The Agents of G.A.T.E. vs. the Brothers of the Bomb!
In a realm far more fantastical than our own, a Sky Goddess is missing… And in pursuit of their vanished cosmic princess and her nefarious captors, a squadron of soldiers from the Unknown have invaded our planet! As tensions run high and trust becomes scarce, can X-O Manowar and G.A.T.E. leader Colonel Capshaw band together to keep our world from becoming ensnared in a battle larger than life?

Quotes[]
- I know that you attacked me. I know that you don't belong here. And I know my job is to do something about that. So tell me...what more do I need to know?
- -- X-O Manowar
- Like every invader from afar...you carry your ignorance like a badge as you stumble into a new land.
- -- X-O Manowar
- Welcome, friends! What brings you to our paradise? Are you true believers? Have you been lost and look to be found? It is not a surprise that you have come. All roads lead to the same place, you know.
- All roads once led to Rome and it was burned to the ground.
- -- X-O Manowar
- The David Camp that once lived has died and been reborn. You may call me the Cartographer. I was touched once by the divine. How many of you can say that you truly saw the face of a god? Divinity reached out and pulled me off the cliff face of obscurity. Bring me the book. At first it seemed happenstance, but his touch opened my eyes. I began to see patterns. I began to see a purpose in everything. I saw the universe...time and space...as an immense map to be navigated. Time is not absolute. Space is not finite. Reality is not singular.
- -- David Camp
- We preach peace here. I simply wish to instill the highest form of tolerance. With tolerance comes acceptance. And with acceptance comes ultimate knowledge. Isn't that right, my love?
