Description
The Fab Four No. 8 – Invada and the Fab 5. Its finally feels like
spring time in the city of Philadelphia. This Saturday, many of
its citizens are out shopping, jogging or just enjoying the long
awaited harm, sunny environment. The resident hero, Ultimate
Power is no exception, making his daily patrol of the area a
few hours earlier than usual. Typically, the calm is disturbed by
a call for help in the distance. On investigation, Ultimate Power
discovers the problem. The city's draw bridge is up, but dropping
rapidly on to a passing ship in the river. The ship will not be
able to stop in time. Relieved this is an easy emergency, the
agent of justice rushes to stop the ship, but notices his ultimate
speed is not so ultimate at the moment. Out of nowhere, a
crimson blur shots by and heads toward the bridge, but who ever
it is, can only lift one end of the double side. Ultimate Power
continues his efforts to stop the endangered ship. Using most
of his ultimate strength, he holds the vessel's bow, and pushes in
its opposite direction of travel. The ship stops a few yards short
of the half section of the draw bridge which had fallen. He
sees that one of the bridge's massive hydraulic lifts was severely
damaged, and make temporary repairs. Then Ultimate Power
is approached by a young woman, dressed in a red costume.
She calls herself Invada, and politely apologizes, but she is new
to the superhero business, and didn't realize stopping the ship
made more sense than pushing up half a bride. Then she flies
off before Ultimate Power can say a word. He is mildly concerned
about his lack of speed and strength, but feeling better, and he
proceeds to check on the ship's crew. The following month its
time for the Fab Four Meeting in Philly. All are well in Europe, Asia
and Africa, according to Falcon Heart and Tecnicus, as are North
America, Mexico, the Hawaiian Islands and South America by
Arctic Wolf and Ultimate Power's report. As the team is about
to return to their respective homes, Ultimate Power mentions his
encounter with the young Invada. Surprisingly all of the other Fab
members recount similar meetings with this strange new hero in
different parts of the globe. She aides Arctic Wolf in a bank
robbery in Vancouver using similar powers as himself. Tecnicus
is helped by her with a disabled plane over Rome, while Falcon
Heart recalls Invada with wings lending a hand with a rock slide
in a small town near the Swiss Alps. Fearing this is much more
than a coincidence Ultimate Power head's to the near-by
communication station to check with other heroes, but suddenly
feels weakened. The other Four feel the strange sensation as
well, just as Invada enters the meeting room. Wondering why
the alarms haven't been tripped, Invada explains why she's
there and how her powers work. She tells the team she is the
daughter of a geneticist, who was altered before birth. She can
read the bio-energy of males and “barrow' there power and/or
abilities at will. The process leaves the donor temporally drained,
but she gains their strength until she leaves or breaks the bond.
The Four Base alarms didn't sound because she also retains some
of the Fab's DNA signatures. The doors open thinking its one of
the team. Invada also proclaims her intention to join the Fab
Four as their fifth member. All are shocked, and Tecnicus tells
Invada, he started the Fab Four after a creature named Ynot
the Terrible threatened to destroy life on Earth. They remained
a team because of the brotherhood they shared. The Fab
isn't currently looking for new members. Invada holds out her
hand to Tecnicus and asks for permission to join again, which
he then falls to the floor. Ultimate Power rushes to his son's
aide while the others move on Invada, but she creates an
expanding bubble shield which knocks Falcon Heart and the
Arctic Wolf back against a wall. Ultimate Power fires his
optic beams, but is unable to penetrate her shield. For a
third time, Invada asks the team for permission to join their
ranks. The three members astonishingly agrees, then the
teen marvel recovers. The Fab members explain to Tecnicus
how much better it would be with Invada on the team.
Puzzled, he disagrees, and tries to use his powers on the
intruder, but this time she touches Tecnicus, who then
submits. Invada then calls a meeting of the new Fab Five,
and announces their first mission will be to save the citizens
of Philadelphia from themselves. They have become too
complacent with their meaningless lives, and need to focus
on their new Sovereign...Invada. Philadelphia was once the
capital of America, and it will be again, under the rule of the
Fab Five. If Arctic Wolf, Falcon Heart, Ultimate Power and
Tecnicus have all fallen to the will of Invada, how will she be
stopped, and how is she able to control them? Answers will be
revealed in the next informative issue of The Fab Five?

I don't want to spoil the ending...this is only a two parter. If I'm lucky, I'll finish the last part and submit it on Tuseday. You'll have to wait until then.

I've had Pyj around since 1986 (I found the first drawing of him), but I didn't get 'round to the Pyj World
project until...him. He's more special than he knows.

The villain, Invada, was based on a person I know. I altered the story early in its formation, but I've since returned it to its
original version. Hope you like it when you read it.
