Hello, I'm The Crescent Moon
-Hi, The Crescent Moon-
It's been four days since I last patrolled.
It's taking all I have to remain docile
The stench and filth is surrounding me.
It penetrates my senses.
All I want to do is cleanse this city from its garbage.
But I understand now, what I'm doing is wrong.
I'm trying to stay vigilant.

Superheroes have always existed.
We used to call them witches, gods, and demons.
But now TV, movies, and comic books
are making it more socially acceptable
for people to put on a costume and fight crime.
Vigilantism is a crime.
To take the law into your hands and pretend to be Batman
is delusional

What's that?
I call it my "pain stick."
antiscocial
What does it do?
It causes pain.
and to be frank: psychotic behavior.
Ah, so you like to cause pain?
Who doesn't?
The warm night air felt heavy in my chest.
It was hard to breathe.
But THEY made it worse.
I could almost feel it pulsating within him.
He was about to make his move.
I knew I had to do something.
So I did.
But SHE was there.
Well, well. Madame Zephyr.
The Queenpin of Crime.
Brilliant detective work, Crescent Moon.
I should've known you'd have something to do with this.
You've had your hands in every stinking pothole in this city
and I know it.
And like a pothole, you destroy everything in your path.
I've been listening ---
-You're so annoying.
--- and word is, you've been taking care of business.
(dialing)
Well, call me the tax man
'cause I'm here to collect. And you're way overdue.
This is my city. These are my streets.
And I'm here to protect them.
And you're just a speck that I'm gonna wipe clean.
I've kept my eye on you.
I know where you've been. I know where you've slept.
You've been looking for trouble.
Well, you just found trouble.
And it's spelled "The Crescent Moon" with a capital T.
They've been calling you "The Queen of Evil."
I got news for you.
There's a new king in town, and that's me!
I am going to defend this city if it's the last thing...
Sir.
Sir?
I'm going to end you! Do you understand me?
Sir!
What?!
I need you to put your hands behind your back.
You're under arrest.
-But I'm a hero.
Hold still.
You're making a mistake. It's a big mistake.
Don't do it.
I'm gonna get you, Madame Zephyr.
Do you understand me?
You think this is gonna stop me?
Nothing can stop The Crescent Moon!
It was nice talking to you again, Crescent Moon.
The harpy.
I fell right into her trap.
My program provides a safe, open place
for these people to talk about their powers.

Got another one for ya.
We want to help them
and work with them
to make them functioning members of society.
Hello, welcome to the program.
Please state your name for the group.
Hi, I'm The Death.
-Hi, The Death-
(mic squeal)

(boom)
(chime)
Yeah, that's what I do.
With great power comes great responsibility.

Can we cut that?
I think that was Spider-man.
