The story before the story: Bombshell acquired intel on an extremely dangerous item being placed for sale at the Black Market “Auction House.” She's gone low-profile (hence why she's missing her awesome hero uniform here) and successfully infiltrated the venue of the sale.
As some of you may have noticed by now all stories related to SHELL himself, with the exception of the Origin Issue, is actually told by following someone other than SHELL. I just thought it'd be fun to present a superhero story that way so that it almost kinda gives the readers a feel of never really getting too close to the man beneath the SHELL.
This approach opened up possibilities: telling a superhero story from another superhero's perspective, a supervillain's perspective, an innocent bystander's perspective, HU HQ's perspective (heh heh)…
Anyway, enough blabbing from me. Enjoy!

It's like a 'Crash' or 'Babel' of superhero comics, with Shell being the connecting factor! Sweet idea - one of those "I'm kicking myself for not thinking of it first" ideas!

Now wait a minute... the telling stories from different perspectives thing... that WAS Rashomon, wasn't it? And here that's the buyer's name? Nice, VERY nice! Oh, and personally I think sexiness is just the right balance of hiding and revealing... meaning I enjoy a dressed Bombshell just as well ;-)

That's so cool, Fuku!

Interesting idea, and I for one welcome any more crossovers you may have planned.

Nice idea

It is a very interesting storytelling technique you are using. It certainly does keep "the star" of the comic at arm's length from the reader. Very interesting indeed.
