Stories

  • Just Let Me Die · 23 pages

    Theo leaps from a bridge to his death. He lands on Longshot and tells Longshot his everyday including that Con Edison rips him off. Longshot decides to break into Con Ed and steal diamonds to pay Theo back. They make it into the power plant and the wires and machinery spark a few of Longshot's memories. They get the diamonds but are attacked by Spiral, Gog and their allies. The machinery gets destroyed and blacks out all of New York. Spiral opens a portal back to her home world. Magog reveals himself to be Longshot's enemy, intent on killing him. Jinx returns home, leaving Longshot alone.
