He has wings growing from his back, and he is in captivity, deep in the caves of the terrorist-superhero Doomsman. And worse, the five superchildren sent by the Prophet to bust him out, are themselves cap-tive. But a fell and terrible spirit awakes in Cherubim, and new powers rise within him, and he rouses the Prophet with winged words, rousting the old priest from his foolish policy of secret refuge and covert resistence to the government persecution of supers. Sooner or later, either he must make war, or they will smoke him out. Now the Prophet and the Doomsman must draw swords together, as the great War of the Prophet opens.
