COSTUMED CRIMEFIGHTERS ACADEMY – Online (for the duration of the emergency)Review Lesson #30: Secret Identities 2. So, we at last get to see our applicant in street clothing. (About time, too – his professional attire hasn’t been washed in so long it could probably get up and fight crime on its own.) But there’s a few problems. Chief among them is an unwillingness to completely lay down the Phantom Commando persona; he apparently cannot resist having the same logo he wears on his attire displayed on his t-shirt as well. Coupled with his motorcycle/sidecar combination, it’s a dead giveaway, and sunglasses won’t help. (The “glasses disguise” of C. Kent, Class of ‘38, Dean Emeritus, is generally regarded as a early superhero fluke, and not likely to be “fallen for” again.) By the way, Lamont is also a problem in terms of names. If it’s his real name, the uncommonness of it makes him easier to trace to the hotel and the recent killing there; if assumed, it’s been used before (refer to L. Cranston, Class of ‘31). His second problem is the kid. The memory of the recent plane crash near his base of operations is still fresh in the minds of the townsfolk, and surely pictures of the LONE PASSENGER STILL MISSING have circulated. He runs the risks of: a) A “townie” recognizing the red hair (if nothing else) and immediately informing the authorities or, b) she will see herself on a poster or a TV news broadcast resulting in her memory kicking back in and contact them herself. And, of course, unknown to either of them is the local police chief’s curiosity being aroused, leading him to stakeout the only location in the area where our applicant gets his training manuals. If he can “get over himself” long enough, our aspiring protagonist might want to park his vehicle out of audio range, walk near the store and check for any curious folks in the vicinity before entering.
