Anti-Fellowship Al
in
Issue #1
Al’s First Love!
(In celebration of the up and coming DC Origins)
Last episode, Anti-Fellowship Al (as he has been known as from now on), had caused a scene in the local comic shop among his peers, which ironically, has gained acceptance due to his charming personality.
Today, he looks forward to the up and coming Heroclix DC Origins tournament event. For this special event, he puts on a mixture of cologne, aftershave, and Axe Boy spray. He then puts on a T-shirt , tie and his lesser holy blue jeans, and heads off towards the mall. As AL (formerly known as Thanos from the previous issue of Anti-Fellowship AL), enters the mall, all the ladies look at him, nostrils flared, and eyes watering from the fragrance he’s emitting, he sees them, and he smiles a little, a little smug, a little confident, probably thinking he already probably has this event in the bag.
He approaches the venue’s entrance, approaches the counter in a way a bar room client approaches the bar, and says, “3 Hero Clix DC Origin packs please, Bob.â€
Bob says, “Sure, Al, comin’ right up.†And Bob serves him his Clix as if he were a bartender. (A comic book store with a bar ambiance, I like that!).
Bob says, “So, Al, gonna create another scene for us today?â€
Al kinda chuckles and just shrugs his shoulders while he intently tries to translate the languages on the sides of the booster packs, he doesn’t know what they say, but he makes the customers and the bartender….er…comicbook shop owner laugh. Al says, “Oh, sorry, was that aloud??â€
Al then goes to sit down near his co-players at his table, some newbs, and some are veteran players. Al has a routine before opening booster packs, he sets them up in alphabetical order, left to right I a straight line. He then proceeds to tap the top of each box for good luck 4 times in a row, and finally he clears his sinuses….then he says, “Oh, I’m sorry was that aloud?†And his co-players just sit and stare at him momentarily, then the newbs that sit closest to Al, get up and move to the other side of the room, while the veterans players just laugh.
Okay….now the opening of his boxes. He opens them up , one by one, he’s thinking to himself, “Please, please, please let me pull a Zombie!†Then he hesitates in thought, “Wait, this is DC, right? Man, I’m such a newb!, lol!â€
He finally gets to the last pack, and finally the LAST game piece he sees it….or …….HER! It’s Supergirl!! He mind flashes back to the Helen Slater movie “Supergirl†and thoughts of this siren flying around in the air, his fantasies, during his childhood, would be hopefully, one day, that she would come to him, pick him up and carry him to her Fortress of Solitude! At the time he thought, “Gee, I hope her brother approves of me!â€
“GAME TIME!†says the game venue coordinator and Al snaps out of it. Al gets his force set up and gets movin’. For a little while, Al is doing okay, doing damage, on his opponent…kind of like a see-saw type of game. Then he hears the sound of a female’s voice, “You smell real nice!â€
Startled, Al looks around him, he thinks, “Hm, there’s no girls in the store, that’s not unusual, maybe my mind is playing tricks on me like it always does.†Al goes back to playing, rolls the dice, decides to do a “push†with his Supergirl figure, and then picks her up to take a click of damage. As he does this, he hears, “Oooooh, I love your hands, they feel so manly!†He notices the sound is coming from the SUPERGIRL GAME PIECE!
He goes, “Well, today I took special care to take the calluses off my thumbs with my pumice stone†And Supergirl says, “Yes, the feel nice, could you hold me a little longer?â€
And Al says, “Sure, you know, I have been waiting for you all my life.†And Supergirl says, “Really? Why is that?â€
Al proceeds to say, “Well, it’s just been a dream of mine, the image of you carrying me in the sky in your arms to your Fortress of Solitude.â€
Supergirl says, “That’s sweet, wanna catch Ghostrider after the game?†Al says, “Sure, think you could help me roll a few criticals, and then we can split?†Supergirl winks at him and goes, “Sure!â€
Al’s opponent, a newb, says to Al, “Hey, could we hurry it up over there?†Al strikes a vicious stare at him, and says “Shut up, newb!†And knocks all his pieces all over the place. His co-players point at Al and go “Anti-Fellowship!†and laugh.
Al was pretty anxious to leave anyways, because, as far as he was concerned he GOT his prize!
Al and supergirl (the clix supergirl, in case you got lost track), head to the movies, then later head back to his place, they both arrive at his doorstep, and he is holding Supergirl in his hand, and he gazes into her eyes, and says, “This is me†and she says, “Ah, YOUR Fortress of Solitude!â€
They both laugh, and then go silent, he gazes into her eyes, she gazes into his, and they lean into each other, and they kiss, pedestrians on the sidewalk look at him as they wonder why this man is kissing a toy doll.
One passer-by says to his buddy, “Man, and I thought my dating life stunk.â€
Al says, “Well, would like to come in?†Supergirl says, “I’d love to.†Al puts Supergirl into his pocket, walks up the steps to his door, and enters the house.
The End
Stay tuned for our next Episode
The Death of Supergirl!
