The Weevil:
Some of you may be wondering "How did the Specials come to be?". Well, the group was the brainchild of Ted and Tim Tilderbrook, better known to the world as the Strobe and Minute Man.
Power Chick:
The original five were friends before being teammates. Ted and Tim - he was Minute Boy back then - Ms. Indestructible, the Weevil, and Stretchy Boy!
Ms. Indestructible:
Stretchy Boy joined the group when we were around for, uh... about what, a year?
Minute Man:
About a year.
Ms. Indestructible:
Stretchy Boy had stretching powers. It's a... it's a pretty common superpower where he was from, up in the northwestern states.
Minute Man:
Tacoma.
Ms. Indestructible:
Something about the fluoridation in the water.
Minute Man:
Yeah. Unfortunately, the same chemicals that gave him his superpowers gave him a type of mouth cancer and he was dead in six months. The same thing happened to Captain Elastic, Flagpole Lad...
Ms. Indestructible:
Gooey Stan.
Minute Man:
Like a Holocaust of rubbery people.
The Weevil:
Our next member was Mr. Smart, who claimed to be the world's most intelligent man.
Power Chick:
Then came Eight, the hero with eight faces. Some claim the CIA was behind the mysterious fusion of eight consciousnesses into one.
The Weevil:
Eight was followed in rapid succession by U.S. Bill and his superstrength.
Power Chick:
The anti-matter-blasting bad boy, Amok.
The Weevil:
And Power Chick, who has the ability to mutate her body into any material that she touches, whether it be wood, metal, or heck, a Fruit Roll-Up.
Power Chick:
I'd be yummy then. Next came Deadly Girl, who has the ability to enter the world of the dead and then reappear anywhere she wants.
The Weevil:
And the shape-shifting Alien Orphan, whose ship crash-landed on Earth. Alien Orphan's body was originally a green globule. But little by little, our extraterrestrial pal has been able to take on what's essentially a human form.
Power Chick:
This is the group that has had such keen victories as recently saving the island province of San Felipe from a flock of murderous pterodactyls, and last fall, stopping the Anal Slug from ruining the lives of any more senior citizens.
The Weevil:
And so now, we boldly enter a new chapter in Specials history. I, for one, have a feeling that Stretchy Boy is smiling from above. Or he... he would be if... if he had a mouth.
