    Winter Guard

    After he was sent back to Russia, he enlisted in The Winter Guard, where he was seen battling the Mandarin. When the original Darkstar was killed in battle, Powersurge (along with several other members of the Winter Guard) took their leave.

    Sometime after that, Powersurge was seen with Vanguard and Starlight in a new team dubbed The Protectorate.
