Vol 7 – The Super Friends
This one time the Space Emperor was hanging with his friends and one of them made a very (x2) funny joke about Dubya mispronouncing a word and the Space Emperor he was all like “good one Frank!” and slapped Frank on the back. But his Emperor-Slap was so powerful it killed Frank and wounded everyone within d6” on a 4+. So the Space Emperor had to make new friends. So he made them. – Sneak Preview of Codex Super Friends

First the Space Emperor made the Green Superfriend, but he liked to wear feathers and a dress and hang out with midgets. So the Space Emperor made the Orange Superfriend but this one time the Space Emperor took him to the mall and lost him. That’s why there are no Orange Space Marines. Then the Space Emperor made the Shocking Pink Superfriend. He like, always knew where to score some weed, but he kept wailing on his guitar like some ninja or something so the Space Emperor kept trying. – Sneak Preview of Codex Super Friends

So then the Space Emperor made himself a Construction Worker Super Friend and since he already had an Indian Chief and a Leather Boy it was getting too much like the Village People. But the Space Emperor doesn’t care what people say so he made himself a Biker Super Friend and a Viking Super Friend and the rumors really started flying. – Sneak Preview of Codex Super Friends

And the Space Emperor was at the height of his popularity so he went and made a Super Friend who was just like that guy on the Led Zeppelin covers. And he made him a vampire, but a good vampire, with a soul and everything and everyone was all like WOWHE’SLIKESOCOOL except for heterosexual men who were all like ‘he’s not so cool’.

Then the Space Emperor made a Super Friend who was like, so cool, that this guy spontaneously combusted into PURE ENERGY and ascended into a higher plane. They say he’s a Rackham figure now. So the Space Emperor got real pissed off and made the Real Pissed Off Super Friend who was bald, and shouted and had spikes. He was kind of cool but not real cool and some people said the Super Friends had Jumped the Shark. – Sneak Preview of Codex Super Friends

And they were right cause like the next Super Friend really liked writing rules and following rules and they called him Mr. Goody Two-Shoes. And the next one had bad asthma and anemia and fallen arches and everyone was all like ‘he’ll never have toughness 5 with those medical problems’. So the Space Emperor real fast made another Super Friend but he worked too fast and he had only one eye and cost too many points but even so he had a lot going for him. – Sneak Preview of Codex Super Friends

So the Space Emperor set up stores all across the Malls of the Space Universe that sold little toy soldiers and told his faithful Red Shirts to look out for the bestest players because they would be the Super Friends.
