Synopsis:

After bringing down Robert DeNitro for the Bunsen Bounty Agency Lobo looks in on the newly opened Al's Diner for a few beers and some gratious violence when he meets his old partner Jonas Glim. Then Lobo and Glim go to Bunsen's Bounty Agency where they take on an assignment to bring in Vernon Z. Qigly, the most feared, loathed, despised, and powerful accountant in the universe. What they don't know is that Qigly is under the protection of Mort Fatale and his Dead Boys.
