Socialist Red Guardsman

A product of DC's ambitious weekly epic 52, Socialist Red Guardsman burst onto the Modern Age scene in 2006 under the formidable creative team of Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Keith Giffen, and Joe Bennett — a pedigree that signals this character was built for a world-shaking story. Sharing pages with titans like Green Lantern, Batman, and Wonder Woman, Socialist Red Guardsman occupies a corner of the 52 universe that stretches DC's mythology into bold new international territory. With only a handful of catalogued appearances, this is very much a rare find — the kind of deep-cut character that rewards readers who dove headfirst into one of the most ambitious publishing experiments DC has ever attempted.
