the picture of Gary Oldman.. it comes from "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy", by chance?

[samsson37]

MM: Superman is quickly approaching. You need to hurry.
*Voice* Don't sweat it, Jonn. I'm here


Orca: Well, this has been fun. But I need to wrap this up.

Breaker: Get some tubby..

*Voice*: No need to waste any more bullets on this genius. I've been sent to rescue you.

Orca: Tooooo bright...

Green Lantern: Irony isn't wasted on you, I see.

Green Lantern: Let's get this over with so these guys can go home. Ok?

*** AT THAT VERY MOMENT ***

Penfold: Birdwatcher. You need to get to a loading bay, escape hatch, something. Once you get there, activate your homing signal. We have an extraction team en route.


Big Ben: I hear you loud and clear.

Quarrel: Estimated impact of incoming object with base...8 minutes
Penfold: HURRY MAN HURRY!!

Big Ben: You heard them. Let's go. Why are you looking at me like that? 8 minutes..

Mirage: I am a master of deception, Big Ben. You aren't fooling me. They are extracting you. Not us. You can't use me to help you reach your destination. Our "partnership" is at its end.

Mirage: Good luck
Big Ben: You too mate..

**** IN A DIFFERENT CORRIDOR ****

Shooter: Well, this looks like a good place as any.

Shooter: Shooter to Colton..HQ..anyone? We've reached a location that appears suited for a BOOMTUBE extraction.

Colton: I'm here, Shooter. Cyborg is almost ready. As soon as he's set, the BOOMTUBE will be activated.

Shooter: Copy that. But hurry. Grunts lost a lot of blood.

Grunt: Don't listen to her boss. Im FINE.

Zap: Callate el hocico! You want any remaining troops to know our location.

Shooter: We're going silent until you notify us, sir. Shooter out.

Green Lantern: Well, that was slightly harder than I expected. But mission accomplished.

GL: Well, almost. You're leaving with us, Namor
Namor: You think so? I think not.

GL: You escaped from Aquaman's prison. That makes you a criminal.

Namor: And you believing you can take me back makes you an idiot.

Shortfuse: If they're going to fight. Can Green Lantern, at the very least, let us out of this thing so we can find our way out?
Torpedo: Agreed.

Breaker: Saved by the bell, I think. Yes, sir

Colton: Thank God. Your com is broken. Have you been extracted?

Breaker: Ummmmm sort of...
Colton: What? Explain.

Colton: WHAT?! We don't have time for this. Put him on speaker NOW !!

Breaker: Ummmmm..GL dude. It's for you.

GL: What?

GL: Who is?
Colton: Captain Jordon! This is General Colton!

Colton: I have been informed of the current situation, and I am ordering you to stand down. The capture of Namor is not your assigned mission! You are to complete the mission given to you, Captain. Do you hear me?

GL: With all due respect, General, I'm a Justice Leag..

Colton: BEFORE YOU'RE A JUSTICE LEAGUER, you are a soldier in the United States Air Force. You have an obligation to this country and your fellow soldiers. Are you going to ignore a direct order by a military superior and risk the lives of your fellow soldiers? Or are you going to follow orders...

Namor: Well, lapdog...you heard the General. Better make a decision quickly. Water is rising, and my strength is returning

GL: Another time..

GL: We're leaving now, sir.

**** ON A DIFFERENT LEVEL ****

Hawk: I've run out of time and patience. You will tell me what I need to know, or I will kill you where you stand.
TO BE CONTINUED....

[Itchweed]

Oh wow! Green Lantern! Love that Colton told him the what's up. Also love that it appears those Joes will make it to safety. What about Mirage and Big Ben though?

[Ponygt50]

Another nice one buddy!! GL was awesome;)

[samsson37]

Hawk: We are all out of time. Tell me what I want to know now or DIE


GungHo: They protectin that door mighty tight dont ya say?

RnR: Yeah, these snakes are dug in deep. FYI. Getting low on ammo over here.

RnR: While we have the backup unit pinned down at the other end of this hallway. You need to press the advantage and get us to that elevator.
GungHo: You may be onto something

GungHo: Hey snakes! Eat this!


Hawk: Clock is ticking, Scarlett. We have to get these bums away from that elevator to the main hub.
Scarlett: Well, if you'd like, I can go over there and tell them if they surrender, I'll give them the link to my onlyfans....

Scarlett: No sense of humor today?
Hawk: If we make it back. Im telling HR

Urban Viper#4567: Hold your fire. I'm getting word for us to pull back and make it to the nearest escape pod.
Alley Viper#987: What?! We have them sandwiched in?!
Urban Viper#4567: You heard me. The base is F.U.B.A.R. You want to stay? Go right ahead. I said Pull back

RnR: The backup units seem to be pulling back.
Clutch: That's odd. What do you think got them scattering?
Stalker: They obviously know something we don't. Something not too good.

Colton: Hawk. Do you copy?
Hawk: Copy General. I'm here
Colton: The situation has gone from bad to critical. You have about 8 minutes to find that safe space large enough for a BOOMTUBE.

Hawk: I'm not sure I copy, General? My team has met some resistance. But we are well within the 15 minutes allotted to get our intel and be ready for extraction.
Colton: Not the time to argue, Hawk.

Colton: Get your men out of there now, Hawk! That is a direct order. Any possible intel isn't worth the lives of you or your team. This conversation has already taken too much time.
Hawk: That is something we both agree on, General. Hawk out.

Hawk: Anyone who can hear this message. Follow General Colton's orders and find a spot for extraction. You have less than 8 minutes

Stalker: All of that sounded bad. What's the play?
Hawk: I say we get what we came for.

Hawk: Whatever has the General and the Cobra troops spooked is on its way in 8 minutes..The general wants us to abort.

Scarlett: What do you want to do?
Hawk: I think the General's orders need to be followed.
Scarlett: I HEAR you..BUT that's not what I ASKED you. What do you WANT to do?
Hawk: I want to get what we came for.
Scarlett: Then that's what we're doing. Check with the others, I suggest you give them the short version
Hawk: Check

Hawk: GungHo. This just became a suicide run. You want in?

GungHo: Let me save you the trouble of asking everyone. Fuq yeah. You lead, we follow, boss.

Urban Viper#61525: They're prepping for their final salvo. I'm locking the elevator. Hold them long enough for me to override the system

Hawk: Give'em the heat

GungHo: Yes, sir

Alley Viper#4328: INCOMING!!


Stalker: 2 o'clock
Scarlett: Got it

Colton: Damn it Hawk

Stalker: Clear
Scarlett: Not yet

RnR: Clear?
GungHo: MMmmmmmmm Hold that thought

Urban Viper#61525: You'll never take me!!

Urban Viper#61525: We're all going to die together ya hear me! Die toge..


Hawk: We're clear. Let's move Joe's



RnR: WE ON THE HIGHWAY TO HELL BAAAAAABY!!!

TO BE CONTINUED....

[omegamagnus]

when Rock & Roll says they are "ON THE HIGHWAY TO HELL", he's speaking just to open the mouth or that's a reference to the AD/DC song? days ago, I was reading the beginning of Marvel run and recalled he was a former surfer and bass player.

[Ponygt50]

Awesome dude :D Great pacing and another solid installment!!

AC/DC great catch,,

**** LAST TIME ****

LL: This in conjunction with the Sokovia Accords which were established by the United Nations and ratified by 117 nations, serves as a "middle point" between the Heros' desire to secure world peace and the international community's concern over the repercussions of their actions. The last seven days have proven that not only were these laws needed.. but it is time they were enforced. I am enacting ( SECTION 12 Article 34) - All Meta-Human activity will be deemed as an illegal act and an act of aggression towards the United States of America itself.
Superman: That son-of-a-

LL: All maximum meta-human level prisons are on code red. All law enforcement agencies are given clearance to detain any meta-human they may encounter. Consider this martial law for metahumans. Now I know what some people may be thinking. No, we won't withdraw any Meta-Humans in the middle of humanitarian endeavors for the next 16 hours starting now. Once the 16 hours have expired all metahuman activity again will be deemed illegal.

LL: With that, I say good night and God bless America.

*** OUTSIDE THE WHITEHOUSE ***

***Fourth Floor Balcony***

Superman: Mr. President.
President Mewitt: Well quite an entrance. Are you going to hover outside all day or are you coming in?
Superman: Permission to come aboard Mr. President.
President Mewitt: Permission granted.

General Eiling: WHAT'S HE WANT!?

President Mewitt: Now now General. I invited him in. Tell our forces to stand down. Not much they could do anyway.

Superman: I understand. And again thank you for seeing me. Let me start Mr. President by asking for clarification for my own understanding.

Superman: Why are you agreeing with House Speaker Luthor with his ban on Metahumans operating on US soil during a series of terrorist attacks? Wouldn't this be when you want us out helping save as many lives as possible?

General Eiling: WELL...is it working?
**Voice*: SHUTUP...I need to concentrate.

PM: So here we are. We the American people now know we need to save ourselves because you "Heroes" have shown you can't be counted on. To do this properly. We need you and your ilk off the streets out of the skies.."Benched" to coin a phrase. Real American fighting men and women have always protected this great nation. I think the events of this last week have shown the American public and myself, we depend on your kind way too much. That ends now.

PM: With that Superman. I'm afraid your time is up. I have to prepare to speak with my Military Commanders on the present state of affairs and then have a State of the Union address.

Superman: Sir. I humbly disagree with you. We are here to help. We will continue to help. I don't think your assessment of us is fair

PM: I understand you may feel like your hands are being tied, Superman. I get that. But banning Meta-Human activities by noon tomorrow is in the best interest of the American people. I think giving us that much time is very fair.

PM: Thank you for coming Superman. Remember you're a role model to other Heroes. Let them know you support my decision

Superman: Good Day Mr. President.

Voice: Believe in the President...Trust what he says to you....
***FEW MOMENTS LATER***

PM: Well?

Voice* I believe I convinced Superman to trust in whatever you say. I had more difficulty than expected. Your walls in your office have been reinforced rather well for a telepathic attack.

PM: But do you have control over him?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell_Lord
Max Lord: I promise nothing. We shall see.
** HOURS LATER **


Wonder Woman: Colton, we're here and we are almost ready.

Colton: Thank you Dian...Wonder Woman. Here are the coordinates for all the locations.

Wonder Woman: They're all here. Cyborg, are You ready?
Cyborg: Yeah. Let's do it.

Martian Manhunter / Jonn Jones: We may have to wait for a moment, Victor.


MM: Superman has arrived...


Superman: What's going on? I thought we agreed that as of this morning, we were going to stay out of war-time affairs, per the president's request and the legislation that was signed.

Batman: We are aware of the Law that passed. And we have decided that

Superman: That what? The law doesn't apply to us? We are a living testament to law and order.

WW: When the law isn't just. When it's being manipulated and molded for the gains of..
Batman: Clark we're going through with the plan whether you like it or not.


Superman: I gave the President my word.

Cyborg: YOUR word Superman. You don't control or speak for what my BODY can do.


Icon: That will be enough Superman. Please stand down.

Superman: Icon?

Icon: The decision has been voted on and been made. We will give GI Joe aid. Be it inadvertently to avoid conflict.

Flagg: What's taking them so long?
Colton: I don't know.




Orion: Kryptonian.
Big Barda: Greetings all.

Superman: Orion. Barda. Why are you here?

Barda: Hello to you as well Clark. We are here at the request of the league. And by order of the HIGH FATHER himself. The constant use of New God BoomTube technology all over the Earth is causing disruptions to the planet's electromagnetic fields. We're here to help before a disaster occurs.
Orion: In short. YOU primates are as usual dealing with forces you don't understand.

Superman: I appreciate that. we appreciate the help. But as I was telling everyone here. If we interfere we are breaking laws the government has put into order.

Barda: I am NOT an American citizen. I am a New God.
Orion: Hmph

WW: I am a citizen of Themyscira...

Icon: My home world is Terminus...

Batman: Of course you know I would have this figured out.
Superman: Of course.
Batman: We "American citizens" will stay on the Watchtower per agreement. We can't control what non-American Leaguers do with their spare time. Right?

Superman:.....I guess not.

**** NOW ****






Fred: I need to make this quick, sir. I have a press conference to prepare the President for, and he’s going to face a barrage of questions. How is he ensuring the enforcement of the Meta Humans Act? The Krakoans have offered their aid after last week's terrorist attacks. Are we going to accept their offer? Additionally, are mutants considered Meta-Humans?

Fred: Furthermore, Israel and the West Bank are in conflict once again. We also need to address the recent terrorist attacks in Ukraine by the Red Shadows. Are we sending aid there? The situation in Japan is also a disaster. The public is demanding answers.
Lark: And your job is to provide the President with those answers, correct?

Lark: You sound stressed, Fred. You know stress can affect your health, right?

Fred: I'm serious. I know they're going to question him about the protests happening across the nation. In fact, there's a protest demanding Mewett step down before the elections taking place on the front lawn as we speak.

Lark: I have complete faith in the PR team and in you, Fred. You will work your magic and spin the narrative in our favor. With the elections looming, we can't afford any mistakes. You can't afford any mistakes.

Lark: Hello, Doctor.

Dr. Forgione: Ah, Lark, Fredrick, good afternoon. Or is it evening? It's so hard to tell down here.

Lark: Doctor Forgione...
Dr. Forgione: Yes, Lark?
Lark: The President sent us down here to get an update from you.
Dr. Forgione: I see... yes, of course.

Lark: Well, Doctor Forgione,
Dr. Forgione: Yes, Mr. Lark, everything is going according to plan. You should be satisfied with the results.
Lark: Me? No. The President will be pleased with the results.
Dr. Forgione: Ah, yes... correct. My apologies.
Fred: Well, Doctor?
Dr. Forigone: Ah, yes. As you know, Mr. Lord is suffering from a previously inoperable brain tumor. Every time he uses his persuasive powers, his condition worsens. However, this modified telepathic helmet, gifted by the Krakoa government, seems to keep the adverse effects of his powers at bay.

Lark: Will the helmet allow him to keep Superman under our control long enough to complete his assignment?

Dr. Forigone: It's hard to say, honestly. His brainwaves are currently reading steady, but his vitals show a rise in blood pressure. The systolic pressure is above 180, and the diastolic pressure has reached 110. Normally, blood pressure in this range indicates an increased risk of having a heart attack.

Lark: That sounds tragic. Will he survive long enough to influence Superman into destroying the aquatic base and make it seem like America is instigating a war with Russia? Yes or No?
Dr. Forgione: As I mentioned, Mr. Lark, I don't know. He is holding steady for the time being. However, if Superman were to question a command or start to resist adamantly...

Dr. F: If Maxwell exerts himself to regain control, it could cause the tumor on his brain to rupture and lead to hemorrhaging. Given the size of his tumor, if it ruptures, it would almost certainly result in death.

Lark: At this point, Maxwell Lord can be considered collateral damage. If he dies serving the cause, then so be it.
Dr F : *sigh* I understand

Lark: I hope that reality doesn't "bother" you, Doctor. We all must make sacrifices for the greater good, even if it means one must suffer. "There has never been peace without great suffering; the greater the suffering, the greater the peace."

Metallo: That's some cold-blooded rhetoric right there, Lark. And they call me a villain. HA!
Lark: Pardon?

Metallo: You heard me. Sounds very New World Order-ish if you ask me.

Fred: But no one asked for your opinion, Metallo.
Lark: Go on, Doctor

Dr. F: Mmm... yes. Based on my calculations, if everything remains stable, Maxwell will be able to exert a strong influence over Superman for another 20 minutes.

Lark: That’s all the time we need. Fred,* prepare everything for the president. I'm going to stay here for a moment.
Fred: Okay.
Lark: If the president asks for me before I get back, please tell him I have an urgent matter to attend to.
Fred: Yes, sir.
