The Galactic Empire launch a major offensive and the planet had to be evacuated. A young officer, Yang Wen-Li, organized the evacuation while Lynch and the other starship commanders fought off the Imperial onslaught. Lynch's ship was boarded and he was taken as a prisoner of war.

After the failed Free Planets invasion (#12-16), Reinhard talked Lynch into getting revenge for El Facile. You see, Yang was made a hero, but everyone forgot about Lynch. Lynch happily accepted.(Spoiler)
