In "Foreword," the third chapter of A Shadowline Saga: "Critical Mass," Dirk Ravenscore, aided by the enigmatic Pan, summons the ancient shadow Sabnak to hunt down the Power Line kids in Hong Kong.

Written by D. G. Chichester and Margaret Clark, with striking art by Gray Morrow and vivid colors by Steve Buccellato, Sherilyn Van Valkenburgh, John Wellington, and Christie Scheele, this 1990 Marvel issue delivers high-stakes tension and a chilling twist, all framed by John Bolton’s intense cover art.
In "Standing Before The Rubicon," Dirk Ravenscore, backed by the enigmatic Pan, summons the ancient shadow Sabnak to hunt down the Power Line kids in Hong Kong—only for the children to turn the tide and force Sabnak to lead them straight to Ravenscore. Faced with the dire threat of a nuclear holocaust orchestrated by Professor Henry Clerk, Ravenscore makes a final, desperate choice that could change everything.
