Ghost / Batgirl #1

This 2000 Dark Horse/DC crossover brings together two of comics' most compelling heroines for a story subtitled "The Resurrection Engine Part One" — a title that promises something suitably eerie and high-stakes. Ryan Benjamin's cover sets an arresting tone: Ghost looms in the foreground in her white hood and corset, pistol raised and expression fierce, while Batgirl crouches in a darkly gleaming suit behind her against a moody, bat-scattered cityscape. Writer Mike Kennedy and artist Benjamin make a promising creative team for a crossover that wastes no time announcing itself as atmospheric and action-charged.
