I agree, unlike the Conchita ad (it had just one song with the full novel's name) we don't even know if these will be two separate releases, some kind of bundle, or something else entirely atm. I feel like waiting a few months and see what comes up on twitter about it. If there's a Q and A like the last one, we might at least understand how exactly they're planning to release them, then move on from there.

To bring up JoC again, there's the Bogaerts character who I think was a former subordinate to Scherzer. Scherzer seems to be a celebrity himself and had "mimicked the Venomania Event" by kidnapping some famous women and putting them in the basement of his mansion (located in the sub-urbs).

Based on the overall flow of the comic and extremely rough translations, Scherzer seemed to expect he would be judged innocent, much to everyone's dismay. However, Bogaerts was somehow the more profitable option for Gallerian to side with (he's related to one of the women, I think) so he ruled him guilty for charges of kidnapping women (either 13 charges or 13 women). Since Scherzer is gagged, Gallerian meets with him the day before his execution to explain to him why he made his judgement (and leaves saying, "See ya in Hell" after telling him he would be executed).

Seems to be an inconsequential side story with a reference to Venomania tied in there.
