Freedom Fighters #3

Part of DC's 1976 Bicentennial celebration, this patriotic team title pits the Freedom Fighters against a villain the cover boldly promises you've never seen the likes of — Skragg the Super Sniper. Dick Giordano's cover captures the confrontation with real urgency: the green-skinned, red-costumed Skragg looms large over a battered Uncle Sam, who defiantly declares "Mister, you just declared war!" while a golden-clad hero and other teammates scramble amid a burst of explosive energy in the background. With a WWII legacy noted right on the cover and a roster of heroes ready to push back, issue #3 is a spirited, action-packed entry in this red-white-and-blue series.
