Stormwatch
Lucas has been following Andrew Pulaski (Apollo) for over a year and is first seen intervening StormWatch's recruitment of Apollo, managing to seemingly knock out 3 members of Stormwatch. Lucas shows an admiration for Andrew's work slaughtering a child porn ring and implies he knows why Andrew has not come out as a superhero. Their conversation is however, cut short when Martian Manhunter reveals he was playing possum and tells them both that recruiting Apollo was to help fight the war currently developing with the Moon. Midnighter finds himself in the middle of the fight when members of StormWatch are absorbed by the alien creature spawned by the Moon, he manages to get instruct the Projectionist to fire energy from Stormwatch HQ's power collectors, rejuvenating a fallen Apollo and freeing StormWatch. While trying to find an escape from Stormwatch HQ, Midnighter and Apollo connect further over their goals and are implied that both have a secret many people may not love. Midnighter eventually discovers Harry Tanner stealing data discs and begins to fight him, dominating until Harry takes the Projectionist hostage and escapes via Hyperchute following a massive detonation on the ship. With Stormwatch HQ torn apart, Midnighter is stuck floating in Hyperspace seconds from dying until Apollo swoops in to save him. Midnighter, in his daze, non-regrettingly proclaims his attraction to Apollo through the Martian's psychic link before they smash through Jenny Quantum's forcefield bubble for air. While recovering in the recently reformed Stormwatch HQ medical bay, Midnighter tells the Angela Spica (Prime Earth) that he is joining Stormwatch against Harry Tanner and that Apollo will follow suit.
