“Alright, people, let’s do this one last time. My name is Anna Reign. I made a deal with a spider demon - please don’t ask - and for the past 3 years, I’ve been the one and only Recluse!”

Hey recluse, I remember you once turned blueberry because of Doc Octavius, how did you get back to normal?
Got juiced. Ask Spider-Berry about it, it’s a… feeling.
Hi, Recluse, I've been hired to dress as a police officer for a Hen (Bachelorette) Party next month, if you don't mind, can I get some sort of confirmation that I won't be eaten for my choice of attire?
Oh you’re good. Cops as a costume or a sexy thing is just fine! Enjoy yourself and stay safe! If the REAL cops show up, though, you call me!
Just an apartment studio? Not to diss your powers Anna but seems a bit simple for a domain. Any special things you can do inside?
Hey! It’s where I’m most comfortable! I also got like all the game consoles.
So this probe, is it still stuck in the Artic? Maybe Sunbeam could swoop in to investigate more before LexCorp takes it someplace more secure?
Sunbeam: Done and done! But it did stay at my apartment for WAY too long. Ended up storing it in Gotham at Arkham Asylum, where the Fool plays.
Galactus eh? Sounds ominous. And given the last alien encounter, probably not friendly. Lois, you spread any word about this to others? Tried to find out more or prepare with other supers?
Duh! We’re just hoping we can kick her butt. Revolution said she was bad news. Apparently the Klyntar were the only thing slowing down her conquest.
To other polycule members, I’m sure you know about Recluse’s interdimensional stuffing sprees. How would you feel if she fattened you up to ludicrous blobby sizes?
Misty: Hot.
Barbs: Hot.
Rider: Hot
Witch: Hot
Revolution: Of higher than average temps.
Hey, great to hear you got a proper prosthetic at last Scorp! And since you mentioned it, how has been dating going? You mentioned seeing someone a while back if I recall?
Y-yeah, well… I’m not gonna go into too many details, but I hid the wedding ring in her wheelchair and she said yes.
stay safe.
We will.
Hear you’ve finally married Iaret! Congrats! How’d that happen?
Wrong Site!
So you’ve married this Geneva then Iaret? Could we hear a bit about her?
Wrong Site!
Trish, have you been to other worlds before this one? Any interesting sights or stories?
Oh yes! I've been all over, hunting down spirits that possess the villains-of-the-week in various spider-worlds. Once I went to a world where everything was all noir, which was kind of fun! Another had everyone behaving like a rubberhose cartoon. And once, Recluse took me to this realm called Heck and I met a bunch of sexy demons...
Don’t worry Trish, loving the cat is totally normal here. But on the topic, as well as in the spirit of the season, Recluse has made her other dimensional galpals pretty massive before! Think I might have seen Taran get planetary. How big have you been able to make your main polycule Recluse, regardless of how temporary the pounds are
For right now, not too big. Other than absolutely stuffing me with hoagies that one time, I'd say I'm pretty normal. However...I recently learned a spell that makes me more voracious... and stretchy... so who knows how big I'll get from that!
Sunbeam, Lois, you two been doing alright! Getting big scoops in news and ice cream parlors?
Lois: Funny you should mention ice cream!
Tammie: Because now you’re hungry for ice cream?
Lois: …yes, but that’s not what I was gonna say! So I managed to sneak into Lexcorp HQ’s secret division during a party and found that they discovered, get this, an Alien Probe that landed in the Arctic! They’re getting it into Metropolis under the codename Project Brainiac and are hoping it can give a tech advantage against supers. Thing is, apparently the probe repeated a series of words in an alien language nobody understood… until I showed it to Tammie! And what did it say, babe?
Tammie: “Galactus is Coming.”
Lois: How mysterious is that!?
Recluse, think you can do the Bye Bye Bye dance at your size?
I can SO do it… just expect a LOT of shaking.
Been a bit, so just a friendly check in on our less sinister six! How have these last couple months been treating you?
Rhino: Being good guy is hard.
Vulture: What Rhino means is that it takes more effort to care about what our actions do for others, but Recluse’s brand of anticapitalist justice means we can still do things like break cop cars or rob the rich to satisfy our needs for feeling bad.
Shocker: Plus, I upgraded everyone’s tech. And the rest of the team paid me for it AND threw me a party as thanks. So, y’know, it’s good having friends.
Soda: Me and Max have been doing this thing where she goes down on me without her protective suit and-
Elektro: BAAAABE! Not in front of EVERYONE!
Scorpion: Uh, and I finally got a proper prosthetic for my arm. Courtesy of Shocker. Made dating more fun.
