Firestorm Annual (Volume 2) #5 is an issue of the series Firestorm Annual (Volume 2) with a cover date of October, 1987.
Synopsis for "Ground Zero"
The Russians and Americans are both after Firestorm while the Justice League and the Suicide Squad are battling each other in New York City in an attempt to apprehend him. Eventually Firestorm manages to escape to the Nevada desert where he is attacked by the Russian nuclear man, Pozhar. However, Pozhar battles Firestorm reluctantly because the Russian government has his family captive and he fears they we be harmed if he does not capture Firestorm. As the two battle, the Americans launch a nuclear weapon at them in an attempt to destroy them both. The resulting blast does not kill them but instead fuses the Firestorm entity of Ronnie Raymond and Prof. Martin Stein with Pozhar (Mikhail Arkardin) creating an all-new Firestorm Matrix.
