Hellblazer #227 - Vertigo


I like this story. And I like this idea. But the whole thing is starting to drag a little bit. Evans has gone on TV to try to get good people to come and help them. They found out that they can overcome the Empathy with emotion. Actually, good emotion, positivity, enlightenment, goodness. And they only have two hours left. Meanwhile Gemma, Angie and Chas are trying to gather up all the Praexus and keep them distracted while they bring in the "good people". They're using the standard delaying tactics, porn, candy, etc.. Well the people finally show up. Now John and Evans just need to direct them. The problem they have now though is that Chas may be to far gone. The Master of the Third Place is trying to take him over and use his imagination as a weapon. They also have another problem. All the military that's surrounding the city is all caught up in listening to the game, England vs. Portugal in the quarter finals of the World Cup. The problem is it's creating a ring of Malevolence surrounding the city. Their fate may be in the hands of the outcome of the game. If they win, they'll be happy. If they lose, they'll probably become a murderous mob. Right now the score is, nil, nil.
