“Snake Oil“
Jimmy Tilton is sick and the group has no idea what to do. The once human turned into a snake like metahuman drifts in and out of consciousness. The memories of his childhood were always bad. All those doctors and all those treatments were nothing compared to the experiments. Jimmy’s father always promised a cure but the government doctors wanted another result.
Slither gains consciousness again. Scare Tactics is in the middle of a debate. Do they take their friend to the hospital and risk exposure? They must! Burnsteel puts the peddle to the metal and they arrive at St. Judes within the hour. Unfortunately, the front desk paperwork takes that and then some.
Will Jimmy Tilton get to see a doctor in time? Does Arnie’s “Bill Gates” platinum card talk, or does bullsh*t walk? Which band member road trips to Gotham and which one goes to Metropolis? Can you really buy VR gear at Radio Hut? Collect the series to find out!
Reviewer Notes
This is the Jimmy “Slither” Tilton origins storyline! Some really cool artwork in this issue as well. Sick Bill Gates and Radio Shack reference, bro!
DC Comics splits up the band for a four part special event. These events happen between issues 9 and 10 of Scare Tactics. Great, now I have to buy more comics.
