    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    They are Stormwatch, a dangerous super human police force whose existence is kept secret from the world Directly following the ominous events of SUPERMAN #1, Adam One leads half the Stormwatch team to recover the [INFORMATION REDACTED] from deep in the Himalayas. Meanwhile, Jack Hawksmoor and the rest of the Stormwatch crew look to recruit two of the deadliest super humans on the planet: Midnighter and Apollo! And if they say no? Perhaps the Martian Manhunter can change their minds...

    General Notes

    Superman appears in one panel of the issue but it does not count as a credited appearance as it is not actually Superman but a photo-shopped picture Projectionist finds on the Internet, depicting Apollo beating the tar out of "you-know-who" on comparethepowers.com.

    The Demon Knights also appear in a single panel as a flashback to what are assumed to be previous incarnations of Stormwatch.

Adam One isn't taking any chances on the latter being the case and set's his sights on the solar powered juggernaut Apollo being his ace in the hole.The GoodI absolutely love how big Cornell's thinking with this series.
