George Lucas Conference Final: Chapter I

The locker room of the Horsemen of Apokolips is littered with proven champions.  The mood is light since they truly believe what their owner espoused: they will beat the Midgets handily and without issue.  Laughter is heard in certain areas evidencing the overly confident attitude of the combatants. 

The inhabitants are an eclectic and admirable collage of strength.  Darkseid holds Palantir, Damien Thornn stands by his Rottweiler.  At another end of the room, a circle is formed by Superman, Batman and his elderly doppelganger’s canine, Wonder Woman  and Joker.  White Lantern Sinestro, Scar, Oneg the Prober, Annihilus and Black Bolt talk amongst themselves.  Havok, Exodus, Hope Summers and Vulcan are joined by Obi Wan Kenobi, Freddy Krueger, John McClane, Achilles, Horatio Caine and Harry Potter.  Meanwhile, at another end of the room stand Transformer Darth Vader, Optimus Prime, Roller and Godzilla.  Brandon Inge, Dr. Teresa Oblak, Dexter the Dog, Vampires Chris and Julie Artrip, Ella and Jack Artrip, along with Stitch and Bugs Bunny and Fry Guy #1 discuss the anticipated victory.

 The Artrips look around and notice that three of their teammates are not with them.

Julie Artrip: Where are Friend Bear, Wish Bear and Bedtime Bear?

Chris Artrip:  They wanted to prove the old adage.

Julie Artip: And that is?

Chris Artrip: They all snuck out to sh#t in the woods together.  Feels almost like a circle jerk of feces.

Julie Artrip:  They are revolting creatures aren’t they.

Chris Atrip:  You don’t know the half of it.
