Issue 16: Nathan learns that Brent's mom has just begun to date the Vice-Principle of his school, Mr. Davidson. Nathan meets him and he seems like a nice guy.

With the disappearance of Little Princess, gangs begin to war for control.

Arranging a visit with the hospitalized Major Mapleleaf, Thunder thwarts an attempted hit on the old man by an unlikely alliance of bikers and both oriental and black youth gang members.

A publicity event is held at the Skydome to promote Thunder, beginning with a press conference, leading into a public display of Thunder's powers and capabilities, and ending with an autograph signing session. Under the advisement of Mr.White Thunder keeps his answers short and to the point, allowing the Ministry (of Defence) PR rep. to handle the brunt of the questions. He also lies regarding the timing of Little Princesses take over of him ... saying, in accordance with government coaching, that the "take-over" occurred the same night Major Mapleleaf was kidnapped, and thus covering his actions regarding the young bully and reporter he manhandled in the schoolyard.

Nathan got tickets to the event for both Brent and Susan, and while very appreciative, they ended up trading them in so that Mr. Davidson could join them and they all could sit together. Still, with this exception, the event was a stunning succes and did much for Thunder and his public image.
