Word is already spreading.
On the West Coast of the US:
Ten years ago, a crack commando unit was sent to the dungeon by the Inquisition for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the pontificate, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you are demon possessed, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The X-Team.
As for the East Coast:
Who ya gonna call?

Update: John Bugay in comments has informed TBlog News Service that the Vatican has denied the story. (Actually, it would be more accurate to say part of the story). This is good news for the X-Squad and the Demonbusters. They'll not have to compete with the crop of crack Vatican stormtroopers with their holy water and crucifixes.
That said, they have not, to our knowledge, denied this story.
We at TBlogNS hope that X-Team and Demonbusters have received their certification from the Vatican.
Actually, the Vatican denied this story: http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/Quirks/2007/12/29/vatican_denies_exorcist_expansion/7287/
ReplyDeleteWell, John, after the truth leaked out, the Vatican had to put out this cover story to conceal the identity of the Demonbusters. If the dark side knew the identity of the Demonbusters, that would tip them off in case the Demonbusters staged a raid on Pandemonial exurbs.
ReplyDeleteThe article said:
ReplyDeleteStudents on the Vatican course will be taught to be vigilant for signs of Satan's presence, including speaking in unknown languages and showing disproportionate physical strength. (emphasis mine)
The signs are broad enough to include all charismatics and the Power Team!
I've always been suspicious of the Power Team...
ReplyDeleteHeavy sigh...
ReplyDeleteIt is just SOOOO hard to keep up with the Vatican ...
