Issue #1

 * It hurts. Night City hurts. The suffering runs deep and the deeper one falls, the longer the self-prescribed dreams play. Fortune, hope, love--all made possible by DMS technology. But not everyone desires a happy ending. A braindance repairman discovers the answer to pain . . . comes in a blackout.

Issue #2

 * Arturos [sic] heist scheme is set in motion--all he needs is a team--a trusted cyberpunk, the best driver in Night City, and an unlikely ally within one of the citys [sic] most corrupt institutions. Choices have consequences, but this time, the choice is his.

Issue #3

 * Change is finally within Arturos [sic] reach, but one wrong move could ruin the heist and two wrong moves could shatter all hope of a new future. For every action, there is a reaction--and regret might be his last.

Issue #4

 * To submit to weakness or to defeat it--Arturo finds that giving in might just be the key to breaking the cycle. And if second chances exist--life can be worth choosing.
