(Welcome to Tranquility #1, 2) - Cosmos moved to Tranquility, a retirement community for the superheroes of yesteryear. Reporter Colette Pearson was doing a story on Tranquility, with Sheriff Lindo showing her around. Cosmos was eating at Chick’n Go when Emoticon came in looking to stir up trouble. Emoticon and his entourage started a fight with Lindo, Colonel Cragg, Bad Dog and Mr. Articulate. During the scuffle Mr. Articulate was stabbed with his own sword and died in Sheriff Lindo’s arms. Lindo said no one was leaving until they were cleared by her deputies and asked Cederic, Colette’s cameraman, to turn over the tape he’d been filming. Colonel Cragg, Bad Dog and Mayor Fury arranged for Mr. Articulate’s funeral, and then went to the Fox Hole bar to drown their sorrow in beer. Cosmos wanted to commiserate with them, and Cragg wanted to start a fight with him, calling him a traitor, but Mayor Fury made him back off. The entire community of Tranquility attended Mr. Articulate’s funeral, and Cosmos found a friend in his former ally Acolyte.
