Before we start today, here's what Round looks like in the game:
Sexy little beast, ain't he?
See, that's why I considered him to be a mix of Batman and Deadpool He looks like a mixture of both, plus his guns and gadgets. If he could teleport manually, then he would officially be their love child.
Round himself hasn't been active in a while, so when he got back, he immediately got a message from Oracle, formerly known as Batgirl.
Not that Batgirl, thankfully.

She's become kind of the Justice League's hacker/techie person since she was crippled by the Joker. She immediately calls back Round and his fellow heroes to the Watchtower for a special mission from the king of the crappy comic book movies himself, Green Lantern. Or the one who was in the movie, there's like a million of them. Clustered around him were a bunch of wannabe superheroes, with their crappy internet username personas. And behind all of that was a friggin' Christmas tree.
Seen at bottom right corner: wannabe superhero.
Ryan Reynolds, I mean Hal Jordan, immediately asked for the heroes' assistance against a villain called the Orange Lantern. Round himself had only thought that Lanterns came in the green variety, so this information blew his mind. What was the Orange Lantern up to anyway? Did he have a doomsday weapon? Was he going to bomb Gotham City or Metropolis? Was he going to ensure that Blake Lively never starred in a good movie again as punishment for being the only good thing about the Green Lantern movie?
So clearly he had already ruined Blake Lively's career.

Since Orange Lantern had already put Blake Lively in two of the worst movies of the past two years, he decided to not terrorize insanely hot actresses for a change. Instead, he stole every Christmas present in both Metropolis and Gotham City, and hid them. Even though he hadn't killed anyone or threatened anyone's life, this clearly pissed off Green Lantern just because his citrus flavored counterpart had decided to channel his inner Grinch. Even worse, if the heroes didn't recover the presents before New Year's Eve, he would take all of the presents back to his home planet of Blah Blah Blah. The other heroes rushed off eagerly preparing to find every present while Round laughed at the whole situation, since Hanukkah was already over and because he's Jewish. Yeah, he's Jewish, get over it. The world needs more Jewish heroes. And no, Adam Sandler does not count. But the Thing, Kitty Pryde, Iceman, Sandman (DC version), Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, Moon Knight, The Atom and Magneto are Jewish. Look it up. Anyway, Round was suddenly contacted by the closest thing to a sidekick that he has, a fellow superhero named Frostbyte. He requested that they meet up in the Metropolis Little Bohemia police station. He teleported there, but not before he bumped into an apparent relative of Superman.
Superman? Super-Badass is more like it. *squeeeee*
Note: Connor Kent, whoever you are, you're awesome. Please don't sue me.
Anyways, we now find Round back at the police station, where he met up with Frostbyte long enough to take a group photo, but thankfully nothing like the ones tween girls post on Facebook where they all pretend to be ducks.
Above: Duckface.
Yeah, he had a much dumber name before I renamed him. No matter. He disappeared literally seconds after I took the picture (I do know Frostbyte's player in real life, so whatever), so that was the end of this misadventure. Even though no presents were saved and Blake Lively's career wasn't restored, all in all, a pretty relaxing day for the greatest non-licensed DC superhero.
Considering Frostbyte: I'm thinking of making a post about his origins as well. I'll have to get in contact with his player and see. If you want to know more about him, please let me know, or I'll just do it anyway.
