The epic sci-fi cult favorite sensation of the '80s is collected in a single hardcover! A savage alien race called the horde has invaded Earth, enslaving its people and plundering its resources. Scientists have devised a method of fighting back: the Morituri process, which grants enhanced abilities to a select few compatible humans - but the transformation is fatal within a year. Now, a handful of brave volunteers make up Strikeforce: Morituri - an elite, experimental and highly effective fighting force against the horde's depredations. But the heat of every battle, the celebration of every victory and every quiet moment alone is tainted by the inescapable knowledge that - win or lose - their fate is sealed! The war against the Horde will be filled with monstrous twists and turns - but when it's finally over, will mankind prove victorious? And where will that leave the surviving members of Strikeforce: Morituri? COLLECTING: Strikeforce: Morituri (1986) 1-31, Strikeforce: Morituri - Electric Undert
