just wanted to make sure you guys are all aware of the floating castle that just popped into the skies above Legionopolis.
It's apparently owned/operated by a guy called Zardoz, who is running for election to be overlord of creation. Thus far, his giant carnivorous rabbit has attacked LardLad.

He incited Lardy to attack him, yet Lardy could do no damage. So it was hardly in self-defense; Zardoz was in no danger from our fearless leader.
I should point out that I did advise Lardy to attack him, after all his grandiose claims. I felt we needed to test whether he was a legitimate threat, or merely an escapee from some lunatic asylum. It was really hard to tell - he genuinely seems to believe himself to be an immortal god-like being, yet rants like a dime-store loon.

his business card says, "Zardi, the Eternal Man."
hmmm... with a "NAME the ADJECTIVE Man" format, he sounds like he could be a leftover from the DC Explosion (Shade the Changing Man, Steel the Indestructible Man, Firestorm the Nuclear Man, etc).
He's probably just pissed because he never got his original 5-issue run in 1978, nor any Peter Milligan revival in recent years.
Maybe we can appease him with a team-up, as distasteful as that may be.

Anyhow, this Zardi fella definitely has some kinda mojo going for him. Can't tell if it's physical or magic-based. Given his get-up, I tend to think he's a magic wielder. My Lard Force has a certain kinship with magic, but I couldn't get a real feel for him to confirm or refute.
So far, he's mostly been a nuisance and a real jerk. He hasn't really done much other than to piss people off or just rub them the wrong way. He definitely claims that bigger things are to come, however.
Maybe we need to get a magic user to feel him out and see if that's his deal or not. We've been a little short of those lately, what with Stu, Maxx and Viv being absent. I'm not sure whether Pagan's on active duty right now since her return. Then, there's this MysticLuna lady--not sure what her deal is. Anyone I'm over looking?
Meanwhile, Zardi may be using my status as leader to sow some discontent, specifically the longer duration of my term as has been the trend lately. Should I go ahead and fire the elections back up, or should we wait and see what this cat's deal is? Downside could be that a new leader could be walking into a potential landmine here.
Thoughts?

Mr Shakespeare, does your Office of External Affairs maintain a liason with the Cacks?
Cuz we just received a message asking about terrorist activity on or around Mount Future.
Queen Hoo-Rah is concerned because the flow of electricity into the Cack Dimension was interrupted somehow and she missed her favorite soap operas this afternoon.

Britney's tight with the Cacks also... and if Lardy wants a Magic User, I'm positive that Pagan Lass would help out...
Zardi... Zardi... I know I've heard that name before...
