After a mysterious shadowy figure was seen carving up Longbow in the shadow of Fort Cerberus, everyone is asking, "who is Void Razor?" Sources indicate that she has been seen many times coming and going from Fort Darwin, possibly taking orders from Kalinda. Even more ominously, the shadowy killer's appearance in the Rogue Isles seems to coincide with the disappearance of the former heroine

"The Unbeholden? What Unbeholden? Beasty Boy was their heart and soul, and he's gone solo. Mistress Terror or Terrorist or whatever she calls herself, the so-called leader, has gone into hiding. The rest are strictly small time. Trust me, the Unbeholden are just a bad memory. It's groups like the Angry Bees or the Technocratic Dominion that we need to be watching, not those has-beens."--

After a spectacular breakout and crime spree with Erith and the Killing Clown back in 2006, the mysterious assassin Sarana seemed to disappear. After years of apparent inactivity, however she seems to have reappeared. While conducting covert surveillance on "Slappy Jack" Pirelli in Port Oakes, an undercover Longbow agent snapped the following picture:"It was uncanny," the agent said, on condition

Press ReleaseWhile other heroes went about their oblivious trick-or-treating, Scrap Pile commander Citrus Shocker saw a danger and took action. It started with a message from some of the team's junior members (see previous article) and a ghostly ship floating through the streets of Talos Isle, where the brilliantly unconventional super-hero was posing as a shopper to lull criminals into a false

Readers may recall the disappearance last year of Interpol's junior commander and token magic hero, Ki Rin. An angry Circle of Thorns coven ambushed her on her way out of Pocket D and, in the ensuing battle, she was knocked through a freak space-time rift into a dark matter dimension from which it was believed she would never return. This weekend, however, she popped up in King's Row with new

What seemed to be a violent but mundane raid on a Council base went wild yesterday when a fallen fascist suddenly transformed into a werewolf and the two commandos fought back with previously unrevealed super-powers. Who are these low-key heroes? What's happening on Striga Isle?

Having cleared up the vast Outcast conspiracy to smear the team's image, members of the Scrap Pile set out to improve their public relations in other ways. Captain Scrappy, shown at right in Atlas Park, recruited two new, clean-cut science heroes. Golden Song and Speed Lightning have already made a name for themselves cleaning up the streets of King's Row.Citrus Shocker, meanwhile, established a

After the private citizens Dr. Olivia Chung, Petra Chalker, and Cat Hermes unfolded ties to current unfavorable media reports about the Scrap Pile with various members of the Outcasts criminal gangs, it did not take long for Captain Scrappy and Citrus Shocker to take the lead in the following investigations. The Scrap Pile, as you may remember, has been embroiled in scandals involving pictures

After a year of reporting about Wilder Cat's doings, we finally have a picture of the ellusive crime-fighter in action. The Golden Age Society could not be reached for comment.

Initial reports of a new criminal gang called "Trio" wreaking havoc on Paragon City's Longbow Reservists, have turned out to the work of one man, a true villain at that, the Beasty Boy. For unknown reasons the controversial figure has accepted a commission from the Fraternal Association of Beach Bums Lodges (FABBL, or simply "Fable") of the Rogue Islands to take up for the Infected beach-combing

Apparently, cozying up to Lord Recluse and Arbiter Sands wasn't enough for the Scrap Pile. Now team leader Citrus Shocker has been accused of serious dereliction of duty by some of her fellow guardians of Paragon City.Early in the evening of May 2nd, 2007, Citrus Shocker responded to a call for heroes to roust some Circle of Thorns cultists from a hidden temple in the Hollows.

Despite the fact that they were filmed dashing out of a burning building moments after it exploded, Laggy and Peryton, leaders of the new super-group known as the Poster Children, have been cleared of arson charges. "It was clearly a set-up," explains Captain Victor Broyko of the Atlas Park Arson and Mad Science Squad. "Liberace and a number of his fellow Vahzilok reapers were seen nearby,

A photograph recently released to the media by anonymous sources has called into question the loyalty of the technically-minded so-called hero team, Scrap Pile. The picture clearly shows team founder Captain Scrappy and up-and-comer Starbryte standing alongside Arbiter Sands of the Arachnos cult in an abandoned office building.When confronted, Captain Scrappy's response was, "How could I go bad

MYTHOS hero Samedi Sam while trying to run for ward council in King's Row, in Paragon City, dropped his street-wise Skull gang member look to don a shirt and tie outfit, though he kept the skull mask to hide his identity. In the course of the election, his support plummeted as pictures of him and his uber-gothic girlfriend Zombira, raking things up back in their early days were publicly posted

Three heretofore unnoticed heroes made a name for themselves during a big bank heist and Vahzilok vandal fest in Atlas Park yesterday.

Barely fifteen minutes into the formation of The Bad, the Ugly, and the Mutagenic, new wretches and schemers were already pounding at the door of the team's one-room hideout.Fresh from being thrown off the parapets of Fort Darwin by an outraged Kalinda and her guards, the neophyte villain Fire of Saturn crawled out of the sea and put in an application of her own.The technology-based fire and ice

Despite seeing the pictures, when Carrot Boy retold his winter-time adventures in Pocket D to Citrus Shocker, she suspected he was on drugs-- as it is well known that members of Hunger Strike are a little on the new-agey, hippy side of reality as is. He described giant bipedal reindeer and evil snow men hanging outside of a lair of nay-do-good elves called the Red caps. And not to mention some

Speaking on behalf of the group, Plague Dog announced yesterday that the group of super-villains named The Unbeholden is doing "just fine."Speaking outside the Quicken Loan Sports Arena of Port Oakes, the canine-looking fiend held a 20 minute press conference. During the conference he sought to put to rest rumors of the dissolution of the Unbeholden. Still he did not deny that former group-leader

As if the recent shake-up in the Unbeholden wasn't enough, it seems that the Angry Beet has returned! Earlier this evening, a Longbow stealth flyer caught the image of a new flunky watching Arbiter Richard's back in Mercy City. After considerable color and lighting enhancement, the picture at right was produced. As anyone who has followed the career of Broccoli Mangod and Hunger Strike knows,

Has Beasty Boy quit the Unbeholden? Rumors were already flying that Mistress Terrorist had taken over when this photo appeared, depicting team leader Beasty Boy hanging out with local unfortunates in Cap au Diable. Could it be that there's been a coup? You'll know when we do!

Last night, Citrus Shocker hooked up with the long-absent Capt. Scrappy (of The Scrap Pile) and their old pal Master Imhotep (of The Eye of Horus) in Atlas Park to discuss coalition and base-building issues. Scrappy and Shocker, always game for an adventure, helped Imhotep out on a sewer mission that helped remind all of them why they really hate the Clockwork, and then wandered around Perez

Sunshrike and Red Daimyo wandered across Croatoa, Steel Canyon, and Boomtown in search of treats tonight. Boomtown turned out to have a great Halloween atmosphere but not many doors to knock on, just a lot of Nazis and trolls. The others were quite a trip though. We found lots of treats, lots of nasties to fight, and lots of other heroes out trick-or-treating. It's a great event they've got

So I log in with my spiffy new high tech super-hero, Zapirra, and it's dark. And it stays dark. Well past when the sun should have risen in Paragon City, it's still not there. I wandered up to an interesting-looking door and peeked in and got a treat. Cool. A few more doors, and suddenly a werewolf, a zombie, and some kind plant creature with a jack-o-lantern head pop out and attack me!All

Finally! I finally got tentacles! Okay, I've been pining after the "tenebrous tentacles" power forever but I don't play all that much and it's hard to get to for the defender I was playing in City of Heroes because it's in her secondary power group. Villainous corruptors like Mistress Terrorist (of the Unbeholden) here, however, can get it pretty quickly. She's only 8th level and already
