The Crow

A modern real-life blood-diamond vigilante resembling a magical 'Crow' challenges the Western dominion of a dingy baron.

A blood-diamond vigilantism eulogy inspired by the amazing dystopian comics-series The Crow (James O'Barr), which inspired the string of unusual films, including the original Brandon Lee film. Thanks,

Amlan Satan (code-name: Storm-Shadow) owns two duck-phones in his Boston apartment and is a blood-diamond Interpol-relations underground agent of F-IRA, linked to Belfast and Stockholm, and so he loves his special espionage duck-phones.

STORM-SHADOW: I draw inspiration for my heroics/patriotism from the images of calamity-endurance from 9/11.

This is no ordinary hero of modern times. He's an Ivy League graduate and diamond connoisseur who's studied Fanonian philosophy in Algeria and works against blood-diamond traffic threatening overground capital in troubled Northern Ireland (United Kingdom).

He's to perform a special blood-diamond bank-robbery in Boston, of the gems belonging to that dastardly Euro-baron Goldfinger who's shipping the gems to Northern Ireland.

Storm-Shadow's wife Esha has no idea what her husband does in his double-life, since by daylight, he's just a college professor of socioeconomics, and she's busy with her fashion-modeling career in the East Coast.

Storm-Shadow will enter the safe-box area of the vault-room of the Boston Bank and be in mask/costume claiming he's doing a street-theater outside the bank entrance about baron-diamonds in America and just wants the escorting guardsman to take photos of him in costume/mask holding his toy water-gun by Goldfinger's safe-boxes.

Once inside the safe-box area, Storm-Shadow reveals to the guardsman his water-gun is filled with acid and instructs him to dance in front of the security-camera while he burns a hole into Goldfinger's safe-box discreetly behind his back using his hands behind-his-back and swaps his blood-diamonds with toy gems. He sneaks out the bank bathroom window and uses a payphone to call the Interpol-relations station outside Boston and then the BPD to inform them that the new regime of fantastic anti-piracy heroics has landed in the Americas and that kids should take heart in their great cinema/stories about fantasy-adventures regarding tangible daylight.

STORM-SHADOW: I'll be using some of the blood-diamonds to create a laser-prism for a theater-display to mock Goldfinger.

GOLDFINGER: I didn't come up from the sewers and make a world-fortune only to be outwitted by Interpol-relations!

Storm-Shadow's only weakness besides his 'secrecy' from his wife is his darling niece Pumpkin and his pet-bird Belly. Pumpkin/Belly remind Storm-Shadow that he's not a 'raven' of world vigilantism but the humbled 'Crow' of human sentimentalism.

STORM-SHADOW: I'll sneak into Goldfinger's palace and sedate him to take him to interrogation/media and protect Belly.

If you believe in this modern vigilante-like Robin Hood (Storm-Shadow) who considers himself the proverbial 'Crow' of capitalism-defense in this 9/11-anniversary year, you might think of reasons to celebrate such a man as a figurine of great modernism dollars. Will he triumph?
