Taking responsibility for these events, Vass resigns. That virus, as is very soon revealed, is the chaos bug, designed to spread rapidly and kill anyone it infects. The Chaos Bug has been released and the weakened Justice Department is finding it increasingly difficult to remain in control. Thanks for telling us about the problem. Show now. Not the story, which gets better and better as you go How much worse can it get for Mega- City One?

The natural form of the disease is not usually fatal, but Yurges's creation kills 98 to 99 per cent of those infected, within four days of exposure, during which they descend into murderous psychosis and become uncontrollably violent. There is no footling around with romantic sub-plots or children in peril or ma and pa threatened - the kind of stuff that Hollywood uses to humanize the threat.
