File:Alpha Flight Vol 1 109 001.jpg

Description
Puck arrives in Russia to collect Alpha Flight and bring them home from their World Tour, as an emergency has arisen in the States. However they do some sight-seeing, only to be caught up in tangled web when they are attacked by ninjas of the Hand. Wanting to know why they were attacked, Heather agrees to go with the Russians who rescued her and her teammates, despite some protest from members of her team. They are taken to the headquarters of the KGB, where Puck is reunited with an old friend, who explains that the Hand have taken over a dangerous Russian facility and are preparing to use its weapons. Alpha Flight agree to help the Russians, so they go to the facility with a squad led by Alexei. They are shot down by the Hand, and begin to battle the ninjas once again, while Heather and Alexei make their way through the complex to disarm the weapons. Jeanne-Marie returns in place of Aurora and displays her power in a way never used before, while inside the complex, Alexei is shot by one of the Hand. With his dying breath he tells Heather the code to destroy the complex, which she punches in, and flees, just in time.
