YOU'RE A PAIN IN THE ASS, MARCUS.

I WANT THE TWO OF YOU TO TAKE
SHASHONA AS FAR AS HE NEEDS TO GO,

THEN HEAD SOUTH ON YOUR WAY BACK.

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT'S
GOING ON IN THAT PART OF THE COUNTRY.

NOT A PROBLEM.

WE CAN HELP THE MANY LOST PEOPLE OUT THERE.

HOW TO HUNT,

HOW TO PLANT CROPS,

BUILD SHELTERS, HARVEST THE RAIN.

YOU LEARN ALL THAT STUFF GROWIN' UP?

HELL, NO.
I GREW UP IN A CASINO ON RESERVATION LAND.

I LEARNED HOW TO PLAY BLACKJACK
AND WIRE SLOT MACHINES.

I WAS JUST LUCKY THAT SOME OF THE OTHERS

WERE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE OLD WAYS,

SO, NOW WHAT I KNOW, I--I GIVE TO OTHERS.

I WILL MEET YOU AT THE ROVER IN 20.

SO, YOU GONNA COME SEE US OFF,
OH, GREAT PAIN IN THE ASS?

NO. I HAVE THINGS TO DO.

I'LL TALK TO YOU WHEN YOU GET BACK.

THAT WAS SHORT.

IT'S JUST THE WAY HE IS.

EVERY DAY, ABOUT THIS TIME,
HE GOES OFF BY HIMSELF.

WHY?

NOBODY KNOWS.

NOBODY KNOWS WHERE, EITHER.

WELL,
IT'S GOTTA BE SOMEWHERE INSIDE THE COMPOUND.

YES, BUT THERE ARE PARTS OF THUNDER MOUNTAIN

THAT HAVE BEEN ISOLATED FROM THE REST,

PRESUMABLY FOR SAFETY REASONS.

NOBODY'S ALLOWED IN THERE.

EXCEPT MARCUS.

EXCEPT MARCUS.

THAT'S FUNNY.

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE BUILDING A WORLD

WHERE SECRETS WEREN'T NECESSARY ANYMORE.

EVEN IN THE DARKNESS, I KNOW YOU'RE THERE.

IS THAT A TERRIFIC METAPHOR OR WHAT?

I BROUGHT YOU DINNER.

YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING THE OTHER DAY,

IT'S IRONIC, ISN'T IT?

HERE, EVERY DAY, YOU KEEP ME ALIVE,

BUT IF I WERE TO GET OUT,

I'D ONLY BRING YOU DEATH.

WHAT RELATIONSHIP DOESN'T
HAVE ITS LITTLE UPS AND DOWNS?

DEAR DAD,

IT'S BEEN 15 YEARS

SINCE THE BIG DEATH WIPED OUT
EVERYONE OVER THE AGE OF INNOCENCE...

THE END OF YOUR WORLD,

THE BEGINNING OF MINE.

ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T NEED AN ESCORT?

BETTER WITHOUT.

CRAMPS MY STYLE.

THERE'S A LOT OF ROUGH GUYS WALKIN'
AROUND DOWN THERE.

THEY DON'T LISTEN VERY WELL.

THEY'D JUST AS SOON KILL
YOU FOR WHAT YOU GOT

AS LET YOU TEACH 'EM HOW TO GROW CROPS.

MY FATHER SAID:

"YOU CANNOT BE A MAN WITHOUT TAKIN'
CHANCES NOW AND THEN."

JUST ONE THING, THOUGH.

DOES THIS BUCKSKIN MAKE MY ASS LOOK FAT?

NO,
THAT IS ONE FINE-LOOKIN' NATIVE AMERICAN ASS.

MY ASS AND I THANK YOU.

YOU AND YOUR ASS ARE WELCOME.
GOOD LUCK, SHASHONA.

WHAT'S UP?

THAT SHASHONA GUY WE JUST DROPPED OFF,

THINKIN' HE'S GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD.

MARCUS'S BUNCH,

THINKIN' THEY'RE GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD.

HELL, ME AND YOU DRIVIN' AROUND,
GETTIN' INTO SHIT,

THINKIN' WE'RE GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD.

WHAT'RE THE ODDS, JEREMIAH?

YOU EVER STOP AND THINK ABOUT
HOW BIG THE WORLD IS, JEREMIAH?

YEAH, I THINK I'VE GOT A PRETTY FAIR IDEA.

DID YOU SEE THAT?

SO HOW THE HELL ARE 2 GUYS LIKE US

GOIN' TO CHANGE SOMETHIN' THAT BIG?

SO WHAT'RE YOU SAYING, KURDY?
YOU WANT TO QUIT?

I JUST WANNA KNOW WE GOT A CHANCE,
THAT'S ALL,

'CAUSE IT SURE AS HELL DON'T FEEL LIKE IT.

IT'S LIKE WE CAN'T DO A GODDAMNED THING--

HALT!

HOLD ON!

DON'T WORRY, CITIZEN, YOU'RE SAFE NOW.

DON'T WORRY, CITIZEN,

YOU'RE SAFE NOW.

WAS IT NICE TODAY, OUTSIDE?

WARM, A SLIGHT WIND OUT OF THE SOUTH.

OH, WIND...

IT'S BEEN ABOUT 15 YEARS SINCE I'VE
FELT THE WIND ON MY FACE, MARCUS,

OR THE SUN, OR...

WALKED MORE THAN 12 FEET IN ANY DIRECTION.

YOU'LL SEE IT AGAIN, MEAGHAN. I PROMISE.

MARCUS...

DON'T WRITE CHECKS YOUR SOUL CAN'T CASH.

I HAVE TO TELL YOU,

BEING DEATH INCARNATE IS
A REAL BITCH SOME DAYS.

BENEFITS ARE LOUSY, THE PAY STINKS,

BUT I GET...

TO MAKE MY OWN HOURS...

AND...

AND I HAVE YOU.

NOT TOO BAD A BARGAIN,
ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.

YOU REALLY WENT TO TOWN ON THIS SPLINT,
KURDY.

I DON'T THINK IT'S BROKEN.

WE GOTTA GET BACK UP TO THE ROVER, MAN,

SEE WHAT KIND OF CONDITION IT'S IN.

KURDY?

HEY,

KURDY?

OH, MAN.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. HE'LL BE FINE.

I BROUGHT 2 OF MY TRUSTED ALLIES.

TOGETHER, WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH BATTLE,
AND DARKNESS AND DESPAIR--

YOU'RE IN THE WAY.

UH, ANYWAY, THIS IS MY SISTER
SHELLY AND HER HUSBAND, MIKE.

HEY.

HEY, WE BETTER GET HIM BACK TO OUR PLACE.
MIKE.

WHAT, ARE YOU KIDDIN'?
LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THIS GUY.

YOUR FRIEND'LL BE JUST FINE. COME WITH ME.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

CAPTAIN IRON, EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.

FRIEND TO THE MEEK,

HELPER OF THE OPPRESSED,

HERO TO THE MASSES, SAVIOR OF--

HEY, CAPTAIN RUST,

YOU WANNA GIVE US A HAND
WITH THIS GUY OR NOT?

OH, HE'S RIGHT. UM, WE'LL FINISH THIS LATER.

WAIT A MINUTE. WAIT!

I REMEMBER YOU.
YOU WERE STANDING IN THE ROAD UP THERE.

I HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS YOU.

WHICH WAS COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY.

AFTER ALL, I'M INVULNERABLE.

YOU COULDN'T HAVE HURT ME.

"STRIKE ME DOWN AND I SHALL ARISE AGAIN."

ANYWAY, I WAS JUST TRYING TO WARN YOU
ABOUT THE BANDITS WATCHING THE ROAD

ABOUT A QUARTER OF A MILE DOWN.

THEY LOOK FOR UNWARY TRAVELERS,

AND THEN THEY DRIVE THEM OFF THE ROAD,

OFTEN INJURING THEM IN THE PROCESS.

EXCUSE ME.

WOULDN'T IT BE TERRIBLE IF
SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAD HAPPENED?

VINCENT, HI.

OH, ERIN, SORRY, I DIDN'T SEE YOU.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.
JUST WANTED TO SEE HOW THINGS WERE GOING.

FINE.

GOOD.
AND MARCUS IS GETTING EVERYTHING HE NEEDS?

MARCUS?

YES, THE...

YOU KNOW, STUFF YOU BRING HIM.

NOBODY'S SUPPOSED TO KNOW ABOUT THAT.

YOU'RE RIGHT, ABSOLUTELY NOBODY.

OF COURSE, AS HIS RIGHT HAND,
I KNOW ALL ABOUT THAT.

THAT IS TO SAY, I SHOULD KNOW
EVERYTHING THAT GOES ON AROUND HERE,

BECAUSE IF I DIDN'T KNOW EVERYTHING
THAT WENT ON AROUND HERE,

I WOULDN'T BE A VERY GOOD RIGHT HAND,
NOW WOULD I?

AND SINCE I AM A VERY GOOD RIGHT HAND,

I WOULD HAVE TO KNOW ABOUT THIS, WOULDN'T I?

YEAH, I GUESS SO. I--

SO IS HE GETTING EVERYTHING HE NEEDS?

I SUPPOSE SO.

WELL, HE'S GONNA RUN OUT OF
PLASTIC FORKS PRETTY SOON, BUT--

PLASTIC FORKS?

YEAH, YOU SEE, EVERY DAY I BRING
HIM A PLATE OF FOOD FROM THE KITCHEN

WITH ONE PLASTIC FORK, ONE PLASTIC KNIFE.

NOW, THE PLASTIC KNIVES WE HAVE PLENTY OF.

THEY STOCKED THIS PLACE PRETTY GOOD.

BUT WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE FORKS.

SEE,
SOME ANIMALS GOT INTO THE STOREROOM AND...

LONG STORY.

ANYWAYS,
WE NEED TO FIND SOME FORKS PRETTY SOON,

BECAUSE HE NEVER SEEMS TO BRING
HIS BACK AFTER HE HAS LUNCH.

THAT IS WHAT HE'S DOING, RIGHT?
HAVING LUNCH?

I FIGURED HE JUST LIKES
TO GET AWAY FROM EVERYONE,

HAVE SOME QUIET TIME, YOU KNOW.

OF COURSE.

WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?

THANKS, VINCENT.

NOT A PROBLEM, ERIN.

HOW IS HE DOING?

WELL, HIS ARM'S BROKEN, THAT'S FOR SURE.

THE REST, I DON'T KNOW.
IT COULD BE A MILD CONCUSSION.

IT COULD BE MUCH WORSE.

WELL, THERE'S A PLACE

THAT I COULD TAKE HIM WHERE
THEY COULD FIX HIM UP.

I JUST GOTTA GET BACK TO MY TRUCK,

SEE HOW BANGED UP IT IS.

LISTEN, COULD I, UH,
LEAVE HIM HERE WITH YOU WHILE I GO?

I JUST NEED TO HAVE A LOOK AT IT AND SEE
WHAT IT'S GONNA TAKE TO GET IT FIXED.

YEAH, IT'S NOT A PROBLEM.

ACTUALLY, IT IS A PROBLEM,

AND I APOLOGIZE

FOR BRINGING IT TO YOU.
YOU'RE VERY KIND FOR HELPING.

WELL, MY DAD TAUGHT JOHN AND I
WE GOTTA LOOK AFTER EACH OTHER.

YOU DON'T HELP PEOPLE WHEN THEY NEED IT,
NO ONE'S GONNA HELP YOU WHEN IT'S YOUR TURN.

IT'S JUST THAT SOME OF US HAVE
TAKEN IT TO A WHOLE NEW LEVEL.

I SAVED THEM FROM THE BANDITS.

CAPTAIN IRON SAVES THE DAY AGAIN.

IS THAT--

YEAH, THAT'S JOHN.

SHELLY KNOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF
MAINTAINING MY SECRET IDENTITY,

BUT I THINK I CAN TRUST YOU.

YOU'RE MY KIND OF PERSON.

UH...

WHY IS HE...

IT'S A LONG STORY.

NO, IT'S NOT. HE'S A NUT.
THAT'S IT, SHORT AND TO THE POINT.

DAMN IT, MIKE--

LOOK, I--I HATE TO INTERRUPT, REALLY,

BUT, UM, I GOTTA GET BACK TO MY TRUCK.

DO YOU THINK MAYBE ONE OF YOU COULD TAKE ME?

I'LL DO IT.

CAPTAIN IRON STANDS READY TO ASSIST YOU,
CITIZEN.

UM...

HE DOES KNOW THE WAY.

OW.

THERE, YOU SEE, YOU'RE SMILING.

THINGS ARE GETTIN' BETTER ALREADY.

IT'S JUST FUNNY.

WHAT IS?

WHEN I WAS A KID,
I WAS A BIG FAN OF CAPTAIN IRON.

I WATCHED ALL THOSE CARTOONS,

PLAYED THE VIDEO GAMES,
I COLLECTED EVERY COMIC BOOK.

AH, MY EARLY WORK.

RIGHT.

LISTEN, WHY DO YOU DO ALL THIS?

WHAT'S THE--

SHH.

MY SUPERSONIC HEARING
HAS DETECTED SOMETHING.

THIS WAY.

BANDITS, HIGHWAYMEN...

RAIDERS. ASSHOLES.

YEAH, THAT, TOO.

THESE ARE THE ONES I
TRIED TO WARN YOU ABOUT.

THEY'VE NEVER COME THIS FAR SOUTH BEFORE.

WE SHOULD GO.

YEAH.

WE'VE HAD TO ADJUST OUR POWER ALLOCATIONS

DUE TO A 5 PERCENT INCREASE IN POPULATION,

THROUGH BIRTHS AND NEW ADDITIONS TO STAFF.

I'VE TALKED TO SOME OF THE
OTHER MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL,

AND WE'D LIKE TO HEAR ANY SUGGESTIONS
YOU MIGHT HAVE ON HOW TO CONSERVE ENERGY.

THERE ARE SOME DAMAGED SOLAR
PANELS ON THE OTHER SIDE

OF THE MOUNTAIN. WE COULD TRY TO FIX THEM.

WE COULD ALSO TURN OFF POWER TO THE AREAS

THAT HAVE BEEN CLOSED
OFF FOR SECURITY REASONS.

AFTER ALL,

IF NO ONE'S USING IT,

WHY WASTE THE ENERGY?

IF NO ONE'S USING IT,
WHAT ENERGY IS BEING WASTED?

WELL, THEN, THERE MUST BE SOME AUTOMATIC
SYSTEMS STILL OPERATIONAL IN THERE,

BECAUSE I CHECKED WITH
THE RESOURCES DEPARTMENT,

AND THEY CONFIRM THAT THERE'S A FAIRLY
SIZABLE POWER DRAIN GOING ON IN THERE.

SO SOMETHING'S TURNED ON.

IT'S PROBABLY THE BACKUP
AIR-FILTRATION SYSTEMS.

THE PROBLEM IS THEY'RE ALL INTERCONNECTED.

IF WE TURN THEM OFF,
WE RISK LOSING THE MAIN SYSTEM.

WE'LL FIND SOME OTHER WAY.

OF COURSE.

MARCUS...

DO YOU TRUST ME?

WITH MY LIFE.

HEY, MAN, HOW YOU DOING?

SEE THIS?

THIS IS THE ONLY PART OF
MY BODY THAT DOESN'T HURT.

HOW'S THE ROVER?

WELL, NOT AS BAD AS IT MIGHT BE.

WE'RE GONNA NEED SOME PARTS, THOUGH,

AND I'M NOT SURE WHERE WE'RE GONNA GET 'EM.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. HE COULD USE THE REST.

THERE'S DINNER IN THE POT OUTSIDE.
IT'S NOT MUCH,

ESPECIALLY WITH GUESTS,

BUT I'VE GOT MIKE LOOKING
FOR ANYTHING ELSE WE CAN USE.

FINE,

THEN I'LL JUST GO, UH...

PATROL THE AREA AROUND THE STOVE, THEN.

LISTEN, UH...

HOW--HOW DID HE GET LIKE THIS?

JOHN WAS ALWAYS ODD,

EVEN BEFORE THE BIG "D."

HE WAS BRIGHT, GREAT WITH COMPUTERS, BUT...

REAL QUIET, YOU KNOW?

HE'D COME HOME FROM SCHOOL

AND GO STRAIGHT UP TO HIS ROOM,
READ HIS COMICS,

WATCH T.V., PLAY HIS COMPUTER GAMES.

WE HAD A HOME THEN, YOU KNOW?

GOD, IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER
ALL THOSE THINGS WE HAD.

THEY WERE EVERYWHERE, LIKE THE AIR...

AND THEN ONE DAY, THEY WERE JUST ALL GONE.

HE LOVED SUPERHEROES.

HE LEARNED HIS MORALS FROM SUPERHEROES,

HIS SENSE OF RIGHT AND WRONG,

AND THIS BELIEF THAT WHENEVER
SOMETHING REALLY BAD HAPPENS,

HEROES APPEAR.

WHEN WE LOST OUR PARENTS...

WHEN EVERYONE ON THE WHOLE
GODDAMNED PLANET LOST THEIR PARENTS,

JOHN JUST COULDN'T HANDLE IT.

HE WOULDN'T LET ANYONE MOVE THE BODIES,

OR BURN THEM,
OR TAKE THEM TO THE HOUSES OF THE DEAD.

HE WAS SURE THIS WAS ALL
JUST SOME TERRIBLE MISTAKE,

AND OUR PARENTS WEREN'T REALLY DEAD,

BECAUSE NO ONE EVER
DIES FOREVER IN COMICS.

HE FIGURED IF HE WAITED LONG ENOUGH,

EVENTUALLY A HERO WOULD
SHOW UP TO FIX EVERYTHING,

MAKE THE WORLD WHAT IT USED TO BE,

SOMEBODY WHO COULD BRING OUR PARENTS BACK,

AND MAKE EVERYTHING OK AGAIN.

BUT NOBODY SHOWED UP.

THEN ONE DAY,
IT WAS LIKE SOMETHING JUST SNAPPED,

AND JOHN WAS GONE.

THERE WAS ONLY CAPTAIN IRON.

THE ONLY WAY FOR JOHN TO
AVOID FACING THE TRUTH

WAS FOR A HERO TO APPEAR.

SO A HERO HAD TO APPEAR, EVEN IF IT WAS HIM.

OR WHATEVER'S LEFT OF HIM,

STILL INSIDE THERE.

YOU WANNA SEE SOMETHING
NOBODY'S EVER SEEN BEFORE?

I CAN HELP YOU FIND THE PARTS YOU NEED

AT THE IRON CAVE.

AT THE WHAT? SAY NOTHING,

JUST FOLLOW ME.
PRETEND THAT YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

BUT I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

THAT'S GOOD,

BUT NOT NOW. WAIT TILL SOMEONE ASKS.

COME ON.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS, MEAGHAN,

SO I'M GONNA HAVE TO FIND
SOME WAY TO MOVE YOU.

THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

I KNOW ERIN. SHE'S NOT GONNA LET THIS GO

UNTIL SHE CHECKS OUT THIS WHOLE AREA.

THERE ARE SOME OLD ENVIRONMENT
SUITS IN THE STORAGE ROOM.

I COULD PUT YOU IN ONE OF THEM,
MOVE YOU TO ONE OF THE OTHER CLEAN ROOMS.

THE OPERATIVE PHRASE THERE WAS
"OLD ENVIRONMENT SUITS."

IF THERE'S EVEN ONE SMALL TEAR,

IF THEY'VE EVEN BEEN WORN THROUGH-- MEAGHAN,
LISTEN TO ME--

THEY PUT ME IN THIS ROOM FOR A REASON.

I AM THE NEXT BEST THING TO TYPHOID
MARY IN THE PAST HUNDRED YEARS.

I'VE GOT THE VIRUS
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BIG DEATH,

AND EVEN THOUGH IT DIDN'T KILL ME,

I'M STILL A CARRIER.

AND THOSE BACTERIA ARE ALIVE
IN MY BLOODSTREAM RIGHT NOW.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO
RISK EXPOSING THIS PLACE,

THE WHOLE WORLD?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

YOU THINK YOU CAN FIX EVERYTHING.

YOU THINK YOU CAN HELP EVERYONE.

THAT'S WHY I LOVE YOU,

BUT THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO THIS TIME.

I SWORE I'D NEVER LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO YOU,
MEAGHAN.

AND I DON'T BREAK MY PROMISES.

I KNOW.

UH, I HAD TO TURN ON ALL THE LIGHTS.

IT TAKES AWHILE.

HOLY SHIT.

YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON
I'VE EVER ALLOWED IN HERE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

WELL, IT'S...

REALLY, INCREDIBLY...

IT'S YOU.

THIS IS WHERE I KEEP MY DISGUISES,

YOU KNOW, BECAUSE SOMETIMES
CAPTAIN IRON HAS TO GO UNDERCOVER.

UH, ROPES FOR CLIMBING,

UH, GRAPPLING HOOKS, OOH, GAS MASK...

UTILITY BELT.

UH, I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT GOT THERE.

THIS IS MY ARMORY.

I KEEP THEM HERE BECAUSE IT'S COOL.

IT HELPS THEM LAST LONGER.

AND THIS...

THIS...

IS WHERE I MAKE

MY DAILY VOW.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR IT?

UH, WELL, I KIND OF--

"I AM CAPTAIN IRON, AND I WILL USE MY POWERS

"ONLY FOR GOOD, NEVER FOR EVIL.

"I WILL FIGHT INJUSTICE WHEREVER I FIND IT.

"I WILL HELP THOSE WHO
CANNOT HELP THEMSELVES.

"I AM A SPIRIT OF JUSTICE,

"AND I AM A SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE,

"AND I WILL KICK THE ASS OF THE UNRIGHTEOUS.

"I WILL BE GENTLE,

"FOR THE WORLD IS HARD,

"AND I WILL BE CARING,

"FOR THE WORLD IS HARSH,

"AND I WILL BE STRONG,
AND I WILL ENDURE PAIN,

"AND I WILL DIE BRAVELY,
AND I WILL MAKE IT ALL BETTER AGAIN,

"SO THAT THE CHILDREN WILL
NEVER HAVE TO LOOK UP IN PAIN

"AND WONDER WHY THEY LOST SO MUCH,

"WHY SO MANY HAD TO DIE,

"WHY THEY ARE STILL EVEN ALIVE.

"BECAUSE...

BECAUSE NO ONE SHOULD EVER
HAVE TO ASK THAT QUESTION."

AMEN.

THIS IS WHY I WANTED YOU TO COME.

UH...

Y-YOU REMEMBER THESE?
YOU--YOU--YOU TURN THE HANDLE,

YOU POWER THE LITTLE GENERATOR,
AND THEN, ZAMMO, LET THERE BE LIGHT.

MMM.

WELL, I FOUND A WAY TO DIVERT THE POWER

TO RECHARGE THIS.

IT'S PROBABLY THE ONLY WORKING LAPTOP

FOR 500 MILES IN ANY DIRECTION,

BUT I GOT IT GOIN'.

I-I'M GOOD WITH COMPUTERS, YOU KNOW.

YEAH, I HEARD, BUT THIS...

I-IT'S A DATABASE FOR
EVERY RESOURCE IN THE AREA.

A--A SUPERHERO NEEDS TO KNOW WHERE
TO GO FOR WHAT HE NEEDS, RIGHT?

SO I SPENT AN ENTIRE YEAR GOING
TO EVERY ABANDONED BUILDING

IN A 10-MILE RADIUS.

I INVENTORIED EVERYTHING I FOUND. HERE...

UH, MANNY'S DINER.

SEE, UH, 427 SPOONS,

422 FORKS...

YOU COUNTED EVERY SPOON?

DOES 422 SOUND LIKE I ROUNDED IT OUT?

JUST TYPE WHAT YOU NEED INTO THE SEARCH
ENGINE. IF IT'S ANYWHERE IN THIS AREA,

IT'LL SHOW UP HERE.

I'LL JUST WATCH, YOU KNOW,
MAKE SURE YOU DON'T TOUCH THE WRONG BUTTON.

MIKE!

HEY!

MIKE!

MICHAEL!

MIKE!

GRAB WHAT YOU CAN!

MICHAEL!

NO! MICHAEL!

AND THE LAST THING

IS A RADIATOR HOSE FOR THE ROVER

THAT WE ACCIDENTALLY ROLLED OVER.

HARDWARE STORE RIGHT ON SPRING STREET.

THAT'S IT?

WOW, THIS IS GREAT.

ALL WE GOTTA DO IS COLLECT THIS STUFF,

WE'LL BE ON OUR WAY IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.

I TELL YOU,
THIS IS A HELL OF A DATABASE YOU GOT HERE.

LET ME TRY SOMETHING ELSE.

WHAT'S THAT?

IT'S A PLACE MY DAD MENTIONED,

SOMEWHERE HE WAS GOING.
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND IT.

CALLED VALHALLA SECTOR.

NO!

DELETE, DELETE, DELETE!

WHAT THE HELL?

NEVER ASK, NEVER TELL.

THEY SAID, "NEVER WRITE THE WORDS!
DON'T SAY THE WORDS!"

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT VALHALLA SECTOR?
NO! DON'T...

WHAT?
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT VALHALLA SECTOR?

DON'T, PLEASE, DON'T. IT IS IMPORTANT.

PLEASE, DON'T. DON'T!

LISTEN, IT'S IMPORTANT.

LEAVE ME ALONE.

YOU'RE SITTING IN THE DARK.

BECAUSE YOU KEPT ME THERE.

I SAW HER, MARCUS.

I DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS,
BUT I KNOW WHAT SHE IS.

ERIN--

SHE'S A THREAT TO EVERY
SINGLE PERSON LIVING HERE.

SHE'S A THREAT TO THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD.

WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE?

YOU LIED TO ME.

YOU SAID YOU TRUSTED ME.

YOU SAID YOU TRUSTED ME WITH YOUR LIFE.

MY LIFE, YES, NOT HERS.

HOW DID SHE GET HERE?

DOES ANYONE ELSE ON THE
COUNCIL KNOW ABOUT HER?

NO, NO ONE. IT WAS...

SHE WAS BROUGHT HERE IN THE
LAST DAYS OF THE BIG DEATH.

THEY DISCOVERED THAT,
WHILE SHE HAD THE DISEASE

AND COULD TRANSMIT IT,

IT DIDN'T KILL HER.

SHE WAS ONLY SUPPOSED
TO BE HERE TEMPORARILY.

THEY WERE GONNA TRANSFER HER

TO THE CENTER FOR DISEASE
CONTROL IN ATLANTA.

BUT THE PILOTS GOT SICK AND DIED,

THEN THE SCIENTISTS GOT SICK AND DIED,

AND THEN ONE MORNING SHE WOKE UP
AND SHE WAS ALONE AND LOCKED IN.

EVERY ADULT IN THUNDER MOUNTAIN WAS DEAD,

INCLUDING MY PARENTS.

I WAS JUST WANDERING THE HALLS,
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO,

HOW TO SURVIVE, WHEN I FOUND HER.

SHE'D SURVIVED DAYS WITHOUT FOOD OR WATER,
UNABLE TO GET OUT,

BECAUSE THE AIRTIGHT DOORS
ONLY OPENED FROM THE OTHER SIDE.

UNLESS I DID SOMETHING,

SHE WAS GONNA DIE IN THERE.

HELP ME, PLEASE.

I'VE BEEN TAKING CARE OF HER EVER SINCE.

DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU

THAT MAYBE SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO DIE IN THERE,
MARCUS?

MAYBE THAT'S WHY THEY SET IT UP THAT WAY,

SO THAT IF THEY DIED,

SHE COULDN'T GET OUT TO
INFECT OR REINFECT THE WORLD.

IS IT FAIR TO LET 1 PERSON DIE TO SAVE 10?

10? NO.

THE WORLD? YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT!

I HAVE TO TELL THE REST
OF THE COUNCIL ABOUT THIS.

ERIN-- I CAN'T KEEP THIS SECRET, MARCUS.

IT'S--IT'S TOO BIG.

THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW SHE'S HERE,

TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF DANGER THEY'RE IN.

THEY'LL PANIC. THEY COULD...

THEY COULD DECIDE TO KILL HER.

YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.

MAYBE THEY COULD FIGURE
OUT A SOLUTION YOU MISSED.

EITHER WAY, THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW.

PLEASE DON'T DO THIS.

YOU ALWAYS SAID I HAD TO DO
WHAT I THOUGHT WAS RIGHT,

SO TOMORROW AT THE COUNCIL MEETING,
I'M TELLING THEM.

I'M SORRY, MARCUS.

SHELLY?

SHELLY! SHELLY!

THE RAIDERS, I TRIED TO STOP THEM

AND I TRIED TO FIGHT THEM,
BUT THERE WAS TOO MANY OF 'EM.

OH, LIKE HELL.

THE SON OF A BITCH RAN AND
HID DURING THE WHOLE THING.

I DID THE BEST I COULD,
BUT IT OBVIOUSLY WASN'T MUCH.

WE HAVE TO GET HER BACK.

THERE'S NO TELLING WHAT
THEY COULD BE DOING TO HER.

THERE ARE 6 OF THEM, ARMED, ALL RIGHT?

WE GO UP THERE, WE DON'T STAND A CHANCE.
THEY WILL KILL US ALL.

SHE'S YOUR WIFE. AND SHE'S YOUR SISTER.

AND I DON'T SEE YOU DOING
ANYTHING TO STOP THEM, HERO BOY.

THERE--THERE ARE--
THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY OF THEM.

NOW, YOU SHOW ME SOMEONE WHO WOULDN'T RUN.

HEY, WHERE ARE YOU GOING? TO GET HER BACK.

YOU CAN STAY IF YOU WANT.
NOBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT STAYING.

I'M GOING WITH YOU.

NO, KURDY, YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU COULD,
ALL RIGHT?

STAY HERE IN CASE WE GOTTA FALL BACK.

WE'RE GONNA NEED YOU FOR REINFORCEMENTS.

IF YOU SEE US COMIN' THROUGH HERE RUNNIN',
THAT MEANS TROUBLE'S RIGHT BEHIND.

WE SHOULD GO BY THE IRON CAVE,
PICK UP SUPPLIES.

THERE MAY NOT BE TIME.

COME ON! MOVE OUT! LET'S GO!

YEAH.

I BEAT 4 GUYS TO GO FIRST WITH YOU.

I HOPE YOU APPRECIATE IT.

FUCK YOU!

DON'T WORRY, CITIZEN, YOU'RE SAFE NOW.

JOHN, LET'S GO! COME ON!

GO!

LET'S GO!

GO!

ALL RIGHT, YOU GUYS, COME ON, GET YOUR STUFF.
LET'S GO.

JOHN, COME ON.

JOHN.

HI. I TOLD YOU...

I TOLD YOU I WAS A HERO.

I MADE IT BETTER.

I SAVED YOU, DIDN'T I?

YES. YES, YOU DID.

WHY ARE YOU CRYING? I'M, LIKE...

INVULNERABLE, YOU KNOW?

NOTHING CAN HURT ME.

"STRIKE ME DOWN

AND I SHALL ARISE AGAIN."

JOHNNY...

MOM AND DAD ARE GONE, AREN'T THEY?

YES, THEY ARE.

I MISS THEM SO MUCH.

IS IT...

IS IT OK NOW TO MISS THEM?

YES, IT IS.

I LOVE YOU, SHELLY.

I LOVE YOU.

OH...

WE SHOULD G-GET GOIN'.

THOSE GUYS ARE GONNA COME LOOKIN' FOR US.

DON'T WANT WHAT HAPPENED
TO HIM TO HAPPEN TO US.

WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU IN ALL OF THIS?

SHELLY, I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONE,

AND THERE WAS NOTHIN' THAT WE COULD DO.

YOU DIDN'T THINK IT WAS POSSIBLE,

BECAUSE YOU DON'T THINK
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

MAYBE JOHN WAS CRAZY,
BUT AT LEAST HE HAD HOPE,

HE WAS WILLING TO TRY,

AND IT KEPT HIM FROM TURNING
HIS BACK ON ME LIKE YOU DID.

IF ONE MORE PERSON HAD BEEN THERE,
MAYBE THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED.

MAYBE JOHN WOULD STILL BE ALIVE.

CHRIST...

GO ON, GET!

YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE.

WHAT DO YOU KIDS WANT, ANYWAY?

WHERE'D YOU GUYS COME FROM?

WE LIVE IN A CAMP OVER THE HILL, THAT WAY.

CAPTAIN IRON USED TO COME BY
SOMETIMES AND TELL US STORIES.

HE TOLD US ABOUT HOW HE BEAT
PROFESSOR MABIUS AND THE INFINI...

THE INFINITY MACHINE,

HOW TO TELL THE RIGHT
THING FROM THE WRONG THING,

AND HOW WE SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP.

HE TOLD US HE COULDN'T DIE EITHER, REMEMBER?

BUT HE WAS LYING.

IT WAS ALL JUST A BIG, OLD, FAT LIE.

IT'S LIKE MY DAD SAYS,

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HEROES.

THE BAD GUYS ALWAYS WIN.

CAN YOU GET THESE GUYS TO THE NEXT TOWN?

YEAH.

WHERE YOU GOIN'?

MEET ME BACK HERE TOMORROW MORNING.

I GOT UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

HELLO?

I'VE GOTTEN PRETTY GOOD AT FEELING
WHEN THERE'S SOMEONE IN THE OTHER ROOM,

SO YOU MAY AS WELL TURN THE LIGHTS ON.

YOU MUST BE ERIN.

MARCUS TOLD ME ABOUT YOU. I'M MEAGHAN.

I KNOW.

I SHOULDN'T BE HERE.

THEN WHY DID YOU COME?

WAS IT TO LOOK AT THE MONSTER FACE TO FACE,

TO CONVINCE YOURSELF THAT TELLING THE
OTHERS ABOUT ME IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO?

YEAH,

MARCUS TOLD ME THAT AS WELL.

SO ARE YOU GONNA TRY TO TALK ME OUT OF IT?

NO.

TELL YOU THE GOD'S HONEST TRUTH,
IT WOULD BE A RELIEF,

SO GO AHEAD,
ASK ME THE QUESTION YOU CAME HERE TO ASK.

WHAT QUESTION?

WHY AM I STILL HERE?

I SHOULD'VE DIED WITH THE OLD WORLD,

SO WHY AM I STILL ALIVE?

IT'S TRUE WHAT MARCUS SAID?

THE VIRUS IS STILL ALIVE INSIDE YOU.

STILL ALIVE, STILL LETHAL.

I WALK OUT THAT DOOR, AND I COULD WIPE
OUT HALF THE WORLD ALL OVER AGAIN.

OR I COULD SAVE IT.

HOW DO YOU FIGURE?

MARCUS THINKS THE VIRUS WILL COME AGAIN.

THE ONLY CHANCE WE HAVE TO BEAT THE VIRUS

IS BY UNDERSTANDING IT,
BY CREATING A VACCINE.

BUT THE VIRUS CAN ONLY BE PROPERLY
STUDIED WHILE IT'S STILL ALIVE

INSIDE A HOST BODY.

THAT'S WHERE I COME IN.

I'M A LAB SAMPLE, ERIN.

THIS IS MY PERSONAL PETRI DISH.

I'M SORRY.

I DIDN'T KNOW.

IT'S FUNNY, REALLY.

I COULD SAVE THE WHOLE DAMNED HUMAN RACE.

ALL I HAVE TO DO IS STAY ALIVE LONG ENOUGH

TO BE DISSECTED BY SOMEONE
WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE DOING.

MY DEATH COULD BE THE ONLY THING
I'VE DONE WITH MY LIFE THAT MATTERS.

I HOLD ONTO THAT, ERIN,

BECAUSE SOMETIMES IT'S THE ONLY THING

STANDING BETWEEN ME AND MADNESS...

THAT, AND MARCUS.

YOU LOVE HIM...

DON'T YOU?

YEAH.

YEAH, I DO.

I'D LOVE HIM EVEN IF HE WASN'T THE ONLY
MAN TO WALK THROUGH THAT DOOR IN 15 YEARS.

THERE ARE TIMES I THINK,

YOU KNOW, I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE.

YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT ME BEING HERE?

PUSH THAT BUTTON,

HOLD IT DOWN FOR 10 SECONDS,

TURN THE SWITCH, AND WALK AWAY.

IT'LL SLOWLY DRAW THE AIR OUT OF THE ROOM,

IT'LL GET STUFFY,

AND I'LL GO TO SLEEP,

AND IT'LL BE ALL OVER.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

AND I WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT,
BECAUSE IT WASN'T MY DECISION.

GO ON.

I WON'T HOLD IT AGAINST YOU.

ARE YOU HAPPY?

ARE YOU SATISFIED NOW?

I MEAN, THAT'S THE WAY IT WORKS, ISN'T IT?

YOU SET US UP.

YOU TAKE SOMEONE LIKE HIM,
AND YOU GIVE HIM HOPE,

JUST SO YOU CAN TAKE IT AWAY AGAIN.

WHAT DID HE EVER DO TO YOU?

WHAT DID ANY OF US EVER--EVER DO TO YOU?

WHAT DID THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD DO TO YOU

THAT WE DESERVE ALL OF THIS?

I MEAN, COME ON,

THE--THE LOCUSTS AND THE DEATH OF THE
FIRSTBORN WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU ANYMORE?

SO NOW IT'S THE DEATH OF THE ELDEST?

THE DEATH OF HEROES?

YOU KNOW WHAT?

FUCK YOU,

'CAUSE WE'RE JUST NOT GONNA
LAY DOWN AND DIE DOWN HERE.

YOU WANT TO FINISH OFF THE JOB?

COME DOWN HERE!

DO IT YOURSELF.

YOU SEND THE ANGEL OF DEATH,
YOU BETTER GIVE HIM ONE HELL OF A BIG SWORD,

'CAUSE I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.
WE ARE GONNA KICK HIS ASS

ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE
GREAT WHITE FUCKING THRONE!

AND THEN WE'RE COMIN' FOR YOU.

WE'RE COMIN' FOR YOU.

ERIN.

BEFORE WE GO IN THERE,

I WANT YOU TO KNOW ONE THING.

I HAVE ALWAYS TRUSTED YOU.

I TAUGHT YOU HOW TO THINK FOR YOURSELF.

IT WOULD BE WRONG FOR ME TO
TRY TO CHANGE YOUR MIND NOW.

SO...

WHATEVER YOU DECIDE, JUST--

THE AIR-FILTRATION SYSTEM'S DOWN 10 PERCENT.

EXCUSE ME? I'M CONCERNED

THE AIR-FILTRATION SYSTEM'S NOT
WORKING AS WELL AS IT SHOULD BE.

WE'RE AT THE BOTTOM OF A MOUNTAIN.

WE NEED ALL THE AIR WE CAN GET.

IT'S NUMBER 1 ON MY LIST OF
CONCERNS FOR THE COUNCIL.

AND NUMBER 2?

NOTHING IMPORTANT. NOTHING...

YOU NEED TO WORRY ABOUT.

YOU'RE A GOOD FRIEND, ERIN.

THEN DO US BOTH A FAVOR.

NEVER FORGET THAT AGAIN.

DON'T HOLD BACK FROM ME.

EVEN IF I THINK YOU'RE WRONG,

I'LL ALWAYS BACK YOU UP.

ALWAYS.

ALL RIGHT, GIVE HIM A BEER.
LOOK AT YOURSELF.

COME ON, PASS IT OVER.
HEY, DON'T TAKE THAT BACK.

HE'S UP THERE! COME ON!

"I AM CAPTAIN IRON!

"I WILL FIGHT INJUSTICE

"WHEREVER I MAY FIND IT.

"I WILL HELP THOSE

"WHO CANNOT...

"HELP...

"THEMSELVES.

"I AM A SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE,

"I AM A SPIRIT OF JUSTICE,

AND I WILL KICK THE ASSES
OF THE UNRIGHTEOUS!"

SO, WHO'S NEXT?

HEY,
YOU GET DONE WHAT YOU NEEDED TO GET DONE?

YEAH. YOU?

YEAH. I GOT 'EM TO THE NEXT TOWN,
ABOUT 12 MILES FROM HERE.

THEY'LL BE FINE TILL IT'S SAFE TO COME BACK.

THEY CAN COME BACK WHENEVER THEY WANT.

PROBLEM'S FIXED.

I DON'T EVEN WANNA KNOW, DO I?

YOU DON'T.

LOOK, BEFORE I TOOK OFF,
SHELLY TOLD ME TO GIVE YOU THIS.

"STRIKE ME DOWN

AND I SHALL RISE AGAIN."

COME ON.

LET'S GO.

IT WAS RIGHT HERE. YOU REMEMBER?

WHAT?

YOU ASKED ME IF ONE GUY
COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE,

COULD CHANGE THE WORLD.

YEAH, SO?

NEXT TIME, YOU OUGHT TO BE MORE CAREFUL

ABOUT THE KIND OF QUESTIONS YOU ASK.

YOU REALLY THINK THAT'S AN ANSWER?

IT'LL DO FOR NOW.
