Synopsis
 
 
Charles and Royal Williams are two children from the Bakerville district of Astro City. In this issue, they witness the recently formed Honor Guard in their first battle with PYRAMID agents after their attempted to kidnap the Mercury astronauts. When the boys leave the scene, they are approached by the Black Badge. The Black Badge witnessed Charles stealing an apple from a local grocer and so, gives the boys a lecture on what it means to be a good member of the community. He then asks the boys to fetch the police in order to make sure two unconscious agents of Pyramid are apprehended, before setting out to capture additional members of Pyramid that had scattered after the battle.
 
 
While at home, Charles and Royal's father mentions that things are beginning to change, and although he says these words often, given the events experienced by the boys, they begin to believe him.
 
 
The issue ends with agents of Pyramid rappelling from a rotor-craft onto the roof above the Williams' apartment.
