Ocelot
The ocelot (/ˈɒsəlɒt/; Leopardus pardalis), also known as the dwarf leopard, is a wild cat distributed extensively within South America including the islands of Trinidad and Margarita, Central America, and Mexico. It has been reported as far north as Texas. North of Mexico, it is found regularly only in the extreme southern part of Texas, although there are rare sightings in southern Arizona.
The ocelot is similar in appearance to a domestic cat. Its fur resembles that of a clouded leopard or jaguar and was once regarded as particularly valuable. As a result, hundreds of thousands of ocelots were once killed for their fur. The feline was classified as a vulnerable species from 1972 until 1996, and is now listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
Etymology
The name ocelot comes from the Nahuatl word ōcēlōtl (pronounced [oːˈseːloːt͡ɬ]), which usually refers to the jaguar (Panthera onca) rather than the ocelot.
Taxonomy
The ocelot's genus Leopardus consists of nine species similar to the ocelot, such as Geoffroy's cat and the margay, which are also endemic to South and Central America. All of the cats in Leopardus are spotted, lithe, and small, with the ocelot being the biggest.
O-Force
The O-Force is a superhuman mutant team in the Marvel Comics universe. Their first appearance was in X-Statix #1 and was created by Peter Milligan and Mike Allred.
Publication history
Created by Peter Milligan and Michael Allred, O-Force's only appearance was in the first story arc of the X-Statix comic book series, lasting four issues. After this all of the team's whereabouts and status are unknown after the events of "Decimation" and the "Civil War". The exception is Obituary, who was mentioned in the Civil War: Battle Damage Report one-shot.
Fictional team biography
The team is created for a reality television show where mutants compete for a place in the O-Force team. Three of the trainees (Oink, Oracle and Orifice) are only pictured in a single panel and do not appear with the team.
The O-Force television show airs starring Optoman, Orchid, Overkill and Ozone. They compete in a fight onscreen, with Optoman taking the brunt of it. Later, as the team is assembled, a video is shown across the nation of a practice mission. O-Force's first mission is to rescue a group of actors from a mansion filled with gunmen. X-Statix does not believe the mission is anything more than a set-up to make O-Force look good. This is confirmed by the thought bubbles of Solomon O'Sullivan, O-Force's agent. The gunmen who threaten the actors are killed during the mission.

The Slave
by: AssaultIt's time to wake up
And get my feet back on the ground
But I can feel my heart burning
And my mind going blank
I'm turning into a hollow shell
And I try to block it out
You try to send me to the other side
But I'm already there
Who do you think you are?
And what do you want?
I will rip your insides out
And take you apart
I am welcoming you and your wrath
And the pain is piercing my flesh
Blood fills my mouth
But I smile
You are weak
I can see it in your eyes
You will beg for your soul
As I take control
Fight for your life
I want you to try
It just takes me to a greater high
Who do you think you are?
And what do you want?
I will rip your insides out
And take you apart
Who do you think you are?
And what do you want?
I will rip your insides out
And take you apart
Now it's over
I will send you to your grave
You will fall into nothingness
And forever be our slave
Your swan song cuts through the night
And leads my soul closer
