#182 – The Chaos Bomb – Quiasar informs the Guardians that talks with the vampires on Jorstadt Island have broken down, and the group meets the new Queen of C.H.E.S.S., the former Chinese superhero Feng Shui. In the Beta dimension, Robert Perry and the rebels meet in a Mount Baker, Washington cavern, plotting a massive raid on the C.H.E.S.S. Command Center in Stone Mountain, Georgia. The Queen mystically transports Incandescent, Portal, Titan, Dai Oni-beta, Crocodile, Quiasar, Majestic, Peregrine, USA Defender, and Mischief there, and they meet up with G-Force, Dai Oni, and the rebels. With help from an implanted worm program, they invade the base, clashing with Arachnia, Dark Warp, FORCE, Barbarian, Shadowknight, Toonmaster and multiple Majestic Knights and Motherland Defenders. They sustain many casualties during the fight, but many C.H.E.S.S. opponents are killed, including Meknoid, Caster, Professor Magnesium, and Phase. C.H.E.S.S-alpha sends reinforcements Warp and Xeo Fey, and the heroes begin to gain the upper hand. Dr. Mercury-beta kills Dr. Desist and attempts to slay Dark Warp for mission failure, then offers his alpha doppelganger as a peace offering, but the champions see that he is covered with exposed wires. The evil genius pushes a button, reality warps, and the adventurers begin to merge together, being sucked towards the device on Dr. Mercury-alpha’s waist.
