Stock photoThis is a stock scan of the issue, so it shows what the comic looks like rather than this exact copy. Books under $5 are sold on my word: the grade is my honest read of this copy, and anything I spot is written in. If a photo would make the difference, ask and I will do what I can.

Story
The Midnighter is busy making his way towards Kaizen Gamorra's compound, and has to beat up several people to get there. All the while, the Authority is busy fighting off the largest number of Gamorra clones yet. The Doctor takes out about half of the opposing force, but must return to the Carrier after he passes out from the strain. The Engineer creates a web of knives that split the atoms of several more attackers. Apollo has trouble fighting off a huge number of them, but gets help from Jack Hawksmoor and Swift. The Midnighter discovers that Kaizen has some kind of Genetic Reactor that is pumping out superhumans at an exponential rate. He doesn't know how to destroy it, until after a short conversation with Kaizen Gamorra himself. He returns to the Carrier, and rams it right into Gamorra's tower. The tower is destroyed, along with the Reactor inside. Presumably, Kaizen perished as well, although nothing is certain.
