Subj: It did occur to me when I named the story that the Library wasn't mentioned.

    They aren't Dead, just Lee is! The Moon Public Library still continues to operate as it did when it's former head librarian was among the land of the living. All through they did have to deal with the IOL trying to repossess the Library but that was pretty much resolved eventually. Ok... It's still a problem. Cosmic Subpoenas, Frequent Material Centurian attacks, nasty voice mail messages. You know, the basic stuff. What to do after Lee dies is even written into the Moon Public Library's own charter since Lee does have a habit of getting himself offed. As far as I know, no one has gone into the Lair Mansion's File Room since Lee's passing & they really should \:\)


That sounds like a story that needs to come from you.

The last time I referenced the MPL it was business as usual. I think. Your last chapters on Lee and Co. left a few plots up in the air, around Lee's possible child and possible fate, and I have deliberqately avoided those strands so as not to confuse matters. But there's no reason I wouldn't bring in D.D. or ALFred if there was a good reason.

As you'll see next time, the Baroness hasn't forgotten what she saw in the room full of Hooded Hood plots. She's looking into it further. Had Untold Tales been an ongoing concern still rather than a bried renaissance I would certainly have covered the events when she marched into the MPL (or tried to) and demanded their full co-operation in researching everything the Hood would have been doing. That in turn would draw the attention of the cowled crime czar himself. Both of them in the Library would have been... interesting. It might even have provoked the return/resurrection of the Librarian himself to deal with it.

    In regards to Sally's question, "Does Ham-Boy create the meat he uses from himself?" It is complicated as stated. Also if there was a "manual" it would have been one written by Ham-Boy himself or member of his family. Actually if I really think about it: If there was a Ham-Boy manual, it would have most likely been written by Hogarth Albert "Al" Harris, Fred's Grandfather. Ham-Boy's powers don't start with him (that's mostly like a thing from his father, presummed dead Air Force pilot Roger McCorkle Harris) but Fred's desire to become Ham-Boy does start with Grandpa Al. Fred's original training for becoming a Super Heroes is partly based off of the training his grandfather received when he was in WWII. It's also where the hame Ham-Boy comes from. But all those things are for another time.


I suspect Fred was being flippant about the manual.

I also suspect he's not quite sure how to relate to Sally. Her usual flirtatious, brazen, pushy persona is probably one he doesn't cope well with. Her current brittle facade of trying to act as she normally does must be even harder for him. But because he's a nice guy he's trying hard to take care of her anyway.



    Quote:
    Where does the Meat come from? Ham-Boy doesn't exactly know. The current theory among the Harris family is that the meat comes from another dimension. A dimension filled with prepared meat. The "Meat Vision" Ham-Boy uses opens a small crack between the dimensions which allows meat flows through. As far as Ham-Boy knows he can't insert anything into that dimension only extract things from it.


Sounds like its toime for a major Ham-Boy series that gives us the answers, culminating in the ALL-HAM-BOY CROSS-TIME TEAM-UP ANNUAL!
