“Up Is Down”

In "Up Is Down," the Initiative's mission spirals into chaos as Osborn and the Hood hijack the program, turning it into a front for villains posing as heroes. With the real heroes fighting to reclaim control, the line between ally and enemy blurs in this tense, high-stakes chapter written by Christos N. Gage and illustrated by Rafa Sandoval, with inks by Roger Bonet and colors by Edgar Delgado. The cover by Matteo De Longis captures the twisted inversion at the heart of the story.
