THE PUNCHLINE IS STILL COMING.

KNOWN AS · Rooftop Bubble

“GLOWS. DOESN'T BEHAVE.”

He always leaves before anyone in the Narrows can thank him. Nobody in the Narrows has asked twice.

Mad LAD #1382
THE ONE THEY'RE ALL TALKING ABOUT

AS TOLD IN THE BAR · a nurse at the Undercroft infirmary

“Everybody in here has a story about Rooftop Bubble. Mine's the true one. He pulled his first prank on the Lantern Bureau at age six, and they still haven't found the goose. He treats small talk as a hostile act.”

THE GOOD PART

“Here's the bit nobody believes. The first person he helped in the Narrows chased him two streets to say thank you. He ducked into a laundry, waited among the steam, and left by the back.”
