Common Grounds #4
"Time of Their Lives" brings the legendary Liberty Balance back together for their 30th reunion in Common Grounds #4, a heartfelt gathering where old bonds are rekindled and quiet emotions stir beneath the surface. Written by Troy Hickman and illustrated with precision by George Pérez, the issue unfolds with warmth and nostalgia, set against the backdrop of a celebration hosted by the Common Grounds franchise. The cover, by Rodolfo Migliari, captures the moment with quiet elegance.
In "Time of Their Lives," former foes Commander Power and Blackwatch cross paths again—this time not as adversaries, but as two men shaped by a shared past. A chance encounter outside a Common Grounds in Ohio brings them together in quiet conversation, where one’s struggles and the other’s attempt to help reveal the weight of what they’ve both left behind.
In "Fat Chance," five larger-than-life heroes from the Common Grounds universe gather at their favorite café, trading stories and strategies as they tackle the real-world challenges that come with their size—challenges that are starting to weigh down their heroic efforts. Written by a team known for sharp, character-driven stories, the art captures the warmth and humor of their shared struggle with honesty and heart.
In "Glory Days," the legendary Liberty Balance gathers for their 30th reunion, where past camaraderie and quiet longings resurface beneath the buzz of nostalgia. As former teammates reconnect over Common Grounds' catering, old bonds are tested and a long-held affection stirs anew—without a single power surge in sight.
