In June 1972, the First Line tracks their captured teammates to an abandoned warehouse in Cleveland. They fight Nocturne, and what appears to be the Red Skull and the Invaders. Meanwhile, President Nixon wants to use the First Line in a mission of domestic subversion, much against the protests of Jacob Scott (secretly Effigy) and the Black Fox. In order to stop Nixon, Effigy contacts Bob Woodward, a reporter at the Washington Post. Cassandra Locke has been thrown forward in time to the 1990s, where she witnesses Yeti's encounter with the Human Torch (Johnny Storm) and meets the Fantastic Four.
