3: Shock Treatment - 2000AD prog 538 London: May 6, 1987: Ruby Fox is having a bad day. Apart from the a strong migraine and wonky vision she’s had to put up with more press interviews about Cloud 9, and the loss of her super-powers. On top of all that, she gets a surprise visit from Masterman. As he advances on her, she tries in desperation to reach the electric socket on the wall with her mind - and succeeds! All the electrical appliances in the room explode - shooting bolts of electricity through Masterman. Ruby crashes through the flat window and manages to fly away, leaving her flat burning with her enemy inside. Ruby’s super-powers are back, but Masterman survives the fire. |
