*VIOLENT FEMS* Extra! Extra! Read it! (page A1)

An unprecedented menace to society threatens to grasp Gotham by the very roots and drag it down into an unfathomable abyss of violence and terror. This uncontrollable element is none other than the thrill-hungry “girl gang” who call themselves THE VIOLENT FEMS.

A well-known name in the city's underground elite, this group of highly skilled vigilante vixens have a lust for thrill-seeking that until now had focused on mob-style organized chaos. However, our sources say that the Fems' sinister focus has changed. In recent months they've begun randomly attacking men on the street seemingly without cause or provocation.

The reasons for these incidents are unknown, though rumor has it that members of the Fems have been overheard saying things like:

"We like to hurt men, you know,
just for kicks!”

Their favored modus operandi is to lay in wait in dark alleyways, backroom dinges, and even at the crowded entrances of shopping malls to stalk their prey.

City officials are urging men to use extreme measures of caution and avoid going out alone. These fatalistic females operate without reserve and within their own code of morals, and leave a trail of terrorized men in their sadistic wake wherever they go.

To read individual profiles containing all of the information that has been compiled on each of the Violent Fems members, refer to pages A2 through A9, as indicated in the mugshot photos to the right and below.

If you believe yourself to be a potential victim, we strongly encourage you to use the victims hotline.

A recent statement by one of the Violent Fems' victims was just released. The poor, unfortunate, malodorous man had this to say after he was found in a New Jersey landfill: "I was leaving my local bar, and I saw a beautiful woman in a tight dress standing on the corner. She seemed lost, so I went up to her to see if I could hail her a taxi. "The next thing I knew, I couldn't see and was kicked in the balls. I was then thrown into a van and tied from head to foot. I think they took me to a basement... they threw me down some stairs. It was horrible. "I was stripped, beaten, my nipples clamped, my mouth gagged, and my hindquarters... violated. They laughed the whole time, it seemed like they were actually enjoying themselves! "They're dangerous! Insane! I'm lucky to be alive..." Another victim, found in a car park in Harlem, had this to say about his run in with the Fems: "I was leaving my apartment in the Meatpacking District, and suddenly I felt a jolt in my side. When I woke, I was tied up in an old refrigerator for what seemed like days. Once in a while, they would come in, tease me with their stockinged feet, poke at me, and threaten to leave me there forever as their 'toy'..." *full story on page B1*
