Longshot #3
In "Just Let Me Die," Longshot faces a pivotal moment when a desperate man’s final act forces him to confront his own past and make a reckless choice. Written by Ann Nocenti and brought to life with dynamic art by Arthur Adams—whose cover captures the issue’s raw intensity—this story sees Longshot dive into Con Edison’s heart, where flickering lights spark forgotten memories and a city plunges into darkness. As allies turn to enemies and a portal opens to another world, Longshot stands alone, the weight of choices he can’t undo pressing down.
