Starlin Munro, a high-flying aerialist, faces an unexpected legal challenge when Games official Banjani imposes an inertia injunction on his career, thrusting him into a tense negotiation with his lawyer. As he navigates strained friendships and shifting alliances, including a late-night visit with his friend Trae, the story unfolds with quiet intensity, exploring how personal choices ripple through a society transformed by the cultivation of hemp. The issue’s moody atmosphere and introspective pacing are brought to life by Wagner’s distinctive artwork, with full creative control evident in both the interior and cover.

He meets with his lawyer in her opulent home, where she speaks of how the cultivation of hemp has reshaped their culture, and later spends the night with his friend Trae, who’s clearly annoyed by his tardiness.
