As the villainess Blue-Rhey has absorbed most of the other heroic denizens of Heartland including AtomikGirl's rival "Flying Fox" to gain their knowlege and powers, Our heroine oblivious to this fact has been running behind trying to get some media love by becoming Miss Keenspot to beef up her endorsement deals.

However, it seems Mr. Stillman has no love for our heroine, and possibly has his own agenda for taking the job.
Cast listing and notes
AtomikGirl : This young heroine is the former sidekick to Nuclear Woman. She had to forge her own identity after her mentor vanished battling the evils of "The Avant Guard". She is known to be somewhat self-absorbed, driven by things such as glory and monetary gain. As of this writing she seems to be the only functional heroine for Heartland, a situation that affords her the opportunity to achieve all of her desires, and show up every other heroine in the process…. Oh, and save the day.
Blue-Rhey : Progress, that is what every nation seeks, what the visionaries claim puts us above the lesser animals of the world. No one person so embodies this as much as the former Dr. Bheula Rhey. So was pushing the bounds of digital technology to advance man in areas such as transportation (teleportation) and self improvement though skill synthesis. A tragic accident left her reconfigured, now she seeks to use her scientific know-how to upgrade all mankind as the final expression of digital perfection, whether they want it or not.
Flying Fox : Flying Fox was Nuclear Woman’s original sidekick; after she grew older and decided to strike out on her own she stayed in Heartland. She is very much her mentor’s perfect protégée, a fact which wins her no love from the spoiled AtomikGirl. The two are locked in a bitter rivalry for super heroic prominence.
Stillman, Jack : Little is known about Jack Stillman, out of the blue one day he turned up at Silver’s Talent agency. His rates were dirt cheap provided he would be allowed to work on their top client list including handing all the photography for the media adoring AtomikGirl. What is known is that he is the son of former Nuclear Woman nemesis “Still Life” who recently died in prison due to a mysterious kitchen accident involving meat packing.
Nuclear-Woman: Strong of will and certainly strong in ability Nuclear-Woman stood for all that’s great about the American Dream. She was popular, respected by her peers in the heroic community. In her steal and storied career she had side kicked no less than two other young ladies to prominence as heroines in their own right.
Though lacking in inborn powers she crafted technological means to thwart evil at every turn. Her latest side kick “AtomikGirl” was left on her won with access to all of Nuclear-Woman’s fortune after she disappeared at the hands of “Don Picasso” and the “Avant Guard”… her fate remains a mystery and troubles her charge on a very deep, if repressed level that borders denial........
Don Picasso (Avant Guard): Don, also known as Dapper Don was THE voice when it came to what was real art in Heartland. He was also a rather unscrupulous art thief. He would often hoard valuable art work all the while paying lip service to stop art piracy. An Artist himself, he would often canvas local colleges seeking a new idea, a new something for him to discover. New techniques were stolen; ideas fleeced wholesale with little in his way to stop him. Fate did lend her hand one day however and Don Picasso’s life would change radically.
After his transformation into a pigment less chalk like substance his mania to possess all art only intensified, after all was he not akin to art himself? He began to surround himself with all the art he and his newly minted gang of the “Avant Guard” could steal, this brought him into conflict with Nuclear-Woman and AtomikGirl directly. In the Aftermath AtomikGirl arrested those she could, but by the time she reached his Studio Sanctorum the rogue artist and his mentor were gone, his whereabouts are currently unknown, many of his guardsmen however after being capured are currently still serving time.
