When Guardians Fall In Love
Episode 5 of The Guardians of Justice begins with Knight Hawk turning to Golden Goddess as the next Guardian to interrogate. He heads off to visit her in her home, the Yeksal Realm. Hawk is determined to get to the bottom of Marvelous Man’s emotional state just before he died. The Guardians of Justice continue their investigation into Marvelous Man’s death by questioning Golden Goddess. She reveals that Marvelous Man was in a great deal of pain and had been for some time. ..
Both Marvelous Man and Golden Goddess were working together to take down a guy called Commander Zedd. This occurred days before his death.
Goddess reflects on how weak and gullible Marvelous Man was, comparing his mental state to a child. As she starts using her manipulative powers against Hawk, Awesome Man senses this and shows up to stop her, saving Hawk in the process.
The team heads back to the Hawk’s Nest, where Hawk admits he doesn’t need to interrogate Awesome Man. Why? Well, he knows the guy has an alibi.
Hawk tells Little Wing that he and Awesome Man have been having problems because they’re too close. This could mean that they’re emotionally compromised.
This is a story of vengeance, of a docile hero who goes on a rampage after his lover is killed, and of the crooked cops who are responsible for his death.
Marvelous Man threw her into Bedlam Asylum after she broke the superhero code. Unfortunately, when she got out, she became part of a crime syndicate. However, she is also partly good and this is just as well, given that she’s Hawk’s next port of call. ..
Speaking to Meow about the case, she mentions how the Mellow Devil is a lucrative drug and knows a guy who could be responsible for distributing this out. The Mellow Devil is a powerful drug that can be bought and sold easily, and it’s known to be dangerous. If you’re ever in danger of being addicted to it, you should seek help from someone who knows about this drug and can help you get rid of the addiction.
Meanwhile, Speed is called by Motion Blur, who admits to stealing the caltronite bullet from Lockwood. He also mentions how he’s been set-up by someone who has “got inside his head.”
The Speed wants to question the man, but he’s not having any of it. The two eventually fight, with The Speed coming out on top with bone-crunching precision. ..
Marvelous Man, the superhero who was known for his amazing feats of strength and agility, died of natural causes. But did he really?
The Episode Review
Hawk investigates Goddess and whether she could be responsible for the death of her husband. He also investigates the distributor of this Mellow Devil, with a cautionary tale about love and how it can compromise someone emotionally.
This seems to be foreshadowing the romance between Awesome Man and Speed, but we’ll have to wait and see whether the show elaborates on that or not.
In the latest episode of Guardians of Justice, Motion Blur admits to stealing a caltronite bullet, but also being under control. However, by who? Could this link to Mind Master like we heard in the last episode? Or is there more going on here than we’re being led to believe?
The mystery of Marvelous Man’s death continues as the remaining episodes of the series air. Whoever killed him left the case wide open, and we’ll have to wait until the last two episodes to find out why. ..
