Longshot TB

Collecting Longshot #1 to 6 (September 1985 to February 1986). ------------‐------------------------------------ Part 1: A Man Without a Past On another world, an amnesiac young man flees for his life, hunted by several monsters. He comes across a dimensional portal and enters. The others follow, but, unlike him, they are stuck in-between. The young man ends up in New York, where he saves a woman's life with his unnatural luck. Fleeing from the cops, he befriends a survivalist named Eliot. Reading about a kidnapping in the newspaper, the young man and Eliot visit the child's mother. The stranger 'reads' a doll the kidnappers left and leads Eliot and Hester to a strange mill, where the monsters who had followed him now intend to sacrifice the child to create a way back. Using his luck, the stranger saves the child, learning along the way that his luck is dependent on the pureness of the motives. He is assisted in his struggle by a strange little critter, who is actually part of the demon hunters. Before he leaves Hester and Eliot, Eliot christens him Longshot. The young man walks off with the critter, not quite sure whether he can trust him. ======================== Part 2: I'll Wave to You from the Top Longshot and Pup jump onto a running train, unaware that they are destroying a film scene. Longshot notices that Pup has changed physically, but the creature disappears when Longshot is distracted by the stuntwoman, Riccochet Rita, who is to bring Longshot to the director, 'Hitch.' Impressed by Longshot's moves, Hitch offers him a job as a stuntman. In spite of his feelings that being an actor is a shameful job, Longshot accepts, remembering Eliot's advice that he should make money quickly. He quickly befriends Rita, who, like him, is an action junkie. During a flight stunt, he has a vague memory of having been both an actor and a slave. The night before a very dangerous stunt, Rita kisses him but runs away when she realizes that he probably isn't human. Moments later
