"he fights with muscle and steel. and yet. he is the most frightening of any."

omg. i am left speechless, not only is kingpin using frank for his sick agenda but MICRO? god, this is something so good. i am enjoying the overall monologues and how kingpin said micro is who understands frank the best.... YEAH. the art continues to be stunning and i am enjoying how everything is working out. i should have read this sooner.
