| Long Summary
An Action Force team consisting of Heavy Metal, Quick Kick and Alpine
are briefed by Flint on an A.W.E. Striker. A Cobra agent, Tony Lander,
breached scurity at a Ministry of Defense Installation and stole a
canister containing a lethal nerve gas.
Heavy Metal revels that he knew Lander previously, as Lander had
protected Heavy Metal from bullies. Lander said that Heavy Metal had
owed him a favor.
The Action Force team arrives and goes to confront Lander at the top of
the building. Heavy Metal tries to talk Lander out of his suicidal
plan but fails. As Lander prepares to release the gas, he is ambushed
by Quick Kick and Alpine. Heavy Metal and Lander end up in a stand
off, but Heavy Metal doesn't want to pull the trigger. Shots are
fired, and Lander falls.
Heavy Metal looks up to see that Destro in a F.A.N.G. had fired the
shot. Destro likened Lander to a mad dog that had to be put down, and
says now Heavy Metal owes him a favor.
