Synopsis
Morrison and Quitely continue their unique "Westernized manga." A cyborg dog, cat and rabbit tear through everything the military turns against them, only to come face-to-face with a teeming wave of frenzied, cyber-enhanced rats. And in a bloody battle already filled with considerable cost, the three will make an unforgivable mistake of fatal consequence...The issue opens up with Bandit, Pirate and Tinker frantically evading open fire from the US military in the form of heavily equipped helicopters, Humvees and ground troops . The scene then swaps back to Doctor Trendle explaining to both Roseanne Berry and the US government (via phonecall) the dangers of the three animals. "Oh, those poor men." He gasps after hanging up his phone.After being cornered, all three of the animals fight back and attack their aggressors, quickly thinning out their ranks using their own bodies/claws/teeth and ammunition as weapons. It isn't long before the woods where the animals tried to take refuge in is littered to the brim with the decaying bodies of soldiers and destroyed military vehicles.After hearing the news of soldiers dying in battle, Doctor Trendle sites that the whole point of the animal experiments was so that no man should have to die. He says this with a smile on his face as he heartlessly confronts his lab mice with a set of pliers and a medical drill.After the battle it is revealed that Pirate's tail is damaged and Tinker's set of razor claws are missing. It is also revealed to Roseanne Berry that she would be used to gain control of the animals, much to her discretion.Angered by Bandit's tactics, Tinker tries to flee from both Bandit and Pirate which causes an argument and than a physical confrontation between the animals. Distracted by one another they fail to acknowledge that they are slowly being surrounded by a heard of mechanized mind-controlled mice. Bandit protects Tinker in the attack as the mice quickly out-number and overwhelm the animals. Shortly after the fight...
