Meanwhile, Letter.Man called up to the booth, "Hal?  What do we do now?  Our 
first guest has gone to lim.bo and the audience went all over the damn place!  
Go to commercial?  Okay, kids, we'll be right back as soon as we figure out how
to kill about 10 minutes."

     During the commercial, Time Crapper used his powers to retcon himself back
into existence and make his scheduled appearance, where Letter.Man talked to 
him about the new 15-cover one-shot (no pages, just 15 covers stapled together)
with J'Mage comics, but this is all exposition.  Back to the story, such as it 
is.

hero-on-hero fight."  Sitting down, D"D"D used a lesser power of his dial to 
dial up some Pizza Hut pizza, and began to scarf it up, hidden in a small grad 
student office in a Major Midwestern University (yes, the same one Acton Lord 
is hiding out in, but different building).

     Meanwhile, prolonged exposure to the energies of alt.cyberpunk.chatsubo 
had once again mutated Sig Lad into Cybersig!  Using the awesome and 
scientifically impossible netrunning/matrixhacking techniques endemic to 
cyberpunk stories, he netted over to the alt.config area and waited for 
alt.comics.lnh to show up at OSU while spending the time trying to unmutate.
