Terra Obscura: S.M.A.S.H. of Two Worlds #[nn]

In "The Man Who Killed the Future," Carol, Ms. Masque, and Grant track down the elusive Tom Strange, while Scarab and Liberator face their own grim discovery in Mr. X. As the search reaches its peak, Carol confronts a long-lost presence—her father’s spirit—forcing her to reckon with a past she never knew.

In "The World's Best," the arrival of a long-lost spacecraft from deep space stirs unexpected tension among the heroes, as the Oracle reveals that Captain Future—thought to have vanished decades ago—may have returned. With the Thunderbolt descending from the stars, the past and present collide, setting the stage for a reunion that could change everything.

In "S.M.A.S.H. of Two Worlds!", a routine gathering of SMASH takes an unexpected turn when a group of familiar heroes from the past steps through a dimensional rift. Tim, determined to reconcile with Diana—now known as Ms. Masque—finds himself caught between duty and longing as the two eras collide.

In "I Was a Teenage Sidekick!", Tom Strange races to uncover the mystery behind Andrew Bryant's ship and a series of dangerous timeslips, while Diana (Ms Masque) grapples with the shocking truth that Tim is gone—and Bob (the Terror) now wears his body like a borrowed suit.

In "Unfriendly Skies!", the Terror seizes control of Captain Future's time-warping ship, using it to rewrite history by reliving and reshaping Earth's past—most notably, a terrifying recreation of Pearl Harbor on a global scale. With the fate of the timeline hanging in the balance, the battle for history itself begins.

In "Prisoners of Infinity!", Tom Strange, Pantha, Terror, and Ms Masque are trapped aboard Captain Future's ship as time-slips spiral out of control. With the government poised to nuke the vessel at the first sign of danger, the sorcerous heroes must rally their wits and powers to devise a desperate escape before time itself collapses around them.

In "Future Now!", as Bryant's ship hurtles toward Earth, time itself begins to unravel around them. Strange fights to reach the ship's core while the enigmatic robotic Tim/Terror moves with a hidden agenda. Pantha and Ms Masque race to save Bryant, but with time bending and minds fraying, their mission grows more desperate by the second.

In "The Legend of the Black Terror: Who He is and How He Came to Be," scientist Bob Benton stumbles upon a wild transformation after inhaling formic ether vapors, gaining super-strength and a sudden urge to embrace a swashbuckling persona. Inspired by a dusty book on pirates, he dons a dramatic pirate costume and becomes a force of legend in his own right—though just how he came to be remains shrouded in mystery.
