Added "Little Useless Gun," expanded "Trademark Favorite Food," some minor tweaks


* LittleUselessGun: In issue #9, Vivek's manservant gives Simeon a [[http://www.taurususa.com/whats-new-the-curve.cfm Taurus Curve]], one of the smallest guns available on the market, as soon as he gets off the plane in NYC. Simeon notes the weapon's limitations:
-->'''Simeon:''' I'm going to want something with more stopping power soon if your situation's already at the point where I need to be armed to walk to the fucking car.



* NiceJobBreakingItHero: A variation -- this is what ''starts'' the whole plot of ''Injection''.

* PlotTailoredToTheParty: Invoked; the Injection engineered a possession for Maria, a murder for Vivek, and an "alien" for Brigid. Warren Ellis has stated that; "All of the INJECTION volumes are takes on classic British weird fictions. Vol 1 was Quatermass, Vol 2 was Holmes, Vol 3 is Doctor Who. I felt like taking a tour of the old terrains. So Vol 4 is Bond. Vol 5 can possibly be characterized as Carnacki." Each volume has spanned five issues and Ellis plans for roughly 30, so the final volume will be something that requires ''all'' their talents.

However, the ones they end up ''getting'' [[RunningGag almost always turn out to be terrible]] -- or, in the case of those prepared by Headland's personal chef, made from [[ForeignQueasine bizarre-but-apparently-edible ingredients]].

* CoolGuns: Simeon can has them. He uses a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSS_silent_pistol PSS]] for an assassination mission in issue #2, and in issue #9, Vivek gives him a [[http://www.taurususa.com/whats-new-the-curve.cfm Taurus Curve]]. Although he does note the weapon's limitations:
