001: The World At Large The place: Earth! The time: Soon! / Welcome to the future!

Walter lives in the corporate-controlled dystopia...
002: Somewhat Close To Social [Scene: Kuiper Terminal Bar And Lounge. WALTER is staring at an "alien" sitting a few stools away.] / LLOYD: You're looking at my conspicious lack of mouth, aren't you? / WALTER: Uh... / WALTER: No! No! Of course not! ...Well, yeah.

004: Less Talk, More Rawk WALTER: So I tried to forget my dream, but there was always... kind of a little voice in the back of my mind, telling me to do something different tfor once.

008: An Informal Reception DEXTROSE: This is it, guys. Allied Vectors HQ. Situated right on top of the first nexus put into issue. It's a real thing of beauty. ...Okay, not really.

009: Now That's What I Call Character Development [Dextrose returns.] / DEXTROSE: Hey. Did you get in? / WALTER: Yes. Yes, that's right.
