The Brave and the Bold #17

In "Fathers..., Part 1: Past Tense," Supergirl confronts haunting visions of her father’s command to kill baby Kal-El, leading her to seek refuge with Raven. Taken to Azarath, the dimension of her mentor’s upbringing, Supergirl undergoes a healing trance under the care of monks Daran and Rennik. Meanwhile, Raven detects a growing crisis at a Sausalito campus, where a flame-wielding youth named Jonathan Mitchell has turned violent, targeting science labs he believes are tied to a nuclear-powered weapons program. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by Phil Winslade, with colors by Chris Chuckry and letters by Rob Leigh, this issue’s cover by Phil Winslade captures the tension between past trauma and present danger.
