It all starts with "L-O-V-E" by Griffin Sheridan, Ethan Parker, and Edison Neo, a heart-wrenching-out-of-chests twist of a slasher tale! Plus more-sickly-than-sweet tales of loves lost, changed, and downright strange in "Words in the Smoke" by Maria Llovet, "Evermore" by David Hazan and Stefano Nesi, "The Booth" by Anirudh J, and "Excision" by Chris Gooch and Eli Powell! All this and more romantic rejection and rollicks in another of Robert Hack's "I Can't Take You Anywhere" and more!

In the nearby galaxy of Limbo, the deadly mob boss Mon*Star has escaped from his confinement on Penal Planet 10 - and he's looking to take revenge on everyone who put him there!
At the top of that list is Commander Stargazer, the grizzled space cop who personally took Mon*Star down the last time he went on a rampage. To recapture Mon*Star and his gang of super-criminal associates, Stargazer must put his retirement on hold and assemble a new team of his famed bionically enhanced law enforcers - the SilverHawks!
Recruited from every corner of known space by the Federal Interplanetary Force, the SilverHawks were engineered to be the first line of defense against Limbo's ruthless agents of chaos. But during Mon*Star's long incarceration, the program went dormant, and its state-of-the-art tech has drifted towards obsolescence. Now, as they take on the galaxy's deadliest lawbreakers, Stargazer's new team of untested cyborgs - including Quicksilver, Bluegrass, Hotwing, Steelwill, Steelheart, and The Copper Kidd - will face the ultimate trial by fire!
Rising star writer ED BRISSON (ThunderCats: Apex, The Uncanny X-Men) and acclaimed artist GEORGE KAMBADAIS (Gargoyles, Hercules) open up an all-new entry in the FIF's legendary case files with SilverHawks #1 - featuring beautifully polished covers from KAMBADAIS, LUCIO PARRILLO, JAE LEE & JUNE CHUNG, JAMES STOKOE, IVAN TAO, DECLAN SHALVEY, MANIX, GERALDO BORGES, and DAVID COUSENS!

Kennedy's motorcade passed the grassy knoll...and a woman in red with X's for eyes picked up a rifle in the window of the Texas Book Depository.
