(no subject)
I'm dwelling on that Kon joining the Superbuddies idea again. And thinking--maybe if I just did comic snippets, instead of a continuous running thing? So I started scribbling out the ideas I have, and here is the cheap, crappy little script of the first one: Kon's interview with Max. I'm, uh, kind of posting this so people can give me feedback before I actually go to the trouble of drawing it out.
EDIT: made some adjustments, more feedback would be great :D
Kon: Thanks for seeing me, Sir, I promise you’ll be glad you did.
Max: Sir. I like that. Why doesn’t Sue call me “sir”?
L-Ron: Because she doesn’t respect you, O Beloved Leader.
Kon: Um. Anyway, Robin told me that Black Canary told him that Powergirl told her that you were looking for new members for you group. And I thought, hey, if you were trying to recruit Powergirl, I have a lot of the same powers she has, right? So, since Cadmus went AWOL and I’m kind of between jobs right now, and I thought I’d offer you a chance to hire me.
Max: "Hire?"
Kon: I have a ton of experience! Here, I brought a resume, and I have references.
Max: You brought references?
Kon: Yes, see, people I’ve worked with before-I have experience working alone and with teams-
Max: “Not the brightest crayon in the box, but he can hit pretty hard.”
Kon: What? Who wrote that? *grabs paper* Rob, I’ll kill him!
Max: “Please, please hire this idiot and get him out of Young Justice Headquarters, our building is not a homeless shelter.”
Kon: *facepalm* Et tu, Cassie? I told them this was serious!
Max: What does she mean, “get you out of their building?”
Kon: Well, I mean, this is a paying gig, right? That’s what I heard.
Max: What kind of super hero expects to be paid?
L-Ron: There’s Booster Gold, Sir.
Max: Don’t remind me. But I thought Supers would be above that sort of thing.
Kon: Look, do you have any idea how hard it is to get a job when you don’t have a social security number? And no job means no money, no money means you can’t pay rent…
Max: Wait, rent? Don’t you live with your dad?
Kon: My… who?
Max: Your dad, Superman!
Kon: *indignant* Superman is not my dad! He’s just, you know, the guy I was cloned from. Sort of.
Max: But, isn’t he your legal guardian?
Kon: My what? There was a guy back at Cadmus named Guardian, but he died. Though they did re-clone him, even though he asked not to be recloned and it was totally uncool. Do you want to talk to him? I’m not sure where he is right now…
Max: *pinches bridge of nose* No, no, I-look, will Superman, or anyone else for that matter, get mad and sue me-or melt my skull with heat vision-if you, say, get killed on a mission?
L-Ron: It’s heart-warming to know there are good people like you looking out for Superboy’s welfare, sir.
Kon: Uh, no. I'm pretty much on my own.
Max: Good enough for me. When can you start?
