🐺 TUFF MUNGREL — ISSUE #5
“SCENT OF THE BEAST” — Short Synopsis
Jahmeera feels different.
The streets whisper about the Wolf more every night, but Akeem quickly realizes something worse:
Someone is whispering back.
As Roots & Remedies recovers from Don Dada’s attack, a mysterious hunter named Cole begins tracking Tuff Mungrel across the city using instincts that don’t feel human. Calm, patient, and unnervingly precise, Cole follows claw marks, blood trails, and scent patterns like an animal stalking prey.
For the first time, Akeem feels what it’s like to be hunted.
Meanwhile, Tuff Mungrel continues protecting Jahmeera’s streets, brutally shutting down violent criminals under the blood moon—but every transformation pulls the beast inside him closer to the surface.
The issue ends with a chilling rooftop encounter between Akeem and Cole, where both predators silently recognize the truth:
Neither of them is fully human.
And whatever lives inside Cole…
is getting hungry.
