The issue had a few more variant covers on top of the above.
Plus the main cover.

…what transpired in the first four issues of this series.
Hailee and Henry are either guests are prisoners of the forces at the NORAD base while Geiger is definitely a prisoner.
Turns out that while a prisoner, the physicians too out his cooling rods which then allowed him to power up and…
…escape; evening getting a new book out of the adventure.
Elsewhere, Hailee is advised her brother has cancer, but won’t be treated; nonetheless they have a compassionate palliative care program for him instead.
She tries to escape despite being a guest…
…as Geiger and Barney…
…are ready for their escape with the kids.
The book ends with the tease of a robot named Joe; is this the Junkyard Joe who will star in Geoff Johns and Gary Franks next series for Mad Ghost?
