Plot Overview

Azal rides electric currents and incinerates his victims. Previously he was limited to lightning storms, but as a lab assistant to Michael Faraday he contributed to the use of electricity in technology and later profited enormously from the electrification of civilization.

Robert Kilroy-Silk: A controversial British politician and former presenter of his daytime confessional talkshow Kilroy.

Jude: Who needs to watch dead bodies when Robert Kilroy-Silk is on?

Michael Faraday: A 19th century English physicist who contributed significantly to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry, and one of the greatest experimentalists in the history of science.

Strange: I saw a picture today of Faraday, accompanied by the lab assistant who helped him discover electrical charge.

Jude: Couldn't he just go through walls?
Strange: I said he was a demon, not Harry bloody Houdini.
Jude: What, can't they do that?
Strange: You're thinking of ghosts.
Jude: Well, perhaps this is a ghost.
Strange: There is no such things as ghosts—what sort of scientist are you?
