Sea Devil was nearly helpless against Cobi, the monstrous menace from beyond. Fortunately he had allies, and he's mercifully been given the opportunity to reclaim his grapnel rod. But the
tide seemed to be turning, as the creatures master zeroed in on them with its tentacles. Gigantic serpentine appendages beyond the size of any comparison were coming with the intention to hold the heroes in its grasp before euthanizing their free will and having its way with them.
Before we came here Snapper mentioned his book. A memoir of his adventures with the Justice League. The catalyst for his becoming the League's first honorary member was that his clothing was laced with something -- something that the alien conqueror to be could not contend with. I read that book, but I'm a little fuzzy."Snapper! You of all people should know exactly how to bring Starro down!" He barked into his intercom.
"In your book you mentioned his weakness, what was it? Was it lime or clay or something? At least one of us should be able to get our hands on it?"The tentacle was drawing nearer. Conscious of the fact that he was nowhere near fast enough to escape it's slithering charge, he requited it's approach. Nearing its tip, he ducked before front flipping on top of it and running, seeing himself without any option but to attempt to outmaneuver it. Aware of the fact he was likely to be nabbed, he activated his most unanticipatable defense.
All throughout his body, he felt like he was sweating petroleum. A thin but dense jelly pumped out of his pores and pushed through his suit. Rendering nearly all potential points of contact, save the soles of his shoes and his gloves, as slick as a frozen lake, coated with crude oil, and non-stick cooking spray.
