Stories

  • Killer Killer Part One Storm Gird · 22 pages

    The Ventriloquist (Arnold Wesker) is tormented by dreams of Scarface while in Blackgate prison. On his own in Gotham, Rhino has been unable to learn ventriloquism to make Scarface talk. When Rhino is confronted by three vengeful hoods, he is finally able to make Scarface speak. Back in prison, the authorities believe that the guard's death was actually a mistake. A Vigilante known as Killer Killer was actually trying to kill Wesker. Rhino and Scarface make a deal with The Penguin to break The Ventriloquist from jail. Wesker is freed by the Penguin's men and reluctantly takes Scarface in hand.
