Prologue

John Corben raced through the streets of Metropolis, $52,000,000 in the trunk. The police were chasing him, trying to shoot at Corben's tires. Corben tried turning random corners, but the police stayed on his tail. Eventually, Corben turned onto a suspension bridge. He saw some police cars coming from the other side of the bridge. He was almost caught. He turned to try to get away from them.

He turned in the wrong direction.

Corben drove off the edge of the bridge and fell into the river. The car sank and filled with water. Corben tried to unbuckle himself, but he couldn't hold his breath long enough. Eventually, he passed out.


Corben woke up in an abandoned warehouse. There was a man dressed in black next to him.

"Hello, Mr. Corben.", said the man. "I have a proposition for you."
