      It wouldn't be fair to have the Hood retcon things right unless I'd previously laid down clues to justify it.



    Quote:
    I had a story a long time ago where the Hood toyed with retcons just for the sole purpose of leaving the subject terrified and traumatized. Letting Hatman's team die horribly and then bringing them back with memory of it would do the job nicely.


The Hood rarely does things for a sole purpose.

I don't think the Hood could usually bring them back with their memory of another chain of events intact. He retrospectively changes continuity so it never happens. I'm sure he could find a way if neccessary though. Mumph, on the other hand, rewinds time and has the option of allowing subjects to rememeber that or not.

      It's really a "boss villains" club, but she may well have visited.



    Quote:
    Even more intriguing would be if Akiko sent her to meetings as her representative. In case someone there meant to kill her or something.


Well, Factor X sent the Mind's Eye (or her psionic projection) to represent him so it's quite feasible.

      You'll notice that Akiko Masamune was not present at the meeting.



    Quote:
    I can think of a variety of reasons. Perhaps they don't trust her entirely. Or maybe Chiaki's worries in my story were justified - that the other underworld types are shrinking Akiko's territory until she's not very effective anymore. Then again, maybe Akiko chose not to show up because she thinks this plan is stupid.


Neither Akiko nor Deadeyes were present simply because they weren't involved in the plot even as passive witnesses. Akiko has previously made clear her "alliance" with the LL. Deadeyes has made clear his "neutrality pact" with them and his disinterest in extending his influence beyond the boundaries of GMY.
