The CW shows (in my opinion) have tendency to drop precipitously in quality after the first couple seasons. I'm not the least bit interested. I do encourage folks to enjoy things regardless of what other folks think.
@ficopedia: i'm almost to the point of prose. The script style helps me sort of focus on the need to be descriptive. I found that in the past I would (consciously or unconsciously) leave out certain details that helped make the stories be more coherent. I knew it was you anyway CB haha. Your mom was an english teacher iirc
Police lights illumintae the desolate strip of buildings making up what's known as the Ghost District of Silver City. A pair of homicide detectives stand over a corpse that's been covered by a white sheet. One crouches down and lifts the sheet to get a look underneath. The person beneath is Citizen Quick, the city's resident speedster. He sighs deeply as he places back on top of the body.
Det 1: Jesus Christ. Who called it in?
Det 2: No idea yet. The caller was anonymous.
Det 1: Probably the person who did it.
Det 2: Agreed. We have a team working on tracing the call. In the meantime we need to keep the media as far away from this as possible.
Det 1: Has the Justice Brigade been contacted?
DM: We've been made aware of the situation.
The detectives turn around to see the preeminant hero of the city, Danger Man.
Det 2: Danger Man, the entire Silver City Police Department offers its condolences. Quick was a good man.
DM: A video was sent to our HQ a few minutes ago. Someone referring to themselves as the Kennel of Crime is claiming responsibility for tonight.
Det 1: We'll need to view it as soon as possible.
DM: Understood. I'll have Lightning Lady deliver a copy to you. In the meantime, I must make arrangements.
Danger Man looks at his fallen comrade before flying off into the night. Several blocks away he lands atop a roof. Tears stream down his face as he removes his mask, mourning his friend and mentor.
One week later
Billboards and memorials have been erected in honor of Citizen Quick, his smiling face on a remind of his valiant service to its citizenry. Of course, the local criminal element felt no such reverence for the hero. Reports of gunfire down at the city's largest bank alerts the police.
WHOOSH!!!
In a flash, Danger Man and Lightning Lady swoop down besides a police cruiser.
Officer: We have multiple gunmen. They've taken the bank tellers as hostages.
DM: Ok. We'll take it from here.
Lightning Lady transforms into her electrical form and enters the bank through the phone lines. Before the goons can react, she zaps each of them with enough voltage to render them unconscious.
LL: Hostiles are neutralized. Come get the hostages out DM.
Danger Man quickly enters through the barricaded doors and begins escorting the hostages out.
LL: They're wearing dog masks. Guess this is the Kennel of Crime's handiwork?
DM: Must be. God I hate dogs.
LL:You know, that dog bit you when you were 8 years old. Isn't it time to let that go?
DM: No. That's exactly why I don't have a dog. Never will. Ugh.
The sound of a walkie talkie crackles as voice emanates from one of the criminals vests.
This is just the beginning of my crime wave Danger Man. I will bring this city to its knees. Call me Dr. Doggo.
An uneasy feeling washes over the two costumed heroes. In a lair far underground the villainous Dr. Doggo plots his next dastardly deed.
DD: Soon Danger Man, I will have your head on a platter.
