     "STOP!!!!", a commanding voice cried.
     Rebel Yell turned to see a tall, muscular figure in a gaudy
costume.  His purple cape rippled ominously in the breeze, while his
orange and green spandex costume hurt Yell's eyes.
     Man, he thought, that thing's uglier than Rage's new duds in the
NEW WARRIORS.
     "Look at this," the mysterious figure intoned.  "Dangling sub-
plots, characters lost in space/time for no good reason, confused
relationships, countless new characters - who's writing this mess, 
anyway - Liefield?"
     The stranger waved his hand and a violet light enveloped the
area.  Suddenly, the heroes and villains were returned, slightly
the worse for wear due to their interdimensional journey.  "That's
better," the caped crusader muttered.  "Carry on, citizens."  He
turned and waved his hand again, opening another dimensional portal,
this one mauve in color.
     Yell found his tongue at last (it had been lying on the floor
after being severed by the sheer force of the portal; luckily, he
discovered a new mutant power which allowed him to reattach any
severed limbs).  "Wait!"  The newcomer turned to regard him with a
glare; at least, he assumed it was a glare - the mask made it hard to
tell.  "Who are you?"
     The stranger smiled (or so Yell supposed). "My name is... 
Continuity Champ!  You'll be seeing more of me in the future.  Partly
because I'm signed up to be next month's PLAYGIRL photo spread, but
also because I am destined to join the LNH in the future.  Also, 
expect a miniseries as well, giving complete details of my origin."
     With that, he turned again and was gone.
     Meanwhile, the not-quite-human finger tightened around the
laser rifle's trigger again.  An alien eye peered down its barrel
at its target - Dr. Killfile, one day to become the ravager of a
million worlds!

To be continued...

CONTINUITY CHAMP MINISERIES
  A four issue story detailing the origins of everyone's favorite
mystery man.  In addition, current plans call for a "unique retailing
gimmick" - each issue will be offered in four seperate styles:
   1) The Marvel Style - In which the origin is told, only to be
rewritten retroactively later.  Features minimal storytelling 
ability and artistic talent, but is projected to be the best seller.
   2) The DC style - In which the origin is told, only to be re-
written due to Crisis, then "retuned to the modern preferences",
then finally cancelled in mid-storyline due to slummping sales.
   3) The Image Style - In which the origin may or may not be told,
but doesn't that art look good?
   4) The Valiant style (AKA the RAI #0 style) - In which his origin
will be told in infinite detail for the next 2000+ years with good
story but pitiful art, thereby blowing any surprises the future may
hold.

If anyone posts articles tomorrow, could they please mail me a copy?
It'll be off the net by the time I get back.  Thanks!
