We open to inside a nerdy comic book store. There are comics and figurines literally adorning every inch of the walls and floors. A delivery guy is bringing in some boxes. The owner of the store…let’s call him Gavin… looks confused.
Gavin: What are these?
Delivery Guy: New comics.
Gavin picks up one of the comics and gives it a quick browse.
Gavin: ‘OCW’? Middle Finger Man? What the hell? I didn’t order these.
Delivery Guy: Look man, I’m just doing what I’m told yeah?
Gavin: Who by?! I own this shop!
The delivery guy looks back over his shoulder.
Delivery Guy: Him.
Gavin looks up and sees a bald man enter the store with all but his middle fingers missing.
MFM: So…. I can sell these in here, right?
Gavin: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh………….
MFM: Every superhero has to have their own comic!
Gavin: Riiight.
We fade out.

Elsewhere and the A-List couple that is Dylan and Lissandra Thomas are at their booth at Comi-con when a bald man with only his middle fingers approaches the table. Dylan is all smiles.
Dylan: Hello, my friend. Who do I make an autograph out to?
The man simply raises his middle finger up at Dylan. The A-Listers look annoyed.
MFM: You. Me. This Monday at Massacre.
Dylan: You work for OCW?
The man nods and Dylan shrugs.
Dylan: I don’t know who you are man, but if you wanna dance at Massacre, then fine. Lissie?
Lissandra: On it.
Lissandra gets out her diary and marks it down. The man simply walks away with Dylan looking very confused.
Dylan: Who was that guy?
Lissandra: I’ve just marked him down as Middle Finger Man.
The scene fades out.
======================================================================
When we open again the Thomas’s are out and about in Hollywood with baby Lilly. They enter the comic book store where we began. Gavin instantly recognises the couple. Lilly grabs hold of a Middle Finger Man comic.
Gavin: Holy cow! What are you guys doing in my store? I’m a big fan, Dylan. Gavin.
Dylan: Hey Gavin, thank-you. We’re in here looking for a birthday present for Lord Allton’s nephew. Allton’s unfortunately too busy to get out of the office today. I -
Dylan looks down at his daughter, noticing the comic.
Dylan: Wait…..
Dylan picks up another Middle Finger Man comic.
Dylan: His name is actually Middle Finger Man?
Gavin folds his arms rolling his eyes.
Gavin: Yeah. You know him? Claims he’s some kind of superhero. Basically started putting his comics everywhere.
Lissandra: Have you sold any?
Gavin: ……….. No.
Dylan: He challenged me to a match at the next Massacre. Guess it’s time to wake this guy up. Talk about delusions of grandeur. Er…Gav…. We’ll take a Batman comic. Cheers.
Gavin nods and we fade out again.
======================================================================
Dylan: So…… Middle Finger Man. You’re a hero is that it? A superhero? Alright. Sure. Why not? This is OCW. We’ve got mobsters dressed as crustaceans, elephants running around, bears with the Bat Symbol -admittedly THAT one is awesome - so why not some bald dude who can shoot fire out of his fingers and whose arch-nemesis is a giant cock?
Well you challenged me for a match at Massacre but I’m afraid that this is where your little pipe dream comes to an end. Batbear is the Superhero that the people want to see. Not you.
See you Monday.
