Splash page. Baroness Blood is surrounded by Baron Gestapo’s forces. BB has a defiant look on her face.
Caption: Special Agent Griffin Reins reporting in. I have completed initial surveillance on group known as “Der Nachtmenschen.” Here is what I have discovered.
Caption 2: The leader of the group is a female referred to as “Baroness Blood.” She does indeed seem to be descended from European royalty. Rumors have her as a distant relation to the infamous Countess Bathory. Nothing that can be confirmed, of course.
Caption 3: What we do know is that she was once the leader of a rogue squadron of female aviators. These girls gave the Huns fits until Gestapo’s men finally took them down. The Baroness was experimented on in the labs. The fates of the others remain unknown.

Nearby, another group of soldiers has a young Jewish girl surrounded. The girl wears a shabby dress. She does not seem to be afraid.

Several fleeing soldiers happen upon a twenty something young man, very nicely dressed.
Caption: “Erich Van Doorn was a German soldier. He did not appear to be a member of the Nazi party. Apparently he was turned in for being “weak” after refusing to shoot unarmed prisoners. Reportedly, he also spent too much time in the wrong type of bars for his superiors’ liking.”

Soldiers: “Fool! Get out of the way! Ze monster is coming!”
Panel 3
