Years later, Chris Cwej and Roz Forrester arrive in Megacity, capital of Megarra, looking for a serial killer that dissects its victims and takes their identities and money. Garshak, a mentally augmented and supremely intelligent Ogron, brings them in for questioning as the head of police but releases them to continue their investigation, as the killer could well target the crime lords of the corrupt city. Gorsk, a Sontaran intelligence officer, identifies Chris and Roz in a hit on the police station, and marks them for death. The two Adjudicators track the “Ripper” to a nightclub, but cannot prevent it from killing and dissecting the nightclub’s owner, although they do manage to interrupt it before it can take on the identity of the victim, and wound the killer when it attempts to escape. A pack of Wolverine assassins hired by Gorsk ambush Chris and Roz as they chase the killer, but Garshak and his force save them in the nick of time. By this point, The Ripper has already left the planet for Space Station Alpha under his old identity, but Chris and Roz are persuaded to follow. Gorsk reports to Sontaran High Command on their battle station, the War Wheel and kills the Wolverine leader for his failure. Gorsk is then slaughtered by the remaining Wolverines out of revenge. | Years later, Chris Cwej and Roz Forrester arrive in Megacity, capital of Megarra, looking for a serial killer that dissects its victims and takes their identities and money.
