That's an interesting idea.
Maybe when I finally buy it I'll do something similar with tabloid
celebrities.  Maybe an all female squad with Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes
and other "in trouble" celebs conscripted and sentenced to fight aliens
instead of going to jail.
Of course, then I won't know who to root for, my squad of felons, or the
aliens trying to kill them.
