Midnight Spectre 2.0: How many have we seen now?

Cowgirl Jack: 257.

Registered Member #552: Gob, some of these "heroes" are so lame. The Ghost Unicylcer, I ask you. Can't we just recall Brit and Di Bat Pho?

Wednesday: I don't think they would be too happy. They are on their honeymoon.

Ace: Whose stoopid idea was this membership drive anyway?

JLR:

Ace: Oh yeah...

MS2: Let's get this over with. Who's next?

CJ: Hero 258 - The Ice Cream Man.

RM 552: The Ice Cream Man!?! You're kidding right?

Ace: I don't know, some ice cream wouldn't go down too badly about now.

Wed: Does anyone else hear Greensleeves?

Suddenly a multi-coloured mass of thick liquid pours into the room.

JLR: Ewww

The liquid morphs into a humanoid shape. That of The Ice Cream Man! He strikes a dramatic pose.

ICM: Greetings fellow heroes!

RM552: You're kidding, right?

ICM: [standing normally] Yeah, just joking. How do you do, I'm...

JLR: The Ice Cream Man.

ICM: Oh yeah. Right. Sorry, I hate interviews.

CJ: It's OK Mr. Man, just relax. Please tell us why you would be an assest to the JLR?

ICM: Well my body is made of 100% ice creamy goodness. I can generate a variety of flavours and control the consistancy of my body - from melted, as you saw earlier, to ice-rock hard. This gives me the ability to shape shift, like so...

The Ice Cream Man, transforms one of his fists into a giant hammer, stretches his body across the room, turns into a giant ice cream ball, then back to human form.

ICM: I can also create ice cream constructs, like this....

He creates a shield out of rum and raisen, zooms accross the room on a vanilla ice cream sled, creates a raspberry ripple cage and follows up with a banana ice cream castle.

ICM: I'm also great for summer barbeques and children's parties. So what do you think?

Ace: Delicious...

ICM: Pardon?

MS2: [nudging Ace] What my colleague meant to say was that we are interviewing a lot of applicants today. We will be contacting successful applicants towards the end of the week.

ICM: Great. Looking forward to it.

CJ: Thank you for coming today.

ICM: Thanks for having me. Bye now!

After the would-be JLRer leaves the room...

CJ: Well that one didn't go too badly.

RM 552: Except he's left melting ice cream all over the floor. Who's going to clean that up?

MS2: Sit down, Ace...

CJ: OK, next on the list is... Stick Insect Man.

JLR: *sigh*

Wed: Next!
