Competition for dwindling water and power resources have led the world to the brink of war. A mad Russian physicist sets off a device meant to disarm all the radioactive material on Earth. Instead, it plunges most of the planet into a permanent blackout. All except for a one long stretch of North America - through Alaska, across Canada, and down to Detroit through to New York City. And the Red Rogue's device that set all this in motion seems to have given the locals superpowers! Cover by Jason Edmiston.
