"James Adams has a rare gift. In fact he has three. He is a brilliant writer, a comedic genius and is able to push his mind and body as far as anyone I know. The thought of getting up day after day to run 45 miles in utter agony, through chronic fatigue and sickness doesn't even bear thinking about. His examination of self on that journey is utterly inspiring together with his tales from other incredible feats of endurance. Of all the books on ultra running published in recent years, this has to be the best all rounder." – James Elson
Welcome back to a world where the rich can afford the best in super hero protection, but the poor have to get by with government-sponsored heroes provided by the lowest bidder. The "Lone Knight" returns from the pages of Hero: 9 to 5, but how will The Loner, and the finest men and women that publicly funded super hero protection can supply, cope when a mysterious figure leaves a trail of unconnected corpses in his wake? Who is the Nightress and what keys does she hold to this mystery? How silent and deadly is a ninja's fart? All these questions and many more probably won't be answered in this issue! In a world where being a super hero is just another job, what happens when there's nobody left alive to pay the bill? Quietus-- some men just want to watch the world die.
