BubbleGum Crisis:

This is an idea that is an extension of my "Dark Phoenix" storyline,
currently in synopsis form, but not written up. In the events of Dark
Phoenix, Leon finally resigns from AD Police, fed up with dealing with
the bureacratic bullshit. He is eventually retained by the Knight Sabers
as an investagative agent. By the end of the story, he's managed to
'acquire' a hardsuit of his own (Okay, okay, he offs the previous owner
and filches it! But the jerk was already dead anyway). Sylia has agreed
to let him onto the front lines, as soon as he gets up to par. Which
means combat simulations, training, etc. Let's face it, a stock Leon
isn't up to the KS standard. Meanwhile Mackie has taken the newly
acquired Phoenix armor apart and is rebuilding it to KS specs (it was a
little behind KS state of the art, with a few important exceptions which
made it a valuable acquisition).
At Genom headquarters, the Boomer builder from Bubblegum Crisis #8 (I'll
look up his name later) has been sprung from jail. Wat, you think Genom
is going to let go the guy who build boomers that were capable of
defeating the Knight Sabers? It was just bad timing that they picked
that moment to upgrade their armor. Anyway, he's been assigned to the
task of analysing an interesting piece of salvaged equipment, namely,
the Griffon from 'Revenge Road'. It seems good ol' Gibson incorporated a
Boomer brain into the thing, and Genom wants it analysed. They think it
might have military applications. Of course, our friend the builder of
boomer sees it as an opportunity to take another shot at the Knight
Sabers. Seems he's dug up the identity of one of them, namely one Priss
S. Asagari, pop singer and future street pizza. He rebuilds the Griffon,
arming it with a whole slew of goodies. He sends it out after Priss, who
is apparently killed (but actually survives, and lays low at Sylia's
request).
Leon finds out about this, and essentially snaps. He pulls a 'Priss',
taking the Phoenix hardsuit and a new prototype motoslav that Mackie was
working on, code-named: Streehawk (yes, Mackie has been watching too
many American reruns). He then begins track the Griffon, while Sylia
works to find out who reactivated it, and where how they found out Priss
was a Knight Saber (Priss has a really bad case of cabin fever at this
point). the Griffon itself also still has all of Gibson's rage and
hatred locked up in its circuits, and it isn't behaving too predictably
either.

So, Whadaya think?

WRITE IT OR DIE.  8)

Seriously, I love the idea, even if you're just dragging out loose ends,
or supposed loose ends in the BG Crisis episodes, to make the story.
