1. Kallark is not getting enough of the necessary data from the probes sent into the Fault, so he has no choice but to send a team out to do recon. It's an awkward feeling for many; Kallark is not used to sitting on the sidelines when action is needed, nor are his Imperial Guard used to working with the people they've been assigned to.
2. Is Black Bolt alive? The Imperial Guard's mission into the bizarre and dangerous realm of the Fault begins! Their objective: to find any remaining evidence of the two missing kings! Patience and restraint are put to the test as the Guard is obliged to work alongside the pirate Starjammers they have spent so many years pursuing. Can they learn to get along...or will the Fault finish them before they get the chance?
3. The Imperial Guard escape from the dying biological ship they have found, but not without having their scent picked up by the things the ship was running from in the first place.
4. Deep in the Fault, the Imperial Guard uncovers a catastrophic threat to the security of the entire Marvel Cosmos. The question is, can they stop it? Can they survive long enough to get a warning to Gladiator? And is the greatest threat they face actually coming from inside their own ranks? It's more mind-blowing combat sci-fi at its most brutal from the creators that do it best!
5. Deep in the unknown territories of The Fault, the Imperial Guard and their reluctant allies the Starjammers fight for their lives -- and glimpse the true cosmic horror growing in the heart of this deadly new territory!
