It began before that, with an explosion in the sky.
Colonel Steve Austin fell. He lost his legs, his arm, his eye.
He gained faster, better, stronger replacements- had gained, because that'd already happened.
He thought he was reliving that in dreams again- except the voice in his head said he wasn't.
He woke up, wondering who that was.

(Now that's taking advantage of your medium.)

(You really couldn't make this work in any medium where not maintaining a continuous or close view on the action would make it look jumpy or indistinct.)

Steve ended up safe back at OSI headquarters, repaired and having retrieved a ledger for the DEA.
After that, there was Steve ruminating on his seeming loss of humanity that came with his gain in cybernetics, the introduction of a mysterious new part of OSI (with the just-as-shady-but-more-familiar Seven Million Dollar Man, Barney Hiller, in tow), the voice in Steve's head directing him to discover OSI's failed previous tries at cybernetic reconstruction and the ominous-sounding " Project: Good Soldier " in which they were rooted, his consequently becoming a fugitive from OSI, his running into vengeful Yakuza ninjas with titanium weapons, and then a Fortune 500 tech CEO with laser eyes.
And that's where the first issue ended.
