"Things are getting out of control. Everyone's looking for Doktor Sleepless. But there's no sign that any of what's going wrong -- murders, destruction, massive amounts of new drugs, war on the streets, domestic terrorism, riots -- is actually his doing. No-one's seen him. In fact, the only person ever seen coming out of the house on the hill is the Nurse. Which makes journalist Sarah Berlin wonder: Is Doktor Sleepless already dead?

"(W) Warren Ellis (A) Ivan Rodriguez The penultimate episode of the second volume: Everyone's looking for Doktor Sleepless. Heavenside's on fire, everything's falling apart, everyone's looking for someone to save them. Is this the point at which Doktor Sleepless emerges from his long seclusion? Would that in fact be the worst possible thing that could happen? Or is he actually really dead? Has he been dead all along? And what would happen when an army of Grinders who treat him like God discover that? Things are out of control. Things are about to start exploding. No guarantees who lives.
