Chapter 106 - Part 8. Comics.

September 15th, 1979. 17:25:14.

Facing the TV whilst sitting on the couch with Laurie, Ezekiel read through the latest Comic in hand of the hero known as Green Lantern. Reading these days the new comics, he realized the persona who he previously read about changed as their origin became similar, their powers too, except the entire world seemed to have restarted. Though there are some characters such as this Green Lantern, who became completely different, or the Flash.

Laurie: "Uncle, why are you always reading Comics?" she asked suddenly, as series had ended and was observing him with the Comic.

Looking at his right side, Ezekiel closed the Comic as he showed her the front page where the hero could be seen with the villain as they fought each other. "Tell me, Laurie, what if I told you, everything in this Comic is real?" he asked her.

Laurie: "Hmm, they can't be real" she said, denying, "after all, they are drawn by someone" while taking the Comic from his hands.

Ezekiel: "I see…and, what if I told you, we are also a Comic?".

Shifting her gaze to him, she looked pensive and spoke after a brief silence, "I don't know" she paused before continuing, "if as uncle says is, that would mean everything we do is already written, I don't like that" she said unappeased of such feeling.

Ezekiel: "Who knows, maybe we are the creators of the person who is writing us? Maybe we tell the tale to be written, and he just doesn't know it, yet" he explained to her as these wonders are something he hasn't faced yet. After all, there exist infinitesimal possibilities of what might be the reality of the situation and could be unknown to both parties.

Laurie: "Well, I don't know" she said finishing the conversation as she wasn't interested in the topic…

Reading through the new Comic released not very long ago, Ezekiel sat on the bench of the park as the birds surrounding him fed on the bread he gave to feast upon. Currently, he isn't in Los Angeles, as ever since returning back from the future, the technology upgrade for [Blind Spot] facilitated his problems to a minimum only needing to wait till the day Jon re-appears and communicate with him, and possibly also see a new perspective of the Universe.

Putting aside the Comic, he saw the boy walk to the bench as he sat beside him, "So, how have you been Walter?".

Walter Kovacs turned to look at him, "Fine, sir, thank you for asking. Has everything with you been alright?" he asked, unknown to him showing the difference both have from his future and present self with the slight tick which he would receive in the news, causing the pieces to fall and Rorschach to surface.

Ezekiel: "Yes" he answered as both descended on a long silence.

Finally, Walter asked what has been bugging him for a long time, "Sir, are you really my uncle?" as he couldn't compare any looks this person had with his family, after all, no one except him was this good looking.

Ezekiel: "Well, not biological, but a comrade-in-arms" he said, shifting the topic, "tell me, Walter. Do you think heroes are important?".

Walter pondered for some seconds, "I don't know, I mean they fight to stop crime and help a lot of people, so, yes, they are" he said as he thought of the news he read around.

Ezekiel: "And, what if I told you…the existence of heroes is the reason the crime rate rose so high?" he asked as he put the Comic inside the coat and looked at the time within his watch.

Walter: "Eh, ah…I don't know" he said, "I think evil has always been there, just the heroes brought it out".

Ezekiel: "I see…". Seconds of silence, he continued, "do you enjoy your current work?".

Walter: "…It's okay, just have to make female clothes all the time" he said, showing that although fine with the job, not extremely pleased with it.

Ezekiel: "Is that so. Do you want to come to Los Angeles? I will introduce you to a better job" asked looking at him.

Walter: "No, here it's fine" as he denied the offer.

Ezekiel: "You should go back to work, your work time has begun" he said getting up, "I will be leaving, but will come to visit you sometimes".

Walter: "Oh, well, take care".

Ezekiel: "Yes, you too" he said whilst turning around and leaving…

Sitting on a table for two inside 'The Bestiary' bar within the Gila Test Base, Ezekiel looked at the people around as they ate their meals whilst he read another Comic he bought recently. Though not quiet, nor with lack of people as previously, he didn't mind as he was confirmed of Dr. Manhattan's existence. After all, the whispers of every one, whose face show they haven't got to sleep peacefully, that there is a ghost lurking around since Jon's death.

Suddenly the entire bar started vibrating, as the tableware of those who ate clashed with each other, spilling the food everywhere and electric currents ran through the conductive materials, most of them metal which caused them to join as if magnets when suddenly, a bright light enough to cause sunburn to everyone around appeared on the center of where once everyone sat eating.

Gasping voices echoed through the almost silent bar, as everyone tried to observe the entity floating there as they used their hands to stop the bright light whilst observed with eyes and mouth open wide. A tall human figure, with a blue florescent colored body, no body hair, white eyes showing no changes in emotions and completely nȧkėd in everyone's sight.

Janey: "Jon…is that you?" asked as she felt that man's features reassembled of his, apart from the completely different body.

Jon looked towards Janey as he floated down and landed slowly,

Jon looked towards Janey as he floated down, and landed slowly, "Yes, Janey…it is me" he said slowly while landing on the floor. Observing how now one could get closer to him, Jon seemed to realize as he changed his body's composition and the heat disappeared without a second passed.

Feeling the heat disappear, Janey ran up to her lover as the thousands of questions she held within her thoughts were left behind for another situation and just concentrated on him now returning back to her. "Oh Jon, I missed you so much…" she cried out while hugging him whilst Jon comforted her.

Having observed the 'God', Ezekiel took out the remote from his coat as he pressed the sole buŧŧon on it and once again placed it within his coat. Due to his action, the remote sent signal as all the devices which orbited the planet, or those which rested within the cities globally started activating as the Tachyons around the world would within a minute or so stir up, causing…if what he knows about him correctly…to disconnect from seeing 'Time' as one.
