up as several RHO girls begin to jump on her bed and just mess it up. Three of those girls are Paisley, Summer, and Lyric. Other RHO girls are sitting on the ground or standing.

Jess: Okay? What's going on?

Panel two: Kelly is still shaken up but trying to hide it as she puts her right arm around the shoulder of Vera as Vera smiles ear to ear. Vera doesn't seem to care one way or the other.

Kelly: Well, we have an...infestation, so we thought our newest pledge could room us for a bit.

Vera: Just bring the boys and we're cool like Frosty.

Panel three: Jess tilts her head in confusion as the three RHO girls listen on.

Jess: Infestation?

Jess: You mean like roaches and rats?

Panel four: Jess goes wide eyed as Summer talks and Lyric nods her head and points at Summer to show she agrees with her. Paisley shakes her head in aggravation.

Summer: More like manifestation and ghosts and ghoulies.

Lyric: Our sorority house has turned into a haunted house.

Panel five: Jess glares at Kelly as Kelly feigns innocence.

Kelly: Um, I'm pretty sure you need more than one ghost to make a haunted house.

Page 4

Panel one: Trevor is peeking out from the room he was knocked in earlier. On the bed, the girl who was eating brownies is lying on her bed and is mesmerized by the back of her hands. Stewart is walking towards Jess room in the hallway.

Jess in her room: WHAT??!

Trevor: Sigh. Those lung muscles are amazing.

Stewart: Trevor? What are you doing in there?

Panel two: Trevor glares at Stewart as Stewart is startled and jumps back

Trevor: I'm watching the woman I love without her knowing about it! It's romantic as hell!

Panel three: Stewart walks past Trevor as he shrugs his shoulders at Trevor's actions and just decides to leave it at that. The girl now has her feet and hands up in the air as she wiggles her fingers and toes and giggles.

Stewart: Looks like breaking & and entering and stalking to me.

Trevor: How about my fist breaks your nose, enters your face, and stalks for your eyes?

Stewart: Nah. You just remain a law abiding citizen....

Stewart: ...while I serve and protect the ladies the twit-chat said came this way.

Panel four: Stewart enters the room as all the girls, Vera, Jess, and Kelly look at him.

Stewart: I'm here for you, ladies!

RHO Girl: You mean...here for your girlfriend, Vera, right?

Panel five: Stewart rolls his eyes at Vera as he reluctantly acknowledges her. Vera has the exact same facial expression.

Stewart: Oh. Yeah. My beloved butter donkey. Yipee.

Vera: Nice to see you to, bladder spaz.

Panel six: Trevor is kneeling at the now closed door as he has a glass against it. A college girl going into his dorm room looks at Trev with a confused expression as she unlocks her room.

Trevor: Let's hear what's going on.


Page 5

Panel one: Jess is talking with Kelly as Kelly sheepishly rubs her right arm.

Jess: I can't believe you people! You all can't stay here!

Jess: --And why would you have a ghost now all of a sudden??

Panel two: Kelly responds as she can't even look Jess in the eye. Jess puts her thumb on a throbbing vein on her forehead as she tries not to lose her patience.

Kelly: Well...you know that "Good Samaritanina" thingie? Turns out someone was killed for it and is now a ghost reaping unholy vengeance.

Kelly. Oopsie doopsie whoopsies.


Panel three: Jess turns to Paisley as Paisley is very straight laced about everything Jess is saying.

Jess: Paisley. You have a good head on your shoulder, firm grasp of reality, right?

Paisley: Indubitably.

Panel four: Jess has calmed down as she stands in front of the sitting Paisley.

Jess: And you know that the idea that ghosts is just nonsense.

Paisley: It's preposterous.

Jess: So what do you say about helping me get you girls back to your abode?

Panel five: Paisley keeps the same facial expression as the previous panel with Summer and Lyric nodding in agreement with Paisley. Jess gives the reader an aggravated aside glance.

Paisley: I wouldn't go back there if Zac Efron was waiting with a million dollars and a thousand kisses.

Page 6

Panel one: Trevor takes the glass of the door as he snickers.

Trevor: Heh. Typical girls. Saw their own shadows and got spooked. What they need is a man to protect them.

Panel two: Trevor has a very dimly lit cracked light bulb over his head to show he has an idea.

Trevor: Say, when I protected Vera from that fat loser psycho, Jess couldn't keep her hands off me.

Caption: Not totally accurate, but see episode two anyway.

Panel three: Trev is running back into the room as the girl is now eating a bag of Doritos and drinking Fuss soda as she finally notices Trevor.

Trevor: Hah! I'm going to prove that my second biggest muscle is between my ears, not between my legs!

Panel four: Trevor has a white sheet as and is using a black marker to draw in two black dots at the bed of the girl as she looks on in confusion as she is still zoned out.

Trevor: I'll sneak in to RHO house and when my Jess comes, I'll prance around like a ghost, run off...

Panel five: Trevor has the sheet over his head as it only covers up to his ankles and he has his arms sticking out making the costume even more stupid. The girl tilts her head in confusion as she pinches her arm to see if this is really happening.

Trevor: ...Then I'll trounce the sheet, show my machismo, and I'll have Jess holding my hand and picking my nose hairs in no time!

Panel six: Trevor keeps the costume on as he runs into the door frame of the room. The girl goes back to eating her chips as she decides she's just seeing things.


The Stoned Girl: Heh. I need to make another batch of special brownies.



Page 7

Panel one: Jess is talking with Kelly as they are in front of Vera's occupied bed with only the middle part left as Vera looks on trying to figure out how to get in between all the girls.

Jess: You really believe ghosts exist?

Kelly: I threw a sofa at me. That's proof enough for me.

Panel two: Kelly is whispering to Jess as Jess begrudgingly agrees with her as she feels her own fangs. In the background, Vera is leaping into the air and rolled up like a ball as she jumps towards the open spot in the bed as the other girls panic.

Kelly whispering: ...'Sides, vampires are real and we have the fangs to prove it. So why can't ghosts or even unicorns be a thing, too?

Jess: Good points...

Panel three: In the foreground, Stewart is trying his best to charm one of the RHO Girls who frowns and looks away. Stewart is flexing his no existent muscles at her. Kelly and Jess are walking towards him. In the background, Vera is in her bed while the other girls were knocked off of it and lying on the floor around the bed like rag dolls.

Jess: Okay. We'll check with an expert about the validity of ghosts.

Kelly: And unicorns.

Jess: And no.

Stewart: When they made me, they broke the mold.

RHO Girl: Yeah...I wouldn't want to make that mistake again either.

Page 8

Panel one: Jess grabs Stewart by the shirt collar as he leads her and Kelly into the hallway. The RHO smiles as she's glad Stewart will be away from her.

Jess: I need this for a moment.

Stewart: Sheesh! Can't you just ever say, "Stewart, come here please"?

Panel two: Stewart straightens out his shirt as he glares at Jess as Kelly carefully closes the door and waves back at her sisters.

Kelly: Hee. No worries. Leave everything to us.

Stewart: Okay, what do you want?

Jess: We need conformation on a particular matter.


Panel three: Jess is talking to Stewart as Stewart takes a step back away from Jess.

Jess: Stewart, Kelly says she has a ghost in her frat. Is that possible?

Stewart: Course. Ghosts are real. Haven't you watched primetime late night reality shows?

Panel four: Stewart is explaining about ghosts.

Stewart: Ghosts are souls given power through current or past emotion and bound to the earth by unfinished business. Or they're really peeved off about something.

Stewart: Don't take my word for it. You girls are vampires now. Supernatural. So you should be able to see ecto slime or orbs or shifting shapes.

Panel five: Stewart holds his arms at Kelly as Kelly to prove he was right as Kelly makes an O shape with her right hand.

Kelly: Yeah. I saw an orb. And I don't think the other girls saw it. Course they were busy screaming in terror.


Page 9

Panel one: Jess is talking with Stewart as Stewart sticking his finger in his nose as he thinks.

Jess: Well, what can we do about it? Sharing a room with Vera is bad enough, but an entire sorority house--?

Jess: No thank you.

Panel two: Stewart explains what they can do as Jess agrees as Kelly is nervous.

Stewart: Well, like I said. You're supernatural. So you might actually be able to hurt it.

Jess: Good enough.

Kelly: Good enough how?

Panel three: Jess holds out her fist as she encourages and builds up Kelly as Kelly begins to smile.

Jess: C'mon, Kel. You're the president of RHO. You're a vampire who can break down a door! You really going to let some spook put the screws to you, or are you going to fight back??

Panel four: Kelly extends her fist only with her thumb stuck in the middle as she agrees with Jess.

Kelly: I'm going to fight back!!

Panel five: Jess grabs Kelly's hand and begins to move her fingers around to form an accurate fist.

Panel six: Kelly looks in awe at her now perfect fist as Jess looks on nervously.

Kelly: Oh.

Kelly: Nifty.

Page 10

Panel one: Stewart is trying to walk back into Jess's room as he waves goodbye to the two vampires.

Stewart: Have fun being female Ghostbreakers. Hope the feature presentation looks better than the trailers.

Stewart: I'll just keep the girls company while you two bruisers are away...

Panel two: Kelly's hand and Jess's hand grab an arm of Stewart's respectively.

Kelly off-panel: Oh, you'll be keeping girls company...

Jess off-panel: ...It'll just be us!

Panel three: Jess and Kelly are dragging away Stewart as Stewart vainly tries to kick and squirm his way free. The stoner girl from across the hall looks out into the hallway as she is mixing another batch of brownies in a bowl and is whisking it.

Stewart: Why couldn't I know gargoyles?!

Stewart: They sleep during the day, don't involve others in their problems, and make any building structure look classy!!

Page 11

Panel one: Vera is standing in front of the other girls as Vera as Vera soaks in their appreciation. Summer, Lyric, and Paisley are sitting on Jess's bed as the other girls are sitting down behind them or on the ground in front of them.

Lyric: Vera, you're great for letting us stay here.

Vera: I'm great every way, shape, form, perception, angle and thought.

Panel two: Summer is talking with Vera as Vera has a smirk on her face.

Summer: How can we ever repay you?

Panel three: A close-up on Vera's face as it looks devious as her eyes flash and her smiles goes from ear to ear as several shades and shadows make her look even more villainous.

Vera: Yeah. I was thinking about that? How about a few little chores?
Panel four: A shot of all the RHO Girls as the all have the same fearful expression as they realize they've gotten themselves into something possible far worse.

Panel five: Same panel only with Summer and Lyric smiling and happy as they agree. Paisley hangs her head down as she knows she's in for some bad times.

Summer: Sure!

Lyric: It never hurts to help~

Paisley: That's what my cousin said when she needed a bone marrow transplant.

Paisley: She lied.

Caption: Back to the show after these messages!

Yeah. She's special.

Fun fact: I hadn't bought the latest issue of Super Suckers when Trevor grabs Jess, she was a lot more angry with Trevor in the first draft instead of feeling bad about possibly injuring him.

No. I wrote this story long before New Archie. Back when Kevin first got his own title.

I don't mind New Archie at all. I'm not a fan of the Jughead issues I read and Sabrina was awful, but Archie's great, Afterlife is good. I wish the classic was given more respect, but new Archie isn't bad. Heck, it looks like good art is on the way for Jughead.
