A tragic turn of events leaves a pregnant woman slumped dead on her staircase. From her corpse, a fetus emerges. But this is no ordinary fetus. Our boyish survivor possesses bizarre half-formed powers: partial invisibility, chill wave generation, the ability to slither cobra-like upon his crushed legs, plus one heck of a punch.
Who is this child? Some kind of superhero? The first sign of the Apocalypse? Just buy the damn book already.
Then, in three sci-fi horror tales:
Giant flesh-hungry beetles! An undead body donor! A nostalgia-driven man who discovers that the past is far worse than remembered!
What malevolent thread links these occurrences? Investutech, that’s what, the number one threat to our multiverse.
