A global communications blackout orchestrated by the villain Giger triggers alarm among the world’s super-teams. Meanwhile, the elite government-sanctioned team Youngblood launches a strike on the rogue base Liberty II to take down the techno-terrorist network known as Cybernet. On another front, in Baltimore, Brahma meets with the clandestine “Showdown” of the Four and questions his future with the team. Elsewhere, Psi-Fire’s power spirals out of control when he possesses a technician’s body. As Youngblood engages Cybernet’s forces, sentinel members Cougar, Masada, and Photon fight through waves of troops while Dutch and Sentinel hunt Giger directly. The mission exposes deeper conspiracies tied to War Dogs and sets up a broader conflict for the team.
