(4 Panels)
Panel 1: A convention hall filled with a large number
of characters from across the comic multiverse that have jewelry – rings
specifically – as an important part of their costume/power set. Undoubtedly a
large portion of these characters will be from the various lantern corps and
the Legion of Superheroes.
In the foreground
stand BOOSTER GOLD and SKEETS, THE PHANTOM, and CRUSADER.
CRUSADER: Booster Gold, was it?
BOOSTER GOLD (1): That would be me. The brains behind this
little get together.
BOOSTER GOLD (2): And I’d say it’s worked better than I
could have hoped!
SKEETS: Brilliantly, sir.
CRUSADER: Yeah, that said…
Panel 2: The three look over their shoulders to the
background, where LARFLEEZE is using an assortment of constructs – including
GLOMULOUS - to chase THE MANDARIN.
LARFLEEZE (1): You have ten rings?! I want ten rings!
GIMMIE!
LARFLEEZE (2): GIMMIE! GIMMIE! GIMMIE!
GLOMULOUS: Rawr!
Panel 3: The three continue to watch as the scene
inverts, this time with THE MANDARIN chasing LARFLEEZE as he fires an array of
attacks from his assorted rings.
THE MANDARIN: Back! Back you barbarian!
THE MANDARIN: I will not be assaulted like this!
LARFLEEZE: Ow! Ow! Ow!
Panel 4: CRUSADER and PHANTOM look at BOOSTER GOLD.
BOOSTER GOLD looks over his shoulder, worried, at LARFLEEZE and THE MANDARIN as
they continue to fight off-panel.
LARFLEEZE: (Off-Panel)
No one gets more rings than Larfleeze!
THE MANDARIN: (Off-panel)
Fool! No one crosses the Mandarin and survives!
CRUSADER: Perhaps you should have put some more thought into
the details first.

Cute and funny concept that you pace really well. I was hoping someone would explore all the super powered accessories in comics and you did an excellent job sir.
ReplyDeleteReally fun idea. I don't know half of the characters mentioned, but I could see this happening in an episode of Brave and the Bold (copyright issues ignored)
ReplyDeleteThe visual of Larfleeze and Mandarin chasing each other makes this page a solid win.
