      October is the rainiest month of the year, the most unbearable month of the year. It is unbearable for those who need to leave the house to go to the bank, the market, the bakery. I had to go to the bank, to the market, the bakery. And I didn’t have

      The story of Sisyphus is one I have never understood as it is told. In the Greek story, Sisyphus is “punished” by Zeus by being forced to eternally roll a boulder up a hill. In my opinion, this was not a punishment, but a gift. Sisyphus was gifted a

      TWO YEARS AGO

      A man awoke in a rundown motel room. He looked around. Rubbing his eyes, he felt as if his mind was full of concrete. He noticed he wore a simple black t-shirt, black jeans, black boots and fingerless fighting gloves. A black trench coat and a black baseball cap laid across a ratty chair near the window of the room.

      He rolled out of bed. His body felt like it had just ran a marathon while boxing with a bear. He stumbled into the bathroom. There, he finally got a look at himself in the mirror. Or at least what he assumed was himself.

      What now, he complained to his reflection.

      NOW

      The Professional Heroes stood in Averson Park, looking up at a man hovering above them. The trees and grass moved as if affected by some phantom breeze. Deadguy appeared as if he was visibly holding back some great pain.

      Zionus, he growled.

      You remember me, Corpse, the man asked.

      The other Heroes turned to Deadguy. You know him, Jill questioned.

      I don't know, he answered. All I know is the name 'Zionus' is ripping my brain in two right now. He pointed an accusative finger up at the man. What the fuck did you do to me?

      This conversation does not involve you, the main said. He waved his hand, and Our Hero suddenly collapsed to the ground. Kiri rushed to his side.

      What did you do to him, she yelled.

      Rebooted the system, as mortals say, he answered, no hint of emotion in his voice. He will be fine in ten minutes. He landed on the ground and started towards Jill Nemo. Valkadaidan stepped in front of him, but was flung aside as the man made a motion of
