I learned earlier today that Petoskey Batman and Bee Sting are feuding and their once-close friendship has created a schism within the membership of the Michigan Protectors.
The Michigan Protectors are a team of real-life superheroes who wear costumes and fight crime. The Protectors have been around for three years and the two heroes -- Petoskey Batman (AKA Mark Williams) and Bee Sting (AKA Adam Besso) -- were reportedly tight allies. Williams got in trouble with the police during a solo superhero mission back in 2011, which grabbed Besso's attention. He subsequently invited Williams to join the Michigan Protectors.
The problems came after Besso found himself jailed following a shotgun-involved mission. Once out of jail, he tried rallying the team, but many of the Michigan Protectors said that Besso was too strict. They wanted Williams to co-lead the team. And Besso did not want to share the leadership duties.
Ever since, Bee Sting and Petoskey Batman have been sniping at each other back and forth. Not only that, but they have both taken to the pages of the Detroit News to accuse each other of everything from romantic impropriety, welfare fraud, and driving without a license.
And I'm left wondering who's looking after the innocents of Michigan??
