Crossfire

Crossfire is an independent-comics hero from Eclipse, operating in the same interconnected universe as the DNAgents. Created by Mark Evanier and Rick Hoberg, the character shares a world with figures like Jay Endicott and Surge, suggesting a street-level adventurer navigating that ensemble's espionage-tinged milieu.

A Bronze Age original from Eclipse Comics, Crossfire debuted in 1984 courtesy of the creative team of Mark Evanier and Rick Hoberg — a pairing that knew how to craft characters with real personality and staying power. Emerging from the independent comics boom of the mid-eighties, this character shares their world with an eclectic cast including Jay Endicott, Surge, Rainbow, Tank, and Sham, and turns up across titles like The DNAgents, Surge, and Airboy — a sign of the interconnected, ambitious storytelling Eclipse was building during its heyday. For collectors with a soft spot for that scrappy independent era when publishers outside the Big Two were genuinely pushing boundaries, Crossfire is a rewarding piece of that history worth tracking down.
