In our last episode, the Lone Wolf was floundering about in the open ocean, wracked by both the storm that destroyed his ship and his own indecision. Ultimately the gods (that's us) who rule his consciousness decided overwhelmingly to flag down the fishing boat on the horizon. And it turns out to be Sig Hansen from "Deadliest Catch"! OK, not really:

Gap-toothed farmer's overalls were not meant to combine with Eighties-era Olivia Newton John colors and fabrics. Sadly, in an alternate Marvel universe, such a fashion tragedy came to pass and resulted in this terribly unfortunate Gambit clone:
I'm from Louisiana. I've known Cajuns. I'm related to Cajuns. And I swear to you on my father's grave: No Cajun would ever -- EVER -- wear something like this. Not in pieces, not together, not in that color, and certainly not without some sort of matching accessories.
What I'm saying is, that alternate future must not only have featured the unholy Redneck Workout line of clothing from JC Penny's but some sort of soul-altering catastrophe that obliterated what limited fashion sense the people of the Bayou State have in our reality. And these are people for whom an undershirt is considered formal wear.
What I think actually happened is that in this timeline, Gambit accidentally mugged Dr. Polaris from DC's Green Lantern, and stole his boots. From that single terrible mistake flowed all the rest. Now it's socially acceptable to wear a terrycloth vest and purple Daisy Dukes when you're a guy.
We can only pray the Sentinels survived to wipe this devastation from the face of the alternate Earth, or we're all in big, big trouble.

The very talented dblade has come through once again, providing some nifty new items for the Headgear-Masks set! I think you're going to get a lot of use out of these as you build your creations, so be sure to drop by in comments and thank him for his time and effort. Great job, dblade, thank you!
These items are now live, though you might need to clear your browser's cached to get them to show if you've recently used the Headgear-Masks set.

This reminds me of my brother's favorite joke.
Q: What did the man say when a herd of elephants went by?
A: He said, "There goes a herd of elephants!"
Q: What did the man say when a herd of elephants wearing sunglasses went by?
A: Nothing, 'cuz he didn't recognize 'em.
We're simple people.

After a bit of back-and-forth about just what a "villain organization" is, I have arrived at a list of the greatest such groups in comics history so you -- yes, YOU! -- can pass judgement on which is the best of the best. Or worst of the worst, if you prefer.
Without further ado, we race to the Bat Cave of Judgement!

Your challenge this week is to design the coolest looking Cyborg character you can. Note that I'll be looking for entries that not only pass the "Does it look awesome" test, but that are actually combinations of organic and technological parts to make up the whole. Pure robots or pure androids, in other words, wouldn't really qualify.
Otherwise the rules are the same:
No limit on entries this week, so give it your best shot!
