another page. “Are you familiar with the details of the Doctor
Maleficus case through the news media or other means, not excluding
so-called 'comic books'?”
“Well, not through the
news, no…”
The officer peered over
the top of his glasses. “You've dithered over every question,
Mr. Grove. Jury duty is a civic responsibility, not something
to be weaseled out of at every opportunity.”
“Right, yes. Of
course.” Thomas Grove, a.k.a. Thunderbolt, tugged at his collar.
“I'm sorry.” He tried not to wriggle too much; he knew he
shouldn't have worn his costume under his suit today.
