Synopsis

While Sham is dormant, regenerating to heal injuries from the previous issue, Dr. Harden siphons energy from him and chemicals from the body of the Angela Krell clone "to create another special agent". The rest of the team investigates a featureless monolith identical to one that had recently caused a massive explosion. They are unaware that it is part of a massive extortion scheme by Landon Venture, an old friend of Lucius Krell.

Indexer Notes

Mark Evanier answers letters from Steve Schultheis and Maurice Cheval Kelly. He goes on to confirm that the forthcoming "Surge" mini-series will take place following the story in the next issue and that the Spring 1984 issue of "Different Worlds" (published by Chaosium) contains "all the info you need to play Surge" in their role-playing games. This is note-worthy, since most of Chaosium's games were fantasy/sword-and-sorcery oriented and Surge is a modern-day super-hero.
The second page ends announcing "Crossfire on sale next week!".
