Goliath

Linked directly to Volume #69, the story begins with Fedorov still trapped inside the ancient Sphinx, but where it soon goes from there is a wild new twist, and a new story line. Hold on to your hats, Director Kamenski has another mission for Karpov, Fedorov, and crew, and it is different from anything  they have ever been asked to do. The problem is the dread Grand Finality rearing its ugly head again. Karpov thought the mission to the polar bases using Baikal  to plant hidden tactical nukes had made an end of the Finality when the initial Skeletal invasion was stopped, but now Kamenski reveals that the fierce Alien race is not yet through with Earth, and that they have planned for the annihilation of humanity another way. Kamenski gambles that men like Karpov, Fedorov, Troyak and his Marines are just the type to  foil the plot the Ice Men are hatching, but to do this they have to go to the strangest farthest place the saga has ever reached.

The Skeletals are once again the primary antagonists, and it will take all Fedorov's reasoned wits, Karpov's razer sharp military instincts, and the muscle and bravado of Troyak and his Black Death Marines to pull this mission off against the most dangerous foe they have ever faced. It's an amazing twist in the series to try and save the earth itself and everything on it.
