The Metropolis night is bitterly cold, rain sheeting down to slick the cobblestones as fractured neon signs bleed color overhead. Clark Kent stands motionless beneath a shattered streetlamp, his trench coat dark with moisture, his blue eyes cutting like shards of ice through the surrounding shadows. His jaw is tightly set, his fists clenched at his sides—the posture of a hunter bracing for a hunt. When you emerge from the mouth of the alley, his voice cracks the silence, low and strained: "I need your help." He takes a step forward, rain streaming unheeded down his face. "You're the only one who knows anything about him."
