Each of the 50 stars on the costume of this freedom-loving champion represents a different state--and a different superpower related to that state! All the FSOJ need do to activate a state-based ability is push the appropriate star. Depressing New Jersey's five-pointed symbol, for example, allows him to shoot noxious fumes out of his gauntlets. Pushing the Hawaii star gives him control over lava. Pushing New York gives him translation abilities (because of the state's large percentage of immigrants.) The star of Texas gives him rocket boots (for NASA's Houston HQ). And so on.
In addition, rotating the star for a state enables a completely different, second state power. Thus, while pressing Alaska's star bestows the ability to shoot snow, turning that star allows the FSOJ to see Russia from his house.

Showed this one to my wife and she just about fell over laughing. Nice work, Duffy's!
ReplyDeleteWhat effect does Indiana have?
ReplyDeleteI will consult with Pete about Indiana. He's not that familiar with your adopted state, Andrei, so we may have to do some research. (I'm tempted to say you can sing every Hoagy Carmichael song, but that's not so useful against supervillains.)
ReplyDeleteHey, Hoagy's not just from Indiana, he's from Bloomington!
ReplyDeleteShall I consult with Julie and see if we can suggest some powers?
This character's possibilities for powers is endless!
