The Victorian - Act I: Self Realization

An urban myth, a voodoo incarnation, a mass hallucination, or the Angel of Doom? All of them a manifestation of pre-millennial anxiety. The Victorian seems to have become all things to all people, but whatever he is, he's the catalyst who will bring the stories of many fractured lives crashing together.

As we enter a new millennium, why should we look back a hundred years to hear from a superhero created by a secret society from the Victorian era? Because this character holds the key to the "Fin de Siecle" and possesses masterful insight for understanding the new age.
