Outsiders #0

"From the Ashes" kicks off the Outsiders #0 (1994) with a high-stakes mission that brings together Eradicator, Halo, and Looker in a tense operation against gunrunners. When their search leads them to a hidden cage holding Wylde and a strange energy pulse from a gun clip, they uncover a far greater threat: a primal alien race using Earth as a foothold. The chaos draws the attention of a second Outsiders team—Geo-Force, Katana, and Technocrat—setting the stage for a clash of forces. Written by Mike W. Barr and illustrated by Paul Pelletier, with inks by Robert Campanella, colors by Tom McCraw, and letters by Kevin Cunningham, the cover by Pelletier and Campanella captures the series’ dark, urgent tone.
