So. let's talk about the American Nightmares. Boolah and I have actually been talking about working together for awhile. The original plan was for Boolah to do a back story or two, and eventually he would get his own team book to work with called The American Nightmares. I used Pulp Horrorshow vol. 3 #3-4 to set the stage for the American Nightmares, but somewhere along the line the whole concept got lost. This is not unusual in my constantly shifting comic book universe, as ideas and concepts are in constant flux, and only the strongest ideas often survive. Anyway, after Bad Rapture wraps up, the plan is to move Boolah onto "SDF" full time. Since we weren't gonna end up using the American Nightmares, we thought it would be neat to work them into Bad Rapture, so we did.
Here's a run-down on our little group:
Secret Soldier: First Appearance- SDF: Drifter's Rhapsody. An original member of the classic superhero team, The World Hero League, Secret Soldier is now a mysterious, four armed cyborg. A genius fighter, he is responsible for training both Cactus Joe and most of the members of the old World Hero League how to fight.
King Dark: First Appearance- Pulp Horrorshow v. 1 #4. An original member of the World Hero League, King Dark is living, liquid Darkness. A superhuman fighter, King Dark also possesses super speed.
Termite and Alea: First Appearance- Pulp Horrorshow v. 3 #3/4. A pair of carapace covered insectoids, Termite and Alea's souls are linked through an ectoplasmic exchange.
Arrowhead II: First Appearance- SDF #1. An Ant Woman and apprentice to Arrowhead I, who was an original member of the World Hero League before Ortex took his eyes and his legs. Arrowhead II has been trained to master the bow and arrow, and can create arrows from her own carapace.
So there you go.
