Resistance (Volume 1) with a cover date of June, 2009.
Synopsis for "Target With Five Faces"
The issue begins with Capelli taking cover from Titan fire as two other Sentinel soldiers run into the hanger where the bomb is, but only to find another Titan guarding it. One of the soldiers runs up to the Titan and stabs it in the groin, and then throws a grenade into its mouth. The group then attempts to disarm the bomb while the instructions written on paper start to evaporate from the gas. As Capelli tries to find a place to retreat his comrade, Waldron, provides some covering fire before being killed by a Titan. After Waldron's death, Capelli gives the order to rescue Doctor Oppenheimer. While Capelli finds a safe place, the rest of his squad saves the doctor. Capelli then rams a wall down with a tank and orders the rest of the Sentinels to bring the bomb onto the tank in order for Oppenheimer to defuse it. They then notice a Chimera battleship heading their way.

Synopsis for the 2nd Story
In the side-story, British forces are shown fighting a losing battle with the Chimera, while in another scene Johnny Grayson is flying back to England. While on the plane Johnny meets Rachel Parker, whom he often saw at the base but never spoke with her before. He told Parker that if she wanted a report about the Chimeras' Earth Movers he did a fine job of killing endless waves of Chimera. Later Johnny speaks with James, who is in a hospital because of his leg, telling him to stop messing around, as he knew James would frequently disobey orders and endanger the lives of other soldiers. Johnny further mentions that he had seen James' boot camp file and was starting to lose faith in him. James replied coldly, saying that Johnny left both him and his mother, and that they are done talking. James begins to think about how badly the war in Europe has gone, and that if London falls then the end is near.
