THE GHOST OF CHRIS ROOK

 


The Ghost of Chris Rook

CHRIS ROOK was a local citizen of GRIMM, INDIANA who was known for being the lead singer of the band/gang called FORCEFED who fought against the local racist Klan that controlled the politics of the city. With a nonchalant attitude and penchant for finding trouble where most don't, Chris found himself in a romantic relationship with SNOW WHITNEY for a short time before losing touch with her. Years later, Chris found himself along with his friends being hunted down and murdered in Grimm. While investigating the deaths of his friends he reconnected with Snow while Surge was in the hospital after being ambushed by the Klan. During this time, GOD and THE DEVIL went to war in Grimm and Chris was killed in the mayhem protecting Snow, having a telephone pole impale him through the stomach (*see Grimm, Indiana #4.)


Upon dying Chris found himself as a ghost, lost and wandering. During the white flash soul-slip at the Chicago ComicCon when SURGE was transported to the world of DRAGONDARK (*see Grimm, Indiana: Reality's Edge), the ghost of Chris Rook and his soul found a home within the soulless Surge who was created from pure imagination and the magical book of the Grimmoire. Surge, being an anomaly without a soul, easily accepted the soul of Chris, allowing for Chris to continue to live on within the body of Surge.

When Surge became Chris Rook, he took on all the memories and mannerisms of Chris yet still retained his own given to him by his creator, The Artist. Now one and the same, Surge proudly goes by the name Chris, much to the delight of Snow Whitney.
