Superboy Vol 1 #131
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The debut of Mammoth Mutt is in the backup story of Superboy #131 back in 1966, the book focusing on Superman's teenaged years in the Silver Age of Comics. It's also the debut of the organisation he's a part of, the S.P.C.A., the Special Canine Patrol Agents.
In this story, 'The Dog from S.P.C.A.!', Superboy is called to go to his future teammates the Legion of Super-Heroes from the 30th century, tasking Krypto to takes on his master's usual patrols while he's gone, much to Krypto's annoyance due to enjoying his visits to the Legion. (Pic 1)
While on space patrol, he comes across something unusual floating in proximity of a rocky planet - a massive balloon wandering around, with a dog's head, limbs and tail sticking out. The breed could either be a Great Dane or Pitbull. Krypto has no idea why what appears to be a balloon is floating in the vast empty expanse of space, remarking he's never heard of 'a Thanksgiving Day Parade in space!'. While the first panel may give the impression of Mammoth Mutt being roughly the same size as Krypto, the second panel and third panels reveal that, no, this spherical superhero lives up to his codename with the scale displayed, looking like the size of a building compared to the Kryptonian canine. His agent collar is nestled against the point between his neck and body-fitting outfit.
Unfortunately, Mutt's shot down by a long-range missile piercing straight through him, causing him to yell out in pain and fall down to the surface of the planet, Krypto following after realising this 'dog-blimp' is in facta living being. (Pic 2)
On the planet, the deflated Mammoth Mutt's normal size is seen to be more in line with Krypto's. The dying dog uses telepathy to explain he's an agent of S.C.P.A., with each agent having their own unique ability, describing his ability to 'gulp in huge amounts of air and inflate like a balloon'. He was after the Canine Caper Gang who had captured his fellow members, and requests Krypto to help save them in his place. Once he passes away, Krypto makes a grave for him and wears his agent collar in his stead, going off to save and be part of the S.C.P.A. (Pic 3)
And thus this is the only appearance of the original Mammoth Mutt. While it was very brief, it wasn't without its influence aside from Krypto going the agency, as we'll soon see.

30 Inspirational Quotes About ketamine pills for sale
Ketamine is a drug used in the health-related industry to deal with melancholy in persons and for a surgical anesthetic during the veterinary sector; even so, like quite a few medicine, it could be abused. It's really a recognized “club drug,” well-known amid teens and younger Grown ups at dance golf equipment and raves. Nonetheless, it has the horrible difference as staying a ‘date rape’ drug; the Countrywide Drug Intelligence Heart notes it's been used by predators to incapacitate their meant victims. The drug makes hallucinations, distorts perceptions of sight and audio, and helps make the consumer come to feel disconnected and not in control.
It’s No surprise it is a crucial drug that should be off the streets. The Taiwan Coastline Guard did just that when it intercepted a ship at sea, boarded it with canines and handheld narcotics analyzers, and found ‘bricks’ of substances discovered as ketamine concealed guiding a doorway in what sounds like the engine room. (You may view the interdiction transpire on YouTube.)
The US Division of ketamine pills for sale Justice Drug Point Sheet describes that ketamine is made commercially like a powder or liquid:
Ketamine is available in a clear liquid in addition to a white or off-white powder. Powdered ketamine (100 milligrams to 200 milligrams) typically is packaged in small glass vials, modest plastic luggage, and capsules and paper, glassine, or aluminum foil folds. Powdered ketamine is Lower into strains generally known as bumps and snorted, or it really is smoked, normally in cannabis or tobacco cigarettes. Liquid ketamine is injected or mixed into drinks. Ketamine is observed by alone or frequently in combination with MDMA, amphetamine, methamphetamine, or cocaine.
In 1999, ketamine, together with its salts, isomers and salts of isomers, grew to become a Program III non-narcotic material underneath the Controlled Substances Act.
The maritime patrol is the 1st line of defense of border protection for Taiwan plus they taken off 1380 kilograms (above 3,000 lbs) of the illicit drug with the incoming ship, and eventually from getting into the arms of abusers.
Taiwan is not the only space of unlawful shipments of Ketamine. From the US, Customs and Border Safety (CPB) companies have also had some lesser seizures of illegal ketamine recently. Previous May well the Atlanta CPB officers seized ketamine that totaled just about 56 ounces using a street worth estimated $eleven,000 and handed the offenders to the community county law enforcement Division for prosecution. Months prior to that, the CPB officers in Cincinnati seized eleven shipments containing a total of 30 pounds of smuggled ketamine worthy of $215,000 that were concealed in shipments of non-public care products and solutions.
Much more recently the Indianapolis CPB experienced 3 seizures in three times leading to Practically 50 pounds of ketamine located in h2o purification gear, elephant statues, and folding ottomans. Avenue value of the 3 seizures? $321,000.
The unlawful drug trade is unquestionably a worldwide issue and ketamine is simply a portion of the challenge. Customs and Border Security (CBP) organizations charged with stopping narcotics, new artificial medication, and other illicit substances from crossing our borders will need narcotics identification resources that give quick analysis in the port of entry. Raman spectroscopy has started to become the know-how of option for this application simply because it provides extremely correct success straight within the scene, enabling officers, customs agents, border control, as well as other staff to scan suspected illicit substances in only one, definitive check, and can sample most substances by means of sealed packaging, raising officer basic safety.

bnha original characters
This is less about the characters themselves and more about their quirks, their strengths, weaknesses, and the like. I only included Ursa and Cujo in this from anxiety bear. 
I might make more about Quick Comfort’s reader, some side characters, and villains to explore their quirks further. Let me know if you’d like to read about more characters! I liked doing this!
Tumblr media
anxiety bear’s reader
Hero Name: Ursa (Latin; bear)
Quirk: Arctotherium
She can transform into an Arctotherium angustidens (an extinct genus of South American short-faced bear). A secondary effect of her quirk is her enhanced senses.
Height: on all fours, she’s 5’11ft at the shoulder (perfect height for biting people right in the jugular); on her hind legs, she’s 12ft
Weight: around 2,900 pounds
Hero Costume: It’s made out of simple, relaxed, and breathable clothing. To nullify her heightened smell, she has a mask. It’s a small, specialized respirator that filters even the tiniest odor. After she uses her quirks, she needs food, so there’s a small pocket on her thigh that she keeps filled with protein bars. For cold weather, she adds a cloak.
Strengths:
Ursa’s sheer mass and weight benefit her, making her difficult to knock/jar, a powerful hitter, and becomes quite the tank when she gets charging. Running up to 45mph at long distances, she’s easily able to break through walls, catch those trying to escape, and escape herself if necessary. She relies mostly on her senses of hearing (which exceeds frequencies humans can hear) and smell (which is about 2,000 times greater than a human’s).
Her fur, dark brown in color, provides protection against impact and some claws/knives due to its thickness. It is not impenetrable. Enough force behind the weapon can spear through her fur.
For offense, her claws and teeth are her main weapons. Her paws are about 1.2 feet (not including her claws). Her claws are around 4 inches. As with other bears, they aren’t actually that sharp. She just has enough power behind her swing to cause damage no matter their acuteness. It’s enough to knock the wind out of someone.
Weaknesses:
She can’t talk while in bear form. She can hear, but being unable to communicate back can cause difficulties while working in teams.
While Ursa’s enhanced senses prove useful in many cases, they’re also her main weakness. Overloading her senses is a sure-fire way to force her unconscious, incapacitated, or to unshift. Smell is the quickest and easiest to overtax, especially with acrid, bitter, and sharp scents. Hearing and sight are next: with high-pitched noises, inaudible by the average human, and deep, bass sounds that rumble her bones; and with bright lights, flashing ones are the worst.
Because of her sensitivities, she acts more like a powerhouse for brief fights. If she’s in one too long, the greater the chances of her becoming overwhelmed. She’s more of a hindrance than anything if she gets overwhelmed.
Quirk Side Effects/Other Info:
Ursa’s senses are still enhanced when she isn’t in bear form. It mimics Sensory Processing Disorder. Her mask helps with her sense of smell. For sight, she has glasses that block out the wavelengths that irritate her eyes the most. For hearing, she has hearing hampers. They work the opposite of hearing aids; instead of amplifying noises/pitches, they dampen them before sending the soundwaves into the ear.
After exerting a certain amount of energy while using her quirk, her body rapidly depletes its resources. The protein bars in her costume help while she’s on patrol. After intense fights, she needs much more than the snacks, often choosing chicken breast topped with fried eggs on any combination of rice, steak, vegetables, and cheeses (she refuses to eat any type of seafood or beans, hating the smell, taste, and texture in her mouth).
Although she tends to ignore this part, she goes through a sort of ‘heat’ like bears do. It starts around mid-May and lasts till early July. She spends more time inside during it.
Quirk Malfunction:
Shifting in and out of her bear form isn’t always a smooth process. Changing is typically easy as her body is reverting into its natural state; she just relaxes, let’s go, and it happened. It’s quick, and she hardly has to try. Sometimes, when she’s exhausted, injured, or otherwise overwhelmed, parts of her body may not revert properly.
Here’s an example from when she was eight (this is a condensed/slightly modified version of the explanation I gave in anxiety bear):
She couldn’t remember what was overwhelming. Something just hurt. She couldn’t move or do anything. So she started panicking. When she shifted back, her face felt horrible. It felt as if her skin was being stretched and her bones were warped. She screamed. Her dad came outside, wrapped a towel around her face, picked her up, and brought her to the hospital.
Her facial bones didn’t properly shift. In our maxilla, we have an infraorbital foramen which is the opening to the infraorbital canal. It transmits a nerve, vein, and artery. Bears also have this, but their anatomy is different. The important difference, in this case, is their maxilla and mandible length due to their muzzles. Human skulls are relatively flat in comparison.
When Ursa shifted, her maxilla remained long like a bear’s (about four inches). Her upper canines were still large and pointing outward. At the hospital, X-Rays showed her infraorbital canal was shoved forward. Because it was only her maxilla that malfunctioned, her nerves and arteries were stretched almost to the point of ripping as they were still fit for a human. She couldn’t talk or see and could hardly smell.
To fix it whenever this happens, she needs to be given Tizanidine. It’s a skeletomuscular relaxant with antispastic agents. It slows the brain and nervous system’s activity to let your muscles relax. Her body will eventually fix itself.
Tumblr media
Kuma (reader’s brother in anxiety bear)
Hero Name: Cujo (From the Stephen King story. He prefers the film because of the more optimistic ending.)
Quirk: Arctotherium
Kuma’s quirk is very similar to his sister’s. He can transform into an Arctotherium angustidens. A secondary effect of his quirk is enhanced senses. However, they aren’t as enhanced as Ursa’s.
Height: He stands at 6’1ft on all fours and 14 feet on his hind legs
Weight: around 3,200 pounds
Hero Costume: Much like his sister, his costume is relaxed and comfortable clothing. He also has a mask to filter smells (but uses it less frequently than Ursa) and a pocket on his thigh for protein snacks.
Strengths:
Cujo shares many strengths and weaknesses with Ursa, mainly thick fur for protection, sharp teeth, and long claws. One difference is that he has more mass and weight to his advantage. It makes him a heavier hitter, able to cause more damage in less amount of time. And since his senses aren’t as sensitive, he doesn’t have to worry about becoming overwhelmed as much as Ursa does. These factors allow him to hit harder, last longer in fights, and take in more sensory input.
He’s willing to fight dirty and bloody to win (though some believe that to be a weakness) With his size, he’s able to sustain quite a bit of damage without it hindering him. A bullet to the side or a slash to his back would incapacitate an average human/someone of a smaller size. He’d barely feel the bullet, let alone have to worry about it.
Weaknesses:
The burden of Kuma’s weight takes a toll on his body. Bones undergoing shifting, sometimes grinding against one another, the sudden and intense weight changes, and stress on his muscles often lead to aches and pains. He’s gotten accustomed to it as he’s trained and grown-up. Some preventive measures are: taking pain medication before going on patrol, wearing compression sleeves under his costume, hot baths, and cold compresses.
Due to his size, he requires a higher amount of protein than his sister. And the longer a fight is combined with how much energy he exerts, the quicker his body exhausts. He’s built for dealing damage as hastily and as fiercely as possible. If a fight occurs while he’s on patrol, he’s done after the fight, needing a great deal of protein before his body gives, typically going for seafood and/or steak. If he doesn’t get the protein in time, he’ll faint, suffering from a sudden onset of severe protein deficiency, and need medical attention.
This doesn’t have to do with the fighting part of a Hero’s career, but he is not kid-friendly, often caught swearing on camera, shoving cameras and reporters out of his space, and sometimes picking fights with other Heroes and interviewers he doesn’t like. It makes his popularity suffer.
Quirk Side Effects/Other Info:
Kuma’s senses aren’t enhanced enough to be considered a weakness, but they do cause significant stress in his daily life, notably touch and feel. Textures, high temperatures, and others touching him are what irritates him the most. His reaction is less distress (like Ursa’s is) and more anger at the cause.
It’s not proven, but his quirk seems to affect his personality a bit. He’s very protective of his sister and very prepared to snap (with his mouth as a warning sign) at anyone who he doesn’t know and/or doesn’t like.
From mid-May till early July, Kuma also goes through a heat. Unlike his sister, who’s timid and resistant when it comes to socializing, he’s very brash, impulsive, and sometimes aggressive, going to bars throughout those months, choosing any man or woman piques his interest enough to go home with.
Quirk Malfunction:
Kuma also undergoes the same bodily malfunction as his sister. It happens to him more often due to the strain on his body and its need for large quantities of protein. The ladder is usually the reason for a malfunction (kind of like biological short-circuiting).

the cover to Amazing Heroes (1981) #152 by Dave McKean Inside the November 1988 issue, there is an interview with both Dave and Neil Gaiman (I’ve only included the Gaiman one, because this post is already long enough). Both interviews are good, and it’s very interesting seeing Neil talk about Sandman months before the first issue came out. Also, Neil mentions the Space Canine Patrol Agents, earning him all of the nerd points.

Alex Final Wars 2: Dark Alex, Chapter 32 - Lone Human
Captain Boehm sat alone in the cargo bay of a large aircraft, flying high above the earth. The vehicle was so high that the captain needed a sealed tactical suit with a breathing apparatus, covering every inch of his pale skin. The only noise was the deafening aircraft engines and Alex's rhythmic breathing against the clear fog-resistant faceplate on his helmet.
"How are you doing, Alex?" JayJay asked through the radio from some other location.
"I'm ok. I checked everything. My suit is sealed, I have my weapon and ammo, my parachute looks good, and I checked to make sure the Fulton device looks like it's working. I'll get in there, grab the general, and get out."
"Alright, but you be careful, ok? Just make sure you get home."
"Of course, Jay. Hey, I have you waiting for me back at home, don't I?"
The wolf didn't say anything, but Alex could tell she was blushing. The voice of the pilot came through.
"Prepare for jump, 60 seconds."
"Listen, Jay, I gotta go. Take care. I'll see you later."
"Ok, I'll be waiting for you." The wolf said, then made a kissing sound.
"30 seconds." The pilot said.
The Heroes leader prepared himself, steadying his nerves. He grabbed hold of the metal handles on either side of the small cargo bay as the bay doors below opened up.
"10 seconds."
Alex could see the curved earth far below him. The sun reflecting off the sea, clouds blowing in the wind, and mighty mountain ranges.
"Jump!"
The captain let go of the metal handles and plunged down towards the planet. He was now truly alone in the border between sky and space. The earth slowly grew closer and closer, as Alex could hear air racing by him as he continued his descent. Below him was China's countryside, stretched out in all its glory, brimming with people, cities, and natural landscapes.
Using this moment of peace, the captain went over what intelligence had been gathered about the prison. There would be plenty of guards at the site, locks equipped with retinal scanners, and most likely a heavily geared up armed response team. But it was Nothing that couldn't be handled.
As he neared the ground, holographic numbers appeared on the glass faceplate of the helmet Alex was wearing.
"5..... 4...... 3...... 2...... 1......"
Rapidly blinking words flashed across his glass faceplate.
"DEPLOY! DEPLOY! DEPLOY!"
The captain fumbled for a second and then pulled the cord on his backpack, quickly slowing down as the parachute unfurled and decreased his velocity.
The ground came closer and closer, appearing dark expanse of forest, rock, dirt, and trees. He directed himself towards a small clearing in a group of trees and landed. The captain disconnected the parachute in a flash and started to bundle it up upon touching the ground. He tucked the parachute back into his kit in a position where it wouldn't hinder his movement or fighting. Alex didn't want to leave any evidence behind that someone might discover.
The Chinese prison would only be a short trek away, and the captain was ready. He carried a pistol and a semi-auto rifle, both silenced. Alex's eyes picked out a few lights ahead and a chainlink fence. He crept up to the metal structure and used a small laser cutting device to breach the wall before transitioning to the other side. His eyes continuously scanned for Chinese guards, taking note of their movements and positions.
Moving into the next area, the captain spotted some guards on patrol, and they would need to be taken down for him to pass. A canine sniper was positioned up in a tower, surveying the entire area. The captain took aim with his rifle and fired a single shot. The bullet cut through the air, striking the canine and putting him down for the count.
Moving ahead, Alex crept behind a pile of containers and gave a small whistle.
"Huh?"
A Chinese guard heard the noise and slowly moved to investigate. When he neared the containers, Alex jumped out and stabbed the soldier in the neck with his knife. The trooper tried to say something, but all that came out was a low gargle as the guard's body was pulled behind the containers.
Two more guards, both humans, were chatting nearby. After exchanging a couple of words, they parted ways and went in separate directions. Alex put them both down with highly accurate headshots from his rifle. One guard left, but he had his back burned and didn't notice what was happening. Before he could make a move, the captain had already silenced him with some SMG shots.
The captain pressed further ahead, entering the prison proper. A pair of security cameras protected the entrance, but they were quickly destroyed with gunfire. The captain tried the door, but it was locked. He moved to an electrical panel on the wall nearby, using brute strength to pull off the metal covering.
He messed around with the wires inside until a small buzzer went off, indicating the door was open. The captain reloaded his weapon and entered the prison. There was a security station directly inside. However, the trio of Chinese guards was busy looking at monitoring screens. Probably wondering why they had suddenly lost the signal from their security cameras outside.
The captain crouched down and slowly moved past the security station windows, going around to the door and opening it.
The guards inside froze, seeing an unknown agent standing there, pistol in hand. A panda guard tried to draw his gun. But before he could raise it to a firing position, captain Boehm had already shot him dead. His body slumped back against the wall and onto the floor.
The other two guards were sure to comply now, for fear of suffering the same fate.
The captain kept his gun trained on the two remaining guards. At the same time, he typed into a computer terminal in the security room, searching through the prisoners' list in the computer system.
While Alex was distracted momentarily, gazing at the computer screen. One of the guards, a tiger, started to move. Without even flinching, Alex aimed his pistol at his chest and squeezed back a little bit on the trigger. The weapon didn't go off, but the tiger got the message and returned to where he was previously.
The captain finally found his objective's name in the prisoner database. It was a foreign name, so it was easy to spot. Tom Jones, a human US general, captured by the PLA, and Alex was here to rescue him. He was located in cell 20. Keeping his gun trained on the guards, Alex backed out of the security station and pointed down the hallway. The guards complied and moved deeper into the prison, soon coming upon a metal door with a retinal lock.
Alex pointed to the lock, and one of the guards, a pig, moved towards it. She opened her eye and allowed the device to scan her. The metal door hummed and opened.
With their usefulness fulfilled, the captain hit both guards on the head with his pistol. Knocking them out before stealing their keys. He advanced into the prison proper, looking at the numbers in the cell doors until he found cell 20. He unlocked the small metal slot in the door and called inside.
"General Jones?"
The human inside instantly got up and went over to the door upon hearing someone with an American accent.
"Yes? Who are you?"
"I'm Captain Alex Boehm. I'm here to rescue you."
The captain passed his pistol to the general through the metal slot used to give out food trays.
"I'm going to open all the cells, that should start a riot and give us cover to escape."
"Ok, be quick now."
The captain left the general's cell and moved towards the prison watchtower, sticking to the shadows and avoiding the guards' eyes. Alex slowly moved up into the tower itself and gunned down both guards inside before they could make a move.
He then moved over to the control panel used to open the cell doors and opened up all of them. He also opened every security door in the prison, which would make escape easier.
Mammals of all sizes moved out into the prison hallways as the captain headed back to the general's cell. A few prisoners gave Alex weird looks as he passed by. But they noticed the American flag on his shoulder and recognized that he was not one of their wardens.
General Jones had already moved out of his cell into the hallway, pistol in his hands. He was a somewhat older man, his face being aged, but his hair and mustache had not turned gray yet. Alex knew all that meant was that he was experienced and could handle himself in combat. His uniform was also redder in color than the other inmates' orange uniforms, indicating he was a high-security prisoner.
"General?"
"Captain?"
"I have an escape plan. We need to get back outside, and then we'll extract via Fulton."
Suddenly, alarm bells rang out, indicating someone had clued in about what was going on inside the prison.
"Guess we better move."
The pair began moving through the prison, weapons at the ready. Many inmates followed close behind, some armed with makeshift weapons, but most had just their claws.
The mob of mammals came upon a single wolf guard with his back turned, facing off against 5 inmates. The inmates had him outnumbered and surrounded, but the guard was armed with a pistol. His aim was rapidly snapping from one inmate to the next. One of the prisoners tried to tackle the guard, but he was quickly gunned down.
Captain Boehm drew his knife and crept up behind the guard before driving the blade deep into his back and putting him down. A cheer erupted from the assembled inmates as one spit on the guard's body, and the American general picked up the discarded pistol, along with some more ammo from the guard. Tucking both items into his clothing.
As the group kept moving forward, through a large holding area and towards a pair of doors, a team of mammals in riot gear suddenly burst through the exit and began to advance. They were dressed head to toe in body armor and carried batons and shields.
Battle cries and howls broke out as both sides surged towards each other. Captain Boehm and General Jones engaged, managing to take down 2 riot troopers. Still, other soldiers blocked the gunfire with their shields.
A wolf trooper ran at the captain, baton in the air, ready to strike down. But Alex grabbed the wolf's wrist and prevented him from striking before breaking the wrist. The wolf screamed, but the captain punched him in the face, breaking the plastic faceplate and knocking the wolf out.
Another riot trooper charged, but Alex dodged the attack, got behind the enemy, and put some rounds in her.
Elsewhere, the general had gotten his hands on one of the guard's buttons and was currently wielding the weapon in his left hand, with one of his pistol in the right.
He gunned down and whacked many guards, all the while the riot troopers and inmates fought around him.
"Boehm! I need ammo!" The general said, tossing Alex the pistol given to him earlier.
The captain caught the pistol and tucked it back in his holster.
"SMG!" The captain yelled, throwing the general his P90 SMG. Both Americans were now armed with a primary weapon and a sidearm.
A riot trooper attacked, forcing the captain to pause what he was saying for a moment to parry the blow and return the hit the soldier with the butt of his rifle.
"AMMO!" Alex threw the general a pouch of ammo and continued to engage the Chinese riot troopers.
Then, through the crowd emerged a large water Buffalo riot guard, repeatedly tapping his baton against the inside of his hoof. Markings on his uniform indicated that he was a commander.
"I'll handle this." Captain Boehm said, moving towards the Buffalo. The guard swung downward, forcing Alex to sidestep the strike. The Buffalo attacked again, forcing Alex to jump as the heavy baton passed under him.
With a brief window, Boehm landed a few shots on the Buffalo. Not enough to kill him, but doing damage. The commander countered and swung with his arm, hitting Alex and sending the human flying backward.
"Ok... ow..." the captain said, getting back on his feet and checking over his body. "Nothing's broken. Let's try that again."
The captain put his rifle on his back and drew his pistol before charging towards the Buffalo.
The guard commander swung, but Alex dodged the attack and jumped up onto the Buffalo's arm. As he ran up the arm, the guard tried to grab the smaller human. But Alex jumped off the arm onto the wall, leaped off the wall, and landed behind the Buffalo's head on the guard's back.
Before the commander could react, Alex shot the Buffalo's hand, causing him to drop the baton. The commander yelled and tried to grab the human, who hunkered down to avoid the strikes.
Boehm tore off the guard's helmet and held onto the Buffalo's horns, hitting the commander's face with his pistol. Using the horns and his sidearm as an extremely rudimentary control scheme, Alex pushed on the horns and forced the Buffalo forward towards a squad of riot troopers. Upon reaching the group, Alex once again bashed the commander's face with his pistol. This caused the Buffalo to flail about widely and slam the ground, knocking down some of the smaller riot guards with his immense strength. Alex directed the Buffalo to another group of guards and made the commander slam into them as well, sending the guards flying backward.
There was no longer any use for the commander. The way was clear of hostiles. The captain leaped off the Buffalo's back and lined up his shot while still in the air. He pulled the trigger, and a group of bullets hit the rear of the commander's head, killing him.
Another cheer erupted from the inmates, and the crowd made haste to the exit doors.
"You can sure as hell fight." General Jones said.
"So can you."
The 2 Americans and the inmates reached the exit. The prisoners immediately started running to get as far away from the prison as they could.
"This way," Alex said, him and the general leaving the inmates and heading towards a construction site.
"Looks like we're clear." General Jones said, scanning the area with his weapon at the ready.
"Ok, put this on," Alex said, taking out a harness and putting it on the general.
Suddenly gunfire erupted nearby, and the pair of Americans readied their weapons.
"Armed response team." The general said.
"Take cover."
The pair ducked behind parts of a concrete foundation in the construction site.
A group of 5 Chinese soldiers in full combat gear entered the area—their rifles at the ready.
2 soldiers were gunned down by Alex and Jones before they could get to cover. The remaining trio returned fire, forcing the Americans to take cover.
Jones lined up a headshot on one Chinese trooper and pulled the trigger.
Captain Boehm targeted a soldier moving from cover to cover and sprayed him with bullets.
The last soldier was outnumbered and swiftly eliminated.
"We're clear." The general said, checking twice to make sure there was no one else in the vicinity.
"More will be here soon. We need to get out of here."
Captain Boehm clipped his own harness to the generals and attached a small device to the pair. He activated the device, and the hiss of pressurized air could be heard. A white balloon inflated, growing bigger and bigger as it climbed into the sky.
The balloon was connected to the 2 Americans by a tough cord. The cable itself blinked with lights as if it was bioluminescent. This was the Fulton device, and it would get them out of Chinese territory.
A plane's engines' dull roar could be heard as a disguised cargo plane above spotted the glowing balloon and cord and started to line up with them.
On the ground, Jones and Alex heard the footsteps of more approaching Chinese soldiers. The metal components of their combat gear jingled as they moved.
The two Americans were stuck in 1 spot, weapons at the ready, as the plane grew closer and closer.
The Chinese troops entered the construction site, but before anyone could fire, the plane snagged the balloon and cord, pulling Alex and Jones into the air. The Chinese troops could only watch astonished as their targets disappeared into the night sky.
American airmen inside the cargo plane pulled Alex and Jones inside the aircraft before closing the cargo hatch.
Captain Boehm took off his helmet and ran a hand through his brown hair.
General Jones offered his own hand for the captain to shake.
"It was an honor to fight by your side." The general said. "I owe you my life for getting me out of there. Thank you."
Alex returned the favor and shook the general's hand.
"The honor was all mine. And with you free, we'll make some serious headway against the Chinese."

Looking at ‘Families’ as Pantheons
If things are going okay with the first entity you work with the idea of working with a pantheon, or a group of entities, might begin to take hold.
One way to find other characters to work with is to look at their associates. If you are working with Wally West you might look at the other members of the Flash Family for example. Knowing one member of the family might make it easier to work with other members of the group.
Depending on your personal practice you might choose to work with both the member of the family you know and the member you are trying to begin working with at once as a way of starting the connection between you.
Aside from the Flash Family you should keep in mind that there are other groups that can be worked with; The Aqua Family and The Marvel Family among them. 
It should also be considered whether teams could be used this way; such as The Doom Patrol, The Justice League, The Space Canine Patrol Agents, The Teen Titans acting in the same way as families.

Krypto by Jesse Wichmann "...in # 1, Krypto is confused, excited and amazed by the little bug crawling along. #2 shows Krypto's new friend going through some changes and Krypto is vigilantly protecting the defenseless bug from a curious invader. #3 of course shows Krypto enjoying the whimsy and beauty of the bug who has turned into a butterfly."
