Plot edit

Following the end of the Soviet Union occupation of Afghanistan, soldier Andrian Trofimovich Linov returns home with a plan to destabilise the government. However, faced with an impending genocide, he is forced to defend the very system he sought to tear down. With the assistance of his friends Elektrik Feliks and Nadejda Kosakhova, he must stop the release of a deadly bioweapon that will cause World War III.

Reception edit

A review in the The Slings & Arrows Comic Guide stated, "Creator Ed Hannigan's art is admirably dark and his plotting dense and diligent, with not a page wasted. A true graphic novel."[1]
