Character(s): Connie; So-Hi; Snapdragon; Ahmed; Sgt. Baker; Bianca; stake-out patrolman; monks;

First Line: We have lost a brother, my friends... one of us, one of the family.

Synopsis: Connie and her followers, Snapdragon and So-Hi, lament the death of Jeff (previous issue) in an erotic ritual. Sgt. Baker interrupts the group to warn them of twelve more victims who ended up just like Jeff. So-Hi and Snapdragon monitor the bus station and more cops monitor them. Snapdragon and So-Hi spot cultist monks abducting two boys fitting the profile of Bianca's preferred prey. They split up, with Snapdragon returning to fetch Connie. Beneath the city, the two victims are presented to Bianca while So-Hi is also caught by the monks in thrall to Bianca.

Notes: The erotic content manifests in the sexualized rituals of characters that are inexplicably nude (and aroused) for the majority of the scenes, culminating in a lesbian pairing and a female-on-male rape-murder. The narrative and dialog more than once attempt organically to clarify that all characters are of legal age, but it's worth a cautionary note that the artist's drawing style contradicts this.
