Steve Dillon illustrates this issue's lead story. Welcome to Steeple, a rocky, barren planet devoid of life, save for a small colony devoted to peace and prayer, and home to former Legionnaire Karate Kid - who over the past year has continued his own spiritual journey. Unfortunately, his road to self-discovery becomes extremely bumpy when a friend falls at the hands of a dangerous escapee from prison-planet Takron-Galtos. The backup story focuses on U.P. President Leland McCauley's bodyguards, the Oversight Watch.
