Close Up of Mike Donohue sitting at the chair position of a board table. On the table next to him is a shopping bag, several sheets of paper, and a pen.

Mike: Alright, now that were all here, let me cut straight to the chase: Earlier today, Alex Berki asked me to write a short comic using the word "Random" as both a jumping off point, and the overall theme.

Same as previous panel

Mike: Now as most of you know, I go to you guys first for all my ideas, and today will be no different. What I'm looking for is good, solid, but brief stories.

Same angle, Mike shows off a small rain stick that he has pulled from the bag

Mike: And because of after what happened last meeting, I've decided to go out and buy a "talking stick" as it seems its the only real way to keep you guys from turning this board room into that saloon at the end of "unforgiven"

Off Panel Voice: That's a stupid reference.

Mike: - Point is, the stick was $1.95, but I'm willing to let you guys pay me back in ideas. So-

Above the board room table, looking down, who Mike is actually talking to is revealed. The table takes up most of the panel and resembles something that the members of the justice league would meet at. Around the table there is a well-to-do Hispanic man with a fine mustache, smoking from a cigar. He is wearing the traditional armor of Iron Man except for his face. This man is actually a mang, Iron Mang. Seated next to him are the rest of the Mexican Avengers: (I'll leave what they look like to you) Captain Mexico (Captain America), Hombre de Hormiga (Ant-Man), and the Incredible Armotoste (Hulk). Seated next is a group of five or six sixteen or seventeen year old boys with punkish and scene haircuts, then a group of cute-like girls, then there is a 9th grade Alex Berki, Josh Stenkamp, Andrew altobelli, and Mike Donohue, and finally after that "The Man who Upset the Universe", and whatever other characters you would like to see here.

Mike: Whos first?
