We don’t see much of the Inter-Gang crime boss Badger but we see enough to determine he’s a vile sort! After Sugar-Man executes Screamer, who is suspected of the intent to blab about the “Big Caper,” and returns to the hideaway, wounded by The Black Racer, to report to Badger, the kingpin tells the pimped-out criminal, “You did your job, Sugar-Man!<\/em> Sure there was a witness<\/em> — but what<\/em> can Willie Walker say? The kid’s a living clam!<\/em> They’ll get nothing outta him! Not in time to stop what we gotta do! Sorry about the accident!<\/em>” We see Badger is a slit-eyed, bald-headed, rat-faced goon (okay, badger-faced, then!), sporting a bow tie and fat cigar. After listening to his minion fret about The Black Racer, Badger dismisses him with, “Yaaa — Shut up! Inter-Gang<\/em> must carry out what it’s paid to do! bring in the bomb!<\/em>” Upon being asked what does the device do exactly, he responds, “The Apokolips<\/em> people didn’t say! But I’ll bet it’s something wild<\/em> and nasty!<\/em>\u201d He then places a key into the bomb, telling his henchmen, “There! I turn<\/em> this key — and now the bomb is activated!<\/em> And ready to plant!”<\/p>\n

Just then, Orion (with Dave Lincoln in tow) exploded into the room, and Badger orders, “We’ve been warned<\/em> about him!<\/em> Get those special<\/em> guns!” Orion sees they have Apokolips weapons, as Badger turns his trigger-man, telling him, “Stash that pea-shooter, Sugar-Man! Take the bomb! Plant it where the Apokolips crowd designated! Take off, Sugar-Man! We’ll get<\/em> these birds!” As the bad guy and the bomb leave by the back way, Orion’s Mother Box jams the Apokolips-designed weapons and Badger’s gang is subdued. Badger clucks, “You cats cooled us<\/em>, but not<\/em> our bomb!<\/em> By now, it’s being clamped on the communications building<\/em> across town!!” But Mother Box intercedes again and the Inter-Gang plot is thwarted. But Badger still smirks, telling Orion and Dave Lincoln, “Nailing our unit won’t<\/em> stop Inter-Gang!<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

But it sure stopped Badger, dinnit?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
