Ghosts of Yesterday novel

Note: The funny thing? KGB was created March 15, 1954. In 1930s all USSR foreign espionage, counter-espionage and even basic law enforcement were handled by the NKVD, essentially the Ministy of the Interior.

Notes

Note: In the real world, the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, breaking up into its constituent republics. This event was foreseeable to economists when the Generation One animated series was being produced in the mid-nineteen eighties, but not to cartoon writers. Thus the third season of the cartoon, set in the then-future year of 2006, depicted the Soviet Union as still extant. Oh well.

The final issues of Escalation started referring to Russia instead of the Soviet Union. As to why a comic written in 2006 previously called it the Soviet Union and why it was changed? Um, well, we'll get back to you.
