The Dark Horse fun continues with a Gurihuru cover that features Elastigirl in her classic costume clinking glasses with Mr. Incredible at the Supers convention. The first story continues with the creative team of Christos Gage an Gurihuru. It picks up with Mr. Incredible worried about losing his powers and agreeing to train his kids. They are in a park with Mr. Incredible throwing a hay bale at them. Violet captures it with her force field powers and Dash runs around his father to suck out the oxygen. Mr. Incredible uses the Hulk hand slap to knock back his son. Violet puts him in a force field, but he slams it with his fists until she drops the force field. Love the use of super powers! He says they used the correct tactics, but failed to use teamwork that would have defeated him. Mr. Incredible says they are ready for field mission. He takes them to see their mother, Helen, playing with Jack Jack using a Pixar ball on a picnic blanket.
They are driving back when a police officer says that a rockslide has blocked traffic. Bob says that is perfect for the field mission. In costume, the Incredibles head for the rockslide, a businessman complains to a police officer. Dash runs around a boulder and rocks start pelting the businessman’s car. Violet puts up a force field to protect the car, but it smashes the car bumper. Mr. Incredible straighten out the bumper and the businessman drives off angrily. Mr. Incredible decides to have them practice their powers noting the super villains that would not let up on him. They reach the Municiberg National Bank where there is a robbery. Violet throws force field discs, new power?, and Dash runs off with the money bags. Violet encases the robbers in her force field. The bank security guard praises the kids but Mr. Incredible comes down on the new heroes.
The smaller bank robber remarks about Mr. Incredible’s parenting is hilarious. The Incredible kids quit and return home defeated. Their costumes are in a hamper as they walk away right out of Amazing Spider-Man #50! Clever writing and artwork! The “Bedtime Story Part 2” continues Christos Gage’s script and art by J. Bone. Bob Parr is telling his kids about the true story defeating Baron Von Ruthless. He continues the story emphasizing that it was true to Dash and Violet. Bob adds that he didn’t defeat the Von Ruthless’ robot, Elastigirl was the hero there. While Mr. Incredible takes on Baron Von Ruthless inside the robot head on, Elasti Girl with powers slips into the robot and tears it apart! Bob explains to his kids that was early in their time dating and they didn’t want the rest of the Supers to be gossiping.
Elasti Girl and Mr. Incredible were not affected by Baron Von Ruthless’ power draining ray. The reaction of the kids is funny there! Mr. Incredible has more to the tale and continues Jack Jack’s bedtime story. The last story, “How The Cookie Crumbles” is by Landry Q. Walker and Emilio Urbano. Jack Jack is enjoying his cooke outside when he suddenly shrinks to the garden at Honey I Shrunk The Kids-size. He falls into a crevice and his cookie bounces away. Jack Jack breaks out crying and is surrounded by ants. Before you can say Ant Man, an ant brings him a piece of cookie then takes him ant back riding out of the ant tunnel. Jack Jack is normal size looking at all of his cookies on the grass when Bob finds him. He takes his son inside and sees a surprise! The artwork is fun, the artists have different styles, but capture the likeness of the animated characters while adding in their own touches. If you want more Incredibles story, find it in the comic book!
Five Masks out of Five!
