DC Modern - Season 2 - Episode 3 - 4/4/22

Cat Grant is visiting with the owner of the paper this week after last weeks bombshell catbites. I am her new assistant Bruce. I will be filling in this week. 

The girl cosplaying as color blind Supergirl has still not been seen since taken ( abducted? Kidnapped?) by the Myrmidons to their fortress. Given their affiliation with the Amazons and their anti American way of thinking are we surprised?  They are obviously guilty, at least by associate, well except for Achilles. No one that fine could be up to no good. 

Amazons attack DC and behead tacky statue in stuffy mausoleum. St

We here at catbites have to be the ones to ask the hard questions to power. Just how many abduction cases has GatewayPD coved up for the Myrmidons?  Is it 0? 3? 45?  We feel we have a right to know. (Obviously Achilles is not involved. No one that good looking has to kidnap anyone. I mean who do we think he is Paris?)

And there it is this weeks catbites. Hopefully next week Ms Grant will be back. As always leave your comments and compliments on our Lex book page. You can also tweet us or old fashion email.  Let them know how great I did while I was filling it. 

We decide to use Bruce from the paper to release a statement to counter the protests erupting outside the Embassy after the Amazon attack on DC. He’s too taken with Achilles to report the message that we’re resisting the Amazons. After he leaves, Amazons attack from within the Embassy.

After fighting off two groups that are teleporting in through a device in the basement, another group manages to make off with Flamebird, whose powers are not working. Although Quantum is seriously injured, we follow the Amazons through the portal to DC. We lose Flamebird but fight plenty of Amazons on pegasi, chimera, hydrae, and cyclopes. We connect with Donna, who takes us to Diana, who has been freed. Diana says Hippolyta is willing to talk peace. She and Donna take Rachael to go talk to her in a cave near Mt. Rushmore. Hippolyta recognizes Rachael as Thalia.

Meanwhile, a colonel offers us a mission to capture 5th columnists in San Francisco. We agree and take a JLA transporter there, where we discover our targets are Helena and Cassie Sandsmark and Supergirl, who are at the Museum of Antiquities. The museum is being attacked by US armed forces, and Wonder Girl and Supergirl are fighting back. We approach and try to talk to Cassie, but Supergirl continues attacking tanks. Achilles convinces Cassie and Supergirl to withdraw inside so we can all talk. Cassie and Supergirl take Helena and museum employees to safety.

Meanwhile, Amazons are attacking the army here and also attacking in Kansas, in disregard of Hippolyta’s commands. The group in San Francisco aids the military, but a purple-ray weapon is brought out that threatens Achilles, but he and Orichalcum take out the fire teams. Rachael joins the fight in Kansas. Amazons retreat across the US.

Athena appears to Hippolyta and accuses her of betraying the gods by attacking man’s world. She exiles the Amazons to another dimension except for Hippolyta, who will rule an empty island, and Diana, Donna, and Thalia. Rachael is transported back to the Embassy, during which transport she sees the other Olympian gods in chains. The rest of the Myrmidons return to the Embassy.

Donna tells them that Flamebird was being held by Circe, who had manipulated Hippolyta to attack before being killed. Circe thought she was Supergirl and had some plan for her, but she was freed and was returning to the Embassy too. Rachael tells the rest of the team of the captured Olympians, which she remembers included Athena and Ares.

Orichalcum’s brother under the name Black Diamond is the new hero of Gateway City, who fought off Amazons.
