A Scientist Rises

On a motionless summer noon in Washington Square, a gray-suited man steps onto the grass—and grows from eleven feet to forty while New York stares. His name is Dr. Edgar Wesley, and he seems to know more than he can tell the frightened crowd below.

The city wilts in the heat as traffic knots around the park and police struggle to hold back a panicked mob. Wesley keeps growing, calm and strangely kind, towering above the trees and then the buildings; when asked if anyone can help, he only shakes his enormous head. His janitor says there was a crash in Wesley’s locked laboratory—and that the doctor had been working in secret for years. What could be happening behind that broken door, and can anyone stop the giant before the city pays the price?
