After his encounter with Jim Harper, before the Guardian returned to Metropolis, Jimmy Olsen has continued to dig up whatever he can on Project 7734. Unfortunately, that's been very little. He's certain he's under surveillance though. He finds someone online though, who seems to know more, mentioning a 'Project Breach'.

Convincing his source to meet, he arrives to find the source's house in flames. Codename: Assassin has struck fast. But Drew didn't do a thorough enough job. His target survives long enough to tell Jimmy how to contact someone who knows more.
