Almost a week after Energy Crisis, Wyldfire reckons with the precisely timed plot of the Clockwork King.   Special guest stars: Mama Trace and The Shadow of Hob's Bay


Greetings True Believers!

 

Old Man Winter continues his cold visit to the fair city of Metropolis. The City of Tomorrow looks ever more like Normal Rockwell’s city of yesterday.

 

It has been almost a week since the mysterious brown outs plagued the city and a strange explosion rocked the mid-town area in the late evening hours. Since then, it has been blissfully quiet, almost serene.

 

Yet under this tranquility, something dire works its way up from under the snow. Despite winter’s chill, the Black Blossom of Crime begins to bud, then slowly unfold while a cargo ship carrying experimental medical technology - new magnetic imagers and prototypes of a Regrowth Enhancer have been hijacked from the dock! The clues indicate Oscorp, but Oscorp denies any involvement. Somewhere along the waterfront, a lone tracking device begins to transmit from an undisclosed location.

 

Who would want such prototypes? Is Oscorp to blame? What could the tracking device mean? Stay with us True Believers … for the answers to this and more!

 

This is Not Stan Lee saying … Excelsior!

 
 
It's there and it's glowing!
