I have been to Jury Duty twice.
Both times one of the attorneys asked me to leave.
I really want to sit on a jury just once, so I can mark that off the bucket list.
Moonshadow’s cape is everywhere shown as blue; the scrap flapping out of the vent is black. Could be a colouring mistake, but more likely, as you note, it’s a fakeout — especially given that the size of the vent is way too small for Moonshadow except when he’s shrunk, and were he shrunk, the cape would be a tiny little scrap.
I think it’s a continuity/consistency goof that Ultima and/or Gravpulse don’t just fly up and look in the shaft. Having pursuers who can manoeuvre in three dimensions, even if they aren’t that observant or intelligent, makes some evasions more contrived than others.

The lights are out.
But yes, it’s an obvious distraction.

Maybe they just don’t expect to catch him this way (since they won’t fit), but very much expect this to end in more indignity (cloud of glitter/smoke to the face).

If they looked, they might see that there would be a problem with even a small kid fitting inside the vent unshrunk, especially with the helmet and grappler/utility gauntlet. Although it occurs to me now that they might actually guess/assume that he had powers to shrink himself, or something. But they should at least check.

Indeed. Somebody that can shrink and has a black cape/cloak/jacket. Moonshadow went elsewhere. Hmm, now the remnants of Cat Steven’s song are going through my head, but I don’t think that will lead to plot points in this story.
I’d say they are wasting way to many resources on someone who is just trying to not be framed for something but I believe Zodon. He might intend to use the sphere for less than noble reasons but he also sort of needs to stop it from destroying the earth because he lives there.
No one in five teams have good dynamics in that test. Over half a team can be sane and capable and the team can still have shitty dynamics.
It was a test of the team leaders.
I mean if the leader is bad enough you can assume bad dynamics but an otherwise great person can get caught up in a shitty system.
One of the participants was horrible and I can’t picture his team not being dysfunctional.
One was sort of a jerk and a hypocrite and I’m guessing is borderline dysfunctional.
One was awesome but the fact that her team fired her for talking about how her team functioned suggests it was dysfunctional. Don’t worry she gets a better team.
One was felt obligated to her teammates who pressured her to be their leader while running nothing by her. R helped her fix it but I’d call that borderline dysfunctional.
One was a bit abrasive at first but turned out to be okay. He looked great leading but was not much help on the crime fighting side and had insecurities about this. But he knew how to at least be mildly helpful and understood the concept of not making things worse. His team responded to him accidentally saying that in public by finding him teacher to help him help more on the crime fighting side without making things worse.
Anyone want to lay odds that Moonshadow is already out of the building, and looking to reenter elsewhere? That looked more like Cecil’s coat then Moonshadow’s cape to me in that vent….
Nah, Moonshadow’s hiding nearby. Even flyers don’t often think to look up, and taking out the lights in that area prevents shadows from giving him away.
Jury Duty is plenty small. For me it was microscopic.

looks like Moonshadow’s faceguard is back….anyone else want to guess that the bit of cape sticking out of the vent is a red herring?
Yeah, not taking that bet.

Ultima’s cape remains blue.

Gravpulse, at least, has a full-face mask.
I was already amazed at Moon Shadow taking out the lights with his throwing crescents.
You pointing out his cape’s different color means the vent is a distraction has blown my mind.
THANK YOU.
Nothing amazes me about Moon Shadow anymore. HE IS BEING TRAINED BY BATMAN.
Less angsty, more emotionally stable, and more kid-friendly Batman but, YES, INDEED.
I’d prefer the Revenant over Batman any day of the week. ^_^
@Rock:
Yeah, true dat.
might be Cecil
Agreed
Well, he did say he’s going to try and pull them away.

And because the Powers and their chums are idiots?
I’m starting to wonder how many of these superteams are borderline disfunctional. Maybe the Revenant should set up a personnel agency?
I’m pretty sure he already did in the form of “The Infinite Vanguard”.
Most of them. Not so long ago Veles ran a little test.
So about one in five teams is not borderline dysfunctional.
Or one in five members of every superteam may be sane, capable agents? ~_^
