Man, not doing so well with the thrice-weekly updates, am I? This time, I have an excuse. (A better one than the time I was taken for questioning by friendly, efficient Doombots!)
Local ISPs went down a few days ago when Latveria experienced a sudden surge in the Squirrel population; seems the little monsters got to chewing on some important wires which resulted in the entire telecommunications grid going offline. Given that radio, television, and telephone all went down at the same time, it seems that this may have been a coordinated assault on glorious Latveria by the evil rodents. Well, that didn't go over well with our beloved monarch, Doctor Doom, needless to say. To say our leader has some dislike of the rodents is a bit of an understatement. It's perfectly natural when you consider his victorious tactical retreat from combat so many years ago while in combat with Iron Man and Squirrel Girl.
Naturally, with only the desire to do right by the people of glorious Latveria, Doctor Doom single-handedly ended the squirrel menace of the past few weeks. And, in order to keep the population of sinister squirrels to a minimum (ie. zero), he has also instituted entirely well-conceived and fully-thought-out squirrel bounties. I, for one, am thrilled to live in a country where ordinary citizens are encouraged to fire wilfully at tiny, fast-moving rodents regardless if they are in densely-populated urban areas. I can see no possible downside to this course of action.
