Tigers of Terra Vol. 2 (2000-2001) #3

Plot

Even with Mars' all-male Eagle Squadron joining in, the Earth Volunteer Group's all-female Tiger Squadron is fighting a losing battle against the mighty Amazonas/Viragonian Empire, backed by their Terror Squadron of Neo-Nazi Luftwaffe. The old-guard Khan Empire is lost to the enemy ground forces, and to prevent its vast blue-navy fleet from falling into Viragonian hands, the EVG forces are ordered to attack their former Allies without mercy until their own fleet can reach them. As a result, this causes severe strain with the escaped Khan forces in exile and threatens the very cause of the joint defense force. The old Terran chancellor is shot and replaced by his lieutenant, and a new phase of battle begins. Unlike his predecessor, the new chancellor will fight terror with terror. Meanwhile, Martian Special Forces Colonel J.J. Condorcet IV has a new trick up his sleeve: penetrate the enemy capital with his covert forces, and try to persuade EVG Major Pearl to join his suicide mission!
