Project Superpowers #0

At just one dollar, this 2008 Dynamite Entertainment zero issue is a smart entry point into Project Superpowers, written by Alex Ross and Jim Krueger. Alex Ross's painted cover assembles a striking lineup of golden-age-style heroes — a flame-wreathed figure rising from fire, a dark-clad hero bearing a skull-and-crossbones emblem, a star-spangled figure gripping a gleaming blade, and a red-caped powerhouse in the foreground, with a mysterious green-robed figure looming in the background beneath a bold lightning bolt insignia. It's a confident, atmospheric showcase for a series clearly invested in honoring pulp-era heroism with modern polish.
