Captain Planet and the Planeteers #7

The cover says it all — Captain Planet soars front and center while the Planeteers clash in a full-scale brawl against a villainous crew armed with guns and attitude, with elemental energy crackling between the two sides. Promising "all-out eco-action," this April 1992 Marvel issue brings writer Barry Dutter and artist Pat Broderick together for a story titled "Hope Springs Eternal" — a fitting rallying cry for Earth's young defenders. It's a lively, action-packed chapter in the series, and the reminder that "the power is yours" on the cover corner box keeps the spirit of the show very much alive on the page.
