Then: David Colton underwent the
super-soldier procedure, proud to serve his country. He was surprised to find Doctor
Saraf did not share this view; while he and his family of immigrants appreciated
the opportunities America offered, he was aware that at any moment the political
winds could turn against them. Dave and his fellow volunteer Chuck were told
that their first test mission would be on American soil….
Now: Nuke has blown up Dave Colton’s
cabin. Wolverine finds the critically injured Teri O’Barnes under Captain
America’s shield. Nuke’s backup arrives and Logan carries Teri to safety,
brining the shield too. Colton sets off booby traps to slow the bad guys down
as they escape into the woods….
Then: Accompanied by a squad of
soldiers who do not appreciate having them along, Dave and Chuck head to a
motel where terrorist Khalid al-Omar is hiding. The mission goes wrong, Omar
escapes, the two super-soldiers pursue….
Now: Logan and Teri board Colton’s
small plane. He is certain the fugitive Tyler Torrens is heading to the
headquarters of Primewarrior to take revenge against its founder Nick Pruet….
Meanwhile, we see Tyler on his way
to South Dakota with the mystery box, having hitched a ride with a concerned
trucker….
Back at the ruins of David Colton’s
cabin, Nuke is being rebuked for disobeying orders and Professor Ash identifies
a diagnostic device for a Stark medical arc reactor. He calls Pruet to warn him
about Dave Colton’s new heart and the others on their way….
Then: Dave and Chuck pursued the
fleeing Omar and Chuck collapsed from a heart attack. Dave followed him to the airport
where he stood on the runway and allowed Omar’s small plane to crash into his
shield and wreck itself. Dave returned to find Chuck dead….
Now: On their way to Primewarrior,
Teri explains how she was trying to atone for her earlier deeds and then she
dies. Colton asks Logan if he is planning to kill Pruet or hope he repents like
Teri did….
Tyler arrives at Primewarrior’s
front door and he tells the guards to let him in or he will destroy the Box
that Pruet is so keen to get….
Then: Dave reports Chuck’s death
to Doctor Saraf; Saraf admits that they knew the super-soldier process weakened
the heart and that Chuck must have had some family history to account for his
sudden death. Saraf assures Dave that his heart is good for five to ten years.
Dave is shocked but Saraf tells him he is the sole survivor of the program, the
new Captain America….
Now: Wolverine and David Colton arrive
at the Primewarrior compound to find dead bodies everywhere. And then they face
a new super soldier, a clone of Nuke, clutching the unconscious Tyler in one
hand and the Box in the other….
