Glass Spider is interrogated about her husband, as the team didn't know that she was married to Marcus Giovani (the tenth richest man in the world) in Vegas.
The team discuss what is happening:
- The World [xxi] has been killed and Judgement [xx] is missing.
- Cactus Jack is out and about and members of his team attacked the Glass Spider while she was meeting the new relations in a nice Italian Restaurant in New York, several of the new relations were killed in the assault.
- Eldrich, who was injured in the assault in New York is still out of things after a few days have passed.
- Cactus Jack - A shaman who sacrificed his people for power over fate. He is known to be immune to all forms of magic. He is the leader and driving force behind the Jackalopes, his goals appear to spread chaos. It is also known that he is able to perform rituals, not hazardous in combat unless he has had time to prepare.
- Brimstone - Before gaining powers the Rev. T Scott was a hell fire and brimstone style preacher who put the fear of God into his parish. On the night of his transformation he had pushed the people too far and they had snapped. They locked him into the church and set it on fire. He may have burnt to death if not for the actions of a single woman from the town who looked up to him. Brimstone's known powers are control over "Hell Fire" (production in blasts and an area around himself) he is also immune to fire.
- Suzy-Floozy - Susette Dove had a hard upbringing, her father mistreated as long as she could remember and she ran away from home as soon as she could. She became a "saloon girl" and was mistreated by more men, strangers this time. The only person who she had any liking for was the local Rev. T Scott when she found out the townsfolk were going to burn him alive in his church she stole a gun and started her one woman crusade to stop their madness. Suzy-Floozy's known powers are that she is awesomely skilled with almost any weapon.
- Railroad - A gambler who gained mental command over metal.
- Behemoth - The origin of Behemoth is unknown, his first appearance was when he ran with Cactus Jack on a daring bank robbery. Behemoth's known powers are that he is extremely resilient to all forms of damage.
Breaking news
- TinkaHULK has been broken out of prison, reports of a normal cat causing havoc are being connected with his escape.
- One of the many Giovani funerals was disrupted by an assault by a pair of super-villains identified as Brimstone and Suzy-Floozy members of Cactus Jack's Jackalopes gang. In this assault Marcus Giovani was seriously injured.
Glass Spider, Flash, Stars and Juggler
Head to New York for a number of reasons, Glass Spider to visit her husband taking along Stars as he may be able to heal Marcus and Flash for moral support.
Juggler hunts down The Emperor [iii] a Vince Bloomburg who's last known abode is in New York whom she finds. Vince knows she is coming and tells her that all of The 22 are being "removed" as they were a "mistake." Vince is unwilling to help as he believes that he isn't in trouble until Juggler (The Empress [iv]) is dead. Vince also thinks that there will be only one survivor of The 22 at the end but will say no more on the subject.
Glass Spider talks to Marcus and he requests that he get her to his home, atop his corporate headquarters in Freedom City. Eventually this is arranged and Flash opens a portal to the building, where they are met by high tech security guards with strange looking firearms and some doctors. They take Marus away for "life saving surgery" and politely ask the team to leave. Flash attempts to mind read the doctor, this sets off an alarm and the guards start pointing weapons at people. The team are again asked to leave and this time they comply.
Mighty Lawman and Anti-Light
The pair of heroes track down Bill Pardy (The Sun [xix]) to inform him that he is next on the list of a super assassin who is killing off The 22. They find him a little drunk at a bar, apparently he has been attempting to drown his sorrows as he hasn't taken to being a "freak" as well as some of the others. He isn't interested in the warnings as "like the sun I am reborn every morning." As he stumbles out of the bar mumbling to himself that he is going to see Maddie; the duo are thinking of apprehending him, but in the blink of an eye he turns into a streak of light and is gone.
