How to Be a Comic Book Superhero

Class met in the Danger Room, which had been modified to look like . . . the front of the Kwik Stop. The class (minus a certain reluctant TA) would arrive to find . . . Jay making out with an inflatable doll.



Oh, this boded well. And by 'well', of course, we mean 'terrifyingly', although uncertain whether an adjective or an adverb is grammatically correct in this instance. Bob was busy handing out various sets of blueprints to his students and when he turned to discover this game of silicone tonsil hockey he snatched the doll away with a glare and whapped Jay across the head with it.

"What the fuckk, Lunchbox?" Jay griped, rubbing the back of his head with a sullen glance. "Not like any of these little fuckers are gonna use it right. You're fucking wasting our stash."

Bob seemed unaffected. He tossed the blow-up doll on top of a stack of similar simulated seductresses and turned back to the class, looking pleased with himself, hands on hips and his utility belt, for once, visible.

Jay leaned against a rickety folding table holding a variety of objects. "Alright, Fatass here wanted you all to know that the topic of today's class is 'Always be prepared'. Like this fatass mothafucka was ever a Boy Scout. I once ate a Brownie, though." He straightened up. "Anyway, take a look at those plans 'cause that's your task today – what the fuck, task? What are you, the fucking elf pansy in the purple robes?"

Bob shook a threatening finger at him and nodded towards the kids, telling him to continue

"Huh. Fine. That tight-ass little bitch with the skunk hair is on top of the Perk." He pointed across the rooftops. "You gotta get from here to there and rescue the chick. Me and my black manservant will get all Sentinel on you’re asses and try and stop you, got it?"

Bob held up a finger – one more thing. He gestured at the table, where there was an array of items, enough for every student to get one of each. He began tucking these things into his trenchcoat, demonstrating that they had to be carried before the task began. The blueprints, with various cracked schemes for success on them (intended as guidelines only – Bob encourages creativity), indicated that the items could be used in completing their task. "Lunchbox is like fucking MacGyver Angus with that shit," Jay added proudly and unnecessarily.

When he was sure that they all understood, Jay and Bob started up the ladder on the side of the Kwik Stop towards the roof. Over his shoulder, Jay shouted the last piece of advice. "Oh, and if you little shits get bored you can totally start fucking each other up."

A.J. totally got points for using the grappling hook.

Bob's foot hit the edge of the roof beside the grappling hook and he peered down.

A.J. looked up and sighed a bit thoughtfully. Then shook his head because his hair was totally getting in his eyes. He took note of where he'd put the sock full of quarters, making sure he could reach it easily, and then braced himself for the climb.

Which might take a while.

Bob lifted his eyebrows thoughtfully.

And began flicked beer caps down at him.

Well, that just wasn't very fair. A.J. thought maybe he could pretend (that's all he ever really did in the class, pretend) that he had a beer cap force field, trudging through them and pretending not to notice as he scaled the wall.

"Ow."

So he wasn't all that great with the pretending, but it was hard to pretend away a beer cap between the eyes, man.

Bob snickered (silently) and backed off on his attack. For now.

Almost...there...A.J. decided as he started making it up the line that maybe he should add some push-ups to his jogging routine too. He'd be able to climb up to the roof any moment now....assuming something wasn't going to thwart him. If nothing was, oh, man, that sock of quarters was going to be ready and raring to go.

The roof was . . . empty. Apparently, anyway.

A.J., sock...um...wielded, looked around with a little bit of confusion. Wasn't there supposed to be a girl up here to rescue? Maybe she was hidden...?

No, she was over there. A few roofs away.

In between them, however, had just swooped the somewhat impressive figure of Bluntman.

Aw, maaaan. A.J.'s arms lifted slightly and then slumped down. The princess girl was always in on another castle roof!

So not only was A.J. disheartened, but he was also jumpy. The somewhat impressive figure of Bluntman had a sock of quarters being swung at his shoulder.

Bluntman flinched before he remembered that he was supposed to be the bad guy. He scrambled back, jumping a roof, and gave A.J. the 'bring it' finger.
