Stories

Whatever Happened to Scorpio? · 20 pages
The ESP Division picks up "possible danger", sending Nick straight into a trap set by Scorpio! Nick is captured. Fury manages to dodge one death trap after another, then faces his would-be killer. He pursues the escaping imposter, who tears off his mask, revealing his true identity to Nick-- just before being caught in a hail of gunfire from a group of SHIELD agents! After, Nick stands alone on a dock, looking out over the water, wondering if the man who tried so very hard to murder him is still alive.

Publisher’s description

Scorpio returns and successfully traps Nick Fury, who was scheduled to attend the unveiling of a new and improved LMD. With Fury his captive, Scorpio uses a machine to make a perfect casting of his face which he then wears as a mask to impersonate him and attend the unveiling in his place.
