Publisher’s description
Rom and Brandy, now residing in Starshine's Spaceknight armor, are finally free to declare their previously unspoken love for each other. The Gremlin tells the tale of dread and despair as the Dire Wraiths have infiltrate into the highest ranking offices of Mother Russia. That's when the Soviet Super Soldiers (last seen in Incredible Hulk #258-259) attack. Can even Rom stand against the mutant power of Darkstar, Mistress of the Darforce, Vanguard, the patriot hero of the people, and Major Ursus, able to transform into a mighty man-bear whose strength is legend.
