Panel 1:
Woman in trenchcoat and hat: Aggressive Male?
Asian woman holding a clipboard: "That's his power. He was artifically enhanced with a double "Y" chromosome to make him an even *more* ruthless and efficient fighter.
Old man with white hair and beard: Unfortunately, that genetic code also made him immune to many of the *ahem* social graces. At any rate, the supernatural evil which we fight is spreading and I think it's time to fully accept you both into the Hellenders.
Panel 2:
Woman in coat and hat: That's great, isn't it Artemis?
Artemis: uh huh.
Asian woman: We fed your names, powers and backgrounds into the computer, and it matched you with two perfect codenames... Artemis you are Davelin and Jessup, yours is Cudgel!
Panel 3:
Artemis: "Javelin"?
Woman in coat and hat (apparently Jessup): "Cudgel"?
Panel 4:
Asian woman: Of course, if you don't like them "dust bunny" and "porkbelly" are still available.
