1. 'What did they do
to Particle Man?'
Copy !req
2. Why are his powers
all different?
Copy !req
3. You missed the last issue,
when he flew into the nebula
Copy !req
4. it erased his old powers
and gave him new ones.
Copy !req
5. Word? I wonder if bang babies
could ever change like that
Copy !req
6. V, that stuff only
happens in comic books
Copy !req
7. not in real life.
Copy !req
8. Well, well, Virgil Hawkins
and Richie Foley.
Copy !req
9. Aah!
Copy !req
10. Madelyn Spaulding?
Copy !req
11. What are you doing, uh..
Copy !req
12. Out of the hospital?
Copy !req
13. They say I'm okay now
Copy !req
14. but the school
still won't take me back.
Copy !req
15. Well, you know,
you did try to take over
Copy !req
16. the entire student body.
Copy !req
17. Yeah.
Copy !req
18. Hello,
my name is Madelyn Spaulding
Copy !req
19. and you will vote
for me for class president.
Copy !req
20. Hello?
Copy !req
21. Yes.
Copy !req
22. No, really,
you are too kind.
Copy !req
23. Thank you. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
24. Virgil, you will do
as I command.
Copy !req
25. No, I won't.
Copy !req
26. Aah!
Copy !req
27. Well, everybody had
been so mean to me
Copy !req
28. and then I got those
amazing powers.
Copy !req
29. What did you expect?
Copy !req
30. Do you still have your powers?
Copy !req
31. Who knows?
Copy !req
32. If I do, I can't remember
Copy !req
33. how I made them work.
Copy !req
34. Is there anything
you do remember?
Copy !req
35. Yeah. I remember Static.
Copy !req
36. He's the one who
spoiled everything.
Copy !req
37. I owe him big time.
Copy !req
38. Um, okay.
Copy !req
39. But what about me?
Copy !req
40. What about you?
Copy !req
41. Never mind. Come on, Rich.
Copy !req
42. Gotta jet.
Copy !req
43. She doesn't remember
you're Static.
Copy !req
44. Oh! How lucky is that.
Copy !req
45. Just like before.
Copy !req
46. Kids laughing at me.
Copy !req
47. I hate them all
Copy !req
48. and I'd do something
about it, too
Copy !req
49. if I had my old powers back.
Copy !req
50. Of course, new powers
wouldn't hurt either.
Copy !req
51. Yo, Hotstreak, knock it off.
Copy !req
52. You're making us nervous.
Copy !req
53. Too bad. It helps me relax.
Copy !req
54. boom
Copy !req
55. Hey, I didn't do that.
Copy !req
56. Mind if drop in?
Copy !req
57. Why'd these guys have to escape
Copy !req
58. on a school night?
Copy !req
59. I have a book report
due tomorrow.
Copy !req
60. There they.. Uhh.
Copy !req
61. Gear!
Copy !req
62. Uhh!
Copy !req
63. Heh! I did not give that
thing a return address.
Copy !req
64. One down.
Copy !req
65. One to go.
Copy !req
66. Uhh!
Copy !req
67. She-Bang?
Copy !req
68. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
69. Uh, saving your behind.
Copy !req
70. She who?
Copy !req
71. She's an old friend.
Copy !req
72. Uhh!
Copy !req
73. Hello, stranger.
Copy !req
74. Hey, Gear.
Copy !req
75. Um, can we hold
the class reunion
Copy !req
76. some other time?
Copy !req
77. Do I have to do
everything myself?
Copy !req
78. Madelyn?
Copy !req
79. - Again?
- Who?
Copy !req
80. Uhh! Ahh!
Copy !req
81. When did she learn to do that?
Copy !req
82. Uhh!
Copy !req
83. Whoa. What if it's
just like Particle Man?
Copy !req
84. When you zapped her brain
the last time you fought
Copy !req
85. maybe it somehow
changed her powers.
Copy !req
86. Incoming.
Copy !req
87. crash
Copy !req
88. I thought you said that
couldn't happen in real life.
Copy !req
89. If you two don't pay attention
Copy !req
90. real life is gonna
be over real soon.
Copy !req
91. You better work on your aim
some other time, girl.
Copy !req
92. We don't need
the cops on us, too.
Copy !req
93. Uhh!
Copy !req
94. Move!
Copy !req
95. They're gone.
Copy !req
96. So I guess you're
gonna split now, huh?
Copy !req
97. Yeah. Last time
you were a little shy
Copy !req
98. of the spotlight.
Copy !req
99. Hey, that was the old me.
Copy !req
100. Who are you?
Copy !req
101. My name's She-Bang.
Copy !req
102. Be sure to spell it right.
Copy !req
103. S-H-E-Bang.
Copy !req
104. My card.
Sure to be a collectible.
Copy !req
105. - Her card?
- Her card?
Copy !req
106. So what happened here, She-Bang?
Copy !req
107. There was
a metahuman jailbreak.
Copy !req
108. Things got a bit heavy
for Static and Gear
Copy !req
109. so I helped them out.
Copy !req
110. So does that mean
that the Dakota duo
Copy !req
111. is now a trio?
Copy !req
112. Absolutely.
Copy !req
113. Whoa! Time.
Copy !req
114. Team meeting.
Copy !req
115. Well, you did promise
Copy !req
116. we could work together
Copy !req
117. if I came back to town.
Copy !req
118. - I did?
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
119. - I did?
- You did.
Copy !req
120. So why are
you back in town?
Copy !req
121. The authorities
captured all the goons
Copy !req
122. who were after me for my DNA.
Copy !req
123. Finally, my parents and I
Copy !req
124. could leave the witness
protection program
Copy !req
125. and move back to Dakota.
Copy !req
126. Way to go.
Copy !req
127. And the best part is
Copy !req
128. I don't have to
pretend I'm shy anymore.
Copy !req
129. I can be myself.
Copy !req
130. There's a scary thought.
Copy !req
131. This'll be so great.
Copy !req
132. I have so many decorating
ideas for the gas station
Copy !req
133. and we should
color-coordinate our costumes.
Copy !req
134. Oh! And I even thought
of a team name.
Copy !req
135. SGS.
Copy !req
136. 'She-Bang, Gear, Static.'
Copy !req
137. I did?
Copy !req
138. This is a hideout?
Copy !req
139. Honestly, you'll have
to do a lot better
Copy !req
140. if you're going to work for me.
Copy !req
141. What?
Copy !req
142. Who said anything about..
Copy !req
143. So what exactly do we gain
Copy !req
144. by following you?
Copy !req
145. We'll be one big, happy family
Copy !req
146. and with me in your team
Copy !req
147. you'll be winners
Copy !req
148. instead of losers.
Copy !req
149. Trust me.
I have a lot of ideas.
Copy !req
150. You've got a lot of mouth.
Copy !req
151. Yeah? Well, I can
back up what I say.
Copy !req
152. And I'm saying
if you stick with me
Copy !req
153. you'll finally see
the end of Static
Copy !req
154. once and for all.
Copy !req
155. crash
Copy !req
156. Any questions?
Copy !req
157. Ugh, bad enough She-Bang
keeps butting in
Copy !req
158. when we're on patrol but Shenice
Copy !req
159. won't let us alone either.
Copy !req
160. You're telling me.
Copy !req
161. She was so busy describing
Copy !req
162. the new curtains
for the gas station
Copy !req
163. she followed me right
into the boys' rest room.
Copy !req
164. She thought that could
use new curtains, too.
Copy !req
165. Hey, guys.
Copy !req
166. We're trying to decide on
a theme for this year's dance.
Copy !req
167. What do you think?
Copy !req
168. It's homecoming, Shenice.
Copy !req
169. Not Mardi Gras.
Copy !req
170. Well, it could be.
Copy !req
171. Hey, is that high enough?
Copy !req
172. - Yes.
- Yes.
Copy !req
173. I see where Shenice's circle
of influence is widening.
Copy !req
174. - What is it?
- Picking up a police bulletin.
Copy !req
175. Metahumans at City Hall.
Copy !req
176. We gotta get down there.
Copy !req
177. Down where?
Copy !req
178. Down to
the nurse's office.
Copy !req
179. Yes! We, uh, ooh
Copy !req
180. ate in the cafeteria.
Copy !req
181. Uhh. Now we know why
Copy !req
182. they call it tuna surprise.
Copy !req
183. Aah!
Copy !req
184. Ah!
Copy !req
185. This is totally whack.
Copy !req
186. What is your problem, man?
Copy !req
187. If we're gonna do
something, let's do it.
Copy !req
188. - Not just put on a show.
- But Madelyn says we have to.
Copy !req
189. I don't take orders
from little girls.
Copy !req
190. Uh, team,
can we just stick to the plan?
Copy !req
191. I make the plans around here.
Copy !req
192. 'They're here.'
Copy !req
193. Listen up, girlfriend.
Copy !req
194. If you're all that
Copy !req
195. let's see what you can do
Copy !req
196. without my help.
Copy !req
197. Just watch me.
Copy !req
198. - Uh.
- Must be Madelyn.
Copy !req
199. - Uhh!
- Uhh!
Copy !req
200. And what was your first clue?
Copy !req
201. 'Hey, the gas lines.'
Copy !req
202. Uh.
Copy !req
203. Yippee-ay-oh.
Copy !req
204. Hey.
Copy !req
205. Aah.
Copy !req
206. Now don't go away angry.
Copy !req
207. Aah.
Copy !req
208. 'She-Bang?'
Copy !req
209. Huh? Aah!
Copy !req
210. Uh-oh.
Copy !req
211. Why'd you butt in like that?
Copy !req
212. I had Talon
just where I wanted her.
Copy !req
213. You weren't even
ruffling her feathers.
Copy !req
214. I wa..
T-that's just plain nuts.
Copy !req
215. No. Leaving me back at school.
Copy !req
216. That's nuts.
Copy !req
217. We're supposed to be a team.
Copy !req
218. Nice try, prom queen.
Copy !req
219. Now are you ready
to let me run this circus?
Copy !req
220. Quiet.
Copy !req
221. I-I need time to think.
Copy !req
222. You know,
if I didn't know better
Copy !req
223. I'd think you two
are avoiding... me.
Copy !req
224. thud
Copy !req
225. - Anybody hurt?
- Nope.
Copy !req
226. We did it.
Copy !req
227. Eh! Wrong. He did it.
Copy !req
228. This isn't working.
Copy !req
229. What isn't working?
Copy !req
230. This team thing.
Copy !req
231. It's not you. It's us.
Copy !req
232. What? Why?
Copy !req
233. We're kind of feeling
like we need a little space.
Copy !req
234. Maybe a whole lot of space
Copy !req
235. like a galaxy even.
Copy !req
236. But I-I just want to help.
Copy !req
237. The best way you
can help, She-Bang?
Copy !req
238. Back off, okay?
Copy !req
239. Remember, you, us.
Copy !req
240. And in between?
Copy !req
241. Light years.
Copy !req
242. 'But I thought
you wanted me there.'
Copy !req
243. You said you liked my ideas.
Copy !req
244. Yeah. Sure, Shenice.
Copy !req
245. It's just that we sort
of decided on the theme
Copy !req
246. and the Decorating
Committee's kind of full
Copy !req
247. so we don't really
need anyone right now.
Copy !req
248. Yeah. I understand.
Copy !req
249. Whatever.
Copy !req
250. Weren't you supposed
to go out with your friends?
Copy !req
251. What friends?
Copy !req
252. They only liked me
when I pretended to be a dud.
Copy !req
253. They're used
to the old Shenice, honey.
Copy !req
254. You have to give them time
to adjust to the new one.
Copy !req
255. She's really quite
wonderful, you know.
Copy !req
256. She doesn't feel so wonderful.
Copy !req
257. Just give them some time.
Copy !req
258. I'm sure you'll be able
to change their minds.
Copy !req
259. Ha! The only thing I'm gonna
change is my clothes.
Copy !req
260. So Static and Gear
don't want to play with me.
Copy !req
261. Fine. I'll go solo.
Copy !req
262. And I'm gonna be one
hard act to follow.
Copy !req
263. 'I don't think so.'
Copy !req
264. Hey! Uhh!
Copy !req
265. The only act
you'll be a part of
Copy !req
266. is the final one
of Static's life.
Copy !req
267. Shenice's mom call you, too?
Copy !req
268. Yeah. I think she called
everybody in our school.
Copy !req
269. Shenice has been
missing for hours.
Copy !req
270. You don't think
She-Bang would take on Madelyn
Copy !req
271. and the metabreed
by herself, do you?
Copy !req
272. Either that or join them
Copy !req
273. just to get back at us.
Copy !req
274. We got to find her.
Copy !req
275. So what makes you think
Copy !req
276. this new scheme of
yours is gonna work
Copy !req
277. 'any better than the last one?'
Copy !req
278. We have Static's
precious partner.
Copy !req
279. He's bound to surrender.
Copy !req
280. Don't count on it, creep.
Copy !req
281. Static and Gear
broke off with me.
Copy !req
282. I'm on my own now.
Copy !req
283. See that?
Copy !req
284. Another whack plan.
Copy !req
285. Now what are you gonna do?
Copy !req
286. Give me some space, okay?
Copy !req
287. Seems to me
you got plenty of that
Copy !req
288. between your ears.
Copy !req
289. Hey, stop.
Copy !req
290. We'll get nowhere like this.
Copy !req
291. We're nowhere already.
Copy !req
292. Listen, team, this will work.
Copy !req
293. It's just a matter
of where to place the bait.
Copy !req
294. What's their problem?
Copy !req
295. They both think
they're in charge.
Copy !req
296. 'This is them being
nice to each other.'
Copy !req
297. No use.
Copy !req
298. Those things are made out
Copy !req
299. of the strongest steel around.
Copy !req
300. No stronger than
the leash you're on.
Copy !req
301. I'd watch that mouth.
Copy !req
302. Save it, okay?
Copy !req
303. Back when you
led the metabreed
Copy !req
304. I might have been afraid.
Copy !req
305. 'But now you're
just some sidekick'
Copy !req
306. 'who got shoved aside'
Copy !req
307. you're a joke
to every Bang Baby in Dakota
Copy !req
308. and an even bigger joke to me.
Copy !req
309. Hey! Stop talking to her.
Copy !req
310. School's out, schoolgirl.
Copy !req
311. I'm running this show
Copy !req
312. from now on.
Copy !req
313. Ah!
Copy !req
314. Why does there always
have to be a class clown?
Copy !req
315. Uhh! Uhh!
Copy !req
316. That's it.
You're going down, girl.
Copy !req
317. Ugh!
Copy !req
318. No-o-o!
Copy !req
319. I got backpack scanning
for any pressure changes
Copy !req
320. temperature spikes
Copy !req
321. high frequency sounds.
Copy !req
322. Or we could just use our eyes.
Copy !req
323. Yes, but that
would be too easy.
Copy !req
324. Come on, Madelyn.
Copy !req
325. Come on, Ebon.
Copy !req
326. Oh..
Copy !req
327. You owe me five bucks.
Copy !req
328. Does anyone else
have a comment?
Copy !req
329. 'Actually, yes.'
Copy !req
330. Thanks for taking out Ebon.
Copy !req
331. Saves us a lot of trouble.
Copy !req
332. Ah.
Copy !req
333. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
334. Looking for you.
Copy !req
335. It just isn't a party
without you.
Copy !req
336. Static's mine.
Copy !req
337. You handle the other two.
Copy !req
338. Ow! That hurts.
Copy !req
339. Uhh.
Copy !req
340. Alley-oop!
Copy !req
341. Uhh.
Copy !req
342. Uhh! Uhh!
Copy !req
343. Tight fit?
Copy !req
344. Hyah!
Copy !req
345. Okay, backpack, go.
Copy !req
346. Gotcha, poindexter.
Copy !req
347. That's Mr. Poindexter to you.
Copy !req
348. Anytime, backpack!
Copy !req
349. Ah!
Copy !req
350. Weather's about to change.
Copy !req
351. If I were you,
I'd start worrying
Copy !req
352. about the windchill factor.
Copy !req
353. 'No way you can stop me now,
you creep.'
Copy !req
354. I'm a force of nature!
Copy !req
355. Is that a fact?
Copy !req
356. Go ahead.
Copy !req
357. I can throw back anything
Copy !req
358. you send my way, but harder.
Copy !req
359. Aah!
Copy !req
360. What did you..
Copy !req
361. I gave the junk
a positive charge.
Copy !req
362. And that attracted the negative
charge in that lightning
Copy !req
363. But I'm sure you knew that
Copy !req
364. oh, force of nature.
Copy !req
365. You know, that girl
Copy !req
366. was just too pushy.
Copy !req
367. Hey, I ain't touching that one.
Copy !req
368. I guess I owe you an apology.
Copy !req
369. - Well, I mean, kinda, but..
- Yeah, you could.
Copy !req
370. - Nah, it's okay.
- It's alright.
Copy !req
371. So I've decided that
Copy !req
372. from now on
I won't horn in on your patrols
Copy !req
373. or bug you
at school or anything.
Copy !req
374. Sorry. We can't accept that.
Copy !req
375. Although I did like the part
Copy !req
376. about not bugging us at school.
Copy !req
377. Any time you want
to be on the team.
Copy !req
378. You're welcome.
Copy !req
379. But you said..
Copy !req
380. We said some stuff we regret.
Copy !req
381. You guys are the absolute..
Copy !req
382. - Uhh!
- Ribs.
Copy !req
383. Crushing the ribs.
Copy !req
384. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Copy !req
385. Sometimes I don't
know my own strength.
Copy !req
386. Well, we'll be
happy to remind you.
Copy !req
387. Hang on. I'm picking up
a police radio call.
Copy !req
388. There's a riot
at the Bogus Truth concert.
Copy !req
389. They must've played
something in tune.
Copy !req
390. Ha, ha! That could get ugly.
Copy !req
391. Should we go together?
Copy !req
392. Wouldn't have it any other way.
Copy !req
