Midwestern Odyssey

Zing the Queen of Quick has decided to leave Chicago and go somewhere there aren’t any super-heroes. But it’s not as simple as she thought it would be. As she makes her way through the Midwest toward Las Vegas, Aleny Huong takes a slight detour to a town in the Rocky Mountains, where she meets a handsome mechanic named Wayland Steele, and she is smitten. But when Zing the Queen of Quick attempts a few local robberies under a new super-villain identity, she has no idea that the town has a super-hero of its own! What will she do when she discovers this mystery-man’s true identity? Introducing the awesome Night Sentry!
