Legends #4

In "Cry Havoc...!", Darkseid's shadowy scheme to unravel Earth's heroes by weaponizing their legends begins to take terrifying shape, with Godfrey—posing as G. Gordon Godfrey—playing a pivotal role. As the Phantom Stranger watches from the fringes, he delivers a grim warning to Darkseid: though he cannot stop the unfolding chaos, the tyrant underestimates the power of myth itself. Written by John Ostrander and Len Wein, with dynamic art by John Byrne and colors by Carl Gafford, this 1987 issue blends cosmic dread with the weight of legacy, all wrapped in Byrne’s striking cover.
