  Alone in his room, Joel was reading a comic. He held the comic with his left hand and in his right was a red, fine-tipped, felt pen. The ashtray sitting on his night stand, only an arm’s reach away, was now empty. It was usually heaped with discarded cigarette butts. A desk lamp positioned over his right shoulder was the only source of light. A little of the light radiated back into his face from a mirror hanging on the wall.
Suddenly a quack startled the confused superhero. His head snapped up to glance out the window. Only a hazy full moon was visible. Joel’s quick thinking registered the noise and matched it with it’s only possible source. “Damn duck,” Joel muttered, a bit of saddness jolted his heart for the duck that went missing two weeks prior. He was about to return to his comic when he caught a glimse of himself in the mirror.
“Who am I?” Joel asked himself. I’m Disorientedman no more. He looked at the red pen in his hand. Joel thought maybe he could become the editor and correct the mistakes of bad men. He couldn’t help himslef from correcting the shoddy grammar in his comic books and the Mountaineer was absolutely horrible. Joel dispised the writter with the byline Aaron Dane Lutz.
He still believed his partner in crime fighting, Dane Lutz, was somehow related. He also knew of the power of addiction. The empty ashtray reminded Joel of how great it felt to suck on the filter of a DuMuarier light kingsize. His need began to grow. He wished there was a villan in front of him, so he could kick a little ass. Lately the only people feeling the effects of his smokless life style were the customers at Rolf’s.
On Sunday evening to piss his customers off, he pretended to be out of the most popular brand of nic-sticks. He laughed in the face of one lady as she swipped a container of chocolates all over the counter. It was a malicious cackle. It was not one of a superhero, but one that belonged to the most mischievious evil-doer Rocky has ever seen. Could this be the end for our courageous superhero? Could this be the demise of Joel as a goodguy?
Is this the beginning of a new force of evil? Tune in next time. Same blog internet address. Same crazy blog title.
