The villains have fished me. Is there any hero who isn't out of commission?

I hereby join the ranks of Superheroes.
I am small, can fit in places others can't.
I can imitate the sounds of birds.
I can confound, confuse, and drive insane by using long sentences, obscure words, and quotations from novels.
I have a weakness for redheads too...like another superhero mentioned.
I've read the rules...will set up a super battle forum in a minute...and start attacking the heroes and freeing the villains. Oh dang it, I got that reversed didn't I? I'm dyslexic too, another weakness. I'm not a turncoat tho, my heart is in the right place.
Off to the Barricades

Oh yes, one more superpower...I have the power of an ACE to give helpful tips...here's one I forgot earlier. http://www.h2g2.com/F43499?thread=58866&latest=1 http://www.h2g2.com/F39728?thread=60649&latest=1 http://www.h2g2.com/F40092?thread=58474&latest=1 Adding "&latest=1" will give you the most recent posts in the forum. No need to keep clicking on "show newer posts" Oh yes, if you're frozen and need some help, and I'm not frozen...you can feel free to email me at [email protected] I might unfreeze you quicker. (Are superheroes allowed to be sneaky and devious?) I am also willing to answer any questions you might have about h2g2...I probably don't know the answer...but I will either make something up or find somebody who does know the answer. ;-)

On your question about heroes being devious: let's just say that we've got an Ace up our sleeve. Get it? Ace? Oh, come on, it wasn't that bad.

Not bad...I chuckled...unfortunately...I was dealt a rotten hand of cards this evening...
I had way too much fun this afternoon throwing fishes at villains, that I think I attracted some attention.
I left this evening to have dinner with my grandmother, (a very Peter Parker/Clark Kent thing to do...come to think of it) and returned to discover I had been frozen!
There were no fishes when I left...I checked!
Anybody else out there un-iced who can unfreeze me?

Gavroche Posted Jul 3, 2000
While frozen, I decided to create my own Superhero page...which I did. I also created a forum which others might find useful... It's subject is: Superheros - help, I'm frozen (or something to that effect) This way, when one of us is frozen, we can post to that forum so others can readily see that we are in need of help. Just an idea... http://www.h2g2.com/F47521?thread=62421&latest=1

Dear All, Dear Sundry,
I have heard, through the net of Amazingness of which I am a
part, that you are short of forces to battle the evil minions of
CHOPPERS. Having defeated all the major minions (hmm...) in
my particular region of Metro-Mega city, I feel that I can probably
dein to offer you my services, and thus aid you in the battle that
determines the moral mingle of H2G2.
For those among you who, owing to some form of enforced
deafness/blindness/excommunication, have not heard of me,
here is a brief summary of my not inconsiderable powers...
1) From my Grocery Bag of Good, I can pull an assortment of
bombs, each taking on the appearence of a different vegetables
or plants according to their power. The functions of these "Boom
Fruits" is, at present, classified.
2) The cloak of pure Freem that encases my buff physique,
enables me to fly at the speed of a bullet, and create a wall of
"Chronic Sonic decompressionism", the force of which is
enough to dislodge even the fattest American from their habitual
TV-watching seat. It also looks REALLY cool.
3)Withy my Super-Mangle-O-Gloves, I can exert a force greater
than that of an industrial rubbish compressor, with a speed
greater than that with which the planet itself spins.
4)I carry with me at all times, slung accross my shoulders, a pair
of fully automatic mini-cannons, which I stole from the future
when I battled the Considerable ArkMaster of Flon. They can be
fitted with a variety of Ammo, which I keep in a side pocket of
my Grocery Bag of Good, and fires it so fast the the spinning
barrels have been known to TRAVEL BACK IN TIME.
5)I always carry a torch, and...
6)My Fish Manifesting powers are IMMENSE: just see for
yourself...
And another one...
See. That took practically no effort at all on my part.
Can I join now? I have been personally reccomended by Uncle Heavy as being a healthy addition to any Superhero amalgamation.

Afgncaap5 Posted Jul 4, 2000
Oh, I don't see why not. And if Uncle HEavy recommended you, you can't be that bad. Although, I did take a little offense to that remark about Americans. Then I remembered that for most of us, it isn't far from the truth. So sad . . .
Anyway, welcome aboard! Oh, people, I feel that we need to decide which nominee for President would be best to put our support behind. Someone who's election will be a victory for downtrodden people on h2g2! Unfortunately, there aren't many downtroddens *on* H2G2, unless you count the h2g2 creations (such as Ampton, Sir Ferrari, Ook, the 1,000 CLI monkeys, etc.). I've never felt that they had all the rights they deserve. Anyone know which candidate might support the rights of the H2G2 Creations?

Garius Lupus Posted Jul 4, 2000
Yes, yes, I do, I do. It's (drum roll) The Celery. Check out his campaign headquarters here
http://www.h2g2.com/A383267
He is the perfect candidate for CHOPPERS' support. I should know - I am his official Liason.

Welcome to our league of Superheros! Uhhh...could you read a few msgs up, find the link I posted yesterday to my Super Battle Forum, and de-ice me?
I'm assuming you already know the rules...if not, just ask, I'll explain.
I think there are a few others around here who are a little chilly...you might want to check out the other superbattle forums as well.

Black Swan Posted Jul 7, 2000
Black Swan here...
My greatest power is that noone thinks I exist...so they don't see me coming. (Did you see me coming? I didn't think so.)
I have no weaknesses that I know of.
Gavroche recommended I come here, can I be a superhero too?

Afgncaap5 Posted Jul 7, 2000
Of course! This is turning into quite an escapade: Heroes On Ice! Sorry, couldn't help myself . . .
Honestly, though, how many heroes aren't frozen? BTW, The Celery looks like a good candidate to me. I think he needs support, though. He's off to a good start, but not many people know about him yet.

Garius Lupus Posted Jul 7, 2000
I think we should come out and officially back him. Of course, that would be easier if we had a home page. Are you still intending to do one, Vestboy? If not, perhaps someone else would like to volunteer (I wouldn't mind doing it myself, but I feel that since I am both a super hero and a super villian, I wouldn't be able to do it justice. Completely.)

We DO have a homepage.
Here, look:

There now. Comments? Go on.

Darth Noire Posted Jul 8, 2000
They already have a homepage - http://www.h2g2.com/A380396 - I think it's part of their twisty plans (which they most certainly shouldn't have, they are supposed to be the good guys!) that they don't tell about it even to their own side hoping that we wouldn't find it. They've failed, however, which was to expect.
