This is Part II of the Election Day Special. Last time, defenses on Nok did not go as smoothly as expected, as the Arsonist escaped with the Indigo Central Power Battery, while Frenzy distracted Dragnarok and company at the cost of his own life. It does little as Dragnarok immediately realizes their destination is where the White Lantern Power Battery is, apparently beneath Coast City. But right now, we're focusing in on the Misfits side quest. So how is that story going to wrap up? Read on to discover...

(Our story resumes in Central City, where the battle against Doctor Sivana, and things are not going well. Rhino has plowed through AMAZO and Hawkgirl, Beetle has netted Spider Ham, and Doctor Fate is barely able to defeat the powers of the Seven Deadly Sins in Doctor Sivana's command.)

Spider Ham: (Seeing they're about to die) Anybody got a plan?!

Doctor Fate: I may have one. I just hope he can get this message.

(With that, we transition to what looks like a warehouse, because it is one, owned by Punisher to house the Battle Van and his operations, as well as Lobo's Space Hog, while he's in town. But this time, he's got unexpected guests in the form of Lobo, Draaga, Belial Aether, Booster Gold, and Chang Tzu are all checking their equipment in case Bane and company show up.)

Lobo: Man this is getting boring.

Belial Aether: Calm yourself, Lobo. I have a feeling we won't be waiting for long.

(And of course just as Belial says that, Bane and company arrive outside, and start trying to break into the Punisher's garage, which prompts Chang Tzu to hide)

Punisher: Bane'll need some hell of a lot of luck to get in here. That door is titanium reinforced

Belial Aether: It's more Eclipso I'm worried about.

Punisher: Good point.

(Just as the group is getting ready to defend, Belial Aether gets a telepathic message from someone, and as he answers we transition to the battle in Central City, where Doctor Fate is trying to reach Belial Aether)

Belial Aether: What is it?

Doctor Fate: Belial, we need assistance.

Belial Aether: I'm kind of stuck here, Kent. Bane's probably minutes away from trying to break down the garage door.

Doctor Fate: You know what I mean, Belial. We need him.

Belial Aether: No. I swore on my father's will I would never use that ability.

Doctor Fate: I know of your oath, it was to never use that ability unless absolutely necessary, which you did when Dragnarok nearly killed himself to make sure he was still alive.

Belial Aether: (Thinking about it, then with a sigh) Good point. And it's not like you can call him back on your own, with his soul-body separation thing. Alright then, let's do this.

Doctor Fate: Good.

Booster Gold: Um... who are you talking to?

Belial Aether: Doctor Fate. Needs my help with something. Everybody stand back. (Seeing everyone is a safe distance, then to Doctor Fate) Kent, you'd better be right about this.

Doctor Fate: I know I am. (Holds his hand up as it glows with golden mystic energy) Amun Ra...

Belial Aether: (Reacting in kind, but with green energy) Amun Dei...

Belial Aether and Doctor Fate: Suweiya Harou, Tup Sin Mas Ibet Baya, Inmaat Tipinsu Piqet Sitsuei, Yatuwei, Yatuwei, Yatuwei!

If you can guess where this spell is from, or what it's approximating rather, good for you!

(As Belial Aether and Doctor Fate finish their incantation, we finally see the battle unfolding in Central City, Spider Ham, Hawkgirl, AMAZO, Beetle, Rhino, and Doctor Sivana are battling one another, and Doctor Sivana, Rhino, and Beetle are winning so far. Hence why Doctor Fate called in Belial Aether's assistance, as just as they finish their incantation, the ground begins to shake. And as it does, two burly pale arms emerge from the ground, grabbing Beetle and Rhino before tossing them into the Seven Deadly Sins, summoned by Doctor Sivana to protect him, as the figure is finally revealed, it's Solomon Grundy)

Hawkgirl: (Shocked) Grundy...?

Solomon Grundy: (Seeing Hawkgirl and the rest) Bird-nose?

Hawkgirl: But... how...? I... (Remembering Doctor Fate is here, then about to bash his helmet in) What did you do?!

Doctor Fate: We needed the assistance. Don't worry, this isn't like the last time Grundy was resurrected. That's the same Grundy who almost killed Icthultu.

Hawkgirl: (Remembering what Grundy said upon seeing her) You had better be right about this.

Solomon Grundy: (Seeing Doctor Fate) Magician? What Grundy doing here?!

Doctor Fate: It's a long story, Grundy. We'll explain later. Right now we need your help.

Solomon Grundy: (Seeing Doctor Sivana, Rhino, and Beetle) Tell Grundy no more. (To Doctor Sivana) Scar Eye! Stop hurting Grundy's friends, or GRUNDY CRUSH!

Doctor Sivana: You've got to be kidding me. The zombie? Really? Your ace in the hole is a zombie?

Solomon Grundy: (Now visibly angry at being called a zombie) Enough! GRUNDY CRUSH!

(With that, Solomon Grundy leaps right into the battle, breaking up the duo of Rhino and Beetle, almost crushing Beetle's legs and knocking him out, before tussling specifically with Rhino, nearly crushing him into a wall as AMAZO, Doctor Fate, and Spider Ham start focusing back in on Doctor Sivana and the Seven Deadly Sins, a battle which ends rather quickly surprisingly, as Doctor Fate uses his magic to contain the Seven Deadly Sins long enough for AMAZO and Hawkgirl to beat the tar out of the Doctor himself before Spider Ham webs him up, along with Beetle and Rhino before pulling wreckage off of Big Wheel before webbing him up as Doctor Fate pulls the Seven Deadly Sins from Doctor Sivana.)

Spider Ham: And that's them handled. Let's get them to the Watchtower and lock'em up

Doctor Fate: (Recontaining the Seven Deadly Sins) We'll leave that to you. First we have to get these seven back to the Rock of Eternity.

AMAZO: I'll drop them. Then catch up with you.

Doctor Fate: (Handing AMAZO the Seven Deadly Sins) Agreed.

(While this is going on, we transition back to Dakota, where Static, Rubberband Man, Gear, and Deadpool are battling Ocean Master, Doctor Phosphorus, Bullseye, and Ebon, each team trying to keep Condiment King in their court. Ocean Master, still magnetized to the garbage can from last time attempts to stab Deadpool with a trident, and actually succeeds, but he pulls it out as the wound regenerates before throwing the trident back of Ocean Master, as it gets magnetized to his head, causing Deadpool to just start laughing at how ridiculous he looks as Static battles Bullseye, magnetizing literally everything the assassin throws at him, sticking them all to Ocean Master in the process before Gear is able to contain Bullseye by throwing a Mark II Zap Cap, which wraps up Bullseye with the contained metal bands, allowing Static to magnetize him to Ocean Master, the combined weight keeping both contained as Deadpool just continues laughing.)

Static: Hey Wade! You actually going to help us or just keep laughing your tail off?

Deadpool: I can't help it! This is too funny!

(As Deadpool continues to not get the point, Doctor Phosphorus enters the battle, throwing a fireball at Deadpool, who doesn't get hit because he's bent over laughing, only for the wall to actually collapse, only hitting Deadpool and somehow leaving Condiment King unharmed)

Deadpool: (Emerging from a pile of bricks, then to the author) Real subtle, Dragon. Real subtle.

(As the the three of them start focusing on Doctor Phosphorus, we see Rubberband Man dueling Ebon.)

Rubberband Man: You can't keep doing this, Ivan. There is a way back from this darkness!

Ebon: You and I both know that this society won't let us go back! Why do you think I'm working with this clown? Take back the power they'd never let us have!

Rubberband Man: (Knowing Ebon is lying, then punching him in the face) Quit trying to spin this into a social justice issue. We both know that's not how you think. The only person you want in power is yourself.

Ebon: (Getting back up from the blow, then chuckling) Should've figured you'd figure me out, brother.

(With that, Ebon attempts to resume his battle with Rubberband Man, but is interrupted by a flaming bolt from Doctor Phosphorus, the light from which effects Ebon's leg)

Doctor Phosphorus: That's as close as you get to pickle head over there. (Looking at Ebon's partially weakened leg) Did you really think I didn't know light was your weakness? The doctor who created the cure for you "Bang Babies" was a colleague of mine. I know every trick to defeating all of you.

(As Doctor Phosphorus rattles on, Static attempts to shock him, but it seems to have no effect, just as Doctor Phosphorus turns around and attempts to torch Static)

Doctor Phosphorus: Perhaps you should have paid attention in science class! Phosphorus doesn't conduct electricity!

Deadpool: True. But you know what would conduct electricity real well? A copper bullet!

(With that, Deadpool shoots Doctor Phosphorus with, just as he said, a copper bullet, which lodges in Sartorius' somehow not aflame bones. Seeing the opportunity, Static sends an electric pulse through the bullet and straight into Doctor Phosphorus, shorting out the living nervous system that is holding his body together at least long enough for Gear to deploy Back-Pack to contain the living consciousness using an airtight lead container so he can't create a new body.)

Deadpool: And that is how you fight with science!

(But just as Deadpool starts gloating, Ebon stretches his arm and knocks him out.)

Ebon: Forgot about me, didn't you?

(Realizing what needs to be done, Static pulls down his goggles and heads into the air)

Static: Everybody cover your eyes!

(And just as he gets that warning out, Static releases a huge flash of light, just as Gear and Rubberband Man cover their eyes preventing them from being blinded as Static grabs up Condiment King and Deadpool before flying out of there, followed shortly by Gear and Rubberband Man as Ebon retreats into the shadows. Fast forward a few minutes, and we see Deadpool awaken in what looks like an abandoned gas station, because it is one, where Static, Gear, and Rubberband Man appear to be making their next move with Condiment King unconscious on a couch in the corner, as they realize he's awake)

Deadpool: (Realizing where he is) Wait, you guys are based out of a gas station?

Static: Urban decay working in our favor.

Deadpool: (Sees Condiment King in the corner) And pickle-head is safe!

Rubberband Man: Which reminds me, why the heck are Ebon AND Luthor Jr. after this loser anyways?

Gear: The leading theory was that the latter was likely in town to get that sample of Quantum Vapor we found. But Ebon and his new employer have a whole new implication, especially if the deal was to have pickle-head over there captured alive. That's thrown a monkey wrench in the works.

Deadpool: Still might be something Ebon and company would be after. Given his actions in your series finale and everything.

Rubberband Man: So what do we do now?

Deadpool: No worries Totally-Not-Elongated-Man, I'll get on the horn to the Watchtower and beam everyone out of here. And we'll keep the Big Bang Gas on ice while we're at it.

(But just as Deadpool is about to ring up the Watchtower, something punches him in the face, as Ebon steps out of the shadow)

Ebon: So this is where you've been this whole time? Using urban decay to your advantage. Nice. Now I'll be taking pickle-head over there, and that canister of Big Bang Gas while I'm at it.

Static: Not while we're here!

(With that, the battle begins again, Static trying to use his electricity to try and damage Ebon with light, with Gear and Rubberband Man trying everything to hold him down. As this goes on, Deadpool gets back up and looks right at the audience)

Deadpool: (To the author) Do you just enjoy seeing me unconscious?

No. I enjoy making a fool out of you, Wade.

Deadpool: (To the author) Look, I know we hate each other, but can you help me out here? Facilier here is going to destroy this place!

Only if you agree to take this seriously.

Deadpool: (To the author) You think I don't know how serious this is?! I'm trying to be the levity in this situation!

So am I. A little slapstick won't kill you.

Deadpool: (To the author) Fair enough. Now can we just agree to a Cold War Truce of some kind so we can stop this?!

Check your belt.

Deadpool: (Reaches into a belt pouch and pulls out what looks like a string of flashbangs) Oh, now we're talking! INCOMING!

(Within minutes, Deadpool has thrown all of his flashbangs into the fray, nearly deafening Ebon then and there, but then Ebon just gets tired of it and starts choking Deadpool as Gear throws in a few Mark II Zap Caps, as Static electrifies them to essentially taser Ebon and Deadpool a bit. But Ebon is far from done, as he lets go of Deadpool, by throwing him into Gear and Rubberband Man, and then creates a portal underneath the three of them, with Rubberband Man's elastic body being the only thing holding them up as Ebon grabs Condiment King and a canister that must contain the aforementioned Quantum Vapor from a nearby cooler)

Ebon: Well Static, looks like you've got a choice! Save your friends, or the gas and pickle head.

(Seeing what needs to be done, Static pulls a wire out of his pocket, wraps it into a cat's cradle and channels his power into it, blinding Ebon, causing him to drop Condiment King. As Condiment King falls, Static magnetizes the tanks on his back as he rushes over to rescue the rest of the company as Ebon escapes into the shadow with the Quantum Vapor canister while the light dissipates.)

Deadpool: Well that was the strangest series of events yet.

Gear: (Checking the cooler) Looks like Ebon got away with the gas.

Deadpool: But at least he didn't get pickle head over there.

Rubberband Man: You never did answer why everyone's after this loser.

Deadpool: Some sort of energy signature that effected a group he was part of that's clearly some sort of foreshadowing for something. Nobody knows yet. For now though, let's get pickle head to the Watchtower.

(Just as the group is about to leave for the Watchtower, AMAZO materializes in front of them.)

AMAZO: (Teleports Condiment King to the Watchtower) Taken care of.

Deadpool: Whoa, holy sudden character appearances!

AMAZO: As much as I'd love to continue this talk with the author, your help is needed in Gotham.

Static: Any time, any where. Let's do this!

AMAZO: I admire your enthusiasm.

Deadpool: Wait, you can see the author too?

AMAZO: Why else do you think I'm here? He told me to come find you.

Can you two get on with the story, please?

AMAZO: Agreed.

(As soon as AMAZO responds to the author, he transports himself, Deadpool, Static, Rubberband Man, and Gear away, as we transition back to Punisher's warehouse, where Bane is just about to break down the door)

Belial Aether: Prepare to hold your ground!

(Of course just as Belial Aether rallies the troops, the door to this garage, is broken down, revealing Bane, Hammerhead, and Eclipso)

Hammerhead: (Seeing the warehouse) Got to admit Castle, you've done well for yourself. Too bad it all has to come crashing down.

Punisher: (Pulling a rocket launcher from the Battle Van) Not happening, Hammerhead.

(With that, the battle begins as Punisher fires his rocket at Hammerhead, which Eclipso blocks using her literal divine magic. As the smoke fades, Bane rushes into the scene as Lobo snags his arm with his chain while Hammerhead starts shooting at Booster Gold with a tommy gun)

Lobo: Take this you bastitch!

(With a swift tug of the chain, Lobo attempts to sever some of Bane's Venom dispensary system, but Bane is tougher than he expected, as shown by how he flings Lobo into Draaga by his own chain before attempting to charge Belial Aether, who blocks him with a bit of magic, which Eclipso is almost able to shatter.)

Bane: Cease this unnecessary struggle, wizard! You have no chance!

Eclipso: Give up the egg man or you're going to get scrambled!

(As Belial Aether is just about to accept the death knell that is coming for them all, when a familiar glowing ankh appears in the air behind Eclipso, allowing Doctor Fate to emerge from it)

Doctor Fate: I believe you have the sides reversed, Loring.

(As Doctor Fate makes his comment, the rest of the group emerges: Deadpool, Spider Ham, Static, Gear, Rubberband Man, AMAZO, Hawkgirl, and Solomon Grundy.)

Deadpool: Well don't we look rad.

Booster Gold: Where the heck have you been?!

Deadpool: Wrapping up some plot. (Pulls out a pair of AR-15's) NOW LET'S KICK SOME TAIL!

(As soon as Deadpool stops yelling, the entire group charges into the battle. Deadpool, and later Punisher, start firing wildly on Hammerhead allowing Booster Gold to get in a few swings. Doctor Fate sets his sight on Eclipso, blocking the stream of magic breaking down Belial Aether's defenses, allowing the Anubite to trap Bane in a bubble of magic before casting it over to Lobo and Draaga, who essentially start playing volleyball with him, while Belial Aether turns his magic against Eclipso as well, joined soon by AMAZO. Meanwhile, the bubble holding Bane breaks, just as Hawkgirl swings her mace into his face as Spider Ham webs him up, before Rubberband Man catches him, allowing Static to shock Bane's venom, causing the water content to undergo electrolysis, and leave only the dry compounds as it explodes the system it's kept in before Gear throws in some Mark II Zap Caps to contain Bane. As this wraps up, so too does the fight against Eclipso, who is for some reason getting depowered, but not by Doctor Fate and Belial Aether.)

Eclipso: (As she loses the last bit of her power) What...? What is happening to me?!

(As Eclipso loses her powers, Belial Aether casts a binding spell, holding Eclipso in place as Booster Gold and Deadpool wrap up Hammerhead in Booster Gold's own force field, since he can do that.)

Belial Aether: Well that's all of them.

Booster Gold: Wait, where's Chang Tzu?

Punisher: (Pulls Chang Tzu up by the exoskeleton from behind a crate) There we go.

(Just as Chang Tzu is found, Bane starts to laugh from within his confinement.)

Bane: This is far from the end. This is only the beginning.

(And just like that, Bane suddenly vanishes in a plume of purple smoke, leaving everybody in the room confused)

Deadpool: Holy ominous foreshadowing!

Doctor Fate: Indeed. Perhaps there is a second force unbeknownst to us that Bane is loyal to.

Static: I can confirm there is one. And Ebon is working for them too.

Doctor Fate: We must bring this information to Dragnarok once he returns. For now, we should get Chang Tzu with his compatriots in the Watchtower.

(And as Doctor Fate teleports the group out of Punisher's warehouse, our story ends for today)

This concludes Part II of the Election Day Special. For Part III, journey over to Prophecy of Masks. So, things are getting spooky. We know Bane is loyal to Eternal, the latter has even said as much. But what about Ebon? Who's he working for? And above all, what is happening with the Misfits? The answers will be revealed in due time. But for now, you'll just have to tune in next time to find out what happens next! Same time... same channel!
