-So- looking forward to the next one.
Bringing Vel out of her restless retirement? Awesome.
Superheroines whose superpowers consist of "I'm a Disney Princess" -- even awesommer.
But this?
"But why," declaimed Jackie, "is the rum gone? There's the real question."
Ok, that's just evil.

Well, she was going to get one.
Oh, boy. Nothing is ever good when superheroics gets personal.
But it's good to see Vel having a good day for once, as well as seeing some of the people she knows from the life.
And, in annoying nitpickiness (you can count on me to do this, I'm sorry to say):
several of the state's own superhumans have applied for membership to The Super Patriots, Inc. at one time or another.\
I hate that key. So close to the "Enter" key, you can't help but hit it every so often.
pausing the spew invective that would make a supervillain blush.
Presumably you changed your mind somewhere in here, and the "the" didn't get changed to a "to" in the process.

Flashes kept going off from a discrete distance
I had to look that one up to make sure of whether it's right or wrong. Discreet/discrete always confused me.

One wonders when the collected superheroes of the world are just going to rise up and overthrow Marketing. It's not like *any* of them actually like the slimy bastards. One also thinks that declaring war on someone that just wants to be left *alone* is really the wrong message to send to the rest of their charges.
Plus, Velveteen's gonna kick all their asses.

And as long as Marketing controls all the spin, nobody's going to try that. For that matter, as long as the rules favor TSP Inc., open revolt is fairly unlikely.
Finally, I'm not sure that nobody likes them. We know Vel doesn't like them. Aaron doesn't show enough for me to decide whether he dislikes them, or thinks of them as annoying but necessary. That leaves a lot of people whose opinions I haven't heard at all.

You missed it. It's time to catch up.
