Strikeforce: Morituri #1

In "Paths of Glory," the newly formed Morituri face their first mission: a brutal clash against Horde robots powered by severed human heads, each trapped in endless torment. The team must push through the horror of their enemies' suffering while confronting the moral weight of their own existence.

In "... Rode the Six Hundred...", the remnants of Strikeforce: Morituri confront a chilling mystery when they uncover a video recording of the Black Watch’s final moments—its members seemingly slaughtered in a brutal ambush. The discovery takes a grim turn when they find the severed head of Black Watch leader Clinton Rogers aboard a Horde vessel, forcing the team to reckon with a threat that’s both personal and terrifyingly close.

In "The Undiscovered Country...", the Morituri team races to master their new flying shoes while grappling with the shocking return of Marathon, presumed dead. Tensions rise when the Horde secretly deliver a video to Radian, hinting that Bruce Higashi of the Black Watch may still be alive.

In "The Birthgrave," Jo and the rest of Strikeforce: Morituri face a brutal ambush when the Horde exploits their personal ties—targeting Jo’s parents to lure them into a deadly trap. As the team fights to survive, desperate choices force Marathon to make a final sacrifice, and Commander Nion’s fate is sealed by the very process that granted them their powers.

In "Johnny, We Hardly Knew Ye...", the legacy of the Morituri continues as the Third Generation emerges, including the actor who portrayed Vyking on the show that inspired them. With a new commander taking the reins after Commander Nion's death, the past and present collide when Generation One and Two clash with the new recruits. The cost of power is starkly revealed as Wildcard and Adept fall to the Morituri Process.
