LNH: Classic LNH Adventures #102: Just Imagine Saxon Brenton's RACCies! Part One

[Arthur Spitzer]

In this weeks reposting of stuff you can find in the eyrie archive
https://archives.eyrie.org/racc/lnh/
we have the first section of Just Imagine Saxon Brenton's RACCies!


And now we're in 2005 -- a year in which people were still enthused by
the RACCies enough to write a long cascade devoted to it and Saxon Brenton
who was in charge of the RACCies at the time.  Anyways..

Drew Perron kicks off the cascade with the first issue.  Manga Man is
bored.  Will this be a great thing -- or the greatest thing ever?

And Jamie Rosen follows up with #2.  Will Pointless-Awards-Man II exclaim,
"But.... but....!"  And will anonymous RACC reader #2 follow that
thought up with, "Wait a minute!"


Find that out and more in...

Manga Man yawned.

Now, don't get him wrong.  It wasn't that he didn't like the way
things were.  After all, he'd basically succeeded in his original
mission: manga and anime were popular and well-appreciated in the US.
And it wasn't as if he *wanted* to go back to fighting net.heroes for
a living; he enjoyed his new career as the mascot and chief
spokespersonl for OsakaPop Publications.

It was just... kinda boring.

He put on his virtual-reality visor and tapped his finger on the
pseudoreal icons.  Hmmmm.  Speaking of net.heroes, he hadn't looked at
rec.arts.comics.creative for awhile.  Maybe there was a new issue of
Easily-Discovered Man (okay, probably not, but...)

Ah, the RACCies.  He remembered the good old days... the pomp, the
majesty, the time Pointless Awards Man tried to fuse ASH and
Superguy... good times.

The computer ding!ed, breaking him from his reverie.  Virus found?

Looking closer, he gasped.  There was a virus encoded directly into
the plain text of the emai!  How devious (and totally impossible)!

Tapping a few keys, he isolated a copy of the virus and executed it.
He gasped.  The virus would lay in wait until the day of the vote,
then would take the winner of each... and delete every post ever made
by that person!  No archive would be safe!  It would be as if an LNH
author had never existed... he shuddered.

Manga Man stood, a nonexistent gust of wind making the spikes of his
hair wave dramatically.  "I must go and warn the LNH, before it's...
TOO LATE!"

With that, he leapt out the window and was gone.

And, unseen within the quantum foam of the mangatech hard drive, a
malign intelligence smiled.

--

Cascade bait much? ``

Andrew "NO .SIG MAN" "Juan" Perron, who *is* going to send in
nominations, darnit.

JUST IMAGINE.... Saxon Brenton's RACCies! #2
by Jamie Rosen


"Aaaaaaaah!" screamed Mangaman as he plumetted through the air. He
should have known not to request an office on the fifteenth floor, what
with the Net.villainous penchant for leaping out of windows.

Thankfully, an LNH flight.thingee was flying by at a dangerously low
altitude at just that moment, the sunroof open to catch some rays. And,
apparently, some Mangamen.

"Oof!" Mangaman grunted as he landed on the floor of the
flight.thingee, his eyes temporarily replaced with spirals as stars
twirled about his head. Recovering, he began to explain, "We have to
get the rest of the LNH, because --" he glanced up to see the identity
of his rescuer. "You!"

"What, you were expecting someone else?" asked Boysenstrawblue Alan
Berry, the Fastingest Man Alive.

----

Meanwhile, somewhere between this world and the next....

"I can't be dead," Pointless-Awards-Man II exclaimed. "I mean, I just
can't!"

"We saw your head explode," said anonymous RACC reader #1.

"But.... but....!"

"Wait a minute!" interjected anonymous RACC reader #2.

"What?" asked anonymous RACC reader #1.

"Did we really?"

"Hmm?"

"Well, if you think about it, all we really did was *read about* his
head exploding. We're RACC readers, after all, not RACC, uh, seers."

"Hmm."

----

WHO is Boysenstrawblue Alan Berry?
WHAT is the true fate of Pointless-Awards-Man II?
WHERE is Pointless-Awards-Man I?
WHEN will Andrew send in his nominations?
WHY can't we all get along?
and
HOW do you do?

Find the answers to all, some, or none of these questions in the
next...
