Justice Squadron: Comicger Returns Part 1

Back in 2018, in Petropolis, California, famed comic book creator Stanley Chippendale has found a magic gemstone that was actually broken off of a member of the Velocity Star Gang during one of their heists. Intrigued by its otherworldly appearance, Stanley got inspiration for his next comic book, and brought it back to his studio to study it closely. However, the gemstone touched a drawing of one of his creations, Darkanos, bringing him into the real world. As a result of this, Stanley got his son, David, and four of his friends to take on the mantle of their favorite comic book heroes, Justice Squadron: Comicger, to stop Darkanos and his hordes of monsters from taking over the city. Finally, Darkanos was defeated around New Year's Eve of that year. But, from the ashes, a new threat emerges to finish exactly what Darkanos had started. What will this new threat do to try and take over the city of Petropolis? Nobody knows, but there's only one team of heroes that can stop him: Justice Squadron: Comicger.

*After the Velocity Star Gang was driven out of Petropolis by the combined efforts of the Comicgers, Roadrangers, and Team Katswell, a new threat was emerging from the ruins of the Styx Destructor. He came out of his cell in the fortress as just as mass of dark smog, but was then reassembled into his true form, which was that of a court jester with a dark grey and light grey jester's outfit, complete with black jester shoes, spiked black kneepads with a matching spiked black belt, a spiked collar, a flowing grey cape, and a jester's cap with a dark brown mask over his glowing yellow eyes. He also had pale white skin with red fingernails, a wide grin showing razor sharp yellow fangs adorned with red lipstick, and wielded a bronze staff with an image of his own face on its end. He was the Mad Cackler, a villainous jester that Stanley had originally intended to be the main antagonist for the Comicger comics.*

Mad Cackler: (cackling maniacally) Finally, after all my years of waiting, I can finally exact my revenge on the creator for rejecting me. And, once I'm done, not even the Comicgers can be able to stop me. (cackles some more) Soon, this pathetic city will be mine!

ONE YEAR LATER....

*It was June 7, 2020. There was a huge trial going on at the Petropolis Municipal Courthouse for James Thaddeus Grenger for what he did to the Comicgers two years ago, as well as all the other illegal things he has done in the past. Bonnie Rabbitine, Petropolis News reporter, and a close friend to the Comicgers, was standing outside the Courthouse to cover the story.*

Bonnie: This is Bonnie Rabbitine reporting live from the Petropolis Municipal Courthouse, where Grenger Enterprises CEO, James Thaddeus Grenger is on trial for falsely arresting the Comicgers, in addition to all other crimes he has secretly committed. We have just heard all the evidence that needed to be heard, and are now awaiting the final verdict. Let's go to Dorothy Camel in the courtroom for further details.

*We then cut to Dorothy Camel inside the courtroom where the trial was going on.*

Dorothy: Thank you, Bonnie. The jury has just returned from evaluating the evidence, and it seems that they've come to a final verdict.

Judge: Alright, has the jury reached a verdict?

Juror: (standing up holding an envelope containing the verdict) We have, Your Honor. (opens the envelope, and pulls out the verdict) We find James Thaddeus Grenger guilty all of charges presented to us.

*Everyone was in shock and surprise, but the Comicgers, who were in their Ranger suits with their helmets off, along with Stanley, Big Louie, Gerald, Harold, and even Team Katswell were happy to hear the verdict. Grenger, who was in a black and white striped prison suit with his wrists in handcuffs, was outraged.*

Grenger: WHAT?!? How dare you side with those frauds?!? Them and Team Katswell are the ones that should be found guilty!

Judge: That's enough, Grenger! After all the horrible things you did behind everyone's backs these past few years, you more than deserve what's coming to you! In fact, I hereby sentence you to life imprisonment at Albatrozz State Prison. You'll be with your kind there. Court dismissed! (bangs the gable on the podium)

Grenger: (glaring at the Comicgers and Team Katswell) You both haven't heard the last of me! You'll pay for ruining my reputation!

David: Forget it, Grenger! You got what you deserve!

Kitty: And, besides, prison pin stripes look good on you.

Grenger: Grrrrrrrrrrrr. (gets dragged away by some police men)

Dorothy: So, there you have it. James Thaddeus Grenger has been found guilty for all his crimes, and will now be spending the rest of his life in Albatrozz State Prison. Back to you, Bonnie.

*We cut back to Bonnie outside as Grenger is escorted to a police paddy wagon while being photographed by various news photographers.*

Bonnie: Just as I thought. It seems that the long arm of the law has finally caught up to James Thaddeus Grenger, and is now paying for his heinous crimes over the past few years. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. What was once thought to be a well-respected member of the Petropolis Elite was actually revealed to be nothing more than a lying, torturous, manipulative criminal mastermind doing anything and everything he can to achieve money, power, and status. Just goes to show that you can't judge a book by its cover. This is Bonnie Rabbitine for Petropolis News at 8.

*Later that evening, at the after party at Crystal Comics Deluxe, everyone was celebrating the Comicgers' victory in the trial, and the Comicgers themselves were signing autographs for their fans, and even chatting with them. Gerald and Harold were charging everyone for autographs, believing that it will help the store make more money.*

Gerald: Okay, folks, don't be shy. Step right up, and get your autographs from the Comicgers. $5 for an autograph, $10 for a selfie, and $20 for a full photo.

Katie: (approaching Gerald and Harold) Uh, guys? Is this REALLY necessary?

Gerald: What? We're just trying to make the store more money. We gotta keep the place in business somehow.

Harold: Yeah, so what're you complaining about?

Katie: (sighs) I'll never figure you guys out.

*As they continued to mingle with their fans, the Comicgers met up with Kitty as she congratulated them on their victory. She even asked David if he could give her his autograph, and she even gave him hers.*

David: Okay, Kitty, who do you want me to make this out to?

Kitty: My husband, John, given how much of a big fan of you he is. ^^ (finishes writing her autograph) And, here's mine. ^^ (gives it to him)

David: (gives her his) Finally, I got an autograph from Kitty Katswell!

Kitty: And, I got an autograph from the Comicgers! But, I gotta say, I'm very proud of how you guys handled the case. You all kept a level head, carefully explained your dilemma, and backed it all up with strong evidence. Grenger just kept blaming us for everything, acting like a spoiled kid throwing a tantrum, which ended up being his undoing.

David: Yeah, I know. I was concerned that the judge might not believe us after we told him everything.

Kitty: Yeah, well, it didn't matter now. ^^

David:

Dudley: (waiting by the front entrance) Kitty, we gotta head back to HQ.

Kitty: (calling back) I'll be there in a minute! (turns to the Comicgers) Listen, I gotta head back to HQ. I wish you luck in your graduation later this month. ^^

William: No prob, Kitty. I'm sure we'll graduate with top grades.

Paul: Yeah, and I hope the Chief can put in a good word for me. ^^

Kitty: I'm sure he will. (turns to David, and gives him a quick kiss on the cheek) I bet you wanted THAT, didn't you?

David:

Kitty: (turns to Maple, who was taking a selfie with some fans) Oh, and Maple, try to stay outta trouble, will ya?

Maple: Oh, Kitty. You worry too much.

Kitty: Yeah, I know. Bye, everyone!

Comicgers: Bye!

*Then, Kitty leaves Crystal Comic Deluxe with Dudley, and they and the rest of Team Katswell return to TUFF HQ.*

Steve: She really is a pretty nice lady. ^^

Monica: Once you get past her fiery temper, of course.

Steve: Yeah, that's true.

Stanley: (approaching the Comicgers) But, she IS right, y'know! We gotta get ready for your graduation soon. We wouldn't want you to receive your diplomas by slacking off.

David: Aw, c'mon, Dad. We just defeated two major threats to Petropolis. I'm sure we can get diplomas very easily after that.

Stanley: I know, but education is still just as important. Just don't want you to be caught unprepared, is all.

David: Don't worry, Dad. We're the Comicgers. We're prepare for just about anything. ^^

*The Comicgers continued to mingle with their fans, and enjoy the festivities much to Stanley's concern. At the same exact time, back in the ruins of the Styx Destructor, the Mad Cackler has put the first phase of his master plan into action by gathering 12 monsters that attended the monster convention at the end of 2018 that have somehow escaped from being returned to the comics when Stanley destroyed the first gemstone. They all gathered in a conference room that was made out of the remains of Darkanos' throne room, and they were about to begin their first meeting. The Mad Cackler decided to call this new alliance the Club of Monsters.*

Mad Cackler: (slamming his staff on the floor) The meeting will come to order! The first official meeting of the Club of Monsters is now in session! It is the purpose of the Club of Monsters to finish the task that Lord Darkanos has started back in 2018, and bring chaos and destruction to the city of Petropolis. And, to end the lives of our mortal enemies: Justice Squadron: Comicger! To do this, we have gathered twelve of the deadliest monsters to have ever graced the pages of the Comicgers comic book series.

*He then begins to introduce the monsters he has gathered.*

Mad Cackler: First, the fast, agile, and durable Speed Shell.

*Speed Shell, a dark green turtle monster with a yellow and green shell wearing navy blue and yellow gym shorts, a heart monitor on his chest, dark grey Fitbit watches, black sneakers with his toe claws sticking out, an orange headpiece, and white goggles, starts running around the room at high speeds.*

Mad Cackler: The beautiful, yet deadly Rose Brawl.

*Rose Brawl, a green plant monster with a blue face, shoulders, hands, and feet, and was covered with roses, throws the rose he was holding in his hands like a dart, and it hits a portrait of Darkanos right in his face.*

Mad Cackler: The not so sweet old Granny Agem, and Crusty Clawbster!

*Crusty Clawbster, a red lobster monster with gold teeth, anchor tattoos on both biceps, wearing blue jeans and a lobster bib around his neck that said "How 'Bout Some Buttah?" on it, uses his pincers to crush the table he was sitting at while Granny Agem, an creepy old monster with shagging brown skin, gray hair, red lipstick, clawed hands, razor-sharp teeth, and wearing black heels, pink glasses, a dark green dress, and a white apron with the faces of screaming people on it, looks on.*

Mad Cackler: The wild Koala-Rang, and the powerful Slammerhead.

*Koala-Rang, a koala monster that was dressed like an Aborigine warrior, complete with white war paint on his body, and Eucalyptus trees on his forearms, looks at Slammerhead, a shark with a literal hammerhead wearing a tool rack on his chest with red and yellow shoulder pads with matching wrist bracers, and a blue and yellow pair of pants with a matching yellow belt, slams his hammerhead on the table, leaving a hole in it.*

Mad Cackler: Barb Urchin, and the bionic Termi-Gator.

*Barb Urchin, a jade green sea urchin monster covered in yellow spikes with purple lips wearing spiked bracelets on her wrists, black shorts held up by a wrestles belt with the letter "U" on the gold buckle, and light purple boots, looks at the Termi-Gator, a brownish-gold crocodile monster with a cybernetic red eye, mini-turrets on his left wrist, a brown leather vest, and torn-up dark brown pants held up by a belt with a reptilian orange eye buckle, snaps his robotic right arm with the hand resembled a robotic crocodile head.*

Mad Cackler: The horrifying Bonehead, and the burning hot Solar Flare.

*Solar Flare, a yellow sun monster with orange hands and feet resembling sunspots, wearing a black and white outfit with a tanning mirror on his chest, solar panels on his shoulders, and a Bunsen burner collar, holds up some photos of the Comicgers in civilian form, and burns them as Bonehead, a yellow skeleton monster with a skull for a torso, wearing a light green bandana, purple harem pants with ribs on the thighs, and beige spiky shoes, and carrying a burlap sack, looks on with sadistic glee.*

Mad Cackler: The farm-raised Shear Crow, and the fierce and cunning Jackalina.

*Shear Crow, a ram-like scarecrow monster with hay instead of wool, wearing blue overalls and a straw hat, and carrying a shepherd's cane, was watching as Jackalina, a black jackal monster with an Egyptian motif, two jackal heads on her shoulders, and wearing an orange African tribal dress, sticks her Ikwa spears into the table.*

Mad Cackler: Not to mention, the twisted genius, unpredictable cunning, and brilliant leadership of myself, the nefarious Mad Cackler! (cackles gleefully)

Solar Flare: Alright, Cackler. Why have you brought us all together?

Crusty Clawbster: (in a Boston accent) Yeah, what's the deal, here?

Mad Cackler: As you may recall, you were the only twelve monsters that survived being sent back to the comics after the Comicgers have defeated Darkanos two years ago. You've attended the monster convention to celebrate the promised end of the world, did you not?

Shear Crow: Yup, pardner. Though, I gotta say, the food they had there definitely wasn't farm-raised, and felt processed.

Granny Agem: I just wanted to see my darling grandson Darkanos make his old granny proud, and take over the city. You want to see his baby pictures? (pulls out her wallet to show everyone Darkanos' baby pictures)

Speed Shell: (turning down the offer) I think I'll pass, thank you.

Slammerhead: (clears throat) Anyway, after Darkanos was defeated, and all the monsters were sent back to the comics, the rest of us pretty much went into hiding for about two years. I mean, could you imagine sharing a cave with eleven other knuckleheads? It ain't pretty, I can tell you THAT much!

Termi-Gator: (in an Austrian accent) Ya! It's not pleasant!

Mad Cackler: Well, anyway, I've brought you all here so we can finish what Darkanos had started two years ago, and take over this pathetic city! But, in order to do that, we must get rid of the only thing standing in our way. Ladies and gentlemen, we must first dispose of the brats who have destroyed our fallen master's chance at taking over this city: Justice Squadron: Comicger!

*The monsters start cheering as the Mad Cackler shows clips of past episodes showcasing the Comicgers' various victories over Darkanos' forces.*

Mad Cackler: For a year, these brats have stood in the way of Darkanos' conquest of the city, sending each and everyone of his monsters back to the comics. (ends the clip show) I strongly believe that the reason why he wasn't successful at first was because he sent his monstrous minions once each week. But, I'd like to see what would happen if the Comicgers had to battle TWELVE monsters at once! And, we have them outnumbered 13 to 11.

Barb Urchin: True, but even with those slim odds against them, they still manage to find a way to come out on top.

Jackalina: So, how do you intend to tackle THAT?

Mad Cackler: I'm glad you asked, Jackalina. ^^ I intend to have each of you kidnap one member of the Comicgers, and diminish their numbers to just one: Comic Red. Why him? Because he's the son of my creator: Stanley Chippendale! Y'see, I was originally meant to be the main antagonist of the Comicger comics, until I was put aside in favor of Darkanos. So, I want us to overpower Comic Red to get at Chippendale so he can be begging for mercy! He loves his son as much as he loves making comics!

Koala-Rang: (with a slight Australian accent) I see.

Bonehead: Playing on our creator's emotions as revenge, huh? Interesting.

Mad Cackler: Now, even as we speak, the teenage Comicgers are getting ready for their high school graduation later this month. So, I want us to capture them as they are getting ready. As for the adult Comicgers, we'll do the same to them! Soon, there will be nothing to stop us from completing Darkanos' goal, and taking over this city!

Rose Brawl: Yeah, let's do it!

Mad Cackler: That's what I like to hear! (cackles maniacally)

*The monsters all join in the evil laughter, as well. The next morning, David was in his room looking out the window, looking back on his high school, when Stanley came in with his graduation outfit.*

Stanley: Oh, there you are, David. Your graduation robe and cap just arrived. (places it on his bed, and notices him looking out the window) Feeling sentimental, kiddo?

David: Yeah, Dad. I can't believe I'm graduating from high school in a few weeks. It feels like I just started learning everything you need to know for the real world. < : )

Stanley: (sitting down next to him) I know. Not to mention, being a Comicger didn't make it any easier.

David: Well, it's not like that was done on purpose.

Stanley: I know, but still. I can't believe this day is finally coming. I'm so proud of what you were able to accomplish. < : )

David: Aaawww, thanks Dad. (hugs his father)

Stanley: (getting teary-eyed) Oh, if only your mother was here to see this momentous occasion.

David: Yeah, I miss Mom, too. I wish she hadn't of left you.

Stanley: Same here. The reason why she left us was basically because I was so wrapped up in my work creating all my comics, and didn't spend as much time with her as she thought. I felt so guilty about it after she left, and I wish I could apologize to her about unintentionally neglecting her.

David: Don't worry, Dad. I'm sure if she was here right now, I'm sure she'll forgive you. < : )

*However, little did they know that they were about get an unexpected visitor. A middle-aged female chipmunk with long brown hair with pearl earrings on her ears, a white blouse with a grey jacket over it, a grey skirt, and beige dress boots stormed up to the front door of their house, and banged on it very hard. This chipmunk was actually Eliza Chippendale, Stanley's ex-wife, and she was back in Petropolis after hearing about the Comicgers in Los Angeles.*

Eliza: STANLEY CHIPPENDALE!!!!! I KNOW YOU AND DAVID ARE IN THERE!!!!!

Stanley: (getting scared) Uh-oh! I know that voice!

David: So much for forgiving you.

*The two of them nervously approached the front door, and they begin to open it slowly. They eventually see Eliza standing there with her arms crossed and a less than thrilled expression on her face.*

Stanley: Oh, hi there, Eliza. We were just talking about you.

David: Yeah, hi Mom.

Eliza: Can the hi's, you two! Stanley, would you kindly do me the favor of explaining THIS?!? (holds up the newspaper, showing the Comicgers on the front page)

Stanley: Oh, boy. Well, you see, I found this magic gemstone on the shores of Lake Petropolis, and when I brought it home, it brought the villains of my comics to life. So, I had David and his friends take on the powers of the Comicgers, so they can...

Eliza: (cutting him off) Oh, sure. Get David involved in your little comic book world. Stanley, this is exactly why I wanted nothing to do with your line of work! I wanted David to grow up to be a responsible, hard-working young man, not some oversized kid who spends a huge chunk of time creating silly comic books!

David: (butting in) Mom, please! That's not what happened! Dad's telling you the truth!

Eliza: Oh, is he? (raising an eyebrow)

David: Yeah!

Eliza: (thinking it over) Well, I'll listen to what you have to say. So, make it good!

Stanley: I will, dear. Now, come inside, please.

*Stanley then lets Eliza in, makes her some coffee, and begins to explain in detail what they've been through back in 2018. After a long while, Eliza begins to believe them, but asks David to morph in front of her so that Stanley's explanation holds up.*

Eliza: Okay, Stanley. That actually sounds pretty plausible. But, I'll need to see David morph into Comic Red, or whatever you call it, just to make sure it holds water.

Stanley: Alright, then. David, you heard your mother. Show her.

David: Sure thing, Dad. Comic Turner, activate! (the Comic Turner converts to its original form) Comic Powers! Turn On! (flicks the on switch on his Comic Turner, and morphs into his Ranger form) Justice for all! Comic Red! (does his Ranger pose)

Eliza: (taken aback by what she saw) Oh, my! That was... surprising! I guess you were telling the truth, Stanley.

Stanley: Yeah, I was.

David: Look, Mom. I know it's something you don't really approve of, but ever since I got these new powers, I've become a much more confident individual. I hope you understand why that is.

Eliza: (thinking about it) David, I'm very proud of what you were able to accomplish. But, I can't have you continue with this monster-fighting superhero schtick any further for your own safety. Which is why, after you graduate from high school at the end of the month, you'll be coming home with me to Los Angeles to begin your future.

David: (morphing back to his civilian form with a concerned look on his face) What? But, Mom, Petropolis is my home!

Eliza: Well, not anymore. It's time you gave up this comic book world, and become a more proper member of society. (looks at her son, who was distraught) I'm sorry, David. But, it's my choice.

David: (turns to Stanley) Dad, should I?

Stanley: (feeling just as shocked as David was) I... I'm not sure, David. This just seems... so sudden.

Eliza: (realizing that it was a hasty choice) Hmmmmm. On second thought, what I said did sound pretty hasty. I'll tell you what: I'll give you until the end of the graduation ceremony to think about it. I want your decision by then. You can either come back to Los Angeles with me, or stay in Petropolis and continue to be a Ranger.

David: Okay, Mom.

Eliza: Good. In the meantime, I'll be staying here for graduation. Can you help me with my bags, please?

Stanley: Oh, of course, dear. C'mon, David. Let's help your mother out.

*Then, David and Stanley went outside to help Eliza bring her bags into the house. Meanwhile, back with the Club of Monsters, the Mad Cackler begins discussing the plan to capture each of the Comicgers, and how each of the monsters will do it.*

Mad Cackler: Ladies and gentlemen, I have decided how each of you will be able to capture the Comicgers, as well as which Comicger each of you are assigned to. First, I'll start with Bonehead, Granny Agem, and Speed Shell, since they have pretty unique ways of making sure they don't fight back.

Bonehead: Oh, this should be good. What are your intentions?

Mad Cackler: Since you spoke up first, Bonehead, YOU will be going after Comic Purple! You can remove his backbone, literally, turning him into a sniveling coward who won't be able to fight back. And, given how he's a doctor, it pretty much makes sense. (turns to Speed Shell) Speed Shell, you'll be going after Comic Blue. You can use your powers to slow him down to a crawl, making him easier to catch!

Speed Shell: Sounds good to me!

Mad Cackler: And, as for Granny Agem, she'll be going after Comic Aqua, stealing her youth, and turning her into an old lady. That should be easy for her to capture.

Granny Agem: Oh, definitely!

Mad Cackler: As for the rest of you, Solar Flare will be going after Comic Liberty. Crusty Clawbster will have Comic Black. Barb Urchin will be going after Comic Platinum. Comic Pink is Rose Brawl's. Jackalina will be going after Comic Orange. Koala-Rang is going after Comic Green. And, finally, Shear Crow is going after Comic Yellow. Termi-Gator and Slammerhead will be accompanying me in going after Comic Red, as well as Stanley Chippendale. Once we have them all, we'll bring them back here, and dispose of them!

Slammerhead: (liking the sound of the plan) Ooooooo. I like the sound of that. ^^

Rose Brawl: So, what do we do with them once we bring them back?

Mad Cackler: This! (shoots a red beam from his staff, and it shoots an old portrait of Rozoson, leaving a creepy red mark resembling a smile on it) They'll be going out with a smile on their faces, so to speak.

Rose Brawl: Fascinating.

Koala-Rang: (thinks of something) But, uh, what if Stanley creates a new Comicger to help out the other ones? I mean, if the defeat of all the previous monsters has proven anything, it's that he doesn't give up, and is full of surprises.

Mad Cackler: (denying it) Fool! There's no way he can create a new Ranger! That's just ridiculous! Besides, with our combined strength, we'll be too much for him and his little Rangers to even comprehend!

Koala-Rang: (shrugging it off) Whatever you say.

Mad Cackler: Now, those foolish children should be getting ready for their graduation right about now. So, let's get moving!

Crusty Clawbster: I sure hope it's a long ceremony, 'cause it's gonna be a short prom for them!

Mad Cackler: Exactly! Now, let's go!

*Then, they all disappeared to tackle their respective duties. Rose Brawl appeared in front of Katie's house, and makes a huge bouquet of roses appear in front of him to pretend that he's given her a free bouquet for her graduation. Inside, Katie was doing her hair, and she too was nervous and excited about graduating.*

Katie: Oh, this is so exciting. ^^ I can't believe the big day is finally here. ^^

*Her father, Rajah, comes in with a proud look on his face.*

Rajah: It's still hard to believe that my little girl is all grown up. I think I'm gonna cry.

Katie: (turning around to see him) Oh, Daddy. I know it's exciting, but try not to get all sentimental now. Save it for the ceremony, okay?

Rajah: I know, Katie. But, you know how emotional I get. (hugs his daughter, and thinks of something) By the way, have you ever thought about carrying on my ballet skills, and pursuing a career in the art of dance?

Katie: Actually, Dad, I was thinking of going to work for Mr. Chippendale, and maybe get my "Madam Swan" comic published. I'm sorry it's not what you were expecting, but it's something I've always wanted to do myself.

Rajah: (feeling a little disappointed) I'm disappointed that you chose not to be a ballerina, Katie. But, I respect your decision. Maybe once you get the first issue published, you can give ME the first copy. How does THAT sound?

Katie: Okay, Daddy. (hugs her father back)

*Downstairs, Katie's mom, Jennifer, hears the doorbell, and goes over to answer it. At the door was Rose Brawl hiding behind the bouquet of roses he plans to give to Katie.*

Rose Brawl: Complimentary bouquet of roses for Miss Katie Bengalo.

Jennifer: My, how thoughtful of you. Let me go get my daughter, so I can...

*But, Rose Brawl uses a sleeping powder on Jennifer to make her fall asleep. After she collapsed to the ground, Rose Brawl lets himself in, and proceeds to make his way to Katie's room.*

Rose Brawl: All to easy. Now, to get to Katie herself! (starts walking up the stairs)

*As he heads towards Katie's room, Rose Brawl kicks open the door, and shoots his thorny vines at Rajah, pinning him to the wall.*

Rose Brawl: First of all, congratulations on your graduation, Katie. Secondly, you'll be spending your ceremony at the mercy of the Mad Cackler!

Katie: (recognizing Rose Brawl) Wait a sec! You're Rose Brawl, from Comicger Issue #96, aren't you?

Rose Brawl: That's right! And, I'm gonna give a nice, delicate flower like yourself to the not-so-delicate Mad Cackler! How do you like THAT?

Katie: (standing her ground) Not gonna happen, buddy! (holds up her Comic Turner as it converts back to its original form) Comic Powers, Turn O...

Rose Brawl: I don't think so! (shoots his sleeping powder at Katie, making her fall asleep)

Rajah: Katie, no!!!

Rose Brawl: Time for me to wilt away like the flower I am! (picks Katie up, and disappears in a flurry of rose petals)

*Meanwhile, Alyssa was taking a walk while listening to her iPod, when she notices Granny Agem over at the street corner disguised as a regular old lady, looking to cross the street.*

Granny Agem: Oh, hello, young lady. Would you be so kind as to help me cross the street. < : )

Alyssa: Oh, sure thing, ma'am. (takes her hand, and helps her across the street)

*Once they make it to the other side, Granny Agem notices her Comic Turner.*

Granny Agem: Oh, you must be one of those nice Comicgers, aren't you?

Alyssa: Yes, I am. But, no need to give me a reward for my good deed. I'm just happy to help. ^^

Granny Agem: Oh, but I insist! All I want to give you... is the gift of being an old geezer like me! (shoots a beam at Alyssa, turning her into an old lady)

*Granny Agem sheds her disguise, and places Alyssa's youth in her apron of wailing youth. Alyssa started walking with a hunched over posture, and started feeling aches in her joints.*

Alyssa: Sweet sarsaparilla! What did you do to me?

Granny Agem: I just took your youth and beauty, deary! Now, you'll spend the rest of your days rotting in the Mad Cackler's dungeon!

Alyssa: (recognizing Granny Agem) Wait! You're Granny Agem, from Comicgers Issue #5, and Darkanos' grandmother!

Granny Agem: Yes, deary, and you and your friends will pay for what you did to my dear grandson! Now, come along now! The Mad Cackler is waiting for you! (grabs Alyssa's arm, and cackles herself as she disappears along with her)

*Meanwhile, at Grammy Capuchin's Hospital for Children, Julian was tending to a young warthog boy who had just broken his leg, and notices a Comicger comic book that he was reading.*

Julian: Oh, you're reading a Comicger comic book, huh? (sees that Bonehead is on the cover) That skeleton monster looks pretty freaky!

Warthog Boy: Yup. Bonehead can remove his victims backbones, turning them into sniveling cowards.

Julian: Well, there's no way he's gonna get me. I'm as brave as a lion. (starts to wonder what issue it was) What Issue is it, by the way?

Warthog Boy: Um, Number 13, I think?

Julian: Ah, an early issue, I see.

Grammy Capuchin: (on the intercom) "Dr. Julian Capuchin, there's some guy with some broken bones on the first floor that needs your immediate attention."

Julian: (hearing the announcement) Listen, I gotta go. You just take it easy, okay? (heads out of his room, and down to the first floor)

Warthog Boy: Okay. ^^

*As Julian heads to the first floor, he sees a kid with a beanie cap in a wheelchair with the back facing towards him, looking out the window.*

Julian: So, you're saying your bones are broken, eh? Tell me which one it is!

Kid: It's my backbone! It needs replacing... WITH ONE OF YOURS! (turns around to reveal himself as Bonehead) So, I'd like a transfer, please!

Julian: (recognizing Bonehead) Bonehead, from the Comicgers comics?!? Well, you're not getting MY backbone!

Bonehead: We'll see about THAT! (removes his beanie cap, and gets up to remove Julian's backbone)

*Julian tries to fight back against Bonehead, but Bonehead was able to elbow him in the jaw, and sticks his hand in his back. He then pulls out Julian's backbone, and puts it in his bag, leaving Julian a cowering, stuttering mess.*

Julian: (getting scared) No, please! Stay away from me!

Bonehead: (laughing) HAHAHAHA!!! Success! Now, to bring him back to the Mad Cackler!

*Bonehead grabs Julian by the shirt of his collar, and disappears from the hospital with him. Meanwhile, at Monica's house, she and her family were taking photos of her in front of her house, much to her chagrin. Monica was wearing her graduation cap and gown, but was wishing she was wearing something to hide her embarrassment.*

Monica: Are we just about done yet? >////<

Mrs. Scaleman: Oh, stop it, Monica! You know your father and I are proud of you.

Mr. Scaleman: And, don't worry. We'll always be there for you! ^^

Monica: (under her breath) That's what I'm afraid of.

Mr. Scaleman: (tries to take another picture, but sees that he's out of memory in his camera) Darn it! My camera's out of memory! I'll have to delete some pics. (does so, and notices the scarecrow on the lawn) That's funny. I don't remember buying a scarecrow for the front yard.

Mrs. Scaleman: (looking at it as well) Yeah, neither do I.

Monica: (seeing that the scarecrow had a ram's face) Hey, wait a second...

*It was then revealed that the scarecrow was actually Shear Crow, and he immediately came to life, attacking the Scaleman family.*

Shear Crow: Howdy, Monica!

Emily: Hey, Monica! Isn't that Shear Crow, from Issue #83 of your Comicger comics?

Monica: Yeah, and it doesn't look like he's asking for a brain!

Shear Crow: Nope! All ah'm askin' for is for y'all to have an audience with the Mad Cackler! (shoots blasts of straw at Monica)

*Monica tries to morph, but her graduation gown gets filled up with straw, making her unable to move her limbs.*

Monica: Shoot!

Shear Crow: There you go, all nice and vacuum sealed for the Mad Cackler! Bye-bye! (using his staff to roll Monica along as he leaves the yard)

Mr. Scaleman: I think we should call Mr. Chippendale.

Mrs. Scaleman: I agree.

*Over at the Bisons' house, Paul was just reading his acceptance letter from TUFF Academy, and his mom was getting his graduation gown and cap ironed.*

Paul: (sighs) I can't believe I've been accepted to TUFF Academy. Normally, they're very picky about who gets in.

Mrs. Bison: Well, it's a good thing you were lucky, Paul. ^^

Paul: Yeah. ^^

*Then, there was a knock at the door, and Mrs. Bison went over to answer it. When she opened the door, she was knocked out by one of Koala-Rang's boomerangs, and when it came back to him, he let himself inside to try and get to Paul.*

Koala-Rang: G'day, Paul. I just thought I'd drop by to give you my graduation gift to you.

Paul: (getting up, and recognizing Koala-Rang) Hey, you're Koala-Rang, from Comicgers Issue #46! What're YOU doin' here?!?

Koala-Rang: Just here to give you a special audience with the Mad Cackler! (throws another boomerang at Paul)

*Paul tries to hold up his Comic Turner and morph into his Ranger form, but he gets knocked out by the boomerang as well. Koala-Rang picks him up over his shoulder, and carries him outside.*

Koala-Rang: Oh, this was as easy as munchin' on a gum tree.

*Elsewhere, Aaron was in his office at the main HQ of the Amphibians' Rights Association doing some paperwork, when he heard a knock on his door.*

Aaron: Who is it?

Crusty Clawbster: Uh... special delivery for a Mr. Aaron McCroaky.

Aaron: C'mon in, and make it quick. I have a graduation ceremony to attend pretty soon.

Crusty Clawbster: Okay, bro! (uses his claws to break through the door, and barges right into the room) Hey there, Aaron! You've got an appointment with the Mad Cackler!

Aaron: (getting up surprised) Hang on! Aren't you one of the monsters from the Comicgers comics?

Crusty Clawbster: Yup. The name's Crusty Clawbster from Issue #99! Now, come along quietly!

Aaron: Fat chance of THAT happening! (starts fighting with Crusty Clawbster)

*However, it was all for naught, as Crusty Clawbster was able to grip him in his abdomen with his claws. Even though Aaron got out quickly, Crusty Clawbster bashes him in the head, knocking him out. He then picks him up, and carries him back to the Mad Cackler. Meanwhile, at William's house, William and his parents were talking about his future after graduation.*

Mr. Keiko: So, William, have you thought about what you wanna do after graduation?

William: Yeah, Dad. I'm thinking of working at Chippendale Comics, hopefully to get my Quarterback comic idea finally published.

Mrs. Keiko: Oh, that sounds like a good idea. ^^

Mr. Keiko: I was expecting you to go pro with your football skills, however.

William: Yeah, I know. But, I believe that there's more important things to me than football.

Mr. Keiko: Oh, yeah.

*As they continued talking, they failed to notice Speed Shell sneaking up behind them, getting ready to make William slow.*

Speed Shell: There he is! Now, to work my magic on him! (aims his heart monitor at William, and fires a red beam at him)

*The beam hits William and his parents, making them very slow. William notices Speed Shell behind them, and slowly gets up to try and fight him.*

William: (slowly) Oooooooh noooooooooo, iiiiiiiiiit's Speeeeeeeeed Sheeeelllllllll, frooooooooom Comicgeeeeeeeeeers Issuuuuuue #40!

Speed Shell: (happily skipping towards William) Eeny meeny miny mo! Take a Ranger, and make him slow! (pulls out a rope, and proceeds to tie William up) There we go! All tied up with nowhere to go! (picks William up, and runs back to the Mad Cackler with a smile on his face)

*Meanwhile, at Crystal Comics Deluxe, Steve and Maple were helping Big Louie get some extra work done around the store, as well as getting a party set up for after the graduation ceremony.*

Big Louie: Thank you both for helping me get this surprise party for after the graduation ceremony. (gets sentimental) I can't believe those kids are finally graduating from high school.

Steve: Yeah. It feels like only yesterday when I first met them. ^^

Maple: I kinda get the feeling. But, no matter what happens to them, they'll always be my best peeps to me. ^^

Steve: (raising an eyebrow) Really, Maple?

Maple:

Big Louie: (realizing that they're falling behind) Oh, look at us! We're acting like a bunch of ninnies! We gotta keep moving! The kids'll be here before we even get started decorating!

Steve: Right away, boss!

*As they continued working, Barb Urchin and Solar Flare were making their way through the store, looking for Steve and Maple. They eventually find them, and Solar Flare shoots a blast of fire at them to get their attention.*

Big Louie: (seeing the blaze) What was that?!?

Steve: A stream of fire! (sees the monsters) It came from those two!

Solar Flare: We're looking for Steve Baldwin and Maple Howler, otherwise known as Comic Liberty and Comic Platinum!

Steve: (stepping forward) That's us, buddy.

Maple: (recognizing the monsters) Hey, that's Solar Flare from Issue #27 of the Comicger comics, and that's Barb Urchin from Issue #24! What're you two doing here?!?

Barb Urchin: We're here to hand you over to the Mad Cackler! So, if you'll kindly come with us, if you please! (shoots her barbs at Steve and Maple)

*The barbs get on Steve and Maple's clothes, pinning them to the wall. Big Louie tries to run over to help them, but Solar Flare shoots a sunspot at him, causing him to get stuck to the floor.*

Solar Flare: I don't think so, monkey-boy.

Barb Urchin: Alright! Let's deliver the goods to the Mad Cackler!

*Barb Urchin and Solar Flare grab Steve and Maple, and bring them over to the Mad Cackler. Big Louie gets out of the sunspot, and starts to get worried.*

Big Louie: Oh, no! I've got to warn Stanley! (runs off to his office)

*Meanwhile, at her fortune telling shop, Linda has just seen what just happened to the other Comicgers through a vision, and starts to get worried that the same thing's about to happen to her.*

Linda: Oh, my! The others are in trouble, and the graduation ceremony hasn't even started, yet! I've gotta notify Mr. Chippendale immediately! (begins to contact Stanley on her Comic Turner, but gets halted by a vision of her getting captured by Jackalina) Oh, drat! I've got a bad feeling that I'm gonna get an unwanted customer!

Jackalina: (using her spears to tear through the chiffon curtains, and confronts Linda) There you are, Miss Starchild! I am Jackalina, from Comicgers Issue #97! You have a date with the Mad Cackler today!

Linda: Well, tell him to take a rain check on that! (holds up her Comic Turner as it converts back to its original form) Comic Powers! Turn On! (flicks on the on switch on her Comic Turner, and morphs into her Ranger form)

*As she did that, Jackalina throws her spears at her, but since she predicted this, she was able to deflect them. Afterwards, Linda and Jackalina began fighting with each other, knocking over her fortune telling table, as well as her crystal ball, which thankfully Linda caught. After using it to bonk Jackalina on the head, Linda puts it back on its pedestal, and proceeds to make her escape.*

Linda: Sorry, but this is one date I won't be attending. So, hasta la vista, baby! (drops a special smokescreen to the ground, and makes her escape)

Jackalina: (disappointed that she failed) You can't escape forever! I won't be defeated so easily! (drops to the floor unconscious)

*Back in the suburbs, Gerald and Harold were walking down the street to David's house, hoping to ask Stanley for a favor.*

Harold: Hey, uh, Gerald, why are we heading over to Mr. Chippendale's place, again?

Gerald: I wanna ask him if it's okay if we played the Comicgers' theme song as they come up to get their diplomas during the ceremony, Harold.

*As they got closer to David's house, they began to notice the Mad Cackler, Termi-Gator, and Slammerhead coming towards it as well. They get surprised, and hid behind a bush to see what's going on.*

Gerald: _{Hey, that's Termi-Gator, from Issue #85 of the Comicgers comic!}

Harold: _{Yeah, and that's Slammerhead from Issue #76! But, who's that freaky looking jester dude with them?}

Gerald: _{I dunno. But, we're gonna find out! C'mon, Harold!}

*Gerald grabs Harold by the collar of his shirt, and they sneak up behind the three monsters. Inside the house, David and Stanley were able to get Eliza all set up, and then she comes down to ask them what their plans for dinner were.*

Eliza: So, uh, what do you boys have planned for dinner tonight?

Stanley: Well, we were gonna have some stir fry, along with some stewed acorns. Did you have something else in mind?

Eliza: Well, I wasn't in the mood for anything in particular, so I thought I'd ask.

David: That's quite alright, Mom. ^^

*Just then, Linda appears through the back window leading to the kitchen, and she quickly approaches the Chippendales.*

Linda: Oh, David! Mr. Chippendale! I'm super glad I caught you both at home! It seems that we've got a major problem! The... (suddenly notices Eliza) Who're you?

Eliza: (looking at Linda with a stern look on her face) I happen to be Eliza Chippendale, Stanley's ex-wife! Who are YOU?!? Another of my ex-husbands little comic book heroes?

Stanley: Oh, dear. Honey, this is Linda Starchild, the city's resident fortune teller, and the Orange Ranger of the Comicger team.

Linda: (removing her helmet) Yes, I help the team out by predicting what kind of situations they might end up getting into. I can also predict the enemies' movements before they even make them.

Eliza:

David: Seriously, Mom! She's super helpful to us! (turns to Linda) Now, what was it you were about to tell us?

Linda: Oh, yes! Listen to me, something's happened to the other Comicgers! It seems that they've been captured by stragglers from the monster convention two years ago! One of them, a jackal-like creature that looked like that warrior chick from the "Black Panther" movie, invaded my shop, and tried to nab me!

David: (recognizing what Linda said) Wait! Jackalina from the Comicger comics tried to nab you!

Linda: Yes!

Stanley: (not believing it) That's impossible! All the monsters immediately returned to the comics once I destroyed the original gemstone!

Linda: (second guessing him) Well, it doesn't seem to be the case this time! Also, on my way over here, I had another vision that three more monsters are approaching your doorstep right now, ready to capture David! (hears a knock on the door) Uh-oh! That's gotta be them! (quickly rushes to the door) Uh.... nobody's home! Go away!

Eliza: (getting angrier) Stanley.....

Stanley: Uh-oh.

David: (calming Stanley down) Dad, chill! I'm sure Linda and I can handle this no problem.

*Then, Slammerhead uses his hammer head to knock down the door, letting himself, Termi-Gator, and the Mad Cackler in. Gerald and Harold were hiding in the shrubs by the door, waiting for the right moment to help out.*

David, Stanley, Eliza, and Linda: (gasping in unison)

Mad Cackler: Hello, Stanley Chippendale. It's been TOO long, hasn't it? >: )

Stanley: (recognizing the Mad Cackler) No, I don't believe it! This can't be happening!

David: (raising an eyebrow) You know him, Dad?

Stanley: Yes, David! That thing was originally going to be the main antagonist of the Comicger comics!

David: (shocked) What?

Mad Cackler: Oh, yes! And, I never forgave you for pushing me aside in favor for Darkanos! But, enough about me! Allow me to introduce to you my friends. (points at Termi-Gator) This is Termi-Gator.

Termi-Gator: (brandishing his robotic hand) Ya! Hello there, Chippendales!

Mad Cackler: (pointing at Slammerhead) And, this is Slammerhead.

Slammerhead: Nice to meet ya!

Linda: See? You believe me, now?

Stanley: Oh, yeah! I think so, now!

David: (confronting the Mad Cackler) Alright, you crazy clown! What have you done with my friends?!?

Mad Cackler: You'll see soon enough, Comic Red! In fact, we'll take them to you right now!

David: Over my dead body!

Termi-Gator: That can be arranged, you big baby! (starts shooting his robotic crocodile hand at David)

*As he was about to fire at David, Gerald and Harold pop out from the bushes, and were able to jump on him and Slammerhead, putting them both in headlocks.*

Gerald: Not so fast, you creep-a-zoids!

Harold: Yeah, what HE said! (pokes his horn at Slammerhead's back)

Slammerhead: YEOWCH!!!!!!! X_X

David: Gerald and Harold? What're you guys doing here?!?

Gerald: (getting flung around) No time to explain, David! Just morph!

David: Uh... okay! (holds up his Comic Turner) Comic Turner, activate! (the Comic Turner converts to its original form) Comic Powers! Turn On! (flicking the on button on his Comic Turner, and morphing into his Ranger form)

Linda: Hey! Don't leave ME out of this! (puts her helmet back on, and joining with David)

David: Of course not, Linda! Let's go!

Mad Cackler: (getting ready to fight them) I'm gonna enjoy this a lot! (starts swinging his staff at the two Rangers)

*The Mad Cackler then begins fighting with David and Linda while Gerald and Harold were still holding onto Termi-Gator and Slammerhead. They eventually head outside, and the two monsters throw Gerald and Harold to the ground, leaving them dizzy from trying to hold onto them.*

Gerald: (dizzy) Stop the monsters! I wanna get off!

Harold: (just as dizzy) Me too!

*With Gerald and Harold off their backs, Termi-Gator and Slammerhead joined the Mad Cackler as he was battling with David and Linda. Termi-Gator was fighting with David, and he launched his robotic crocodile hand, which was converted into a bear trap, at him. David quickly uses his Sketch Blade to block the strike, but the jaws of the hand attach to the blade, causing him to move towards Termi-Gator as he yanked it towards him. Linda was quickly dodging the strikes from Slammerhead's hammer head, and he pulls out his nail gun, and fires some nails at her. Linda predicted that he would do so, and used her Sketch Fans to deflect the shots coming at her.*

Slammerhead: Whoa! How'd you do that?

Linda: Many months of practice, my finny friend. Now, let's see what the cards say. (pulls out some tarot cards) It looks like your future's looking bleak. (fires the cards at Slammerhead)

*The cards hit Slammerhead, and he goes flying. David and Termi-Gator were still fighting with each other, and David was able to get his Sketch Blade free, and continues to slash away at him. David throws a jumping side kick at Termi-Gator, causing him to collapse to the ground.*

Termi-Gator: (getting back up) Ugh. I can see why Lord Darkanos had such a tough time trying to destroy you and your friends!

David: Yeah! We're pretty much like cockroaches!

Termi-Gator: But, I'm sure you can't be tough enough to dodge THIS! (fires a blast from his wrist mounted blasters, hitting David)

*David goes flying, and lands on the front lawn of his house. Linda rushes to his side, and decides that it's time to use the Astro Gold Armor.*

Linda: (helping David up) You okay, David?

David: I'm fine, Linda. Thanks.

Linda: You think it's time we brought out the Astro Gold Armor?

David: Y'know what? I couldn't agree more.

Slammerhead: Nice shot, Termi-Gator. Now, let's thrash those Rangers!

Termi-Gator: Ya! Let's!

David + Linda: Astro Gold! Turn On! (pushing down on their Comic Turners, making their Astro Gold Armor appear)

Termi-Gator: (looking at the armor) Nice armor, kiddos! But, it still won't help you out!

David: We'll see about THAT! Let's go, Linda!

*Then, David and Linda start using their laser spears to fight with Termi-Gator and Slammerhead. Slammerhead tries to slam at Linda with his hammer head, but the armor protects her from it, and she thrusts her spear at him. Termi-Gator chomps his jaws at David, who blocks them with his spear, but he was able shove back at him, and thrust his spear at him. David and Linda then fire their lasers at them, causing them to go flying backwards, and land on the street.*

David: Ah, yeah! That's what I'm talking about!

Linda: Exactly! We still haven't lost our touch! (high fives David)

Mad Cackler: Ah, but you still have to content with me, as well! (strikes his staff at the two Rangers)

*David and Linda started fighting with the Mad Cackler, clashing their spears with his staff. But, then, the Mad Cackler disappears, and reappears behind them, launching a blast of energy at their backs. Then, he appeared above them, and dropped energy spikes down at them, causing them to run around frantically trying to dodge them.*

Mad Cackler: Like my little parlor tricks, Rangers?

David: (astonished) What the? How'd you do that?

Mad Cackler: Why, I'm EXTREMELY unpredictable. Even unpredictable enough for your fortune teller friend.

Linda: I resent tha-- (gets cut off by an incoming fist coming out of a portal behind her) What the? How'd I not see THAT coming?

Mad Cackler: You see? I'm so unpredictable, even YOU can't predict my next move! (makes some energy arrows appear from under her, which she didn't see coming)

David: (getting angry at him) Stop it! Leave her alone! (strikes his spear at the Mad Cackler)

*Then, David and the Mad Cackler continue to fight with each other. David tries to thrust his spear at him, but he creates an energy shield to block the strikes. He even tries to fire some lasers at him, but he sucks them up, and fires them right back at him.*

Mad Cackler: (laughing at his efforts) Hahahahahaha!!! Such bravery from you, kid! It'll be your downfall soon enough.

David: Brave enough to beat you, Bozo! (continues fighting with him)

*As they continue to fight, Stanley and Eliza look on as they helped Gerald and Harold up.*

Stanley: You boys alright?

Gerald: I'll let ya know when I see the x-rays. X_X

Eliza: (feeling more disappointment) I knew that this isn't the kind of tomfoolery our son should be partaking in! Besides, it's EXTREMELY dangerous, and I won't allow this!!!

Stanley: (trying to get her to see reason) But, honey...

Eliza: Don't "but honey" me, Stanley. Once David is done, tell him to hand over his Comic Turner!

Stanley: (looking on concerned)

*As David and the Mad Cackler continued to fight, Linda runs back to try and help him, only to get cut off by Termi-Gator and Slammerhead. Thankfully, she predicted this, and was able to use her spear to knock them over. However, she never predicted that the Mad Cackler had created a portal that she fell into, and came out de-morphed and bound in smoke-like binds so she can't escape.*

David: (seeing what happened) Oh, no! Linda!

*Before David could do anything, the Mad Cackler whacks him with his staff, and fires a beam of black lightning from his fingertips, sending him flying backwards. As he lands on the street, he de-morphs, and sees his parents and Gerald and Harold running to his aide.*

Stanley: David, are you alright?

David: I think so, Dad.

Termi-Gator: (picking Linda up with Slammerhead) Ha ha! We sure showed her, Slammerhead!

Slammerhead: We sure did. ^^

Mad Cackler: (cackles evilly) That was just a taste of what I can do, young Chippendale. After I destroy your little friends, I and the entire Club of Monsters will come for you! Try and rescue them if you dare! They'll be destroyed by the time you get to them! (shows him the bound Linda) Oh, and don't worry about your friend! We'll take good care of her! (cackles maniacally)

Linda: No!!! It can't be!

*As David ran over to try and save Linda, the Mad Cackler, Termi-Gator, and Slammerhead disappear back to their hideout taking Linda with them. David couldn't believe his eyes.*

Gerald: A Club of Monsters? Like the clubs at school?

David: Yeah, but only MUCH worse! I gotta go and save the other Rangers!

Eliza: (stopping her son) Not so fast, young man! Your days of living the life of a comic book superhero are over! Fork over your Comic Turner, pronto!

David: But, Mom, this monster has my friends captive! I can't just let him kill them!

Eliza: Well, they never would've been in this situation if THEY never got involved in my husband's insane comic book fantasies!

David: (not believing what his mother said) Are you saying that they brought this upon themselves?

Eliza: Exactly! Now, fork it over! Now! (holds out her hand)

*David looks on at his concerned father, then at an equally concerned Gerald and Harold, and back at his angered mother. He's now at a cross-road as to what to do: give up his life as a Comicger to live with his mother, and leave his friends to die at the hands of the Club of Monsters, or defy his own mother, and go out to rescue his friends. Find out the chilling answer in "Justice Squadron: Comicger Returns" Part 2. Stay tuned.*
