Matthew: Thanks for the invitation. I'm in Los Angeles, just got off the time machine. Feeling great, getting ready to draw my gun. Free America, shooting every day. Matthew, an undercover LAPD officer, sacrifices himself and travels to a parallel America, becoming an LAPD trainee patrolman, bound to the Punisher System, bringing a jolt of justice to the free-spirited America, helping the people of 2003 Los Angeles recall the dashing style of the Western era's most ruthless gunslingers.

My name is Leo Wallace, a PhD student in history, and I'm $137,542.89 in debt. In the darkest moment of my life, I lost my job because I criticized a tech giant called "Omni" online, and they "optimized" my employment. I thought my life was going to be a classic Chinese comedy, until an intruder popped into my head. He said his name was Franklin Roosevelt—yes, the one on the 10-cent coin. "Kid, stop criticizing online, it's useless." "Want to mess with them? I'll teach you." "Our first step is to become mayor." And so, I, a keyboard warrior who couldn't even find a job, embarked on a magical path to running for president under his guidance.
