Judge Anderson - Parallel Lines - R.A. Wonsowski

(Inspired by, and dedicated to, Ben Rosenthal - Your last week's script is to blame for this...)

Set-up:  X-Force members DEADPOOL, PSYLOCKE and WOLVERINE, in their black and white costumes, are separated from their team and shunted into the future, only to find themselves in Mega-City One!  Psylocke's mental abilities alert Psi-Ops, and the three are captured by JUDGE ANDERSON of Psi-Division!

Panel 1 - Background:   DEADPOOL, PSYLOCKE and WOLVERINE are sitting on the sidewalk, backs against a wall, hands behind their backs because they're cuffed.  Foreground:  JUDGE ANDERSON is leaning against her motorcycle, helmet off, talking on her radio.

VOICE ON RADIO:  They don't match any of the genome records, Judge.

ANDERSON:  No ID's either.  I'll see what I can glean psi-wise.

Panel 2 - JUDGE ANDERSON sits on her haunches in front of DEADPOOL, the two of them staring into each other's eyes.

NO COPY

Panel 3 - Same as panel 2

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  Call Me! - Whoa, call me - call me any day or night...

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  One Way - Or Another - I'm gonna find ya...

Panel 4 - Same as above

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  ...I'm gonna getchagetchagetchagetcha one way...

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  ...Tide is High but I'm holdin' on...

Panel 5 - Same as above

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  ...I'm gonna be you're number one...

DEADPOOL (thought balloon, with musical notes):  ...nu-u-umber one...

Panel 6 - JUDGE ANDERSON is back on her feet, looking at PSYLOCKE and WOLVERINE.  She's back on her radio.  PSYLOCKE's face is hard, but WOLVERINE has his head cocked with a "I-know-her-from-somewhere" look on his face.

JUDGE ANDERSON:  I'm getting nowhere with the strange singing in the first one's head.  I'm going to try the other two...

PSYLOCKE (thought balloon):  (image of a brick wall)

WOLVERINE (thought balloon, with musical notes):  ...nu-u-umber one...


(Oh, c'mon, you can't tell me no one else has noticed:
...really?)

  2. HA! Brilliant. Loved it!

    As an aside, apologies for all for not leaving comments much but time slips away from me from week to week. Rest assured I DO read everyone's scripts. You're all the future of comics!

  3. I thought it was a very funny page, and I'm not even that big a Deadpool fan.

    Like Ben, I've also been lax in comments lately due to real life shenanigans, but I too read and rate every page.
