Considering throwing my hat into this if there's still room. However I'm still debating whether to go with Harper Row/Bluebird, or an original "Robin" from the street gang. Have half finished CS's for each D:

As her foot impaled the stomach of yet another of the screeching parasites that had swarmed out of the portal towards her, America Chavez darted her eyes up towards the crack looming above her. Despite having encountered similar cracks throughout her superhero career, she still was unable to describe what they looked like, with the sight appearing much like a giant flash of light to her eyes. As such, she found her eyes moving away in pain, only for her brows to furrow as she elbowed another one of her attackers.
Moving quickly, she pushed forwards, kicking outwards as she did so at oncoming parasites, and floated towards the top of the crack. As she approached, her vision blurred once more, not being able to take in all of the light. Regardless, that didn’t stop her, and with one swift lunge she found her hands clasping around the rim of the universe itself.
Now came the hard part; closing the crack for good. Normally an act such as this would come as no trouble to Ms. America. She closed interdimensional holes all the time in fact; every time she kicks one open! All it takes is for her to clear her mind and think of a happy thought. Unfortunately in this case it would seem that that wouldn’t be enough. The hole was too big for a mere memory of last night’s pizza or the thought of women’s volleyball teams. No, this would take something much more.
Closing her eyes, America Chavez took a deep breath, as she cleared her mind of all abstract thoughts. Then, slowly, a smile crept across her face. In one swift motion, she pulled down, bringing the roof of the crack down with her. The crack fell shut, mirroring a garage door, disappearing into nothingness without even a sound.
What’s a happy thought stronger than even this crack in the fabric of the universe? Family.

Despite it being nearly midnight, the New Jersey street was awashed in light and activity. Huge crowds of civilians had gathered, amassing a mixture of both people half asleep in dressing gowns, and drunken club-goers. The commotion had only started about half an hour ago, although it had only been ten minutes later before the men in suits arrived. S.H.I.E.L.D. they called themselves. The group had cornered off a large chunk of the street, working with local police to keep people back and control the peace.
Despite their attempts however, it was still easy to see what they were protecting. Right in the middle of the street another crack had appeared, tearing straight through the air like a nasty glowing scar. Ms. America’s next target.
As everyone around him were attempting to take a decent photograph of the crack for their various Instagram accounts, one man simply watched on silently. The commotion amused him, evident by the smirk that was etched into his boyish face.
Taking one last glance at his interdimensional doorway, the white haired man turned on his heel and headed back into the crowd, before disappearing around a street corner.
I'll probably bring Cho in once I officially finish my exams (so next month), although I'll lay off the Hulk stuff for now anyway
Be interesting to explore his and Bruce's friendship however if you ever decide to reapply as him @sep

@sep You know what m8? Just to spite you;
Seriously though, I guess I never really read much of anything involving Bruce? Whereas one of my all-time favourite reads has to be The Incredible Hercules, mainly just because of how fun it was. I'd be more than happy if they eventually gave Banner his powers back and Cho continued his adventures with Hercules, although sadly i don't see that happening!

Tbh with DCs Rebirth and Marvels ANAD I would say that while Marvel have the movie game... they don't appear to have the comic game.
Absolutely agree with this! Read DC Rebirth #1 yesterday and it looks great! Pretty sure I'm going to end up adding quite a lot of DC to my pull list!
ANAD hasn't been too bad so far. From what I've read anyway. There's been some decisions I haven't been too keen on, such as this new Cap issue ofc, as well as whatever's going on with Peter Parker/Spider-Man right now. Truth be told I haven't read much of the new Amazing Spider-Man, but the premise doesn't really seem all too Spider-Man to me if that makes sense? Might just be because I haven't read much of it though!
Really enjoying Totally Awesome Chulk (sorry @sep), although that's mainly because i love Amadeus Cho! I like how he's taking his own spin on the Hulk and how it affects him! Next plot line is apparently involving Bruce Banner too!
Anyway, now that I'm done with this weird little fangasm, I'm off to bed!
Hopefully posting this weekend as America and/or Boomerang
Also @The Kid Lantern, what other characters/other versions of Spidey were included in the pack?
Personally i wouldn't have minded at all if Captain America was given an onscreen homosexual relationship. In fact part of me hoped that they were going to go that route before Civil War came out. Although that being said i knew it probably wasn't going to happen meaning i wasn't really that shocked when it didn't.
I think it would be great if the MCU could add some diversity in the form of some more prominent LGBT characters. I doubt we'll be seeing that though for a long time which is unfortunate! Hopefully we'll get a Young Avengers and/or Runaways film!
In regards to that Cap spoiler, I'm extremely pissed. It's just incredibly out of character (which may seem hypocritical to say considering my opinions on a gay/bi/non-straight cap), as well as just plain stupid! Was actually considering putting it on my pull list before this happened!
Don't get me started on Civil War II!

So with the current state of my laptop (it has decided to pursue a career as a non functioning lump of metal, I have been unable to change its mind), I have no way of reliably making posts on the guild. As a result, I'm dropping out of most of my role-plays so as not to let anyone down with late or nonexistent posts. Sorry for the inconvenience caused, at least Brian hasn't involved himself into the story too much so far.
That's a shame man! :/ Well if it's fixed, I know you'll be welcomed back with open arms!
@Dedonus just realized that you never actually had Spidey show up at Yellowjacket yet, only had him prepare to suit up! Should i edit my post or?
“You’re joking right? I’m Boomerang!”
“Still don’t know who you are, jackass!”
“Yeah? Well that’s dementia for y’, you twat.”
The old man’s remark sent a small surge of anger through Fred Myer’s body. Over a year he had been doing this, and yet still people had no clue who the hell he was. Surely the costume was a dead giveaway. It was covered in Boomerangs after all! There’d also been footage of him on the news before, albeit him in cuffs and in court, although regardless that shouldn’t have given him some recognition. Regardless, this old fart was going to remember the name Boomerang after today!
After all, he was robbing the place.
Stepping back from the disgruntled pensioner, Boomerang turned to face the rest of the cabletied hostages, surveying the situation at hand. So far everything seemed to be going according to plan. Him and the rest of his motley crew; Shocker, Hydro-Man, and Speed Demon, had taken hold of the joint with no problem at all, gathering the staff and customers into the bank’s main lobby. Especially since Spider-Man was currently indisposed. Before hitting the place, Boomerang had waited until the wall-crawling bastard had been spotted and posted about on social media. Apparently today he was dealing with some kind of incident at some fashion company. Hopefully the punk was picking a better looking costume!
Although even if Spider-Man did many to finish whatever it was he was doing, Boomerang doubted that the guy would swing all the way out to Jersey City. Place was an utter dump! As well as an utter bore. Personally he figured that he was doing the city a favour by robbing the place. It would give the people something legitimate to complain about for once.
The loud sounds of metallic clanging from one of the bank’s back rooms caught Boomerang’s attention. It was seem that Shocker and Hydro-Man had managed to find a way to open the vault. A short cheer from them confirmed the fact.
They were actually doing it!
That thought soon disappeared from Fred’s mind however when the sound of a police siren rung out over the temporary silence. Someone must have pressed the silent alarm! Boomerang swore loudly as his eyes darted to the bank’s front windows. It would seem that this was going to get interesting.
As such, a burst of colour and wind rushed passed him, whizzing out of the bank’s door. It returned several seconds later, stopping next to him in the form of his colleague Speed Demon.
“There’s lots of them, Freddy” He said with a face full of glee. “Caught sight of one of the drivers too. Hot. So hot!”
While incredibly useful, Speed Demon was always an enormous pain the ass. Ignoring the speedster’s latter comment, he turned to reply.
“How are Shocker and Hydro doing?” He asked inquisitively. When he didn’t reply, Boomerang scowled, before snapping his fingers in front of the guy’s now daydreaming face. “Oi!”
“Oh..Sorrrry!” Instantly he disappeared, leaving a gust of wind in his place, before reappearing where he had been stood about a second later. “Yeah, they’re just packing up now.”
The news made Fred smile. All they needed to do now was make a clear getaway. As such, just as the thought was passing through his mind, the police decided to would be a good idea to arrive.
“You’re dead moron!” The old man from before shouted from where he had been cowering on the floor.
Boomerang rolled his eyes. Did he really think that he couldn’t take care of a few meesely cops? Whipping a boomerang out from his belt, he pointed it forwards towards the man.
“You think so Gramps? Well you just strap yourself in and watch the show!”
With that, Fred flicked his wrist to the right, letting go of the weapon. The projectile whizzed through the air, smashing through the window and straight into the nearest police car, lodging itself into the car bonnet with a faint thud. Instantly, the exploding boomerang erupted in a flash of light and fire, sending the vehicle flying into the air in a ball of fire. The cops outside scattered immediately, most calling out in terror and fear. Boomerang just watched with a smile.
Not wishing to delay the mission any longer, he headed backwards towards the vault door in order to help the rest of his crew. As if on cue however, Shocker and Hydro-Man rounded the corner, duffle bags slugged over their shoulders and in their arms.
“Let’s bounce boss!” Hydro-Man said with a smile, as the two villains handed Boomerang and Speed Demon each a bag.
Deciding to take their lead, the four charged towards the banks entrance, towards both their freedom and the cops, whom had now begun to rallying outside. Luckily Shocker was spearheading the charge. Moving quickly, the quilt-suited man raised his right arm, aiming his gauntlet towards his targets. He fired, releasing a blast from his vibro-shock units, causing the bank’s remaining windows to shatter, as well as bring all the men to their knees.
“Speed Demon.” Boomerang commanded as the group headed out of the doors and neared the now downed police officers.
“Got it Boomer.”
Instantly the speedster overtook the rest of group, rocketing into the cops at high speeds and knocking them backwards and into unconsciousness. By the time he had finished, the rest of the group were crossing the street towards their getaway vehicle, Boomerang laying down protective fire as they did so, launching boomerangs everywhere. Chucking the bags into the back of the van, the four of them crammed into the rusty old van, as Hydro-Man attempted to start the engine.
After several seconds of intense revving, as well as a couple of loud creaks, the vehicle lurched forwards. Gaining speed, the van raced down the road, the bank and the cops growing smaller and smaller in the mirrors.
