[[File:Armagedda in her true form in Redistribution.png|thumb|right|235px|Armagedda holds court in the sewers of [[New York City|New York]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Redistribution (comic story)|Redistribution]]'')]]Still intent on fulfilling her function, but sticking to her vow not to use her cosmic powers to destroy the [[Earth]] directly, Armagedda tried to understand the human economic system; having seen how obsessed modern Americans were with the economy, she believed that throwing the economy out of gear would be a pathway to destroying the planet through non-violent means. To achieve this, she created large amounts of money out of thin air and, hiding out in the sewers of [[New York City]], hired masked henchmen to “reverse-rob” banks, forcing them to add this money to their vaults and registers, thus flooding the economy. | [[File:Armagedda in her true form in Redistribution.png|thumb|right|235px|Armagedda holds court in the sewers of [[New York City|New York]].

Although hardly world-ending, these puzzling occurrences caught the attention of the New York Police who, unable to crack the case, asked [[the Odds]] for help. ([[COMIC]]: [[Redistribution (comic story)|Redistribution]]'') [[Professor Madison]] and [[Rodney Rabbit]] were unavailable to help, as they were away at a summit of scientific geniuses. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Battle of Britain (comic story)|Battle of Britain]]'') [[Jenny Nowhere#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Jenny Nowhere]] was able to use [[Professor Madison's device]] to detect cosmic particle residue at one of the banks and follow it to the sewers through [[shift]]ing. There, the Odds overheard Armagedda monologuing to her henchmen about her plans. [[Captain Evening#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Captain Evening]] ordered an ill-advised charge which saw Armagedda easily incapacitate him, [[Merv the Griffin]] and [[Armstrong Fatbuckle]]. However, when she asked the “Earthlings” what they hoped to achieve, given that the destruction of the Earth was fated and inevitable, Armstrong improvised an answer claiming that they wished to survive long enough to pass what he called humanity's greatest cultural achievement: the “all-American date”. | Although hardly world-ending, these puzzling occurrences caught the attention of the New York Police who, unable to crack the case, asked [[the Odds]] for help.

[[File:Armagedda in human form in Redistribution.png|thumb|left|240px|Armagedda, in human form, becomes stranded in [[Universe (Redistribution)|a parallel universe]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Redistribution (comic story)|Redistribution]]'')]]Armagedda was reluctantly convinced to accompany Armstrong on a date so as to “preserve” it, taking human form for this purpose. This took the better part of the evening; she was unenthused by most of it, although she seemed to mildly enjoy going back to Armstrong's place and what they did there. Returning to her sewer lair, however, she was punched by Merv the Griffin while still in human form; before she could turn back to her true form, Jenny used the [[Magic Sword of the Legion of Light]] to channel her [[shift]]ing powers and banish her to [[Universe (Redistribution)|another randomly-selected universe]]. There, she found, to her dismay, that she could no longer use her powers and thus couldn't shed her human form; to compound matters, this was not a universe where [[Homo Sapiens|humans]] were the dominant species, instead existing only as non-sentient cattle by anthropomorphic bovines.
