Comic book with no dialogue or narration.
Executioner finds the number 73304-23-4153-6-96-8 written on a small slip of paper on the floor after a prisoner is electrocuted. He pockets the paper and, starting the next morning, sees the numbers repeating in sequence. The numbers lead him to a gal, a gambling windfall, and sex. He awakes the next morning with the woman and money gone and himself in, apparently, a different dimension. His neighborhood has gone to seed, his apartment is an abandoned drug den, the woman's phone number is now a pawn shop number.
Executioner follows a trail leading back to the pawnshop owner's house and a conviction that the pawn shop owner and his fat wife are the cause of his trouble. Kills pawn shop owner and fat lady, ends up being executed and leaves the same numbered slip of paper on the floor at his own death.
