Character History
The Eclipse, Part 1
Hiro and Ando travel to Sam's Comics in search of the newest issue of 9th Wonders!, trying to figure out what to do next. Sam calls Frack over and they are both surprised, as they look at the new issue and see themselves on the cover, looking at the same exact issue, with Hiro and Ando standing in the background.
The Eclipse, Part 2
Sam accuses Frack of playing a practical joke, but Frack insists that he is not. As Hiro struggles with what he has learned about his life, locked in the bathroom, Sam delivers an inspiring pep talk about what it takes to be a true hero, and how much what he does means to everyone. Hiro finally exits the bathroom and subsequently teleports away on his next mission. Sam then tells Ando & Matt about a story he heard, regarding a sketchbook belonging to Isaac Mendez. Apparently, it was given to a bike messenger just before his death. The sketchbook supposedly contains the framework for the final issue of 9th Wonders!. He suggests that, to find the issue, they should seek out the messenger.
