Solicitation[]
It’s a hell of a day in the neighborhood.
The darkness bubbling beneath the miraculous town of Rook, Michigan is beginning to surface. As Generation Zero closes in on the vicious force abducting and killing teenagers, they quickly discover that this self-proclaimed utopia has been hiding a deep and disturbing secret that could destroy them all! But as the truth takes shape, will this reformed strike squad bring their first case to a close peacefully…or with a bang large enough to register on the Rictor scale?
The heat is on as New York Times best-selling writer Fred Van Lente (ARCHER & ARMSTRONG) and acclaimed artist Francis Portela (FAITH) light a fire under Valiant’s teenage superteam!

Notes[]
- There are no credits but it is assumed the same creative team worked on the entire first story arc (except for Derek Charm's additional art in issue #3).
- The summary of the previous issues still has Keisha Sherman listed as Keisha Thomas.
Cornermen Speech[]
- The Cornermen's dialogue translates to:
- A FAERIE HUNKY SOY OUT? => "You think you are safe?"
- CHROME FEWER MEOW... => "Where we come from..."
- ...LEATHER EWE MUSK! => "... Kwame!" (???)
- WELSH OUTS YOU! => "Let us show you!"
- CHIMES SUET YOU! => ???
Quotes[]
- What you're taking about is something Nietzsche called "Master-Slave Morality." -- The weak define the strong as evil, for being strong and oppressing them. -- And the strong define the weak as evil, for being weak... -- ...and for allowing themselves to be oppressed. -- Beyond Good and Evil. You should check it out.
- -- Cronus
- Nietzsche's a pretty funny writer. You know, for a German.
- -- Animalia
- No. This is not on the "edge." This is far, far beyond the "edge." As in the foundational technology that needs to be invented before this can be invented hasn't been invented yet. This equipment is literally from the future. Where and how did Rook get this?
