Rain drums a steady beat on the Edge City docks as Stanley cradles a bizarre wooden find. A cop's flashlight beam sweeps close; he stammers, claiming it's his. Back in his dingy apartment, the mask throbs with a sickly green light. Hands trembling, he raises it. The wood seems to inhale, tightening around him like a living skin. A flash of searing light consumes the timid clerk. When it fades, a zoot-suited, green-faced specter of pure bedlam stands in his place.
