Stealth Squad

    (Petra, 1993-1994)
™ and ©1993 Philip C. Lane

In the near future, a terrible disease (AIDS?) would sweep across America, threatening to make plagues like the Black Death seem minor by comparison. Luckily, a researcher discovered a serum based on “energized blood.” In addition to curing the disease, the serum gave some of its recipients superhuman abilities. The government learned of this rather interesting side-effect and began looking for such people, intending to assemble a strike force comprised of superhumans. Of the hundreds they screened, six went on to become members of their new “Stealth Squad.”

In their super-hero identities, the team consists of Swoop, a speedster; Kid Mammoth, a hulking powerhouse; Fire Flare, a flyer who can also fire energy blasts; Solar Blade, another flyer whose weapon is a sort of energy knife; and leader Stealth One, a super-powered martial arts expert. In this four-issue mini-series, they make their debut and take on the armored warriors of Strikeforce Champion.
