FADE IN

INT. DEPARTMENT STORE - NIGHT/DAY

A casually dressed man is perusing the toy aisle.

MAN

Hmm. There doesn’t appear to

be any new Star Wars figures

out. I was so looking forward

to that collector’s bust of

Jango Fett. (beats) That’s odd.

We haven’t had any new figures

in over six months. (beats)

I sense something terribly

amiss.

TITLES:

Blackhole presents:

“Collector’s Bust”

“The saga of Bluewing continues..”

(Bluewing created by: Berkley Priest)

EXT. OUTSIDE DEPT. STORE – BACK PARKING LOT

The man notices a fat man dressed in a messy T-shirt and shorts speaking with an employee of the department store.

He overhears them talking. There seems to be a shady deal

taking place.

EMPLOYEE

Here are those new exclusive

figures everyone is looking for.

And they’re all yours.

The fat man who is obviously a toy monger grins fiendishly as he examines the box.

TOY MONGER

Exellent.

He runs his fingers through the carded figures.

TOYMONGER

Now they will have to come to

me if they want their new figures!

And their will be a high price

to pay.

Toymonger cackles evily.

The man doesn’t like what he sees.

MAN

This looks like a job for (beats)

The man disappears from site for a second. He emerges in masked crime-fighting outfit.

MAN

Bluewing!

Bluewing suddenly descends on Toymonger and the employee.

BLUEWING

Your toy-scalping days are over,

Toymonger!

Toymonger and the employee are surprised.

TOYMONGER

So. Bluewing. Don’t you have

anything better to do?

BLUEWING

Hording exclusive toys and

charging a higher price for them

makes it hard for children to

get a hold of their favorite

action figures. Which affects

their playtime. There is no deed

more dastardly than messing with

these children who are the future

of this very planet. The same

world and the same future that

you and I will someday live in.

And when you mess with children

(beats) you mess with the whole

world, pal. Namely me!

Bluewing unsheaths his Katana.

BLUEWING

And there just happens to be

a bluelight special today on

(beats) Justice!

Bluewing leaps to attack Toymonger. Toymonger reaches

into his fanny pack and pulls out some special

collector’s cards.

TOYMONGER

Try these hard to find steel

collector’s cards on for size!

As Bluewing lands and slices a cardboard box, Toymonger

leaps away and throws his cards. Bluewing manages to

dogde the attack and the cards go flying into a nearby

box.

BLUEWING

You’ll have to do better than that,

Toymonger!

TOYMONGER

Oh I shall. (beats)

Exclusive cromium foil attack!

Bluewing is bombarded with what appears to be cromium

foil all over his body and encases him.

TOYMONGER

At last I have a real exclusive!

The rare Cromium covered Bluewing!

Toymonger laughs meglomaniacally. Suddenly Bluewing

uses his Katana to cut through foil and free himself.

He leaps into the air and prepares to come down on

Toymonger.

BLUEWING

Not today, Toymonger!

Toymonger is frozen in terror.

BLUEWING

Bluewing is exlusively

(beats)

For the people!

As Bluewing makes his last remark he slices through

Toymonger. With another quick array of slices, he renders

Toymonger into nothing but a bust made of flesh.

Bluewing looks over at the employee.

BLUEWING

I think you have some explaining

to do to your superiors.

The employee is frozen in fear. Bluewing looks back

down on the lifeless stump of a flesh bust that is

what is left of Toymonger. He smirks.

BLUEWING

Now that’s what I call a

“Collector’s Bust”.

IRIS OUT TO BLACK.
