It is the year 2090 A. D.

The United States ceased to exist twenty years earlier, after the Supreme Court
declared all who participate in an abortion subject to the death penalty. Six fragmentary nation-states
emerged out of the violence following from this Great Dissolution, and they are just now being forced to
contemplate a reunification.

All the six, so-called heads of state are being systematically assassinated,
and a militant religious group, the True Way, seems to be responsible. This powerful group has
never concealed its desire to forge one theocratic union
extending across the entire north American continent.
In order to avoid the chaos that threatens to break out again as a result of the assassinations,
most of the new nations are submitting to a reunion.

Hired to perform one of the remaining assassinations is one "Hitler the Cat,"
who has motives of his own to dispatch the reigning Bishop of the Republic of Southern California.
However, things do not go as planned.
Instead,
a revised scheme brings together an unlikely band of conspirators
who manage temporarily to convince the masses
throughout the world that they are witnessing the Second Coming of Christ.

But this version of Christ is not the one they expected.
Rather, this particular Christ is a drug addicted, midget of Japanese ancestry,
and his life expectancy is not overly long.

Oh well...the "Buto" never lies...!
