Paradigm #12

Plot

Paradigm is a planned and outlined trip into the unknown, charting the final generation of mankind brought about by one individual's life-style choice. Paradigm is a soap opera following the every-day and not-so-every-day individuals of Bogsdale as they attempt to understand, cope with, manipulate, or just plain fight the enforced evolution. This issue: As college campus riots tear apart the city of Bogsdale, Dick contacts Rusty as to the whereabouts of the missing journal pages, Ethan decides to throw a party, and Nick and Zeke complete the tests of the under-city that will grant them access to the city of Bogsdale's history. Closing out the first year of publication, this issue ties up the themes of year one and sets the stage for the magic, wonderment, fear and endless pop-culture references that year two will provide. And we finally discover what the repeated page in issue #7 was really all about.
