One of my favorite webcomics is the cheerfully cheesy, nerdy, cheese-nerdy Grrlpower.
In the discussion group someone pondered if the body of the team lead would eventually complete transformation into metal and become immobile, which prompted me to write this variation on Black Sabbath's "Iron Man"
Has she turned to gold?
Has her warmth turned into cold?
We can't read her face
It has stiffened into place.
Once she commanded,
Shooting orders and plasma fire,
Now she's immobile,
A situation most dire.
Her flesh gleamed with might,
Now it traps her in the light.
Power turned to weight,
Metallic is her frozen fate.
ARCHON is helpless
As metal replace her will,
Using their science
To keep her living still.
[Dabbler plays guitar solo]
In this time of dread
Sydney Scoville tilts her head,
Planning as fast as she can,
The Story Arc is Max again!
