The Dave Signal!

This is what I get for daring to mention I was bored, isn't it?

Hey Justice League, there's a bunch of giant monsters rampaging around, furiously humping buildings into rubble. This is supposed to be your thing, isn't it? Get out there and save some fleeing citizens.

[The video straightens as he stands up. The bug circles overhead and he glances down at the camera.] So many at once? Then something's funneling them here somehow. Could be... oh SHIT, hold on--

[There's an angry screech and a violent jostling of the camera and suddenly the roof he'd been standing on is not there anymore. The phone is quickly attached to his hip and can see the man clinging to the fourty-foot insect's legs. He draws up his pistol again and fires, this time at the powerful muscles behind one of the wings. The creature shrieks and goes into a tailspin, and all hell breaks loose in a crash-landing that leaves the camera staring up at the sky and one spasmodically-twitching wingtip.]

[There's a long silence, and then finally:]

...ugh, GOD that sucked...

Nngh...

[The phone leaves the ground and Gordon is again front and center, this time splattered with greenish insect goo and trying to ignore this fact as hard as he can.]

You know, I wanted to talk to you about that. Misery, was her name? What was Joachim talking about when he mentioned people getting eaten? [Pause.] Wait, is the building-humper still there?

[He shifts in his half-sprawl, the background shifting to include one sickly-twitching bug leg with segments the length of golf clubs.]

So... unconfirmed. Right. He also mentioned creating some kind of toaster-golem out of one of his own minions. You know, that sounded less insane in my head. You think that transformation might have something to do with this?

[He casts a glance back over his soulder, ostensibly to the pestilent-looking bug he just beat up.]

Yeah, that's a pretty good way of putting it. It's probably not her then, but I can't believe this is all a coincidence.

[He takes off his glasses to look at the splatter, and considers...] I'll be right back. Gonna go collect a sample.

[And for the next few seconds, the camera looks away but he can hear some screeching and angry grumbling. It's probably better not to ask.]
