Earlier this week I posted a story about Phoenix Jones, Seattle’s resident superhero and media whore, and how his claims of being injured on the job have the pungent scent of bullshit. This activated the Crime Fighter Distress Beacon, which was answered by a handful of commenters like “The Flash” and “Lonehorseman,” who defended Jones as a great person (though they failed to provide any proof of their hero’s supposed wounds). Tommy Garcia then summed up the dynamic beautifully.He wrote:I love how all the guys defending Phoenix Jones have superhero names. Faster than a speeding blog troll! Able to leap tall gaps of reason in a single bound! It’s the Dorkmen! Not be outdone, a second commenter, “Immigration Man,” noticed Garcia’s implied Latino heritage and shot back with:OK Tommy, get your green card out, Immigration Man would like to see it and his super power is the old deportation ray. Since we never heard back from Tommy, I’m beginning to worry that he may have indeed been the victim of the dreaded Deportation Ray.
