Issue Summary
Cerebus is annoyed by Lord Storm'send, and orders Bear, his bodyguard, to throw the old man out. Cerebus gets his cold and blazing sneezes back. Just when Cerebus is getting down to sleep, Lord Julius and Duke Leonardi, who works as Lord Julius' Like-A-Look, show up. Lord Julius plays "this little piggy" with Cerebus' toes. Bear decides it just isn't worth it, and quits, leaving Cerebus stuck in a wall.
