Unbagged. Direct Edition. Rise of the Midnight Sons: Part 6 of 6 - Guest-starring Nightstalkers, Blade, Frank Drake, Hannibal King, Morbius and Doctor Strange. Written by Howard Mackie. Art by Andy Kubert and Joe Kubert. Story continued from Nightstalkers (1992) #1. Danny Ketch's spirit walks a path between dimensions seeking to return to life. Meanwhile, after an unsuccessful battle against the Midnight Sons in Boston, the demon Lilith orders her offspring Portal to teleport her and her Lilin children to Greenland, and the remains of the Leviathan within which Atlantean sorcerers trapped her for millennia. Once there, Lilith begins a spell to return the rest of her long-lost Lilin to earth. Having detected her actions, Dr. strange gathers the Midnight Sons, teleporting them to the Leviathan site. As they attacked the Lilin, Lilith opens in interdimensional rift in her own body, and reaches in, snatching Dan sold from the void and pulling it to Earth, transformed into a monstrous Lilin. Filled with battle lust, he attacks both sides until Ghost Rider restrains him, then throws him back through the rift. The Midnight Sons slay almost all the Lilin, and Ghost Rider forcibly folds Lilith into her own body's rift, causing her to seemingly explode. After the Sons depart, the sole surviving Lilin, Nakota, emerges from the snow; Lilith appears, and needing sustenance to restore herself, devours her child, vowing the Lilin will be reborn and destroy the Midnight Sons. 32 pages, FC.

Label #3932137011

NOT polybagged - "By Their Own Bootstraps" In 1839, an alien starliner malfunctioned and exploded. A jettisoned life pod crashed in a cotton field in the Deep South. The pod was equipped with a unique survival mechanism that was programmed to configure its passenger's genetic structure to match whatever life form it first encountered. And so it happened that Miriam, the slave who discovered the pod, found inside a baby boy with her mother's eyes. Today, the alien is still alive, in the guise of successful attorney Augustus Freeman IV of Dakota. Still marooned, he waits for Earth's technology to catch up to his life pod's. Secretly possessing superpowers, he quietly helps people in need, until recent events in the city of Dakota - and the arguments of a certain opinionated young woman - compel him to become more than just a silent friend to the community. He dons a costume to become Icon, the hero of Dakota. Written by Dwayne McDuffie, with art by Mark Bright and Mike Gustovich. Cover by Denys Cowan and Jimmy Palmiotti.
