If that is indeed what you're asking about then, Hmmm... other than that nobody much liked the idea, I don't recall a lot about it. It was during a time when people were all upping each other for "big changes" with each story... Cities being destroyed, the moon blowing up, that kind of thing. At one point Jarvis decided to write an end to the traditional Lair Legion HQ and said that we were stationed in a flying headquarters. Nobody really warmed to the idea, and it disappeared rather quickly. I think, in trying to explain the idea to people, he mentioned something about transporters getting people up and down from it. And it was maybe kind of zeppelin-like. Someone else may have a better recollection than I do. On the flip side, we've just passed our 9th anniversary with the Parodyverse! Congrats to everyone. | ||

Jarvis did a storyline in which Paradopolis was destroyed and replaced with New Parody City. The Lair Mansion was likewise destroyed. NTU-150 built the flying LAir Fortress to Jarv's specifications. There were the usual Enty-technology jokes and implications that Lisa may have skimped on the budget for the flying P-O-S. Most of the LL hated the HQ (in continuity as well as out of it). It was ultimately blown up by - I think - the Parody Master in the same storyline that restored Paradopolis and established that the Lair Mansion was back and expanded. | ||

I always wanted to reveal that it wasn't as blown up as we thought and somebody had stashed it somewhere as a back-up headquarters or somesuch. It'd be cool if you brought it back! | ||

Subject: Next question: So was the Lair Fortress "in continuity" or not? That is, do the characters remember it? Thanks again [Re: killer shrike] Posted Thu Sep 20, 2007 at 06:52:51 am EDT | |
