The criminal controlling the mirrors, in the series "Forever Evil"

in #art3 days ago

Hello!

Today you will find out what happened to the Mirror Master after gaining superpowers and fighting an army of gorillas.

The action takes place on Earth 0 in the Mirror World. After several days of planning, the Rogues attempt a large-scale robbery using abandoned gem mines hidden under Keystone City. They plan to dig under the bank, punch a hole big enough to put a mirror inside, and Sam will take $10 million through it into the Mirror World and divide it. Unfortunately, as soon as they manage to dig under the bank, the foundation of the building begins to collapse. Despite the protests of the Heat Wave, they are forced to abandon the robbery in order to compensate for the damage, since the lives of hundreds of people in the building above are at stake, and the Rogues do not kill.

After that, the team retires to the Keystone bar and gets drunk. The Golden Glider occupies a separate table in order to be alone with the mirror through which Scudder looks at her. Frustrated, Captain Cold tells the couple that he feels guilty for not being able to join the rest of his sister and the Mirror Master. When the rest of the Rogues pass out, Leonard asks Lisa and the main character to transfer them to the Mirror World. The latter send him, after which the Glider decides to use his powers to bring Sam back to the real world. The latter and Captain Cold consider this a bad idea. Angry Lisa flies away.

Scudder finds his girlfriend in her own hospital room, the location of which is "Central Care Hospital". Lisa still decides to help the Mirror Master. Using all her strength, she manages to do it. However, the main character sees how Lisa's projection disappears, and all life indicators are zero. Doctors report that the girl has a heart attack and take Sam out of the ward. When the rest of the Rogues come here, Leonard threatens to kill Scudder if his sister dies. The team blames Captain Cold for all their jambs, which is why he dismisses the Rogues.

Later, the Mirror Master, the Weather Wizard and Mick find out that a drunk Leonard is robbing a bank. After finding Captain Cold, the trio takes him to the Mirror World. There, Leonard apologizes to everyone for blowing up the genome transcoder. Accepting the apology, Sam, Marco and Rory reassemble the Rogues, whose new leader is Captain Cold. After visiting Lisa, Leonard tells the others to help him get the Trickster (Axel Walker) out of Iron Heights prison.

When they reach their destination, the Rogues quietly destroy the fence. Scudder doesn't want anything to do with Axel, but Captain Cold says that he is also a member of the team. When the Rogues pass the fence, an unknown speedster with a reduced girl on his shoulder knocks them down and breaks through the wall. The team sees how this guy leaves only bones from the guard. During the alarm and escape of the prisoners, a speedster calling himself Johnny Quick gives Leonard a coin with a three-eyed skull. He warns that Rogues may need this thing if they want to join a "Secret Society".

After rescuing Walker, the team comes to the first meeting of supervillains. Mirror Master and Heat Wave worry that Flash will come running soon and stop them, but Trickster and Captain Cold calm them down. A Crime Syndicate (CS) appears before them. In its composition:

The Syndicate informs everyone that the Justice League (0) and the Justice League of America (0) have been destroyed, and then throws them:

  • Aquaman's trident (0)
  • Wonder Woman's lasso (0)
  • Superman's cloak (0)

During the conversation, the Crime Syndicate kills Monocle (0) and reveals the identity of Dick (0), after which he takes him hostage. Another Crime Syndicate of America offers villains to join a Secret Society. Realizing that the Flash is really gone, the Rogues join in. They understand that now no one will stop them from taking the "Pearl Cities".

When the team returns to Central City, they see the city destroyed by someone and decide to take revenge on the instigator. Also, the Rogues notice how someone covers the sun with the moon. Quickly realizing that this is the work of a Crime Syndicate, the team finds a beaten and half-dead Girder. A second later, they see the chained corpses of guards and gorillas, as well as the heads of other villains impaled on stakes. The Rogues understand that the instigator is Gorilla Grodd. Axel offers the others to join the Secret Society, but they refuse. Deciding to make sure that everything is fine with the Glider, Leonard creates a reflective surface so that Sam can transfer everyone to the Mirror World, and through it to the hospital. They notice that a group of policemen, led by Captain Frye, are chained to trees. Frye reports that Grodd and the rest of the gorillas have returned to the "Gorilla City", before saying that more villains will be sent here to destroy the city to the ground. On the orders of Captain Cold, the others release the cops. David Singh decides to kill Mick, but Mick convinces him not to. From Darryl, the Rogues find out that everything is fine with the hospital.

Having reached the destination, the team neutralizes the crazy anarchists. Arriving at the ward, Leonard and Scudder try to figure out what's wrong with Lisa, but the instruments show only the phrase: "THIS WORLD IS OURS.". The Mirror Master and Captain Cold do not know how to come to terms with the condition of the latter's sister. A second later, Rory informs them that the Syndicate has sent members of the Society here, namely:

  • Black Bison
  • Hyena
  • Multiplex
  • Plastiq
  • Typhoon

Leonard tells the main character to stay here and look after Lisa, and he leaves. After seeing how the rest of the Rogues are fighting with the Secret Society, protecting the hospital, Sam, violating the order, decides to help them. He sends all the Multiplex clones to the Mirror World, and an angry Captain Cold knocks out the original. A second later, the Rogues are thrown back by the shock wave. This was done by the Deathstorm and the Power Ring. The latter decide to kill the entire team for disobedience. Crazy Hal (3) knocks out the team with a blow of the "Volthoom ring". Waking up, Scudder tries to help the Heat Wave, but he does not need it. Mardon "cools the ardor" of Mick, and Martin (3) deprives Leonard of strength. The weakened Captain Cold says that it is necessary to regroup and tells the Mirror Master to move them through the nearest window. When the team finds themselves in the Mirror World, Jordan breaks the window, thereby making the portal of the main character unstable.

Sam finds himself in the Daily Planet building and sees that Rory, holding a knocked-out Walker in his right hand, is hanging from the same broken window from which the first one flew out. Scudder tries to help, but, due to the abilities of the Heat Wave, burns his hands, and the latter flies down. Fortunately, they are saved by a Weather Wizard. Using mirrors, the Mirror Master contacts Leonard, who ended up in Gotham. The main character informs Captain Cold that after a skirmish with Stein and the Power Ring, his abilities work crookedly. Sam also says that no one is chasing Leonard, but he sees Lex Luthor nearby next to someone who looks like Superman. Captain Cold tells the rest of the Rogues not to look for him and appoints Scudder as the new leader. When the Mirror Master loses contact with Leonard, a member of the Society - an Archer (a low-budget version of the Green Arrow)- shoots the Trickster in the leg, who knocks him out with a jet fist. A second later, they are attacked by a Parasite trying to suck all the energy out of Mick. When Joshua throws Axel away with a powerful blow, the protagonist saves him by locking him in the Mirror World, and tells Marco to snatch Rory from the hands of the first. Having done this, Mardon strikes Michael with a powerful lightning strike, thereby accidentally feeding him. Allen decides to eat the Weather Wizard. At the last moment, Sam moves everyone into the Mirror World.

The portal throws the team into Gotham, or rather, right on the vines. It turns out that the Rogues got into the garden of Poison Ivy. Pamela says that the Syndicate has put a bounty on the heads of all the team members, and, instead of killing, offers them to work for her. The freed Walker, instead of helping the others, rolls up to Isley. The girl kisses the Trickster, thereby poisoning him. Freeing the Rogues, Poison Ivy tells Marco to use his abilities to move the Moon and return the Sun to everyone, otherwise Axel will die. Unfortunately, Mardon can't do that. Then Scudder offers her another way. He wants to restore his "mirror cannon" in order to project many mirrors that will reflect sunlight. Pamela sends a Mirror Master and a Heat Wave to the Wayne Tech company, where the necessary parts are stored. Along the way, both notice a woman walking with two girls and two rapists. Sam decides to help first, but sees that she is a Ventriloquist (Shauna Belzer), and the girls are her robots that knock out guys. Scudder and Mick decide to go the other way. Having reached the place, the Mirror Master, noticing an army of Man-Bat Commandos in the sky, decides to get the parts silently. Passing the fence, Rory says that they decided to help Walker in vain. The main character finds the necessary spare parts, but the Heat Wave accidentally hits the stairs, thereby creating a strong noise in the room. Both decide to leave, but they are attacked by the Man-Bat Commandos. Seeing these creatures beating up Mick, Sam sends them to the Mirror World. When they return to the garden, Isley promises that he will cure the Trickster and let them go.

Later, Scudder, using the assembled cannon, goes to the Mirror World, where he finds the reflective surface of the Wayne Tech satellite. Having found a sunbeam, the Mirror Master redirects it through several mirrors directly into the garden. Unfortunately, the main character begins to be dragged inside. At the last moment, Axel saves him. Angry Poison Ivy changes the terms of the deal, and the Weather Wizard is kidnapped by one of the Man-Bat Commandos. He is stopped by a sudden ice wall. The Rogues think that Captain Cold has returned, but it turned out to be Mister Freeze and Clayface, who also joined the Society. It turns out that Victor needs Marco in order to create an optimal environment for his abilities, and Basil needs revenge on everyone who does not take him seriously. Instead, Sam orders Rory to create a smoke screen, and he takes Mardon and creates 10 mirror copies of him. Scudder manages to bring the Weather Wizard to his senses. Fries tells the Mirror Master to bring Marco, otherwise they will kill the Heat Wave. When Sam comes out, Mister Freeze freezes him. A second later, everyone is attacked by a Black Mask and a False Face Society. The Rogues are rescued by Walker in an armored car. The Secret Society stops the transport, but fortunately, Mick, deciding to buy some time for the others, creates a powerful fire flash and burns most of the opponents. Deciding that it would be better, the team leaves, abandoning Rory. Thanks to the Trickster's jet boots and the wind created by Mardon, the Rogues manage to cross the destroyed bridge. Unfortunately, they are stopped by the Royal Flash Gang, whose members are also in the hospital ward of the Golden Glider. The gang locks the team in an armored car and gets behind the wheel.

When the transport crosses the 90th highway, the Weather Wizard causes a thunderstorm, knocks out the members of the Royal Flash Gang and accidentally knocks down his own, and Axel kills one of the opponents. The main character accuses Marco of Lisa's death, in response to which the second one hits him in the face with a stone, and then leaves the Rogues. Sam and Walker decide to get the Golden Glider out of the hospital.

Back in Central City, Scudder installs a large mirror on the hood of the armored car. The Mirror Master and the Trickster meet a former member of their team - the Pied Piper - and the remaining policemen. The main character asks Hartley to take care of Lisa.

Later, he tells Axel to enter the Golden Glider's room from the back entrance while he distracts the gang members. Sam creates mirror copies of his team and sets the Royal Flash Gang. When they destroy the duplicates, Scudder opens a portal to the Mirror World and sends most of the gang members there. After that, Walker and the cops are connected. A second later, Johnny Quick and Atomica appear in front of them all. While the Royal Flash Gang retreats, the girl knocks out the Trickster, and Johnny neutralizes the Mirror Master and takes his gun. The members of the Crime Syndicate decide to refresh the main character and Axel before killing him. They also say that there are Rogues on Earth 3 - policemen with hearts of gold. Sam says that what's going on between Allen and Rhonda is not love. When Pineda decides to kill Scudder, Mardon appears and strikes opponents with lightning bolts. The first one shrinks and runs away, and the last one stops Quick, mixing a blizzard with a hurricane. At the last moment, a gang member shoots the Weather Wizard right in the head. Angry Johnny kills this guy. When the Grid unexpectedly teleports Allen and Atomica to its headquarters, the Mirror Master checks on Marco. He realizes that Mardon, by his own efforts, slightly changed the trajectory of the bullet. When the latter regains consciousness, the Rogues and policemen are attacked by other members of the Secret Society, namely:

  • Amazo
  • Archer
  • Black Bison
  • Fearsome Five
    • Gizmo
    • Jinx
    • Mammoth
    • Psimon
    • Shimmer
  • Royal Flush Gang
  • Grodd
  • Hyena
  • Multiplex
  • Parasite
  • Plastiq
  • Tar Pit
  • Typhoon

BEFORE

Once upon a time, a Pied Piper was part of the Rogues. Together they did a lot of things.

At some point, Hartley confesses to the team that he is gay. They didn't care. The Rogues continued to treat Rathaway as before.

When the Pied Piper starts dating a cop, the team kicks him out.

NOW

The Rogues are losing the battle with so many villains. Fortunately, Hartley saves them and offers to move to the Mirror World. The main character says he can't do it, after which the Black Bison shoots him in the back. Taking control of Joshua, Rathaway neutralizes Grodd. During the final battle, Sam says goodbye to his girlfriend. A second later, someone scatters the opponents. The mysterious ally turns out to be the real Lisa, who woke up to the Pied Piper's music. The Golden Glider tells Scudder to believe in himself as well as she believes in him, and create the largest portal to the Mirror World. After that, the Weather Wizard creates a strong hurricane in order to throw all the opponents into the portal. When they succeed, Lisa makes all the Rogues intangible. As soon as all the opponents get into the Mirror World, Walker smashes the mirror with his jet fist. Lovers kiss. Residents of Central City thank the team for their rescue. The Rogues say they will continue to protect the city from other villains.

I hope you enjoy it.
