Sidekicks ch 22 - 30

Ch 22 pg 248
The bladder guy calls himself Savior and confirms he killed the justice platoon. Doc mighty and the others. He says he's freed society of the tyranny of these so called heros. They were playing catch and release with villains to keep their movie deals and merch selling. All the while innocent lives were lost.  The Savior is here to punish people.  That's why he killed beef chief.  Sam starts to say something in beef chief's defense but thinks better of it so as to not get exploded by the 

Ch 23 of 255
Savior starts blowing up people as he names their petty crimes.  Sam goes after him and ends up in fire.  Pretty sure he's made a horrible mistake and is going to die.  He is hit by something hard and fast and does not die.  It's kaptain Nazi.  Savior decides to test kapitain Nazi.  He shoots at some reports to see if Nazi tries to save them.  He does.  He dives in front of the bullets and saved the reporters.  He d ies in Sams arms.

Ch 24  pg 263
Sam punches Chuck in the face and explains that he did so because Chuck faked the beef chief.footage that initially had them.going after beef chief.  Sam is going off on everyone and he is o u t out.  Anna follow him and suggests they get drunk.  Sam says he needs to check on his kid.  But he promises he'll call amd.sje.gives him her card and they walk away.

Ch 25 pg 273
Sam goes to see Corey.  At first his ex doesn't let him in.  Then she agrees to let him in for five minutes.  Corey is watching the news and it's horrible.  Savior has taken over a big church and has created a bunch of magma dogs to punish law breakers.  Brian is one of.those law breakers.  He comes in and talks about how he ran a red light and a magma dog came after him.  He thinks he.lost it.  But then there's screaming from Corey's room.

Ch 26 pg 281
There's a magma dog outside of Corey's window.  Somehow I always imagined Brian living in a condo that was high up in a big building.  Guess not.  It's confirmed to be a house.  A house with other windows.  A window that the magma mut jumps through.  BRian is not a sniveling coward.  Sam jumps on the firedog and his pants light on fire.  The magmapups feel pain as Sam and Brian dare able to stab it and while it's writhing in pain they're able to get away.  Sam uses his power and somehow ends up smashing the lava dog.  Maybe it was the thing that Sam made disappear earlier.  Corey's real worried about all the other people that are getting attacked by fire monsters.  Sam suddenly knows exactly what he's gotta do.  He tells Laura and Brian to get Corey out of town until all of this is over.  Also, can he borrow some cab fare.

ch 27 pg 292
Sam goes to Anna's.  They're gettin the band back together.  Randy's been hiding in the back of Anna's place the whole time.  What a wierdo.  They go back to talk to Chuck.  Sam wants a super suit.  They don't have another super suit and his is burnt to shit.  Randy and Anna have theirs.  So it's not all bad news.  They're gonna go get the Savior.  He has a wall of fire around the cathedral he's hanging out in.  Sam says pretty confidently that the Savior is going to let them in.  Anna asks if there's money in the budget for a cab cause she does not feel like riding the bus again.  Chuck's all coy about it and says "Oh, I think we can do better than that."

ch 28 pg 299
They have a batmobile and they drive it to the asylum cause they heard that Savior is heading there to kill the criminally insane.  Chuck shoots a lot of lavamutts with a really big shotgun.  The two guards get killed by magmamutts.  Sam goes into the asylum and tells the crimnals what's coming.  They run away.  Sam and Chuck are having a conversation as to whether this is good or bad.  Then some exploding starts happening.  I'm assuming this is the Savior and that super bad stuff is gonna happen now.

ch 29 pg 315
Sam calls Savior Jim.  He's figured out that Savior is former sidekick Jim Flamable.  The rest of the chapter is them talking about the old days and debating the goodness or badness of the Justice league.  At one point Chuck starts thinking about shooting him, but the gun melts before chuck can do anything.  Savior says the reason he knows all the things about all the people that have done these petty crimes is cause he has Calcu-Lass on his side.  Randy has a whooe thing about how Calcu-Lass could totally get it and Jim's like "we're together" and Randy feels bad about what he said for like a microsecond.  But then Savior talks about having tied her up and put electrodes in her head.  That's not a good relationship.  Jim has gone crazy.   He throws a fire ball at Chuck.

ch 30 pg 324
Jim continues to have a meltdown and says something like "WE'RE NOT FRIENDS ANYMORE!!!!"  Then he throws a big ass fireball at them.  Sam uses his powers to summon something wet to protect them.  None of them are dead.  They look around at the aftermath of the fireball and Savior is gone.  They look around more and there's a bunch of what look to be burned out bowls around them.  Anna deduces that they used to be turtles.  They're now surrounded by dead burned turtles.  Anna's like, we'll it's good you can control your powers better now.  But Sam's like, no, I really can't.  Randy says Chuck's dead.  Chuck is not dead.  But he is in super bad shape and he's coughing up blood.  Chuck suggests they regroup and go after Savior later.  Randy mentions that Savior is going to destroy the city to get back at them for not being his friend.  Chuck says they should go after him then.  Anna mentions that Savior didn't really lose it until she made him sneeze and he almost lost the big stupid helmet he wares.  They recognize the helmet.  It used to blong to Mr. Alagator.  He used to be a bad guy with two alagators.  Then one day he comes along wearing that helment and he has a thousand Alagators and he destroyed the city.  But after he was caught he claimed the helment was controlling him.  So if they can get the helmet off the Savior maybe he'll be less crazy and go back to being good ole Jim.  They're gonna go do that.  But their batmobile is all messed up, how are they gonna get there?  Butterflies, that's how.  Randy's power finally works and thousands of butterflies come along to be their form of transportation.
