"Web of Evil, Chapter One" kicks off in Palmettoville with a moody, character-driven mystery as Coley arrives under suspicion, drawn into a web of secrets and desire. Written and illustrated entirely by John Blackburn, the story unfolds with sharp, noir-tinged tension as Coley’s search for a "gang of killers" collides with the town’s dangerous allure—where every smile hides a secret and every encounter could be a trap. The cover by Blackburn captures the story’s eerie, magnetic pull, setting the tone for a tale where trust is scarce and danger wears many faces.

Coley arrives in Palmettoville, and is eyed suspiciously by Chief Beasley, who suggests he can get a room at Palmetto House, but advises he leave town quickly. Coley interrupts Billy beating up Joey. Joey tells Coley about his friend's murder. At Palmetto House, Carolina is quickly smitten with Coley, and moves him into her room. He tells her he's looking for a "gang of killers". Beasley, who realizes Coley is a lot nicer than he seems, discusses the murders with him. Rich girl Samantha Bishop invites Coley to perform at her mansion; both she and her friend Douglas O'Hara are attracted to him. Miz Liza, protective of Carolina, shows her how wild & uncontrollable Coley is, then offers him the formula for the voodoo sex potion-- something no "Mojo" has ever had before-- if he'll just leave her alone. Coley does, and shacks up with Joey instead. In a bad part of town, Maggie O'Hara has her way with Coley, then tells him she has videotape evidence of one of the killings. He urges her to take it to the police before anything else happens. Kit arrives in town, introducing herself to Carolina. On his way to church, Joey is kidnapped by Billy.
