Poster Children Cleared of Arson Charges

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, snickering and bragging."
"All I know," adds Laggy, "is that things were under control when I left the building. Then Peryton starts screeching in my radio like some kind of harpy about disarming the bombs, even though I already disarmed a bomb. It's not like I could just go back in there. There were vandals outside! I had to stop the vandals, you know."

Peryton responded, "You disarmed one bomb! There were six more in the room, and a whole other squad of zombies came in after you left! Broyko, tell him!"

Captain Broyko declined to comment on the exact details of the incident. "All I'm saying is that they didn't cause the fire. Not on purpose, anyway. And they did stop a bank robbery."

"And vandals!" interjected Laggy. "We stopped a whole slew of undead vandals!"

NEW THREAT LOOMING!


(Excerpt from the William O' Flatulent Nough-Spin Zone show on Fox News-oid network).

Bill-O: ...While everyone else is worried about their hair and whatnot, there is a quite threat starting to crop up in our streets. First it was the Crips and Bloods, then it was the Arachnos, and now it's the Angry Bees. This group of whackoh, liberal media-driven villains are gaining ground in our fair city, while all the Hollyweird stars of the Scrap Pile or the Eye of Horus just sit around with Susan Crow and grip about the war and the environment...Something has to be done about this.

(An exclusive RogueParagon response from the only known Angry Bee "hive" member to speak publically)

"What the hell did he say?" The Deviant Bee, "I support our troops, dammit!"

Scrap Pile Going Rogue?

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 when I look so good?" while Starbryte asked if it was inappropriate for her to wear her mask when everyone else was just wearing sunglasses.

Current team leader Citrus Shocker, in a follow-up call she initiated herself, added, "Look, it's well known that Arbiter Sands sometimes helps out heroes on perfectly legitimate missions for reasons of his own, and it's well known Scrappy loves to have his picture taken. Obviously nobody here was too worried about being photographed. It's not exactly grainy security film, and look, they're posing. Sands isn't even wearing his helmet. In fact- hey, wait a minute! Are those my old glasses? STARBRYTE!"

Although known for generously helping Santa Claus recover from a brutal mugging in King's Row, the Scrap Pile has been seen working with villains before, as recently as this past Valentine's Day, allegedly because it was the only way to help the enigmatic DJ Zero of Pocket D protect his other-dimensional portal system from roaming gnomes.
