Synopsis[]
A group of survivors huddle together and find inspiration in stories of Magnus' past battles. Though only children themselves, they vow to continue fighting the Malevs. Danae Del Dol, Pert Donner, Spikey and the Outsiders become the Young Wolves.[1]
Notes[]
- The story captures important moments in the history of North Am and life of Magnus paying homage to many original Gold Key characters who hadn't been reintroduced yet, e.g. Danae, H-8, L'sier, Pied Piper, Pert, Spikey, and the Neo-Animals. However, only a few of these character would reappear in future stories. H-8 and the Young Wolves would have one more appearance and only Danae would play a larger role than the character originally did back in the day.
