    "Nothing is Impossible, Man!"
BY:    Jim Valentino / Ron Lim, Tom Christopher.
PC:    Silver Surfer, Impossible Man, Capt. Glaktu.
COM:    1st appearance of the Ergons.  The Surfer literally runs into Imp who decides it's his current life's duty to lighten the Surfer up a bit.  After changing into form after form, including Dr. Strange, Galactus and Marilyn Monroe, the pair are confronted by the Ergonian fleet who had been pursuing the Imp for a minor misunderstanding involving their queen.  The Surfer won't allow them to kill the Imp, but the aliens shoot first and ask questions later.  The Surfer easily disables all of their ships and sends them home in disgrace.  He then reprimands the Imp, but when it goes in one ear and out the other, he flies away in anger.  He returns disguised as one of the Ergons with a large gun, scaring the socks off the Imp and making him promise to not do any more mischief.  He flies off thinking he's actually taught the Imp a lesson, but at story end, it's revealed that he had his fingers crossed all the time.   Cover by Ron Lim, Jim Valentino, and Joe Rubinstein.

COM:    Drax resurrected.  Thanos has undertaken to destroy half the population in the universe in order to save all life, and he takes Surfer on a tour, using his Teleportation Module to show him the veracity of his mission.  He brings him to Earth to show him the overcrowding situation and into its future to show the result.  Then he brings him to Salaria to show him what overpopulation will do to even a gentle primitive planet and its people.   When Surfer refuses to help him in his crusade, Thanos informs him that the visit to the primitive planet carried with it a bacterium that has wiped out half of its population and sends him off to save the other half while he goes about his business.  This dastardly act alerts Chronos that Thanos is alive again, and Surfer, after charging a young Salarian with a universal antibody pledges to stop the mad Titan.  At story end, Chronos resurrects Drax.   Signed cover by Ron and Tom.

PC:    Silver Surfer, Mentor, Eros, Drax the Destroyer, Death, Human Torch II, ~ Thanos.
COM:    Surfer tries to follow Thanos' trail but he keeps loosing the thread of his Teleportation Module, so he goes to see Mentor for help and hopefully answers.  Mentor retells Thanos' origin when they are interrupted by the arrival of Eros, who was put through the door by Drax.  It is deduced that in his new incarnation, the Destroyer has increased size but diminished mental capacity, and he attaches himself onto Surfer as his best bet to find Thanos.  Surfer can't shake him, running him through an asteroid than a sun, then gets smart.  He takes him to Earth and the Baxter Building, placing him in front of an information machine (TV), and, when the Destroyer's mind goes numb enough after hours of watching old series, he disappears back into space pretty pleased with himself at story end.  Signed cover by Ron and Tom.

COM:    1st mention of Tomorrow Townhouses and Project: Earth.  Genetech has hired the Thinker and Primus to gather DNA samples from the Warriors, and he starts with Nita.  Robbie's mother has decided to go to Brazil to join Project: Earth, despite her husband's misgivings, and then he runs afoul of Thinker.  Dwayne catches up with Sil, but their reunion is interrupted by Primus.  Rick, after clashing with his dad, cancels his membership at his gym before running afoul of the pair.  Angel is approached on the schoolyard by the two (1st mention of Yassif?), and Vance, after telekinetically putting his foot down with his overbearing dad, is lured to the site of the teams first meeting.  At the future location of Tomorrow Townhouses, the Thinker tries to explain to them what's going on, but Thrasher's temper gets the best of him and he takes the Thinker's head off, revealing him to be a robot.  After Primus has calmed down, the Thinker tells them that they have some hard decisions to make about their future.  And, at story end, they decide to hit Genetech's HQ.  New Warriors letters page begins, but with no letters.   Cover by Mark Bagley and Jackson Guice.

PC:    Silver Surfer, Big Bram Bom (unnamed), Zeaklar Flatius Belgewater. 
COM:    Great I first mentioned.  Surfer still trapped in Dynamo City, unable to come up with the 50 (becomes 5 here) credit exit fee.  He stands in line for hours to get work, only to lose the construction job almost immediately.  Now considered a vagrant, a Police robot directs him to Tent City, where he befriends Zeaklar, who feeds him and points him in a direction where he could earn the necessary money, through "Their Life" on SNET on the Stim-Network.  Surfer participates, promised 200 credits, but they extract his most cherished memories and deepest feelings (most of the prominent people in his life are seen here including Galactus, the Elders of the Universe, the Avengers and Defenders, Nenora, Doctor Doom, Loki, Spider-Man, Midnight Sun, Stranger, Super-Skrull, Impossible Man, Alicia Masters, Mephisto, Air-Walker, Firelord, In-Betweener, Ego, Drax the Destroyer, Mentor, Eros, Nova II, Thanos, Death, Shalla Bal, Mantis, Black Bolt, Eternity and Reptyl) and broadcast them to the public.  Worse yet, they cheat him out of all but 2 of the promised credits, and when he complains, he is tossed out of the studio by the Police.  At story end, he returns to Tent City and the other losers.  Signed cover by Ron and Tom.

COM:    1st appearance of Psionex.  Genetch appearance.  The team, minus Robbie, has infiltrated Genetech in Long Island to get answers to questions raised by Mad Thinker last ish, and gets taken down easily by Psionex.  The team is placed in an electrified cage, and Harmon relates his origin, through his past brushes with greatness to the point where he and his company plan to make a race of super humans, and introduces them to Psionex.  Robbie arrives and shorts out the generator, and despite the fact that the police have arrived and they are the trespassers, they escape their cage and attack the new team.  The fight, now that they know what to expect, goes quickly in their favor, and after Coronary shatters on the roof while fighting Nita (and is assumed dead), the battle comes to a close when Harmon is brought to his senses about what he's been doing.  After a promise to be more responsible in the future from Rosen, the team leaves peacefully, and Rosen tells the press that  they had been on site to help with an experiment.  At story end, Sphinx worried about the reappearance of Nova and what it could mean to her plans.

    "Termination"
BY:    Jim Starlin, Ron Marz / Ron Lim, Keith Williams.
PC:    Silver Surfer, Zeaklar Belgewater (full name revealed) , Big Bram Bom (named).
COM:    Surfer still trapped in Dynamo City without his cosmic powers, and now he and his friend, having used up, in trying to escape, all four strikes allowed by law, they both await their Termination Trial.  During the bogus hearing, he is accused of everything from attempted murder on the Great I to failure to make alimony and child support payments to kicking a boy's dog into an incinerator.  His lawyer having been deactivated and the whole proceeding a farce, he is found guilty on all counts and sentenced to death.  The death penalty happens to involve being teleported into open space without a space suit, and, as they are being ejected his friend seems actually happy about the matter.  Outside, Surfer gets his powers back and creates a cube of oxygen around his friend, who explains that it struck him at the last moment before being taken by the City Guards that the Surfer was one of the few beings who could make it possible for him to survive such a fate.  More Guards arrive trying to recapture them when the vacuum of space didn't do the job, and Surfer destroys them easily.  He goes to follow through by paying the mechanical vermin in the city back in full, but Zeaklar stops him reminding him that the innocents in the city would suffer if the hull integrity were breeched.  At story end, his friends asks to be dropped on his home planet of Pyrofax, and Surfer pledges to return someday.
