Erik posted the cover on his facebook account.

Looks like Vanguard's enemies, the Tyrrus Combine (SP?) finally invade Earth! I hope Vanguard didn't leave yet!

Here's the synopsis from http://www.savagedragon.com


SAVAGE DRAGON #178

INVASION!
The war comes to earth at last! Can the combined might of Earth's greatest heroes hope to overcome their greatest challenge ever?

32 PAGES - FC - $3.50


Maybe some guest stars?

A good old fashioned alien invasion! This is going to rock, and it looks like there is a chance that Malcolm and Dragon might be reunited sooner rather than later.

It's a plot line almost 30 years in the making.

Considering The Invincible War brought in a shitload of Image guest stars, it certainly makes sense for the likes of Spawn, Shadowhawk, Invincible, Witchblade, etc. to show up here too.

I'll be happy if we see more of the SD cast return to battle though. SuperPatriot, Barbaric, Ricochet, whoever survived from the S.O.S., Rock and company, Max Damage and Brute Force...

Plus, it'll be neat to see Vanguard getting the focus both in the back-up and presumably the main story too. This could be BIG. Bring on the casualties! :)

I mentioned on Erik's FB pic of the cover that it'd be dealing with a dangling plot thread nearly 20 years old but you're right. The original stories in MEGATON from the early 80s were the true start of this thread. Neat!

I don't remember where I read it but I'm sure I remember Erik saying that the Vanguard serial would lead-in to the main storyline. As the serial will now be running concurrently with the invasion storyline, I guess plans have changed. It could be a little odd seeing Van in various adventures in the back-up while also dealing with his people's enemies in the main story. However, as a big fan of Vanguard, the more exposure the better.

Gavin, we may be coordinating the main story and Van back-up together as we approach that event.

Cool, I hoped you would rather than having the Van stories take place before the invasion or whatever. I hope to see your rendition of the Tyrrus Combine!
