Besides, there was a new edition of the Bitterwoman/Y-Men ( Read more... )

Sarah had done good work the night before. The hostages were home to their families, the aliens were gone. It wasn't the same as CIA work, but it was close enough that she at least felt less than completely useless as she opened the comics store this morning ( Read more... )
