And what will these transformations mean for Alex and Simon? Will these changes lead them to become heroes - or villains? Meanwhile, Croyd Crenson has been framed for the murder of a nurse, and forced to escape the police and go into hiding so he can figure out who framed him. But Crenson's a marked man, and the citizens of Jokertown aren't going to let him wander around without a fight!
