Background
When teenage runaways Tandy Bowen and Tyrone Johnson were exposed to an experimental drug against their will, they unexpectedly gained extraordinary powers. Tandy generates piercing blades of pure, healing light, while Ty can teleport himself and others through the Darkforce Dimension. Together, they illuminate New York's deepest shadows as Cloak and Dagger.
The Timestream Entanglement struck while Cloak and Dagger were traversing the Darkforce Dimension. The pair emerged to find New York under the control of Dracula. They soon joined the heroic resistance fighting against the Empire of Eternal Night.
However their battle did not end there, as not long after Dracula's defeat they were invited to the Hellfire Gala... and soon after joined the battle against Knull's malevolent symbiotes as well. During their battle on Klyntar, Dagger became infused with the Phoenix Force while Cloak absorbed Necro-Power.
