Superpatriot: Liberty & Justice #2

The stars-and-stripes trio on Dave Johnson's cover makes a bold statement for this 1995 Image series — Superpatriot charges forward in his red, white, and blue armor wielding a mechanical claw weapon, flanked by a caped patriotic hero and a fiery-haired woman in action above a globe emblazoned with a skull emblem. It's a striking ensemble image that captures the series' blend of superhero spectacle and American iconography. With Tom Bierbaum, Mary Bierbaum, and Keith Giffen sharing writing duties, issue #2 of Liberty & Justice has serious creative firepower behind it.
