GigaGuy cannon
GigaGuy cannon
Plural: GigaGuy cannons
A color-changing hero named GigaGuy once used this cannon to take a particularly wily villain to task and bring the city back from the brink of darkness and return it to light. After that he apparently had to rush off to some other city to put down a nearly identical plot devised by the same villain and some imitation cohorts, and in the process apparently he left all of his weapons behind.
This thing is tricked out with a number of attachments on the cannon, which seem to be able to do quite a few different things, up to and including scrambling eggs. Or frying them. Or blowing them up. Any of the above, actually.

Notes
When you use the GigaGuy cannon in combat there is a chance of a GigaGuy capsule and/or GigaGuy pellet dropping.
When you use GigaGuy fire atom (5pp)
You trigger the fire atom release on your GigaGuy cannon. A gigantic fireball explodes from the cannon and engulfs your opponent. It burns your foe for X damage.
When you use GigaGuy crashing bomb (10pp)
You fire a crashing bomb from the cannon. True to its name, the projectile crashes and then explodes in a cloud of smoke and debris. Your opponent is badly stunned.
When you use GigaGuy rapid boomerang (3pp)
You trigger the rapid boomerang option on your cannon. A series of tiny little metal boomerangs rapidly shoot out from the cannon, ricochet off of your opponent, and somehow return to the gun. Your opponent takes X damage.
When you use GigaGuy lead sphere (7pp)
You fire off a lead sphere. Wait, is that lead as in made of heavy metal, or lead as in something you follow? You're not sure, but you can't imagine a dense metal being a light, floaty bubble. Then again, as the sphere just rolls to your opponent, it's not leading you anywhere. The greyish bubble pops and sticks all over your opponent, apparently weighing them down.
