This is the sequel to "The Crisis" and "Existential Crisis" In this book, the Crisis ex-girlfriend gets super powers and swears revenge on him, working for the arch villain Doctor Gloom, whom the Crisis has upset from time to time. At the same time The Crisis, his wife Delphi, cohorts in crime Poison and Stiletto have been forced to flee the country and join Dr. Impossible where he has become the Supreme Dictator for Life in Thailand. Of course this prompts an all out superhero invasion funded by the multinational corporations Crisis and the gang have been waging war against. Hijinx ensue. Lots of humor, fast paced dialogue and action for those who enjoy a darker take on Superheroes and Villains. Excerpt:She actually tore the stripper pole in two and began to weave the remaining pieces in an Escrima pattern. I grabbed two knives and leapt into the fray. She wasn't just strong as hell, she was very well trained when she wasn't pissed off out of her mind. I was unable to get close enough to plunge a blade in, the metal batons dancing in her hands kept me playing defense, dodging and deflecting. Magenta was making her way back into the fight, trying to press through the crowd streaming towards the exits. Dr. Impossible had made sure it was known for the police and other services to ignore and hue and cry about tonight's events so we were free from any of those worries. Just the metahuman jewel thieves and the mysterious psychotic who had almost fried Stiletto. And maybe an unknown number of local mafia types to deal with. I smiled widely. This was going to be fun.I slashed at her, she smoothly leaned back then struck with both of her improvised staves. I barely ducked one and deflected the other with one of my daggers. I risked a kick only to have her nearly crush my ankle. Then she dropped both halves of the pole and gathered me up in a bear hug. She was even stronger than I thought, my kidneys and ribs took turns screaming at me as she crushed me hard against her. I was in serious danger of being cuddled to death. On the upside I had a great view of her spectacular cleavage.
