Gamma Flight #5

The five-issue Gamma Flight limited series reaches its crescendo here, with the cover by Leinil Francis Yu throwing the whole team into a brutal clash against the towering Abomination — and the cover even promises an "Epic Final Fight" to make sure you know the stakes are real. A red-haired gamma powerhouse, a chain-bound brawler sporting a star emblem, a hooded figure in blue, and a woman in a lab coat wielding a glowing object all converge against the snarling, reptilian giant looming over them. Al Ewing and Crystal Frasier's story, titled "We Were Transformed," sounds like exactly the kind of earned, character-driven payoff this scrappy team of gamma-powered outcasts deserves.
