It might not be a Wednesday, but we thought we'd spread some Monday cheer with the first look at the very, very beginning of Silver Sweet. It opens with Tom Cobalt's POV, so without further wait, here are the first lines in Cobalt Empire #2!

Image Description:

I’m fucked.

Not like “my life is over” fucked.

I suffer from the extreme inability to quit on myself—even when people quit on me. I’m more afraid of my dream decaying into nothingness than I am of what I might do to keep it alive.

Which is why I’m on Craigslist right now.

I’m nearing embarrassing levels of desperation.
