In "Mother's Day!", Marcia King, a grieving mother still reeling from the murder of her daughter, confronts the two thugs who bragged about the crime on the subway—only to see them walk free due to lack of evidence. As her grief turns to rage, she resolves to take justice into her own hands, drawing the attention of both the Vigilante and the Electrocutioner, who are also hunting a fugitive drug czar. With Dave Winston and Harry Stein caught in the crossfire, and Dr. Knopf offering uneasy counsel, the line between vengeance and justice blurs in a story that asks what it truly means to protect the innocent.
