by request, Huntress/Question (pt 1)
I wanted to start my Vic Sage series with Ditko and work chronologically from there, but a request is a request, so here we go!
After all, everything needs to start somewhere, and this story is where both Huntress/Question and Rucka!Question debut, so what better to post than
Batman Chronicles #15? Following stories of Kyle Rayner and Batman, Oracle and Man-Bat, is this 10-pager set during No Man's Land. Ugly art, for that I apologize.
(imageshack keeps timing out, so i had to go with tinypic this time. can i just say i hate their interface?)
Helena's just taken down an attack on a supply van when a stranger shows up. Instinctively, she shoots. He catches her bolt.
Not one page, and he's already started the puns. Rucka wastes no time.
They deliver the morphine to the doctors. Their patient is Carlotta Espinoza, trapped under rubble for 27 hours before she was found with the bodies of her husband and six-month-old son. Helena tells herself she understands why Carlotta screams better than the doctors ever will. She tells Vic Carlotta screams for justice.
"Don't we all?" Vic asks.
(moved that first panel to fit the crop)
They confront the supply sergeant. Turns outs one of the National Guard guys is hitting the supply trucks to sell the morphine on the streets. They make short work of his gang, and Helena has him pinned.
(gasp!)
And he's gone as quickly and mysteriously as he came in. Is this the start of a bee-yoo-tee-ful friendship, or just a pain in Helea's ass? Only time (and my next post) will tell!

And here, have some JLU. There's one that has all the Vic/Helena in the series, but it's padded with a lot of just Vic (it's also the vid that inspired me to buy my JLU dvds), so here's just one scene from Question Authority.
