The Paranoian
by Ray Sproule

---

There’s a rap on Lester Netherman’s apartment door. It’s a little blue man from the planet Paranoia named Pymm. And so begins a series of misadventures culminating in a bizarre journey to a remote desert region of Nevada. There, after an encounter with a beguilingly lethal ‘sand creature’, Pymm attempts to lure Netherman back to Paranoia with him. Throughout, Netherman undergoes a rash of blackouts in which he vividly experiences three alternate identities — leading him to the ultimate personal question: ‘Who am I?'
