In "Future Intense," Bishop and Shard reflect on their lives as members of the XSE, sharing memories of their time in a harsh, uncertain future—especially Bishop’s bond with his fellow troopers, Malcolm and Randall. Written by John Ostrander and illustrated by Deodato Studios with contributions from Mozart Couto, this 1996 issue captures the weight of loyalty and duty in a fractured world, all framed by Jim Cheung’s cover art and Rob Hunter’s inks.
