Wild Cards/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Great Turtle busting up a heroin ring in Wild Cards I, redeeming Doctor Tachyon from alcoholism, and rescuing Angel face in a single night. The Great and Powerful Turtle indeed. Really, the Turtle is a walking Crowning Moment of Awesome.
  • Modular Man rescuing a girl from King Kong in Aces High. Not just a suspiciously similar substitute but what would appear to be King Kong for all intents and purposes climbing up the Empire State Building.
  • The United States military gets one in Aces High. They thoroughly curb stomp the Swarm during their invasion. The fact that the Aces helped only makes their accomplishment all the sweeter.
