OddHat Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Did Arthur Fonzarelli, minor psionic and occasional adventurer, and Bruce Wayne Jr., the fourth man to take up the mantle of the Bat, run a call girl service out of a morgue in 1982? Was a well known Boston socialite turned waitress one of their top courtesans? How could this be turned into a Champions scenario in your game world? Ideas?

Hermit Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Re: Wold Newton Scenario: Fonzie and Batman Ah, the super duo team the Nightshift, I remember them... determined to put an end to the ugliest aspects of prostitution, Fonzie and the Batman decide the only way to drive the pimps out for good is to drive them out of business by competing against them.

mattingly Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Re: Wold Newton Scenario: Fonzie and Batman Some pimping competition came from Elwood Blues with a mechanical hand (possibly stolen from Ash) after he had lost his fortunes to Billy Valentine. Clarence Beaks, however, was dispatched in a gorilla suit by Bruce Wayne Jr's former clock-hanging partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socialite waitress call girls in morgues? Am I not reading enough, not seeing enough movies, or not watching enough television? Or should I be happy that I haven't recognized any of the rest of this? Love the idea of the Fonz as a Wold-Newton psionic, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See these pages Re: the Batman and Fonzie section....: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Shift_%28film%29 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084412/ And Re: Elwood Blues going into competition with them see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Detroit http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085450/ With Billy Valentine, Clarence Beaks and the ape suit being found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trading_Places http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086465/ And as Oddhat already mentioned, Diane Chambers here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Chambers Who was Belinda Keaton in the first referenced item above. -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattingly Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Re: Wold Newton Scenario: Fonzie and Batman That ape suit originally came from Jim Belushi's character, and Bleushi and Keaton were costars in "Working Stiffs" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078711/ (trivia - Keaton's first TV "role" was as the stagehand that moved Mr. Roger's trolley) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clsage Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Re: Wold Newton Scenario: Fonzie and Batman My brain hurts. Wold Newton will do that to you....mine exploded long ago after my third (or was it fourth ) reading of Phillip Jose Farmers 'Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life' around the same time as I was reading 'James Bond: The Authorised Biography of 007' by John Pearson ( ). -Carl- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JmOz Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Re: Wold Newton Scenario: Fonzie and Batman Sad thing is...I could do something with this as part of a Darck Champions game Something akin to: A couple guys decide to start working the prostitution sceene, but clean: the girls are treated nice, prices are lower, etc... The mob does not like it any, cutting into there profits and some of there girls are jumping ship. So they target the guys operations, heroes get involved, maybe not knowing that the other guys are running this brothel, gets into a moral question on wether or not they should shut down the "clean" brothel of girls for breaking the law, or if it is better than what the mob has been doing, etc...

Was that the call girl service with the "professional lady" with the overbite so large that all her clients called her the shark? I remember when Fonzarelli first... Never mind.
