This book is a weird one, I started many Gun stories which where never finished properly, and to be fair, this should really have been one of them. It has tons of staples in it, which shows I kept adding pages over time after probably abandoning it just as many times XD. Anyway, it never describes where this story is set, in the ill-fated re-makes (take one) it was Pakistan, but I think the first version was supposed to be in The Grand Canyon. Well that is in the internationally despised middle bit of America, and would be a Stealth Force stronghold if world war 3 really did happen. A final bit of explanation about this story is it is based on a battle I acted out with toy soldiers one afternoon in our conservatory, which had lots of old chests of drawers and wardrobes in it at the time, which doubled up as cliff faces.

The story begins with Gunn flying about in an odd-looking plane that was based on, of all things, a garden trowel. A computerised voice says "Missiles launched" and Gunn gets blown out of the sky by one of those stupid 'Triangle' missiles that featured so heavily in early stories. Later he comes round upside down, and can see two pairs of feet and someone saying "Shall I kick him again?" if I remember properly this was lifted directly from a 2000AD comic, possibly Outlaw. Meanwhile a bunch of Wolf Force soldiers are massing, a commander called Rik can be seen (didn't he die in book 4? its even weirder because book 4 was made after this one). He is ordering some "Micro Tanks" into some area, the Micro tank was basically an idea I had for a small one-man tank that's little bigger than a small car like a Ford Fiesta, but with heavy armour, tracks and a Minigun on it, which is controlled by one person.

Up on a cliff a sniper with a primitive-looking rifle with a comedy gunsight is saying "There's a base down here, and a tank", before aiming at a fat Stealth Force soldier with a Hitler moustache. He says "got one" and someone on his radio goes "No!" but he already fires, and hits the Hitler bloke, the shot echoes round the canyon, has nobody heard of silencers? After he fires one of the "small queens" from book 4 (I used a partly broken toy star destroyer for these in the battle with toy soldiers, they had the whole top bit taken off and a big missile stuck on with blue-tak. In this story they have one big missile, whereas in book 4 they of course had the more realistic 'rocket pods') and some Jetpack soldiers attack.

The sniper blasts one jetpack, and somehow hits a human-sized object going at 600mph (that's how fast the jetpacks went, funny what little details you remember isn't it?) from... probably far away, the jetpack explodes and the pilot drops out of the air with smoke coming off him. Some bloke runs into battle with a UZI going "Gedem", A tank with two missiles on it shoots them at a cliff-face, taking out a bunch of soldiers coming out of hidden doorways up there. A Wolf Force guy jumps out from behind something with two machine guns and starts blazing away, sending shell casings all over the place.

Back in Gunn's cell an enemy commander comes in and goes "Well Mr Gunn, your friends have caused trouble", before a close up of his very big gun, which he loads and goes "But NO MORE!" This guy is never seen again in the story XD, Gunn adds "Theyl come for me", probably in his best Clint Eastwood impression. Back at the main battle two Stealth force soldiers scream "Get him!" and start shooting at the Sniper with very generic looking guns (one with a 'comedy sight' again). The sniper gets hit but fires one more time and hits another jet pack, the pilot drops out of the air smoking again. One of the enemy 'queens' is flying along, its pilot says "More enemies coming!" and the machine gunner in the turret at the front of it (with some terrible attempts at perspective) goes "Get em!" and blasts away with his quad-barrelled guns. A Wolf Force soldier gets hit and blood sprays out of him like silly string (this frame needs to be seen to be believed).

Gunn, still hanging upside down goes "I can use the battle as cover", it took him that long to think of an idea like that? Something flies into something and explodes, the "Bam" looks more like "8am". Gunn is hoisting himself up and undoing the locks on his feet, they come undone and he falls on the floor. He reaches over for The Gun and his helmet (how did they, and him for that matter, survive the plane crash?), but a guy with a HUGE head and a really small gun comes in going "Stop!" A bizarre bit of arty-farty crap shows the gun barrel and the silhouette of the guy being hit at the same time. Gunn walks out of the room and The Gun goes "Welcome back"... it can TALK now??

Outside a Scud-like missile has arrived and gets fired at one of the 'star destroyer' queens, the explosion goes right through it. Some Aliens-like sentry guns (what do you mean you haven't seen the directors cut?) are guarding a hallway, Gunn chucks in a rock and it gets blown away by thousands of bullets. He sets the grenade launcher to fire a 'bounce grenade', the display shows that it carries 7 different types of grenade, including "Hiel Hitler", "Smoke" (the same as Stun Gas?) and "Laserblock" (what?). Despite the fact that the launcher is the size of a tube of pringles it somehow stores all these, and the firing mechanisms, and the stuff for the display screen, and a sword as well, don't forget XD. He fires the bounce grenade and it blows away the sentry guns without being shot. He walks out of a door in the base, going "Yes! I'm out", also his hands are huge in this frame. He shoots randomly into the air, presumably at a Jetpack, when one lands next to him, the guy going "Hey, you!" Gunn kicks him and the jetpack falls off, before the pilot goes over the cliff. Gunn gets on the jet pack and flies away, meanwhile another guy falls off his as it starts to burn, it flies into the air and explodes, the explosion is seen by a far-away Stealth Force soldier who mistakes it for a flare.

Gunn swoops into battle, and we now see Wolf Force stealth fighters have joined in and are dogfighting the jetpacks, they seem to be only using scatter machine guns and not missiles. A Wolf Force pilot somehow notices "Its Gunn" (can he see his name badge when they are both moving at several hundred miles per hour or something?). Suddenly the really big 'queen' from book 4 appears, except its stripy and has eyes and a mouth painted on it, which look nothing like the eyes or mouth on a Bee. Gunn shoots a jetpack's wing with his own jetpack, and it goes flying off in a random pattern (this happened a lot in the battle I acted out with toy soldiers, because its cool). One of the 'star destroyer' queens is flying over the battlefield, in a scene similar to the AT-AT sequence of The Empire Strikes Back, suddenly the jetpack flies into it and explodes, the pilot is still alive and slides off the side on fire. Gunn is still making his way through the battle when his fuel starts running low, he can see the damaged queen struggling to stay in the air behind the large one, so he jumps off the jetpack screaming "Ditchin!" I put my signature at the bottom of this frame cause I thought it looked cool at the time XD. He grabs onto a convenient ladder handle on the small wings/missile launchers of the big queen, the jetpack carries on and slams into the damaged one.

Next Gunn can be seen coming out of the floor inside a hallway in the big one. Up on the 'bridge' the pilot says an enemy queen can be seen, so fires the missiles out of the Wings at it. Inside Gunn shoots a few people, but is spotted on the security cameras. Two guys (one with a stupid beard) come after him, one gets shot, but Gunn pauses to see the Wolf Force queen (which looks nothing like the one in the prequel, it looks totally stupid) get hit. He is looking out of the window, and the reflection of it burning and falling out of the sky can be seen in the window, I signed this frame too XD.

The final page looks very rushed, it was probably done in a time when I wasn't that interested in drawing comics (people who have visited my site for a decent length of time might notice my interests shift around, sometimes I am really into doing comics, and neglect other things, while other times I am really into, say doom wads, or klik game making, and neglect my comics). Gunn stands in the cargo room going "Gotta wreck this!" he opens a crate next to him and finds loads and loads of C4 plastic explosives, which is moulded into blocks with C4 written on them. The guy with the stupid beard (and now huge feet) comes in going "Don't move!" Gunn pulls the clip out of his gun, going "Look, no ammo", then fires the flame thrower going "For the gun", that sequence was stupid then and is worse now XD.

He sticks a timer into the C4 and flies out of the window on a Jetpack he must have found just laying around, the dog-fighting jetpacks and stealth fighters in the background and now drawn as just triangles, a real sign of laziness XD. The Queen explodes and Gunn walks across the battlefield, some guy comes up and goes "Great work sarge!" Gunns wise-cracking comment? "I know", WHAT an ending eh? A final note about this story is that it doesn't contain a single "Urg", some of the other sounds people make when they die in this one include "Ak", "Uk", "Aark" and "Wagle"… that last one was the silly string blood guy.
