[COLLISION SOUND]
Oh my God, I am so sorry.
Let me help you out.
No I am sorry.
Ugh
That was my fault,
I wasn'’t looking.
I am so sorry.
Ugh
That'’s ok.
I'’m sorry.
No no it'’s ok, really.
You seem very nice.
I heard people here were
not so nice.
I am Casey, by the way.
Hi, I'’m Molly.
It'’s a pleasure, Molly.
Are you new around here?
Yea, I
I just got here from North Carolina.
I rode a bike!
It'’s about 500 miles.
I mean anything is possible
If you try hard enough.
That is true.
You must be tired.
Not really, not really.
Beautiful flowers.
Thanks!
They'’re my mom's favorites.
What if I'’m walking you to wherever you are going.
I'’ll be your bodyguard and protect you,
to say sorry.
You funny Casey but
it'’s ok.
Don'’t worry about it.
I'’m just visiting my mom in the hospital.
What happened?
If you don'’t mind me asking of course.
Nah , it'’s ok.
She is in a coma.
It'’s
It'’s been a year today actually.
I bring her Tulips,
her favorite flowers
every night.
I just hope she wakes up
when she smells her favorite flowers.
I'’m sure she will.
Listen I'’m
I'‘m so sorry.
Thanks.
So what brings you to New York?
Oh
Huh
I'’m here to save New York City.
Excuse me?
Oh yea
I read that in 24 hours
half of New York will just
evaporate.
ISIS?
No
worse.
That a hero will emerge
And I believe it'’s my destiny to be that hero
and save this city.
That'’s why I'me here.
How do you know this?
It'’s right here.
It'’s all outlined in this comic book, right here.
It also says that I have to find the
the reader,
'‘cause he is the key to protecting and saving New York City.
Listen
you don'’t happen to know where I can buy a
costume for like
$20 by any chance?
There is a costume shop right around the corner.
Oh awesome
hum
hey, why don'’t we walk together?
Actually,
I can'’t,
I gotta go change,
I got my dress dirty.
Huh
Ok.
Well,
It was a pleasure meeting you Molly!
Where did she say that comic book store was again?
[OFFICE WORKING SOUND]
Excuse me!
Excuse me.
Sir?
Huh?
Can I help you with something?
No.
Sir?
Do you have an appointment today?
Huh
I don'’t need an appointment,
I'’m Michael Parks.
Huh?
Well, Mister Parks?
Mister O'’Neil is quite occupied at the moment.
You can go ahead and have a seat,
and wait
and when he is done,
I'’ll go and let him know you are here.
Ok
That'’s
That'’s cute.
Hum ?
Amanda
Amanda.
But frankly when you are as wealthy and powerful as I am,
waiting is pretty futile.
[Whisper] It'’s actually for the poor.
No sir please,
This job is important to me,
It is?
I don'’t want to get in trouble.
Listen when I get done in there,
I'’ll get you a promotion,
don'’t worry.
this won'’t take long.
Sir?
Sir, wait
Maybe discussing, talking, go pick up product shop in Russia
Hum
That'’s of course up to you.
Well
I think
Sir
Wait
Excuse me ladies and gentlemen,
this won'’t take long.
What the hell are you doing here Parks?
I'’m sorry mister O'’Neil,
I tried to stop him.
Well,
why didn'’t you?
I'’m sorry.
Incompetent bi
Hey now
That'’s no way to talk to a lady.
GET THE HELL OUT OF MY OFFICE PARKS
BEFORE I CALL SECURITY!
Oh my
Kevin
When did you get so cocky Kevin baby?
And after all you networth
is about the value of my old printer.
Security!
Get to my office quickly!
Huh
That'’s
Correction
This is my office.
What the hell are you talking about Parks?
Let'’s be real here Kevin,
this was never really your office, was it?
I mean after all,
the only reason you'’re here
is because your daddy retired.
[Screaming] How dare you come to my office and insult me?
Ok
Alright, first of all
you are not even worthy of my respect
and second of all
your father just sold me this company.
So
With all due respect,
which is none,
get the hell out of my office Mister Kevin O'’Neil.
You are lying.
My father will never do something like that.
Huh
You know what?
Why don'’t you ask him?
So how long have you been here?
HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?
ALL I ASKED
WAS FOR YOU TO BELIEVE IN ME ONCE
YEAH JUST ONCE!!!
No one want to hear your sad story mister O'’Neil.
WE'’RE NOT DONE!!!
YOU AND I!
Was that a threat?
Because if it is
you should know that
you threating me
is like being threaten by a cockroach.
The door is that way.
So hum
Does this mean I am out of the job?
Do you like this office?
Yes?
I guess so
Good.
I don'’t understand what that has to do with anything.
Well
[SEAT ON CHAIR SOUND]
It'’s yours.
I
I don'’t understand.
Well I told you I would get you a promotion.
I always keep my promises.
[UNCOMFORTBLE BREATHING]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Are you sure about this man?
She'’s just a kid.
She'’s Michael Parks little sister you idiot,
you know how much money we can get for?
HEY!
GET AWAY FROM HER!
S Man, I am ready!
It'’s time to be the hero.
Casey go and get help!
Don'’t worry Molly!
I won'’t let you miss a chance to see your mother!
I'’m here to protect you!
Who is this clown?
I don'’t know, some special need kid.
Go get a cookie somewhere kid.
It'’s kid S.
Now let the girl go or else!
Some comic book looking character.
I am kind of a hero
I am S Man sidekick.
I will slap you back to your mom'’s womb.
STOP RESISTING KID!
what did you say your name was?
I am Kid S!
It'’s not that hard to remember.
I'’m gonna put your behind bars.
[LAUGHING SOUND]
This kid sounds freaking mental man.
Let'’s see how tough you really are.
Woh.. woh
You are really gonna hit a kid?
Shut up.
[PUNCH SOUND]
Stay down kid.
Heroes never give up.
[PUNCH SOUND]
That'’s enough, you're gonna kill him.
I'’m teaching him a lesson in life.
Good guys
never win.
THATS A LIE!
GOOD ALWAYS WIN!
ENOUGH!
Don'’t tell me what to do.
Now go grab the girl, let'’s move out.
Not on my watch.
[PUNCH SOUND]
You shouldn'’t have.
Now you did it!
[KNIFE STAB SOUND]
[HEART BEAT SOUND]
CASEY!
Stay where you are!
What are you doing?
This was not a part of the deal.
Shut up!
Call the ambulance.
Do that
and you'’ll be next.
[WIND SOUND]
What was that?
[TENSE SOUNDTRACK]
You'’ve been a very bad boy.
How did you?
What are you?
Is he gonna be ok?
It'’s my fault.
He'’ll be fine.
I'’m gonna call 911.
DONT!!!
whatever you do,
don'’t call 911.
Why?
What if he doesn'’t wake up.
Just take him inside and he will heal.
I don'’t understand.
You and Casey are gonna play a crucial role
in saving New York City.
Not this again.
He needs medical attention.
You don'’t believe me
NO!!!
I'’m calling an ambulance.
No
you must help Casey find and save the reader,
if you don'’t, bad thing are going to happen.
Let me guess.
Half the population of New York City will disappear?
This is not a joke.
Casey needs medical attention
and if you are really his friend
you would let me call an ambulance.
[SMOOSH SOUND]
What was that?
Who are you?
That'’s what will happen
if you don'’t help Casey find and save
This is insane.
Still after everything you just saw?
I don'’t know what I saw.
NO PLEASE DONT!
It'’s ok.
You'’re afraid.
You are still processing this new information.
Just
Take care of Casey, ok?
Take him inside.
Everything is gonna be ok.
Who are you?
Name is Kitty.
What are you?
You'’re not ready fo that yet sweetheart.
Just take care of Casey
and help him find the reader.
Once all the is over
we'’ll have a tea party
and I'’ll answer all your questions.
Wait!
How do we find this reader?
And
Who is he?
Ask Casey when he wakes up.
[SAD PIANO MUSIC]
[DOOR OPENS]
Hey sis
[DOOR CLOSES]
How is it going?
How'’s
Who is that?
He'’s just a friend of mine.
And he is staying here
He was hurt.
Since when did your couch become a hospital?
You don'’t understand.
He saved me.
Saved you from what?
Two guys tried to kidnap me.
Are you telling the truth?
Why would I lie about something like that?
This is why I told you to get bodyguards
so stuff like this wouldn'’t happen.
I
Michael I don'’t need a bodyguard.
This isn'’t a discussion.
Because of who we are
because of what our names are
because what we have
people are always gonna be trying to take something from us.
I know
I know I
maybe been a little too hard recently
but with mom in the coma
dad out of the picture
you the only thing I have left.
I don'’t know what I would do if something happen to you.
Ok.
I promise.
Now
Why is there an unconscious boy sleeping on your couch?
Listen
I'’m not judging.
I'’m
I'’m just asking.
I mean as long as you guys been safe.
No, Michael!
It'’s not like that.
Ok?!
Let'’s go wake him up
I'’d love to meet your boyfriend.
Wait, no!
Where did he go?
I don'’t know.
Ice cream?
Casey this is my brother Michael.
Mister Parks?
Mister Parks is your brother?
Oh my God, I'’m going to have a heart attack.
Ok relax.
Mister Parks
It is such an honor to meet you.
I am a huge fan.
I want to shake your hand since forever.
Well
Thank you for the admiration,
It is a pleasure to meet you Casey.
Oh no the pleasure is all mine sir.
I didn'’t know you were such a big fan of my brother.
Of course I am.
Everyone should be.
After all
He is one of the heroes who helps find and protect the reader.
WHAT?
What?
Whatever you are smoking, keep it away from my sister.
MICHAEL?
oh no no actually
I was sent here to protect you
while you find the reader
and help save New York.
Why didn'’t you tell me my brother was apart of this?
I had no idea Michael Parks was your brother.
This is just
This kid is crazy.
This is just an elaborated scheme to get money from us.
You are not going to outsmart Michael Parks.
Michael, would you just listen to him?
I don'’t want your money, I want your help.
Help with what?
And if you say "“Save New York"”, I am going to slap you.
MICHAEL!
Would you listen for once?
Can you let go of this egotistical rich kid personality of yours
and be my brother for once?
Fine.
You'’ve 30 seconds.
[SPOON SOUND]
Oh
Ok
a comic book
here we go.
This
is you.
That doesn'’t look anything like me.
That looks exactly like you.
Well then I'’m gonna sue them.
There is a way we can still save New York.
If we find the reader
he can decipher the book of commencement.
Oh
Now we'’re getting biblical.
No no no, it'’s not like that.
It'’s actually a comic book.
that holds a key and
like riddles to all this stuff.
but the reader can decipher it.
Listen
There is so many plot holes in your story
it'’s insane.
What are you? A writer?
Trying to pitch me a movie
trying to get me to produce it or something?
I am not a writer.
That'’s even worse
than you just crazy.
I mean first of all
a comic book, how cliche
What are you? 9?
Second of all, there is no proof of any of this.
I mean, half of population of New York
doesn'’t even make sense.
It'’s pathetic.
MICHAEL STOP IT.
Will you help us or not?
You are not actually buying into this, aren'’t you?
I had no idea a person can be so mean.
Casey don'’t mind him.
All he cares about is money and business.
The Michael that did care
died ever since he took over that stupid business.
The comic book shop I work at just got new shipments.
Maybe we can find the one we are looking for there.
Oh you are not going anywhere with him.
You'’re not my father.
No, but I am your legal guardian
you'’re gonna do what I say.
[IMPACT SOUND]
What was that?
What if those guys are back?
You two, stay here.
I'’m gonna go check it out.
Ok, let'’s split through the fire escape.
What about your brother?
He'’ll be fine.
But what if those guys
It'’s not them, its Kitty.
Who?
Come on, let'’s go!
[INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC]
You know
Ok so
If you are a billionaire
why do you work at a comic book store?
I'’m not a billionaire
my family is.
Yes but you know what I meant.
No I don'’t want to depend on my family'’s money.
I can survive on my own.
I mean that makes sense.
You'’re pretty cool Molly.
I'’m glad I ran into you.
You'’re pretty cool too Casey.
Shall we
go inside?
Yeah
What comic book are you guys looking for?
S Man origin, the first edition.
Ok
You know I think I have something for you guys.
Wait here.
[LOCK CLOSING]
[INTENSE DARK MUSIC]
Sorry
to disappoint you kiddos.
George
What are you doing?
Give me the comic book now.
And I promise, I'’ll make your death
not too painful.
Give me that book now
OR DIE!!!
[SCREWDRIVER SOUND]
GEORGE PLEASE!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
THIS ISN'’T YOU!
[MOLLY SCREAMS]
[HEROIC EPIC MUSIC]
[ELECTRIC SOUND]
[MOLLY SCREAMS]
Molly!
I'’m so sorry.
Please wake up.
Hum
This was a bad idea.
I never should have brought you to this.
Molly!
Everything is fine.
It'’s ok.
GEORGE!
He can'’t hurt us anymore.
What happened to him?
Don'’t worry about it.
How are you feeling?
I have a headache but I'’m fine.
I'’m so sorry, this is all my fault.
Casey
You have powers.
It'’s all true and it might be more dangerous than we thought.
I know, I know
But
This is where we part ways.
NO!
We started this together
and we are finishing it together.
It'’s too dangerous.
I almost got you killed today.
I can handle it.
I am not a little girl.
Everyone keeps acting like I am some demoiselle in distress.
If something was to happen
Listen
If anything was to happen to you
I
I can'’t.
This is my battle, not yours.
Oh my God.
What'’s wrong?
I have been here too long
I only have 15 hours left to save New York.
I have to find the reader right now.
Casey!
I wanna come with you.
NO!
It'’s too dangerous.
I'’m sorry!
[SAD PIANO MUSIC]
Mom?
My beautiful princess.
I knew it.
They said you wouldn'’t wake up but I knew you would.
I missed you so much.
I missed you too honey.
Do you remember what happened that night?
The man who put you in the coma still hasn'’t been caught.
Have you talked to the police?
Molly, maybe it'’s
Mom just woke up
maybe we should save that for another time.
Yeah, you are right.
I'’m sorry.
I don'’t remember what happened
The last thing I remember was
you, Molly.
We were in the garden
You were helping me pick tulips in the back yard.
And then it started to rain and
we ran inside
then you asked me
what happens when it rains?
I told you
It rains because mother earth is sad.
Then you ran outside
and started dancing
I asked you what you were doing
and you said
I am cheering her up.
[MOLLY LAUGHING]
Maybe you should get some rest.
You are right, I am feeling a little tired.
You would think for being asleep
for a year
I would have enough.
I'’m gonna go lay down.
I love you.
And I love you both so much.
And I am so glad to be back here.
[FOOTSTEPS WALKING SOUND]
I can'’t believe it.
She is really back.
I know.
What the hell happened to you?
You filthy.
I was just with Casey.
Did he do something to you?
NO!
We were
I am fine.
Molly!
Tell me what happened?
We went to the book store.
The comic book store?
This again.
He was electrocuting Casey and
there was this big explosion.
Casey has powers.
Wh
What?
Alright then
I almost believed you two.
This isn'’t funny anymore.
I'’m telling the truth.
We have to help Casey save New York
before half the population dies.
Ok
You'’re tired.
It'’s been a long day.
We'’ll make an appointment to see Doctor Shnidmen tomorrow.
I'’m not crazy.
I don'’t need to see a therapist.
We'’ll make an appointment for Doctor Shni
No I'’m not crazy.
I don'’t need to see a therapist.
Get some rest.

Why do you want it?
It'’s just a comic book.
[MOLLY SUFFERING]
Wait
You don'’t even know what the comic book does do you?
And yet you are still willing to die for it?
You are even bigger idiots than I thought.
But it will lead me to the reader
and then to the chosen one
who will awaken and fulfill his destiny
to eradicate all of New York City.
The chosen one?
The Airman.
Why do you want to destroy New York City so bad?
Because Eclipse is coming!
What does that mean?
All will be revealed when the Airman is here.
Airman?
Now that'’s a cute name.
Is he have air powers or something?
Kitty!
That is correct
What? Like farting air powers?
Controlling the weather?
What are we working with here?
How dare you disrespect the chosen one?
Or what?
He'’s gonna savagely fart on us?

My powers are gone.
Come on, I know somebody
that can help us.
Come on, lets go!
No I told you
I can feel it

make sure you let me do all the talking.
Ahh
Listen huh
Cat
woman thing
Huh
I think it'’s pretty obvious
I'’m the best talker here
I'’ll be the one talking.
You know what?
Ok
A Mananogol was spotted
in Reart, New Jersey.
It attacked 5 pregnant women.
What the hell is a Mananogol?
Oh it feeds on pregnant women
and you know according to the Lord
It can savor ate its own apparatuse
and spread these huge bat like wings.
and
It has a huge appetite for children.
Hum
Lovely
How does it feed on pregnant women?
Oh
so it uses its tongue
and penetrates the women
and then sucks on the heart of the fetus.
Tha'’t s disgusting
Yea
[UNKOWN LANGUAGE DISCUSSION]
Sam
Katherine
He is here.
You look a bit old for a 17 years old
Oh Sam?
But it doesn'’t matter
You'’re here to save this city
Although
You really should start moisturizing.
SAM!
What?
It'’s not him.
Oh
Hi
On that case
Let'’s begin!
Did you cut your hair?
Sam, people'’s lives are in stake
now is not the time to
talk about tribal things like my hair.
You'’re still pissed?
Of course I'’m pissed
after that stunt you'’ve pulled
This is not the time.
Oh it looks good on you.
Thanks
Can you two shut the hell up?
People might die today.
If you don'’t mind your own business
you'’ll be the first.
Oh
I'’m Michael Parks.
[SUFFERING SOUND]
Sam!
Ok stop it!
Sam stop it!
OH MY GOSH!
Come on Sam
He gets it
Ok
SAMUEL!
We'’re here.
Hum
Sorry to interject here
but
Where'’re we going?
Here.
The wall?
Yes.
This is where we start
What do you want me
punch the wall?
Heh
No I don'’t want you to push the wall
[SMACK ON SHOULDER]
I want you to go through the wall.
Face to the wall?
No just run through the wall.
You
You want me to run through the wall?
Yes just run
literally
right
Just run through the wall
I can like go over the wall?
I don'’t have time for this
look
Have you ever seen the movie
Ok there is like this kid
He'’s got like a lightning scar
and then he
Ah ah yea
[CLAP]
I know what you mean
alright
like
like that.
Yes.
through the wall, cool.
[HEROIC MUSIC]
Yes.
[CLAP]
Run through the wall.
[IMPACT]
[MUSIC STOPS]
Awww
Not that wall you idiot.
Hannnn
You said this wall.
No I
I don'’t have time for this.
You said
[LOUD IMPACT]
What?
Kitty?
He'’s just joking.
But he didn'’t sound like it.
Casey will be fine.
Ok?
Just don'’t piss him off
Ha noted.
So?
Who wants to play Syntha?
Do I even want to know what that is?
[LOUD IMPACT]
Ah
Where are we?
This
is where you'’ll learn to master
your full potential in just hours.
It'’s called
The Devil'’s Lair
That is a dope name.
It'’s hidden from humans.
only
the only people who can get inside
are the ones I allow inside.
So why is it called the Devil'’s Lair?
Casey
There is more to this world than you know
Now
Stop this man who calls himself the Airman.
Right?
Isn'’t that just like
the dumbest name you can come up with.
I mean
I got Ink powers
What am I gonna call myself?
Inkman?
Right.
If you defeat him
You'’ll be part of something great
something
you can'’t even imagine
So defeating him
is like an initiation?
Exactly.
[LOUD IMPACT]
You see that guy?
He'’s taking the test.
[FIGHTING MUSIC]
Test?
What test?
To be fit to be a hero.
What does he have to do?
Fight the other guy and win.
If he can'’t?
He dies.
He dies?
Hold up
I didn'’t sign up for this
Look
Do you really think
you'’re gonna beat a creature like Airman
by training with sticks?
No
Every battle
you must learn to fight for your life
you must release yourself
from the chakras
of fear
and self doubt
Once you do that
then you'’ll see your true form
[FIGHTING SOUND]
You'’re right.
I mean
If Airman is not gonna fight fair
not gonna show any mercy
I should prepare for it right?
Yeah, yeah, ok!
Listen Casey
you pass my test
you'’ll be the first member
of this generation of superheroes.
Members?
There are others like me?
Of course
Every generation
has their own superheroes
to protect earth
from different creatures.
Hold up
so let me get this straight
I got my powers
from a comic book
the one that Airman stole
is that how the others get
Yeah?
Correct.
Every comic book
his rightful owner
in due time.
Ok
Let me ask you a question
So if we are like forming this super team
the next generation and all that
Do we get costumes?
No
Why not?
Because they'’re dumb.
Real heroes wear costumes
No real heroes
are there saving animals from people.
I think a costume would look cool.
I want one.
Fine.
Have a costume.
Awesome.
Why do you want to be like
those superheroes you read in comic books?
Honestly?
Alright
Look
I was not
popular in my childhood.
I didn'’t have what people called
friends.
In fact I was
very outcasted.
I was a nerd.
And
People kinda treated me like crap for that
You know?
I would go to school
Get bullied
and got even beaten up
from time to time.
But you know,
comic books were always there.
Comic books were the one
kinda stable thing.
They were like
They were like my escape.
My
break out from reality of
terribleness and all.
You know
The guys in those comic books.
The
The big
tough looking spandex
wearing long cape
flown
heroes.
They were
yeah
They were like
I idolized them.
So why do I want to be a comic book hero?
Cause I want to show other outcasted reject kids like me
that heroes are real
That I'’m real
and I can protect them.
I don'’t know.
OH MY
[INTENSE MUSIC]
GOSH!
Is he?
Yeah
He'’s
Han
Bummer.
It'’s time.
It'’s time, time for what?
Don'’t die.
Don'’t die?
Sam?
Ah
Oh come on Molly, once again?
Wait?
I'’m winning?
I didn'’t even know we were playing.
Where is Casey?
Molly!
If he'’s hurt in anyway I swear to God.
He'’s fine
for now.
Katherine
a moment.
What does that mean?
I want to know what happened to Casey.
I'’M TALKING TO YOU!
[IMPACT SOUND]
Are you done?
Good.
Molly what is wrong with you?
You have no idea what these people can do.
Did you see what he did to me with his mind before?
I'’m sorry
I was just worried about Casey.
I know
I'’m actually starting to like the kid
But
We have to be careful here
this world is very new to us
I didn'’t even know powers existed
2 hours ago.
I know
I'’m just overwhelmed with all of this.
I know
Me too
Huh
How are you doing by the way?
I'’ll be fine
I mean
about mom.
You'’re right Mickey.
Mom died the minute that car crashed
That thing wasn'’t our mother.
Molly
I remember she used to hum this song to us
right before we fell asleep
right when she tucked us in.
Sometimes I close my eyes and I hum that song
and I see her face.
the real her
I'’ll be fine
I'’m
I think I'’m finally at peace with mom'’s death.
I'’m so sorry you had to see that.
I would give anything
I know
Thanks.
You know, I know I have always
said I would protect you
I haven'’t done that.
I haven'’t been the big brother you deserved.
Maybe
but you'’ve bee the big brother that I needed.
You may be the most stubborn
arrogant big brother out there.
But you'’re always there when I need you the most.
and I always will be.
Me too
We'’ll be a family again.
I promise.
So
What do you think of Casey?
I like him.
He's very enthusiastic.
Yeah
He really want to be a hero.
Well
if he doesn'’t die
he'’ll be the first in a very long time.
What?
What are you talking about?
What did you do?
You said he needs to learn in hours.
What did you do Sam?
I put him in the mirror of death.
Huh
Great
now he'’s probably dead
Relax
He'’s not ready for that Sam.
Do
He just got his powers.
Do you think his enemies are gonna wait for him to be ready?
Damn it.
You'’re right.
What'’s wrong?
Huh
Nothing
Sam what is it?
When we were in the Unknown World
I heard things
Rumors
I always thought it was just a myth
humans like to believe
But now I question
is it really a myth or
What myth?
The Eclipse.
[FUNNY MUSIC]
Alright
Was this your card?
No?
Ok let me try again.
[IMPACT SOUND]
Oh hey guys
Who is up for a game?
Sure!
Interesting.
What'’s happening?
What the f...
He is the mirror of death.
He sees deep into your soul
and he conjures your inner demons in front of you.
One way to defeat him is to kill him
and free yourself from your fears
and doubts
releasing your true powers.
Why isn'’t he fighting?
I'’ve never seen anything like it
Instead of sparring with him
he spared him.
and embraced him.
Amazing.
That'’s Casey!
So why do you call this the mirror of death?
I think he needs some rebranding.
You know
I thought this guy was cool.
Up top
Nope
We'’re getting there.
He was one of those
men in the black robes
reading the black books?
How do you know about those?
Wait
Could it be?
No.
They were following...
That's impossible.
I
I thought they were yours
they were following me.
The brothers of the black book
They only appear when there is a new reader
I hate those black books.
What does it mean?
They follow the new reader around
to see if he's worthy.
Great
One of them is the reader
and one of them is the savior.
New York City is doomed.
Michael?
Wait who who who
Michael is the reader?
Oh
I'’m here to save you man.
First of all, there is no way this kid is protecting me
and I'm not a reader.
I'’m never wrong.
Well huh
I'm sorry to tell you this time you are.
[SUSPENSE MUSIC]
You see
I'm never wrong.
[SNAP]
Attention!
[CHAIR HIT THE GROUND]
Just letting everyone know
that if you damage my lair
I will kill all of you.
Now
without further due
FIGHT!
[APPLE BITE]
Whoah
What the hell is going on here?
[IMPACT SOUND]
Oh
Hey mister
What are you doing laying in the garbage?
Oh you know
Just huh
Grapling with the fact
that huh
my new friend'’s brother
is the guy I have been looking for
this whole time
and
that dense
SOB
doesn't even realise that the
the fate of this city rests
in his well manicured hands.
Oh
and by the way
guess whose
shoulders it realizes on
to huh
stop this city from being destroyed?
Yeah that'’s right
you'’re looking at him.
Do you have any idea how much pressure I'm under?
Huh...
Can I have a donut?
Hello?
Casey?
Hello?
Molly!
Where are you?
I'’m somewhere in the city
But that doesn'’t matter now
listen
If your brother dies
half of New York goes with him.
I need to get to him now
Wait
You know where he is?
SAM!
[DOOR CLOSES]
You must know
Where they'’re going?
Of course I do
26 Luke Street
How do you know that?
Where is that?
It'’s where the initiation of all the new readers happens.
Has been for centuries.
You know
For you guys to be comic book fans
and some of you comic book characters
You must not read them a lot.
Sheesh
[YONING]
Ok.
I have seen a lot over my centuries
but let me tell you this
that was an interesting plot twist.
I'’ve gotta go find him.
And yet it keeps getting better
[FINGER SNAP]
Katherine
you know what will make this great
popcorn.
Why don'’t you go be a dear
and see if there is any over there for me?
Are you guys seriously
arguing over popcorn right now?
Half the population is about to go ghost
and you'’re talking about a salty snack?
I don'’t have time for this
my brother could be dead already.
You guys stay here and argue about popcorn
I'’m gonna go find him somehow.
Wait Molly
Molly what are you doing?
And there she goes
I guess there is nothing I can do about it.
Things just got more serious than you know.
We must go now.
We cannot wait any longer.
Finally I'm glad
that you are able to snap out of popcorn frenzy
and take this seriously.
Wait where are we going?
26 Luke Street.
The time is now
we must leave.
There
we will find the best popcorn in town.
We cannot go another day without that popcorn.
Let's go Katherine.
[FOOT STEPS]
[SCARY MUSIC]
Any news on who the reader is
and where he may be now?
Negative, your majesty!
WELL, DON'’T JUST STAND THERE!
WE MUST FIND HIM IN ONE HOUR
NEW YORK CITY MUST BE DESTROYED
The end of the world starts today by my hands
and the next stop
Heaven.
JUKI IN HERE NOW!
[IMPACT SOUND]
Do I really have to remind you
how important this mission is.
It is my destiny
in your soul and vowel
you have vowed to be my trusty servent
and do my binding.
Yet all I see is
a bumbling idiot
who can'’t find one single reader.
Do I have to remind you
that I will tear you apart
limb by limb?
And burn your body
until there is nothing left
but a scorch mark
on the earth from where you stand.
[IMACT SOUND]
We know the reader is related to the Parks family
our search led us to the Parks family
and we will now know the identity of the reader.
[EVIL LAUGH]
And like a trusty map
the good book shows us the holy revelation.
The time is now!
We must eliminate the reader at any cost.

They'’re merely initiating him

Eclipse

Hey while I got you here
there is question I'’ve been meaning to ask you.
Hum
So who wrote the S Man comics?
Well you'’ll find out soon enough.
That'’s kinda half of an answer.
[BACK TAP]
Are you sure you can'’t come?
They are all waiting for you,
It is your party Mr Parks.
Ah, Josh
know that I cannot.
Tonight we begin Phase 2.
Are you ready?
Absolutely sir.
You are right
a new world begins tonight.
I'’m very excited sir.
I'’ll do my best to get your message across.
Thank you Josh.
And
tell
Tell Molly that I love her
with everything that I have.
and
let the guests know there is a new superhero in town.
His name is Ink.
Will do.
Good luck sir.
Hey luck is not in my vocabulary
I'’m Michael Parks
don'’t forget it.
May I have everyone'’s attention please.
First of all
I want to thank all of you
for coming out tonight.
I'’m Josh Newman
spokesman of Michael Parks.
Unfortunately
Michael is not able to be with us this evening
and I'’ll be speaking on his behalf.
As of yesterday
Michael sold his company E.Y.E
[APPLAUSE]
[CHEERS]
Although Michael doesn'’t have his company.
Now Michael has one big bag of cash.
[APPLAUSE]
[CHEERS]
He'’s Michael Parks after all.
The last 24 hours
how can I say this
if you only saw Michael.
Michael told me
he has learned a couple of important things
from all of this.
Number one:
Family.
Michael has learned the importance of family
and how much he truly loves
his little sister Molly.
Molly
you'’re real badass.
Michael loves you
and
he'’ll always be here for you.
Secondly:
Michael has learned
how important it is to dream.
If you have a dream
go for it.
Don'’t listen to anybody
don'’t even listen to some rich pretentious preak
just fight for it
chase your dreams.
Molly I'’m very happy
your dream of reconnecting with your brother came true.
One last thing
before I end
I want you all the rest peacefully
knowing
that there is a hero
watching over all of us
watching over our families
and watching over our city.
His name is Ink.
LET'’S PARTY!
[CHEERS]
[APPLAUSE]
I knew you could do it.
Thanks.
[TAP ON THE TABLE]
What'’s that?
Huh it'’s an app
Michael set it up for me.
It looks into police alerts
tells me when there is crime nearby.
I gotta go!
Woah
Good luck!
Oh hello Josh

Where is Michael Parks by the way?
Actually, good question.
Hey Kitty!
You feel that?
No.
It can'’t be.
That'’s impossible.
How did they find me?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
No way!
The 8th right hand man of God herself,
right here on earth.
Traitor Samuel Pikows.
Namasta.
How did you find me?
None of us were able to locate you in the Unknown World.
So we lost your trail.
But you made the grave mistake
of coming back to earth.
Your head is wanted through out the entire kingdom
and is our biggest bounty.
I, Namasta
the 8th right hand man of God
am here to take you back to the kingdom.
I cannot leave
I'’m here to train this new generation of superheroes.
The lord of the shadow world is powering up
and will destroy all of earth.
We just destroyed one of his loyal soldiers
who calls himself Airman
NONSENSE!
The king of the shadow world would have never allowed such a thing
Samuel Pikows
you betrayed God himself
while you were still a member
of the last generation of Superheroes.
NAMASTA KANA!
READY!
