Synopsis for "The Dark Side, Part One"
Stormwatch attempt to recruit Apollo, but he is having none of it. Meanwhile, Harry Tanner encounters a giant eyeball creature in a cave on the moon that refers to itself as "the first response to the sounding of the Horn." It tells Harry that something powerful and malevolent is coming and it is tasked with strengthening the targeted worlds to resist it. It attempts to take over Harry's body and use it as a host.
