The Hero Business Part 11

Potboiler is an old term for pulpy paperback genre writing riding to the rescue.

Let’s do the intro.

Everyone sees Eric in a different light. They see his shortcomings more often than his virtues.

As his profile expands and evolves with his growing celebrity, the effects and affectations land differently with his growing circle of care and support and publicity.

Meanwhile, Todd remains convinced that there is more to the events that put him on this stage.

Welcome to The Potboiler, I’m Patrick Hughes and this is Hollow Grim and The Bitter End, part three.

Potboiler is an old term for pulpy paperback genre writing that’s just the right amount of bitter, to make you appreciate the sweet.

Let’s do the intro.

The night started with the rumbling thunder of a storm approaching from the west.

Young Hollow Grim watches his legendary lawman father, Marshall Charlie Grim, stand in front of Worm Worthington and his men, with a lucrative offer he can only refuse, and with Dent Cranley to his right with an uncertain allegiance.

It is starting to become obvious that this stand off offers no peaceful conclusion. Hollow and Doc watch with relative helplessness as the rain rolls in and the Marshal remains outnumbered and unwilling to back down.

The end is bitter, the story is sweeter.

In Hollow Grim’s youth, his father US Marshal Charlie Grim was known as the man that brought law and Justice to Nevada. He is known across the west as fair, fierce, and an unmatched skill for measuring the man that stands in his path.

With his celebrity would always come a challenge. With challenge comes conflict, with victory comes vendetta and growing list of names riding for your door.

On one particular night, Progress Township in rides an old opponent of Charlie’s, after an old score he seeks to settle. He intends to write this kind of night a new kind of story.

Charlie Grim stands on his road as he always does.

To the bitter end. May it remind us the story was sweeter.
