Freedom Fighters #9
Synopsis
With the aid of the Crusaders, the Silver Ghost, posing as the Americommando, has defeated his hated enemies, the Freedom Fighters. Hooking the Freedom Fighters up to New York's power grid, the Silver Ghost leaves his foes to be electrocuted, upon the generator's activation. Outside, television reporter Martha Roberts revives the downed Crusader, Barracuda. Roberts tries to convince the Barracuda that Americommando is really the Silver Ghost. Unfortunately, before she can make her case, the Americommando interrupts. Discrediting Roberts isn't enough, so the Americommando slaps her across the face to shut her up. The chivalrous Barracude immediately retaliates against his teammate. A brief battle breaks out between the two men, with the Americommando ending it triumphant. Americommando lies to the Crusaders about the Freedom Fighters true whereabouts, instead ordering them to head west in pursuit of the fleeing heroes. Once the Crusaders have departed, the Americommando forcibly drags Roberts back to the power plant, so that she may bear witness to the execution of the Freedom Fighters. Meanwhile, the Ray has revived. Unable to break loose from his bonds, the Ray desperately tries to revive Uncle Sam before the generators come online. None of the Freedom Fighters, however, awaken. As the generators come to life, the Ray absorbs the entirety of the electrical energy output. At last, Uncle Sam awakens and uses his great strength to free his teammates. The Ray releases the stored up electrical charge he just absorbed back into the generator, ending the blackout plaguing New York City. The Freedom Fighters then depart, in pursuit of the Crusaders. Moments later, the Americommando, still dragging Roberts, arrives, and discovers that the Freedom Fighters have escaped the fate he intended for them. Deciding to keep Roberts as a hostage, the Americommando heads back to Manhattan.The Freedom Fighters catch up with the Crusaders. The Ray releases the rest of his stored up electrical...
