Story: On their final mission for WTNH Channel 8, the New Warriors attacked Cobalt Man, Coldheart, Speedfreek and Nitro who were hiding in a house. During the fight, Nitro detonated himself, killing almost everyone in the area (estimated to 8-900 people) except himself. The death of the New Warriors and all the civilians were a major contribution to what became known as the Civil War [Civil War (vol. 1) #1]. Speedball was presumed to be among the casualties, but he survived [Civil War: Front Line (vol. 1) #1].
