Re: Super City

 

No Consequence Repair & Construction Co.- Soooo much property damage. Just one battle, and a city can be changed forever and the hero left with pangs of guilt that he didn't do enough (Or perhaps shouldn't have used local skyscrappers like the bumpers in a pinball machine). Well, that would be the case, but thanks to NCR&C Co, that hardly ever happens. This hardy band of master repair men can fix that damage lickity split, or at least in time before the next adventure. Using the latest in "Off Panel" engineering, they can make it seem like yesterday's mishaps are ancient history!

Re: Super City

 

How could we have forgotten this one?

 

Carstairs Coffee - This is perhaps the only establishment with more locations in Super City than the 24-7 Mini-Mart. There's at least one in every block, including the residential blocks; in downtown, building codes call for a minimum of one Carstairs location in every building. Despite the seeming market saturation, they seem to do enough business to support all of these locations. People get into shouting matches and flamewars over which location is best ("The one in my next-door neighbors' garage!" "No, the number 3 booth at Police Central!")

Super Town (with apologies to Jack Kirby)

 

Introduction

 

Super Town is probably the oddest of Super City's garden suburbs. I say "probably" because while it's the only one that's a bucolic wilderness inhabited by talking dinosaurs and mutated "Science Hippies" who live in giant trees when they're not traversing the neighbourhood in gigantic "Go-Wagons" armed to the teeth with "Strike-Missiles," the other suburbs have their quirks, too.

 

Location:

 

You know that Top Secret "Cadmaean Project" buried deep underneath the city? You don't? Well, I guess that's reasonable. Anyway, go there. And then go through this one door, like, it's bolted and green and has a window on it? And you're there. No, I can't draw you a map. Yes, it is confusing how Super Town could be just outside a secret base thousands of feet underground. Look, just go with it.

 

History:

 

Well, there was this scientist, and he used to hang out with these kids who were the sidekicks of this street level superhero. Or maybe he was one of the kids, and then he grew up? But then shouldn't the superhero be old? Maybe he's a clone! And then there was this DNA stuff, and a power-mad dictator from another planet. There was a miniature planet full of movie monsters in there too, somehow. And, anyway, there you go.

 

Demographics:

 

A Cast of Thousands!

 

Events

 

 

 

In the Age That's Coming, Ultraman's pal, Spider Olsen Jerusalem likes to poke his nose around the place. And then Ultraman shows up! And a "Strike-Missile" hits him! And Superman fights a Go-Wagon. Helped by the Forever Kids! And a radioactive clone of Spider Olsen Jerusalem from the "Evil Assembly Plant" gets teleported into the Project to wreak havoc! And a clone of the Neighbourhood Guard fights him! Okay, I admit that it's a bit "incoherent." But there's Kirby crackles!

 

Famous Residents

 

 

They're all famous, baby. But especially Don Rickles.

 

Special Attractions

 

 

Explosions!

How could people have not thought of this;

 

The Time for a Change Phone Booth located near the dark alley. A perfect place for that hero who needs to get changed quickly and discretely. Notice the sign: Town not responsible for lost articles of civilian clothing or revealed Secret Identity resulting from some bum finding your wallet after you change here.

The DigBig digging company- One wouldn't think a company that digs holes would be so profitable. But the DigBig company gets dozens of requests a month. Weither it's a tunnel or a hole in the ground large enough to fit a skyscraper. Digbig will get it done quickly and discretely. What we do with the dirt is none of your buisness.
