"Life is so fragile, you know? No one is too big to avoid catastrophe, no one too successful or rich. Anyone can be hacked to pieces by external factors. Anyone can be felled by personal failings. Existence is delicate china positioned around the raging bulls of inevitability and consequence. And there's not a thing we can do about any of it."

The Mongolian Death Worm can't find work.

"It's been over a year since I got laid off, and the unemployment benefits are about to dry up. The thing about my situation is, auto sales is the only thing I know. Thirty-five years I've sold cars. I don't have a degree, so what the fuck am I supposed to do? No one is buying cars. I guess I could go back to school, but I'm too old. And the wife can barely support us as it is. I just want to work, you know? I want to go back to making a living. I have to do right by my family. I need purpose. I've got no purpose."

Wolfman has body-image issues.
Malaise for the Montauk Monster

"Do you have any idea what a struggle it is to get out of bed every morning? It literally saps all my energy. When I get to work, I spend a good two hours just staring at a gray wall, and no one even notices. Where did my passions go? I used to draw, you know. Really well, too. I won awards for my sketches of people on the subway. Now, I'm stuck in this crude cycle of mindless working, laborious drinking, and intermittent sleep. I'm starting to fear I'll never break out of it, that I'm going to die alone and unfulfilled and forgotten."

Zombie Nazi has daddy issues.

"My dad doesn't respect what I do. Sure, I'm not in oil and gas, but I'm making a living. But then, nothing has ever been good enough for him. No girl I ever dated was pretty enough and he even hates my wife. I say 'hates' because he refused to attend our wedding. I would like nothing more for him to just be proud of me. Just once."

Cyclops is haunted by an unfortunate accident.

"I was driving home from work last night when I got distracted changing the radio station. Next thing I know, there's a loud noise and the car jumps, like when you hit a speed bump going too fast. I look in the rearview, and a chocolate lab is lying motionless in the middle of the street. I was devastated. I got out of the car to see if I could help the dog...but it was gone. And then I had to explain to the little girl who showed up that I killed her dog. The look on her face is something that will haunt me for the rest of my life."
