Things continue to spiral out of control for Hermes and his friends as a blood thirsty bounty hunter zeroes in on them. This deadly assassin will stop at nothing to get what is bouncing around Hermes's head, no matter how many lives are lost in the process. In a world where humans alter and augment themselves with technology and genetic mutation no one is safe. The penultimate chapter of Metal Locus is written by Stephan Nilson (Batman Strikes) and illustrated by Larry Watts (Army of Darkness).
