Vol. 1, No. 2, October 1993.
Blood on Hollywood Boulevard.
The answers to these queries lie in a secret war fought decades ago, wherein two warring alien nations used Earth as their battlefield, and in the evil genius of the psychotic Paragon John, whose hatred and jealousy of the heroes who have driven him to become the most powerful man in the world -- and a deadly enemy to all Hyperkind.
The Hyperkind will meet these challenges with more than fists and fury. Their skills, as I've said, represent aspects of human consciousness, and as they mature in their roles they will come to better understand the spiritual nature of their own task. Somewhere up ahead -- maybe five years from now, maybe fifty -- humanity is going to take an extraordinary evolutionary leap. They are the first fragile hope for that new kind of humanity; an experiment in heroism. If it succeeds -- if the second Paxis prospers where the first self-destructed -- then humanity has a future. If it fails, then the enemies of our species -- the many entities who would prefer us to stay locked in our selfishness, stupidity and self-deception because it better serves their plans to destroy or enslave us -- will have the sign they need, and the years that humanity has left will dwindle to a handful, and finally -- all too soon -- to nothing.
