Sophie learns the way of the pentacle when Promethea [Bill] shows her the danger of becoming too close to the material world. Meanwhile, Mayor Baskerville and Benny Solomon arrive at the hospital and the Painted Doll drops a Teddy Bomb into the crowd.
Publisher’s description
Benny Solomon and his Mephistophelean version of Murder, Inc. turn up in New York while Sophie continues her trek across the Immmateria to discover her unearthly birthright. This time she's accompanied by '40s comic-book creator William Woolcott, the only male ever to serve as a vessel of the half-real heroine. A special issue featuring a computer-collage sequence illustrated by Jose Villarrubia (VEILS).
