Thank you for the support! You guys are awesome!

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you so inclined! Enjoy your turkey comas.

Honestly, the security here is pretty terrible. Any cell that you can't see into allows for shenanigans. It's known that Zeph isn't a super, so they didn't stick him in one of their purpose built cells that can account for a number of powers that might be used to escape. Mostly it just floods the cell with knockout gas, but can also flood the cell with water to put out fires, and can also quickly drain the cell, heat it or chill it, shock the floor, stuff like that. The Grrl-verse doesn't have power dampers because I think that makes for lazy writing. I mean, no power dampers beyond klonking someone on the back of the head with a sock full of nickels, as being unconscious is about the most surefire way of preventing someone from using most powers.

It is known, at least among people in the know, that Zeph can do magic, but they figure if they strip away any foci he might have, and bind his hands, and gag him when he's not being actively interrogated, then they can probably keep him under control. Unfortunately for them, they didn't actually grab Zephan, and now the "4 out of 10 competence  rating" Goon Squad gets to reinforce the adage that quality is more important than quantity.

I'm really liking goon squad so far, hope to see more of them in the future

I think that when it comes to the Goon Squad, you'll find that quantity has a quality of its own. That quality is incompetence.

While Harem splits her power amongst her clones Goon Squad splits his intelligence. XD

"Sleight of hand", not "Slight of hand"

4/10 blows any mall security out of the water. I would totally hire goon squad.

There is something to be said with using literal arguing with yourself as a plot device. :P

To be fair, if you have magic in the setting and ways to dispel/suppress magic like those golems do... figuring out a way to suppress superpowers is probably possible, though it likely is not the kind of ritual you can slap on a collar but need a room with mystic power source to run off of.

Goon Squad seems like at least a 6/10 in the competence department, maybe 7/10 depending on what else we see. Not taking a phone in where it could get lifted makes sense even if the reason you need to stop him from having a battery is less him using it to melt the lock and more him using it as a magical focus.

I miss Mythbusters. That was such a good show, and they did such a spectacular job with all of the myths they tackled. The only one I had problems with was the Knife vs. Gun, as they kept using the wrong kind of knife so the knife guy didn't get the option to dodge (which is what you'd realistically do in that situation).

I think the Grrlverse Mythbusters would definitely do an episode on faceless minions.

She left quite a mess in there.
