DESTINATION KILL #2 (OF 4)

WELCOME TO LONDON. THE YEAR IS 2125. GET DOWN AND DUCK FOR COVER! Visionary cartoonist Joe Palmer (Time Before Time) turbocharges the next unrelenting installment of the retina-searing, jaw-busting 22nd-century action epic that ONLY SPEEDS UP AND DOESN'T SLOW DOWN! There's chaos in the streets following an attack on megacorp Overcon's newest innovation: the Paradise Loop, a hypersonic train connecting London to New York in just an hour. Concerned with the optics for his upcoming anniversary gala, Overcon's CEO wants protestors shot in the streets . . . and Detective Gina Serene and her ex-partner Lance are the last bulwark against the torrent of blood and bullets that's building between the city's control-minded overlords and the Builder subclass willing to bring it all down with a ball of flame and bundle of homemade explosives. Now Gina must race to locate the one person who can possibly stop the next, even more destructive attack—Nelson Van Meter, creator of the Loop—before Overcon or the Builders can get to him to first.
