Buy a Bullet

Buy a Bullet is a quick and entertaining glimpse into the Orphan X universe. In this short story, Evan Smoak rescues a woman from her abusive Silicon Valley millionaire boyfriend. The setup is classic: a over-the-top antagonist paired with a flawless, justice-driven hero archetype. While the antagonist's one-dimensionality might make you roll your eyes, it also sets the stage for Evan's ruthlessly satisfying takedown. The story feels like a distilled revenge fantasy—simple, absurd, and undeniably fun. If you enjoy action sequences where justice is swift and decisive, this delivers exactly that.

At just a few pages long, Buy a Bullet doesn't have enough meat so rating 3-stars, but it's still an entertaining diversion for fans of the series. Think of it as a quick dose of Orphan X's signature style: efficient, sharp, and to the point. Pure popcorn.
