(December 2001) "Book 1: Chapter 9." Story: Chuck Austen. Art: Chuck Austen, Wild and Wooly Press and NIC Entertainment. Layout: Victor Lopez. 

 Fury wants MODOK to tag along for the next mission! Dugan gets a new suit! Rhodey declares everyone nuts! In this issue, we learn the motivation behind the new leadership of AIM. AIM wants to see everyone else dead - and the method is chilling! Really excellent (if frightening) idea on Austen's part. Next - Darkhawk's coming out to play! Aw, yeah! Unfortunately, DH is dangerously insane. More unfortunately, Rhodes still brings him along? Very cool that DH is in the book and is a part, but to actually have him along on a mission?

TJ's Recommendation: USWM patches!

Hube's Response: Indeed, the true AIM master plan is revealed and is truly appalling, although the "clone/one mind" bit gets a tad mind-boggling after a while. Weird and wild "activation" of Darkhawk, and a mysterious video chat between an armored Rhodey and an obscured man means we're heading into some big action!

Hube's Recommendation: 3 and 1/2 USWM patches!
