In Deathblow #17 (1995), Michael reunites with his brother at their parents’ graveside, a quiet moment shadowed by rising tension. When Rayna tasks him with protecting a relentless reporter uncovering secrets about Kaizen Gamorra and the long-buried Project Genesis, Michael finds himself caught in a web where even I.O. may not be who they claimed to be. With Woodbern captured and a crucial data disc in his hands, the stakes have never been higher — and the enemy is closer than ever. Written by Brandon Choi and illustrated by Mel Rubi, Duncan Rouleau, and Trevor Scott, with colors by Gloria Vasquez and Quantum Color FX, and lettered by Todd Klein, the cover by Trevor Scott captures the weight of the moment.
