Location: The rim of the Grand Canyon, Utah

CANON1CCANYONHEROS

Both sides have arrayed themselves on opposing precipices of the majestic Grand Canyon chasm. On one side : The Justice League of the Galaxy poises for the onslaught in stunning white spandex super-hero outfits with stylish capes made of bio-degradable fabric. Julian Assange, Eddie Snowden, Erin Brokovich, Glenn Greenwald, Peter Schweitzer, Jeremy Schahill, Mandela’s Ghost, Mahatma Ghandi, and the rest, brace for the attack.

ILLUMINATIOn the other side, The Illuminati strike an ominous visage in their matching dark purple velvet nylon hooded robes. Their skull and bones logos glisten threatenly in the sun. The Rockefellers prepare a mound of boulders to toss. The Bohemian Club contingent organizes lightning bolts. The Google executives prepare lethal YouTube video comments. The VC’s rev the engines of flaming Tesla’s and Fiskers. The Rothchild’s scoop up great mounds of fetid cheese. Backed up by legions of Yale and Stanford robotic Frat boys with tiny corporate lobbyist devils on their shoulders, the field of battle hangs on the moment…
