The New War
Beginning in #39, A New War, Mack Bolan gets a new identity. Now known as Col. John Phoenix (Retired) he is given a command center in Virginia dubbed "Stony Man Farm". From there he wages war against terrorist organizations throughout the world. Phoenix was chosen to be Bolan's new alias in reference to the mythological bird that would resurrect itself from the ashes of a former life, just as Bolan had done after the events of Executioner #38, Satan's Sabbath.

—George Grosz (1893–1959)
