As the nation is torn apart, someone is murdering all the patriotic heroes.
A mysterious amnesiac awakens in a sealed underground base, naked and abandoned. This John Doe emerges to the year 2052, where the entire Project Superpowers Universe has been turned on its head. The United States is no more, ravaged by environmental disaster, and fragmented into warring regions. The Black Terror is now many - revolutionaries trying to save the republic. But who IS John Doe? Why can't he remember anything? And does his presence in this brave new world bring its salvation...or its doom?
This is a great opening chapter and at the same time it is a great jumping on point for readers that are not familiar with the Project Superpower universe. It creates suspense and mystery as the reader is trying to find out what is going on. Read Full Review

Interesting beginning, hopefully the back story is expanded upon for newer readers to the series, such as myself. Enjoyed the art style and ready for the next issue.
