Issue #5: Tears In Rain begins!
Last time we saw our ol’ pal Firewall he was face-up on a cold metal slab, right before Wynn and the gang received the devastating news about the c-virus. But why is Ronald “Firewall” Ross being held at the compound? Who was Firewall messaging with at the end of issue #2?
This page should answer your suspicions. He was a double-agent all along, though torn between the two sides. Ultimately, his decisions and Wynn’s recklessness has left Firewall dead. And Wynn a murderer. The “villains” clearly have the upperhand. The mole removed. The bear captured. Wynn M.I.A.
Don’t miss the second page of the issue next Tuesday; this Thursday will see the return of The Mystery Gang!
Another killer page. Ha. Sorry.
Kidding aside this page looks incredible. Great art Rove and Ed!
That’s some killer indecision he had. It could’ve given him an ulcer or something. You gotta be careful about those sort of things.
Eek! Zombie Urkel!!!
Is Firewall really up and walking or is that just really cool imagery in the last panel?
Great job Rove and Ed indeed. This page slayed me when I saw it.
Also, Dotcom brings up a good point that I’d like to clarify right now: Firewall is not returning as a zombie. This is a visual thing.
Dotcom — I bet a nickel that while Firewall’s meatware has been deprecated, his software is still in the system somewhere. A literal ghost in the machine…
You lost me at “meatware”
