The War #3

In "Retaliation," the third issue of The War (1989), the world teeters on the edge of total annihilation as failed nuclear detonations leave the planet in chaos. With global powers scrambling—Cuban fleets advancing, U.S. forces mobilizing, and the Soviets poised to strike—psychic terror escalates as Keith Remsen manipulates Harlan Mook from beyond the veil of sleep. Meanwhile, the Star Child, sensing the tide of war, begins its return to Earth. Written by Doug Murray and illustrated by Tom Morgan (with cover art by Morgan), this high-stakes chapter blends geopolitical tension with supernatural dread in a story that refuses to let the world breathe.
