Review/plot:
So before she was Dagger, Tandy Bowen had a friend that wanted to be an actress, but instead she grew up to become a porn star, and then died of a drug overdose. Or i guess "grew up" is the wrong word, because she was 16 when she died. Her stage name - and i am not making this up - was Misty Meanor. I think it's more like a felony.

The news media's reaction to this is like, "Who are we to judge?".

So Cloak and Dagger locate and the porn director and i guess psychologically scar him forever (at first i thought that Cloak had killed him, but i guess that's not the case).

And then things gets judge-y.

This is the point in the story when you start to think that someone might be mind-controlled. Except this is actually the end of the story.

Why did you split this story and Sabra's if they both go at publication date? Did you just give up and decided to give each MSH story its own entry regardless?

There were some considerations around Cloak & Dagger (e.g. Dagger's blindness), which made me place this in its own entry just in case something arose in which case i'd have to split it from the Sabra story.
