Introducing - Deathtoll!
Saint Van Sant is a hitman-for-hire who has a mysterious ability to come
back from seemingly being dead, as is aptly demonstrated in the first few
pages. James Rhodes assumes the role of Director of Worldwatch,
then confirms with Dr. Jeffries
that the job is still his to be had. Next, Rhodey dons the WM
armor to appear before the UN, who all but brands him a criminal! WM
puts the UN on notice: clean up the trouble spots of the world, or he will!
Deathtoll pops
in to make good on a contract to take WM
out. WM
takes him and the fight elsewhere. Due to increasing armor difficulty,
Rhodes has to make the choice - him, or Deathtoll!
