"A Plague among Us" kicks off Darkstar and the Winter Guard #1 with a tense, grounded pulse—Russian heroes bound by duty to ex-KGB overseers, led by the enigmatic former Airstrike. When they team up with the Agents of Atlas to face Krang, the real test may not be the enemy at hand, but the ghosts from their past rising again. Written by David Gallaher and illustrated by Steve Ellis, with colors by Val Staples and inks by Scott Hanna, the issue’s cover by Clayton Henry captures the weight of that uneasy alliance.

In "null," the Winter Guard find themselves caught between duty and legacy as they operate under the watchful eye of their ex-KGB liaison, the former Airstrike. When they team up with the Agents of Atlas to face the threat of Krang, the real test comes not from the battlefield, but from the ghosts of their past—former comrades returning with unknown intentions.
