Synopsis of "Midnight City Part II"
Devil shows up to a large building, which he reveals is the home of Captain Future. He walks in and meets with Future, who is reading a comic book. He comments on the book, saying that he can flip it to the start all the way to the end in a matter of seconds. Future then asks Devil how he would feel if he could do that with time. However, Future realizes why he is here, and claims he knows nothing about The Owl. Devil stares at him for a bit, before leaving, assuming Future is telling the truth. He then shows up at the home of Peggy Allen, the Woman in Red. It is revealed that she and Robert Benton (Black Terror) have gotten married. When questioned on why he's here, Devil holds up a picture of The Owl. They both say they know nothing about his death. The final person Devil meets with is Jenthro Dumont (Green Lama), who has become a buddhist priest. Dumont claims that he doesn't know anything about The Owl's murder, but hopes that Devil finds the killer. Devil is getting sick of all this, when he hears a loud gunshot. He turns and sees a man nest to Dumont has been killed. Devil runs back up and sees a man with a gun on top of a building, who is trying to get away. Devil gets on top of the building and chases after the man. He eventually manages to capture him by throwing a boomerang at his feet. He pins the man to a wall, where he claims he won't talk. However, he reveals everything he knows when Devil threatens to break his fingers. The man reveals he was hired, and he doesn't know who his boss is, but he does give Devil a name, "Belle Wayne", the side kick of the Owl. He reveals that his boss said her name, claiming that he wanted him to kill her next. After this, Devil nods as a thank you, only to the break the man's fingers and run off.

Trivia

 * Captain Future heavily implies that he knows he is a comic book character. While talking about the comic book he was reading, he looks straight at the reader, not Devil, and while talking to Devil, he watches a TV show, which appears to be his own life.
 * Captain Future is the only member (other than Devil) whose real name isn't revealed. Though it is more than likely Andrew Bryant, as that is his real name in his original comic series.
