☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Two-Step, Part One," London’s Frost Fair becomes a frozen battleground when cam-girl Rosi Blade and the enigmatic zen gunman Tony Ling are caught in a crossfire after Tony steals a mysterious item known as the "trousersnake." Written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Amanda Conner, with inks by Jimmy Palmiotti and colors by Paul Mounts, this 2011 DC story blends surreal action with sharp wit, as Rosi and Tony flee through the icy chaos—only to awaken a far more dangerous threat. The cover, also by Amanda Conner, captures the moment’s absurd tension perfectly.
In a vibrant, off-kilter London of 2001—where mutants walk the streets and neon skies pulse with life—Rosi Blades, a cam-girl perpetually bored with her own routine, stumbles into chaos when Tony Ling, a zen gunman with a penchant for the black market, takes off after a thief carrying a mysterious trombone case. What starts as a collision of irritation and adrenaline quickly spirals into a reckless chase through clubs and alleys, ending with a theft that reveals the case holds something far more personal than anyone expected.
In the frozen chaos of London’s Frost Fair, Rosi Blade and Tony Ling are thrown together once more—this time with bullets flying and ice cracking beneath their feet. As Rosi dodges danger with sharp wit and a surprising aim, Tony urges her to embrace the moment, even as their escape spirals into something far more dangerous. With the gangleader awakening a monstrous ally, their only hope is reaching Rosi’s house—before the next nightmare begins.
In "Two-Step, Part 3," Rosi Blade and Tony Ling find themselves trapped in a high-stakes chase after being captured by gangsters and handed over to the bizarre Dirty Ron, whose twisted "power" involves detonating things he’s physically connected to—especially cars. With Ron’s mind twisted by the bad guys to see them as vehicles to be destroyed, Rosi uses her wits to hack the feed and turn the explosion against their captors. As the building erupts, the two leap onto a scooter and plunge through a window, using Tony’s calm focus to glide down the side of the structure just in time. Their journey ends with a quiet, shared moment as they coast toward the Thames, the city lights fading behind them.
