Fun news for RG fans... I've managed to sneak into the RGverse, and came out with a whole bunch of interviews from your favourite heroes and villains.
So, without further ado, here's Issue One of The Eyrie!
THE EYRIE
ISSUE ONE: A catnap with the Prowler
Jakku: Hello, Mr. Prowler! Mind if I call ya Prowly? Great.
Prowler: You may call me whatever you wish; my actual name, for example, would suffice. It is no great secret, after all, thanks both to Detective Fate's persistence and my own lack of interest in concealing it.
Jakku: So, you're one of the Gallery's greatest villains at the moment. Sadistic choices seem to prevail, from what I've seen... Is this a personal choice, or a means to an end?
Prowler: Choices are never sadistic, they cannot be. Such a description can only accurately be ascribed to the people who make them.
But I digress, if you must know it is a "means," as you so eloquently put it; a prodding, in fact. I encourage people to examine themselves. We often like to imagine we would act heroically in life's most trying situations, I seek to dispel this myth and enlighten my prey to their own cowardly, selfish nature.
And I always succeed.
Jakku: We haven't seen you in action for a while, something big planned for Season Two, or has the recent quick succession of lost lives got you freaked?
Prowler: You speak of life as a possession to be had, it is not. Within your teetering worldview, however, my answer is this: I have lost but one life, and I relinquished it willingly a long time ago.
Jakku: So, attempted suicide at 19... That must've been harsh. Tell us about it.
Prowler: Your curiosity is insatiable. Very well, to be brief, I lost my parents to a serial killer in Saint Louis. There were other contributing factors, but those are a tale for another day, reporter.
Humanity failed me, and in doing so it exposed itself to me. I had caught a glimpse of what 'life' really was, who human beings really were. I had seen the dark underbelly of the beast, and I wanted no part in it.
But, as you can see, the beast would not allow me to free myself of it, so I have devoted my lost life to opening the eyes of humanity to their own dark, innermost being.
Jakku:Hm...
Well, from what I've seen, this cat has claws. Being a villain, I assume you have a good idea of what's happening on the dark side of the force. Any new up-and-coming villains to watch out for? Or any heroes you wish you could expect to die?
Prowler: The cause of Chaos lost a powerful emissary with the murder of Fever at the hands of the one who calls himself the 'Cleric.' He is strong, he did what Detective Fate could not. He succeeded where Fate will always fail.
I will be watching the Cleric rise in his quest for the 'greater good,' and I will most certainly be watching Detective Fate fail to do the same. Who knows? Perhaps he'll learn someday, hopefully at my hand.
He taught me a life-changing lesson years ago, and on my honor, I will return the favor.
... Someday.
Jakku: Okay, thanks Prowly, this has been immensely insightful.
Feel free to exit through the nearest window, the police are at the door.
I have connections, so technically this studio is neutral ground, but you might want to take the other exit anyway.
So, that was the Prowler!

ISSUE TWO: Gods, Guitars and Kitties with Mega Neko
Jakku: And here we are with renowned hero Mega Neko! Give him a big hand!
Now, down to business...
You have very unique powers, I have to say, with your choice battlemount being a Nyan Cat. How did these powers come about?
Neko: *Claps* It is certainly a pleasure, Mr. Ebansu. As for my powers, I find predictability is a weakness. It was not a choice: My divine sponsor, Freya gave me the service of her Valkyries. Unfortunately, she has few worshippers, so they had to downsize. So now all of the Valkyries are
cats.
Jakku: You were part of the very first Rogue's Gallery plot, in which you tackled renowned social nuisance the Black Mist. Was that an easy win for you?
Neko: Mist...What a wonderful woman. For me? Not particularly. I...I have issues fighting women, I am afraid. Forunately, my allies Bellephron and Shift had no such compunctions. I did regret having to resort to physical violence, but everything turned out okay. Really, I was not the one who saved London. Shift and Bellephron did most of it.
Jakku: Do you get along well with other heroes? How do the more serious heroes react when you join the fray?
Neko: I usually get along well with others, I think. I doubt anyone minds. I get things done, I never purposely kill anyone, and I always try to do what I think is right. I think that all of those - especially the latter - are more important than being "normal." Besides, like I said, predictability is a weakness.
Jakku: And as a last word, who's your favourite ally to have worked with? You've worked with a fair few heroes across Season One, after all, and is there anyone you'd like to work with for Season Two?
Neko: Hm...I actually liked working with everyone. I know it may seem like a sort of a cop-out, but I can not choose. Jeremy is nice, and Haze was a nice person, despite being a mercenary. Shift, he is very cool, and in the end, he was the one who saved London. Bellephron is a funny guy. I mean, everyone brings something to the table. Without the people who work with me, whether they are cats or other super heroes, I would be useless. Just some guy with a guitar who can see Norse gods. Is anyone an island? People are social animals.
Jakku: Well, thanks for this insightful interview! The Eyrie wishes you as much luck as we can give for Season Two, but not too much because we can't be biased otherwise the villains'll blow up my studio.
...Again.

ISSUE THREE: Shameless flirting from Icira Witherflame
ICIRA'S EVIL LAIR
A DIFFERENT STATE ENTIRELY
A shadowy figure dropped to the floor, near to Icira.
The lights around him smashed and died.
Suddenly, a whole new set of lights flashed around both of them.
"HELLO MS. WITHERFLAME!"
Jakku smiled, taking off the trenchcoat to reveal a smart suit, a mic in one hand.
"Thank you for agreeing to take part in the Eyrie!"
*cheezy opening music plays*
Jakku: Hey kids! It's me, Jakku Ebansu! And I'm back with another lump of Eyrical goodness! And here tonight with me is my hostess with the mostest this evening, having broken into her lair, Ms. Icira Witherflame! Give her a big hand!
Icira: Goodness me, is that a camera? Hello, world! Better watch your back! *evil laughter*
Jakku: So, Ms. Witherflame. You seem to have a unique sense of a humour when it comes to your plots. And let's face it, you have to if you want to team up with Disarray... Tell me, why so unserious?
Icira: Hah! Good one, Jakku. That's actually part of the reason I became a villain in the first place—for the sheer fun of it. Not for money or power; I have both of those already. I enjoy the challenge of fighting against the heroes of the world, and I never take it too seriously. Don't be fooled, though—as we go along, I'm going to get more complex and more dangerous, just to see how the forces of good deal with it. I don't exactly have high expectations. *chuckles*
Jakku: Now, now. It's common knowledge that, to escape capture, Icira Witherflame uses avatars of herself as body doubles, right folks? Doesn't it ever get confusing, being one of those avatars?
Icira: Confusing? Not usually. I'm careful to properly label each connection so I know exactly where I'll wake up. Admittedly, there are mix-ups occasionally, but they don't last long, provided my computer system doesn't have a heart attack. Now, when I'm posing as someone else, then it can get confusing, because then I have to get used to a new appearance, a new voice....new plumbing, occasionally....but that's a story for another time, I think.
Jakku: Just a quick thought, in your last plot, we saw some foreshadowing at the end about your son. Is there a Mister. Witherflame, or do us average joes still have a chance?
*Jakku winks*
Icira: *laughs* My "son", as I called him, isn't actually related to me by blood. It's just sort of like the relationship between scientist and magnum opus—they view it as their baby. This new henchman is my greatest creation to date, so it's my "baby", if you will. So no, there's no "Mr. Witherflame". As for whether average joes have a chance with me....I guess if you're into that sort of thing. *winks*
Jakku: Okay, finally, who's your favourite villain to work with, and your least favourite hero to fight against? This is always an interesting question to pose, no matter what side of the alignment spectrum.
Icira: My favorite villain to work with would have to be Disarray. He's good at what he does, he doesn't take things too seriously, he's easy-going, an all-around okay guy. True, he can get on my nerves at times, but he always means well. From a villainous perspective, that is. As for my least favorite hero to fight against, I'd have to say Jeremiah Darius. The kid's too eager to dispatch the villains—so eager, in fact, he's willing to become a villain himself to do it. What ever happened to the good old days when heroes were heroes and villains were villains? Things were so much less frustrating then.
Jakku: Such an insightful interview! We wish ya the very best in season two, Icira! Now, Ebansu, away!
Jakku throws a smoke bomb.
The room is thrown into darkness, and Jakku leaves.
There is no sign he has ever been there, save for a 'ROGUES' GALLERY- THE EYRIE' T-shirt

ISSUE FOUR: A Coffee Break with Parasite
*Jakku Ebansu enters a coffee house, orders coffee, begins reading a book*
*Parasite enters coffee house*
Ah nuts I forgot!
*Jakku Ebansu dashes towards Parasite, brandishing notepad*
Hello, Mr. Para- *pant* -site! Welcome to the Rogue's Gallery Eyrie!
Hello mister that just interrupted me while drinking my coffee. Oh the Eyrie now I remember, yeah it's nice to be here kind of a weird moment though.
So, Mr. Parasite, how've you been? Life treating you well?
Well live's been going well got a lot of studying going on it's kind of cutting on my time as a vigilante but I think I can deal with it.
The superhero line of work seems to suit you pretty well... How you finding it? Any heroes you'd appreciate thanking for their assistance?
I've been doing well as a superhero, somewhat I would like to thank the Masked Scarlet though she helps me a lot. *Parasite sips from his coffee quietly before looking back at Jakku*
Okay, what about villains you'd rather mow down if you saw them crossing the street?
Well I would've liked to get a rematch against Fever but then he died...yeah that put a damper on my plans. There's really no one else I haven't exactly met a lot of villains sadly.
Now, finally, Season Two begins soon. Any plans? Hopes and dreams? Senoritas?
I'll just let the wind guide me whatever happens happens after all I mean I just wish I could have a little more excitement normal thugs don't do it for me anymore. As for the ladies...well it couldn't hurt could it *he grins lightly*
Okay, thankya very much for partaking in this reasonably incredibly delayed Eyrie!
Now, where'd I leave my book...?
I think your book is in your pocket by the way.
EPILOGUE:
*Jakku is sitting in a leather armchair, next to a fire*
*he removes a pipe from his mouth*
Ah, hello dear viewers.
Now, today, I talk to you about the Eyrie's future. My good friend FlazeyHazeHaze has shown interest in helping me with this ever so noble endeavour of investigative journalism, so he shall begin doing his own interviews, as Eyrie Co-Anchor.
Take it away, Flazey boy...
*Stellar Haze groans as he crossed his legs on the floor*
Hello everyone I'm Stellar Haze or Flaze or whatever you feel like calling me...first of all I'd like to say that I'm honor to be Co-Anchor and that I'm still thinking about who I'll do first but I might do an interview on a well known Technopath...I'll leave it to guessing there. Oh and another thing...Jakku why the hell do I have to sit on the floor while you get the cozy armchair?
Because I'm the sober one, Hazey.
*Parasite enters coffee house*
