Dramatis Personae[edit]
Beginning of Fight: Coax | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Doubtless|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Coax: Let's put on a show for "the new kid" and maybe he will learn something. Worst case scenario I work up a sweat. |
Beginning of Fight: Cornerstone | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Waiting in the Wings|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Cornerstone: Boo! I think Coax was going easy on you. Let's see if you can handle Cornerstone. |
Beginning of Fight: Afterimage | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/What's My Line?|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Afterimage: LOL at you beating Cornerstone. I wrote up a new third act where you lose to AfterImage. |
Beginning of Fight: Young Zeroth | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Doubtless|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Young Zeroth: Are you guys even trying? Pretty sure I don't need my memories or all my powers for this battle. |
Problems with Pixels[edit]
Beginning of Fight: Makeshift: Protector | |
Cornerstone: Remind me again why you are running around with these jokers. Is it because you can beat them up? Sad really. |
Beginning of Fight: The 8-Bits | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The 8-Bits|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Makeshift: Uhoh! I don't know what these things are but they look like 8-bit versions of Torrent. A little help? |
Beginning of Fight: Torrent: Freelancer | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Torrent: Freelancer|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Torrent: I see we have both grown more powerful since our last encounter. I have no quarrel with you and you want no part of the new and improved Torrent. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Torrent: Freelancer|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Torrent: My benefactor demands the capture of this young Zeroth in exchange for my recent upgrade. Feel free not to but I am sure you will try and stop me. |
In Case of Fire[edit]
Beginning of Fight: #ZO3MG: Protector | |
#Z03MG: I already tweeted that I beat the snot out of you. And if it's on the internet it has to be true right? |
Beginning of Fight: Sunderlings: For Hire | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sunderlings: For Hire|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | #Z03MG: Sunderlings? What the heck are Sunderlings doing here? |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sawed Off|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | #Z03MG: We are going to have to resume our sparring later. And deal with this infestation before it gets out of hand. |
Beginning of Fight: Firerazer: Freelancer | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Firerazer: Freelancer|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Firerazer: Sometimes I don't even know why we bother with henchmen. With our newly enhanced powers any one of us should be able to capture Zeroth rather easily. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Firerazer: Freelancer|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Firerazer: I am getting paid quite handsomely for this. Have you ever considered switching sides? |

Beginning of Fight: Maser: Protector | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Cowabunga!!|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Maser: Okay Home Schoolers, time for a new plan. I am blasting everyone who is not one of us and then sorting it out later. |
Beginning of Fight: Kindling: For Hire | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Kindling: For Hire|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Kindling: It is almost time for employee evaluations. I really need to make a good impression on FireRazer. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Kindling: For Hire|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Kindling: Too bad for you. |
Beginning of Fight: Johnny Tinker: Robot Sculptor | |

Beginning of Fight: Firerazer: Freelancer | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Monkeyshines|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Firerazer: Step aside and let us take Zeroth. If not I am content to light you up. And blow you away like so much ash. |
Beginning of Fight: The Notch | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Notch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | The Notch: You kids keep getting bigger and stronger. It is about time we did the same thing. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Notch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | The Notch: So we went out and made a new friend... Although he goes way back with Zeroth and your teachers. |
Beginning of Fight: Sunder: Freelancer | |

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Torrent: Freelancer|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Torrent: Got anything funny to say before I power you down? |
End of Issue[edit]
The last panel contains the dialogue that was originally in the Ms. Modulus megabrawl. It has been added here to help complete the story.
Megabrawl Story: Ms. Modulus | |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Oh, Hi!|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: Okay...I know I have been like a jerk... ...Or whatever. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Oh, Hi!|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: But that's just me messing around. This is for reals. Zeroth needs our help. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Ms. Modulus|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: He was captured by this lady villain who goes by Ms. Modulus. My uncle and Zeroth fought her back with the Meanwhile Squadron. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Wiggle Room|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: She can sculpt things hard as rock or make her body as fluid as mercury. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Taunting|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: She has Zeroth - and in his young form he can't fully access his powers. Johnny Tinker tried to stop her... |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Saving Grab|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: But he got distracted... It's all my fault. |
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Strung Up|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] | Quickhit: It is not easy for me to ask for help... But Zeroth needs ours badly... |
