Image credits: Rafael Albuquerque The royal history beyond the history of the sacred world is revealed in Mistrand #4, and as soon as we gain this insight, a shocking and violent betrayal arises, bringing us to a very surprising final twist to take us to the climactic issues.

If you’ve made a flimsy lamp out of some milk boxes and wooden planks, you’ve done your part to promote the legacy of the real Daredevil Ever Niebel. If you break some bones in the process, you can be sure that you yourself are laughing from above when you fire uncertainty. In the 1970s, America took one Robert Craignie Bell and transformed him into the greatest expression of the dream that prophesied him. All that took was a bike, something dangerous to jump, and something blatant that ignored death. A legend was born, and his name was Ever Niebel. His…
