    THE WOLFBRIDGE AFFAIR - Part 1 of 4. Aric was a Goth attacking the Roman Empire when he was first captured by the Spider Aliens. Hundreds of years later, he escaped after stealing the aliens' most powerful weapon, the sentient X-O Armor. With this armor he has learned to survive in today's complicated world, a world that he first experienced just three years ago. One key to Aric's ability to adapt has been his friendship and love with the intelligent and beautiful Randy Cartier, a former Canadian Secret Service Agent. When Randy's friend and colleague Paul lost his life saving Aric from Spider Aliens, it was too much for Randy. She fled from Aric to Canada where she and her former Secret Service comrades met to remember Paul's passing. While in Canada, an old enemy of Randy and Paul's unit begins to kill members one by one. Thus begins this incredible four-part story in which Aric goes to Canada to find Randy, where he too becomes embroiled in The Wolfbridge Affair! "Opening Gambit" is written by Jorge Gonzalez, with art by Rik Levins and Randy Elliott. Cover by Jeff Johnson and Tom Ryder. Cover price $2.25.
