Crimson Claw. Pachydermis. Hanna Barbarian. Asp Master. The Last Mayhem Man. It’s far from an elite team, but it’ll have to do.

And that is why you should always say your superhero/villain name out loud before going by it.

Okay… I’m going to come clean.
What’s the joke? >_.>

Just imagine the “p” is an “s” and you’ll get it.

Already did that; just was waiting for something… I dunno, bigger. I mean c’mon as comic book readers I would think we had a higher threshold for such things: isn’t slinging insults mocking the baddies’ names par for the course when it comes to superheroing? XD
I mean, it isn’t like they named a guy dressed in yellow “The Whizzer”. 😉

Well there’s always Hanna Barbarian, possible homage to production company Hanna-Barbera.

I have a feeling that Hanna and Pachydermis aren’t going to survive this chapter.

But then how does he come back later?

Cloning? It was somebody else all along? A temporal rearrangement? In a superhero universe there’s all sorts of ways in which a super can get better from being dead which was one reason I started losing patience with DC in the 1980s when it seemed as though they were on determined to give their heroes the worst deaths and retirements possible. >_<

“on determined” should be “so determined”. *^_^*

That was one of the things that really got to bother me about reading comics (especially DC, because they do seem to love it) in the 2000s as well. It’s one thing to have a character die in a big honorable sacrifice. It’s another thing to have them die because they weren’t looking the right way… and to have them die of something that canonically has never hurt them before and requires a massive change to how their powers work and is given an explanation that doesn’t work (Firestorm, stabbed by a sword, which he’s survived more than once before, but this time he blows up because “everybody knows what happens when you puncture a nuclear reactor”… which is not what he was and is not what would happen if you punctured a nuclear reactor. Ugh.) I had thought that was about as bad as it could get until they killed Pariah without explanation — he was a minor character, but the guy’s one notable power is that he was completely invulnerable to all harm up to and including universal annihilation. Killing him at all, let alone without explanation, is like drowning Aquaman.

Hmmmm! Trying to select the optimal tactical moment for the group versus dealing with the fact that my fellow PCs wanted action RIGHT NOW! I remember that feeling quite well. The Claw definitely has my sympathies here. ^_^;

that is why you say any idea out load so you can hear any cough flaws in it
