Summary

  Nate and Jackknife fight in mid-air in the Limelight, scaring off all the customers. Nate's psionic shields don't hold, and he starts to worry. Jackknife attacks the bystanders, so Nate distracts him with a right uppercut.

  Cole had been a low-level telepath, hearing voices in his head, so everyone thought him crazy. When Nate fought Abomination (iss. 20), Cole's mind finally broke, and he started killing everyone who came into contact with Nate.

  Nate implodes the club, tosses vehicles, and explodes gas mains, but Jackknife survives. So he wraps him in electrical cables and fries his brain. The cops arrive; Nate gives them Jackknife to help. They begin to arrest Nate, but the crowd vouches for him.
