I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
Heh, not that that's bad, but they look like a Yuppie motorcycle gang. 
Dec out.
So, let me get this right...
On our Earth, the Clockwork are Cute Rusty Windup Toys of Death. In Praetoria, they are Sleek Sexy Maintenance Drones of Death?
to 
TO THE END!Villains are those who dedicate their lives to causing mayhem. Villians are people from the planet Villia!
If you check the city terminals you can see all the GR enemy groups. Think iirc there is 3 or 4 different clockwork types.
Wonder which one these are!
Also i just wanted to say "sometimes there are ghosts in a machine"

Yep, I remember getting the romans in a couple of my old paper missions before that issue went live. One of them was filled with allies and auto completed when I got near the end boss.

They look like they all watched Kill Bill and then decided to make a gang based around the antics of the protagonist.

/cracktheory The Clockwork King is Penny's real father. Both are powerful psychics, the CK is obsessed with protecting her, refers to her as his Clockwork 'PRINCESS', not 'Queen', we don't really know what CK looked like before his accident, and Mr. Yin strikes me as a suspicious fellow. (Seriously, why does an Asian grocery store need to sell clothing and all those weapons?)

That's actually not entirely unlikely. It would really depend upon when Blue Steel *ahem* encountered the Clockwork King when he was still human. He is depicted during that event as being a young man, but he may have had time to get his groove on and make a Penelope. |

Hmmmm...you may be onto something there. It takes away from the pervy jokes (or does it? 
), but it makes a bit more logic.
Dec out.

Wow. I never considered that possibility. Makes a lot of sense, though.

It's also entirely possible that simply because of their psychic connection, the Clockwork King thinks she's his daughter, or at least that he himself is her proper father figure.
Mind you, I like the theory either way, it's just that casting doubt on Mr. Yin rubs me the wrong way from a narrative perspective.

It is better to ask forgiveness than permission.

I am always amused when I enter a really old newspaper mission (often a grab the glowie from the Hellions or Skulls), and find the warehouse or cave is totally empty, except for the glowie.|

It's like the bad guys got bored waiting so long for me to show up that they all decided to go hang out at Pocket D or something and just forget about whatever it was they were guarding.
Quote:
I'd thought of something similar too - like I'm totally not getting a sexual vibe from the Clockwork King talking about Penny - it's just an insanely possessive vibe, without even any twisted sort of romantic feelings.

Also, part of why I like my theory is not just bias, but because it allows me to imagine the Clockwork King kind of turning into a Batman the animated series Mr. Freeze figure.
