Summary:
An ECO Patrol relentlessly pursues a man into the sewers. When the man pulls a gun, the ECO Patrol eliminates him without prejudice. The patrol reports in to their commander, Paul-Phillip Ravage, who is furious that yet another polluter has been killed before being questioned. Paul-Phillip decides that he must alert Alchemax of his suspicion that there is a traitor in the ECO hierarchy. Tiana, his assistant, warns him not to. She tells him of how her own father tried to do the same and ended up being sent to Hellrock. Later, Paul-Phillip is travelling to Alchemax and is assaulted by a group of teenagers. He easily fights them off but grabs hold of one of them, Dack. He accuses Ravage of being a killer. When Paul-Phillip demands an explanation he learns that the polluter was Dack’s father. Dack tells Paul-Phillip that his father was not a polluter, but he did know who was polluting and was going to ECO to tell the truth. That is why Dack believes Paul-Phillip had him killed. Paul-Phillip denies that he ordered him killed and takes the boy with him to Alcehmax. At Alchemax HQ, Paul-Phillip meets with Anderthorp Henton, Director-General who reassures Paul-Phillip that he will investigate the matter. Henton immediately informs the other directors of the corporation that Paul-Phillip must be eliminated. Eavesdropping on the conversation, Tiana rushes to Paul-Phillip to warn him, but it’s too late. Henton has dispatched a Mutroid. Bursting into his office, the Mutroid accuses Paul-Phillip publically of aiding the Mutroids of Hellrock to pollute the world. With his reputation tarnished Paul-Phillip escapes ECO central with Tiana and meet up with Dack. Ravage (having now discarded his first name) visits a junkyard to assemble a new uniform. Along the way he takes possession of a derelict garbage truck. Elsewhere, on the island of Hellrock, the Seeress informs her master, DethStryk, that she has had a vision of Ravage, the man destined to be his greatest foe.

Notes:

• Tiana’s father was an agent of ECO who was exiled to Hellrock. His fate is revealed in #30.

• Apparently they still have phone books in 2099 (curious that they still call them ‘books’). Presumably it lists everyone, even minors like Dack. Although it is possible that on the way to Alchemax HQ Dack told Ravage his father’s full name and that is who he searched for.

• In 2099 cars are all made of plastic.

Title – This Madness Unleashed!
Writer – Stan Lee
Art – Paul Ryan

Summary:
On the isle of Hellrock, a mutroid named Stormer challenges Dethstryk’s leadership. The lord of Hellrock easily defeats him and reminds everyone that the time when mutroids will destroy all normals' is coming soon. Elsewhere, Ravage raids Public Eye officers for supplies and weapons. He also breaks into a weapons store and steals a prototype Kevlar which he then sews into the lining of his coat. After digging an underground ramp to hide his truck, Ravage goes to visit Tiana and Dack. After being in hiding for so long, Tiana insists on getting out for a while. Ravage and Dack accompany her. The three of them are quickly found by Alchemax forces that wound Dack and capture Tiana. On board the Alchemax craft, Tiana is given an anti-radiation suit to wear. She is being taken to Hellrock.

Issue - Doom 2099 #8

Writer - John Francis Moore

Art - Pat Broderick

Notes:

• Cameo by Ravage, Tiana, and Dack

Placement:

Although this issue of Doom 2099 was published much later, I place it here because if we go by cover dates, Ravage should be in the process of turning into his Beast-Man form when this issue hit the stands. There isn't a big window for a scene featuring Ravage, Tiana, Dack, and [most importantly] the garbage truck! Though the truck makes an additional appearance in issue #3, they are not together at that point. The next time the three of them meet, Ravage is driving the dis-used fantastic-car. So this brief cameo fits nicely during the events of #2. This scene could easily be part of when the Tiana leaves to get some air, right before she's captured at the end of the issue.

Issue - 3

Title – Horror in Hellrock
Writer – Stan Lee
Art – Paul Ryan

Summary:
A disguised Ravage visits Dack at the hospital. Confirming that he’s being well cared for, he tells Dack that he plans to go after Tiana who has been taken to Hellrock. However Ravage is soon discovered and is forced to make a quick escape from the hospital. Later, Ravage arrives on Hellrock by sneaking onto a supply vessel making its monthly drop at the island. Ravage draws Deathstryk out by attacking mutroids left and right. Deathstryk's reprisal is to give Tiana over to Ravage, but not before ripping her protective suit off and leaving her susceptible to the island's mutating atmosphere. Ravage and Tiana quickly run and hide from the mutroids which are hunting them. Ravage makes Tiana put on his own protective suit and sends her off the island aboard the supply vessal which brought him. With Tiana safe, Ravage returns to fight Deathstryk. The Lord of Hellrock offers Ravage a choice, death by his touch or death by the radiation which has already begun to change his body. Ravage runs, opting to take the chance that he will survive and come back to kill Deathstryk as a mutroid.

Notes:

• Stan Lee (or is it Stan Lee 2099?) makes a cameo on page 3.

• Final appearance of the Ravage's garbage truck.

However this revelation only angers Ravage and he begins to destroy Ursell's lab. Eventually Ursell calms him and gives him molecular gloves which can contain his power for an hour at a time. The lab is suddenly attack by Mutroids, drawn by the light of Ravage's previous outburst. Elsewhere on Hellrock, the Seeress informs Dethstryk that Ravage lives and is more powerful then ever. Back in Nueva York, Tiana breaks Dack out of the Alchemax hospital. Meanwhile, below the ocean, DragonKlaw and his New Atlanteans continue their experiments to become air-breathers. After so many failures, Dragonklaw orders for human subjects to be taken from the surface. His Atlanteans target the recently escaped Tiana and Dack. Back on Hellrock, Ravage and Ursell are surrounded by Mutroids. Ursell tells Ravage to take off his gloves, resulting in a enormous release of energy which defeats all but one of the Mutroids. It also causes the cavern where they were fighting to cave in on itself.

Notes:

• Cameo by Spider-Man 2099

• This is the first appearance of New Atlantis. This sect of Atlanteans are lobster-like and seem to bear no relation to the genetically engineered slaves which are later seen in Spider-Man 2099 #43 - 44.

Title – Bio-Crash!

Writer – Pat Mills & Tony Skinner
Art – Jose Delbo

Summary:

The power source of Ravage's craft finally gives out and it crashes him, Dack and Tiana in the decred section of the city, the barrio. The three of them are taken in by Barrio Man and his community. While resting, Ravage's physical appearance begins to mutate. No longer giving off energy, Ravage begins to grow razor sharp nails and sprout horns on his head. Barrio Man tells Ravage that such transformations are recorded in the Codex Heroica. Ravage's body is reverting to a primal form dating back to before man evolved into primates. Barrio Man explains that the changes he is experiencing are part of a greater destiny. Soon after, Dack chooses to stay and live in the barrio. Tiana also parts ways with Ravage, feeling that she must find her own way and not play second string to Ravage's heroics. Elsewhere, Ravage's recent activities is being discussed by his brother, John Claude, and his father. After their meeting, John Claude is surprised to find his dog has followed him to his office. Suddenly the dog transforms into monster which quickly kills John Claude and assumes his shape. Back in the Barrio, Ravage's final transformation takes place just as ECO troops are sent in to raid a local wedding for decreds to be shipped to Hellrock.

Notes:

• Ravage led the Green Berets in Pollution Wars. The conflict shifted world power from elected governments to the giant trans-national corporations which rule in 2099. Alchemax, Stark-Fuji-Kawa, and Synthia together formed the Confederation of World Industries. Together they fought in the war against the Confederation of Constitutional Governments, an alliance of nations funded by national companies. The trans-corporations labeled national companies as polluters and promised a greener future.

• First appearance of John Claude Ravage (Ravage's brother)

• First appearance of Wes Ravage (Ravage's father)

• First appearance of Alec DuPledge

• Hellrock's formal designation is Biozone One.

Title – Rebirth of the Beast

Writer – Pat Mills & Tony Skinner
Art – Grant Miehm

Summary:

A newly transformed/reborn Ravage saves a pair of barrio dwellers from being killed by ECO police. Nearby, more ECO police attack a wedding ceremony officiated by the Barrio Man and capture all of the attendees. Ravage chases and attacks the vehicle where they are transporting the prisoners. In the process of freeing the the Barrio dwellers, Ravage kills all the ECO troops except one, Alec DuPledge. Ravage remembers they served together in the Pollution Wars and cannot bring himself to kill his former comrade. Elsewhere, Henton arranges the death of a Stark-Fukikawa defector by using alien technology. Small insect-like devices called Sensoids assume the form of any they are programmed to look like. Being of alien origin, they are pre-programmed with images of creatures from across the galaxy. Henton has the Sensoids pose at first as a loved one of the victim before transforming into a alien form which kills its intended target. Later, after reverting to his human form, Ravage visits the office of his family's company, Green Globe. Ravage wants to give the information he acquired on Henton's disc to Green Globe so they can use it against Alchemax. He meets his brother, John Claude in his office. However after handing over the disc, Ravage instantly senses that he is dealing with an imposter. Ravage rushes out of the office and follows his brother's scent and discovers that he's dead, and his body disposed of. The imposter, a Sensoid, changes and assumes the form of an alien monster.

Notes:

• "Unauthorized breeding results in authorized extermination" whereas "conspiracy to breed without a permit" gets you 20 years on Hellrock. This implies that Hellrock is used as a prison, or perhaps a zone for exiles. Though I seriously doubt anyone was ever brought back from Hellrock after their sentence was up.

Issue - 11

Title – The Stigmata Effect

Writer – Pat Mills & Tony Skinner
Art – Grant Miehm

Summary:

After changing into the shape of an alien creature, the Sensoid and Ravage engage in a fierce battle across the offices of Green Globe. Ravage's animal instincts tell him that what he is fighting isn't real. Relaxing, the alien disappears. Ravage quickly sees the Sensoid's true miniscule form and catches it in his hand. When the Sensoid takes on the form of Tiana, Ravage realizes that it's reading his mind and destroys it. Pulling his brother's body from the garbage chute, Ravage returns to John Claude's office only to be discovered by his father and sister. While at first doubtful of Ravage's explanation of what happened, forensic evidence clears him of any involvement in John Claude's death. After revealing to his father that he has a data disc of Alchemax's secrets, his father decides to make Ravage head of Green Globe. Meanwhile, Avatarr holds a meeting with Tyler Stone, Fearmaster, and Anderthorp Henton to discuss the growing super-hero problem. His plan is to create his own pantheon of heroes based on the beliefs of the Church of Thor. Before ending the meeting, Avatarr addresses the failures of Fearmaster and Henton to deal with their respective hero problems. Avatarr has Henton killed. He then crushes Fearmaster's hand and promotes him to head of ECO.

Writer – Pat Mills & Tony Skinner
Art – Grant Miehm

Summary:

On the streets of Nueva York, a primeval hunter is stalking and murdering people. His appearance similar to Ravage, leads the Public Eye to believe they are one and the same. Instead of hunting for the other beast, Ravage decides to show the public his real character through action. He chooses to attack and kill a manager of a Synthia sky plantation. The company's sky plantations are killing the remaining rain forests. By attacking a polluter of the planet, Ravage has "made his mark" in difference to the other beast's random and merciless killing. Unknown to him however, his sister Miranda and Dupledge are plotting to have him committed to an asylum by charging him with "passive neurosis" that is affecting others at Green Globe. Once committed, Miranda intends to take over the company. Meanwhile, at the New Bethlehem Asylum, Dr. Rudolf Menkel mistreats his patients. Mostly all suffering from identity fragmentation, which manifests itself physically, Menkel delights in torturing and experimenting on his patients. Menkel believes that toxins trigger physical changes that can result in regressions to earlier forms of man. He believes [rightly so] "the beast" is a result of someone being exposed to toxicity. Unknown to anyone, he too has been exposed and is the mysterious other beast-man who has been on a killing spree.

Notes:

• Cameo by Jake Gallows - Punisher 2099

• The Bible verse Dr. Menkal references as his password is "Come now, let us kill him and throw him into one of the pits. Then we will say that a fierce animal has devoured him, and we will see what will become of his dreams.”"
