Apparently, author Leah Bobet actually sold a story to Strange Horizons (http://www.strangehorizons.com/2005/20051010/crime-f.shtml) based on a plot from this web site!

(BTW, the first entry I got was ““He’s a notorious flyboy Green Beret in drag. She’s a cold-hearted cigar-chomping stripper with a birthmark shaped like Liberty’s torch. They fight crime!” I decided to quit while I was ahead :-> )
