Paraphernalia
Designed by Abe Jenkins, the MK-II Beetle armor is a battle-suit constructed of magnesium alloy, providing the wearer with a high degree of protection against injury. The suit contains power-boosting circuitry which augments her strength to several times that of a normal human being enabling her to lift (press) about a ton, 1000 pounds per arm. The suit’s power source is a microwave processor built into the helmet. The helmet has an antenna path that allows reception and ultra-efficient conversion into energy of microwaves at many prevalent frequencies, giving the suit a constantly replenishing power supply. The microwave processor sometimes jams nearby television reception. A mini-computer built into the chest piece feeds data to her helmet on her opponents probable movements, enabling her to anticipate their moves. In order for the computer to provide this tactical information, it must have sufficient data on that opponent. The battle-suit contains a number of other special features. The gloves of each hand contain pneumatic suction-grippers, enabling the Beetle to cling to walls or lift things with her finger tips. Also, each glove contains circuitry that enables her to shoot an electrostatic blast called “Electro-Bite.” The Electro-Bite is discharged by touching the second and third finger sheath of each hand together and pointing with the first and fourth fingers. The Electro-Bite has sufficient power to blast a one foot diameter hole through a 3 foot think brick wall at fifteen feet. Such a blast diverts all available power to the gloves, thus temporarily immobilizing other weaponry. The final feature of the MK-II Beetle armament is the ultra-tough mylar wings powered by super-efficient micro-motors which enable her to fly by mimicking the complex motion of an actual beetle’s wings. Stored beneath dome-like armored sheaths on her back when not in use, the wings can be unsheathed by cybernetic command. The wings enable her to fly at a normal cruising speed of 60 miles per hour. By diverting all of her power into the wings, she can reach a top speed of 100 miles per hour for as long as the power holds out.
