PLANETARY (1999) #8, [VF/NM (9.0)]

In the American desert, a woman waits patiently, glowing gently in the gathering twilight. She's been waiting a long time to tell her story; and now, finally, Planetary is coming for her. She is the last surviving remnant of a covert program that ran throughout the 1950s, an attempt to create darkly wondrous things that would defend America from a Communist invasion ? a program developed by a name very familiar to Planetary.
