If you haven't by now heard, there is a new superhero in town named Exquisite.  She has the prerequisites of every super hero goddess out there.  She's strong.  She's fast.  She's got a great moral code.  She's gorgeous.  She's tough as nails.  She's everything every little girl should aspire to be.  But most importantly, she's my wife.  We met when she was just starting out.  Petty crimes here and there, armed robbery, burglary, assault; the basic wave of vigilante heroism it takes to get noticed.  But it wasn't until I got kidnapped by Colonel Petro Popoyowich, a Russian Ultranationalist who wanted to use my award winning knowledge in bio-c

It's three in the morning. The phone rings. Not completely awake you answer the phone. Something whispers through the receiver fast and you're not sure what you heard. So you ask them to repeat themselves but the line goes dead and the constant drone of the dial tone gives you cause to hang up. And you sit there, worried, puzzling, wondering what they said. Did you hear correctly? Are you dreaming?
