Synopsis:
The government asks Forge to create more neutralizers to battle Dire Wraiths and stop Wraith-World from merging with Earth. Since Gyrich used the last neutralizer he was given to rob Forge's girlfriend, Storm, of her mutant powers, however, he refuses. With the black spot on the sun growing ever larger and the fate of the world becoming ever more dire, Rom flies to Forge's aerie to personally ask him to help. After an attack by Wraiths, Forge agrees. Brandy wakes up from her coma to discover her Starshine powers are gone.
