March 2019; Killraven and his band of freemen are crossing Lake Michigan on an ice catamaran; Two huge sea lampreys break through the ice and attack; One plants its sucker on Grok's back; Carmilla Frost tries to rescue him; The other lamprey knocks M'Shulla's crossbow out of his hands before he can fire; Hawk pulls Frost away from her useless attack, but she slugs him; Killraven kills the other lamprey with a harpoon gun, then swings above the first one and hits it with a silver star so that Grok won't also be killed; As it stands, Grok barely survived; In Chicago, the Martians have replaced the Loop with Central Command, which is only the hub of Death-Birth, a research center and slave pen; In Indianapolis, the High Overlord interrogates Skar about his encounter with Killraven (in issue #25); Skar gladly accepts a mission to track down Killraven. Reprint back-up story: "The Strangers" with art by Herb Familton. The letters page contains Marvel Value Stamp series A #22 (Man-Thing).
