The Brave and the Bold #18

Raven and Supergirl take center stage in this December 2008 team-up from The Brave and the Bold, with Phil Winslade's cover depicting the two heroines in a dramatic plunging dive above a vast industrial cityscape, a lone figure watching from below. The tagline "The Tragedy of Triumph!" sets an intriguingly somber tone for what promises to be anything but a straightforward victory. Marv Wolfman — the writer who knows these characters deeply — delivers part two of "Fathers… Controls," making this a compelling chapter in an already engaging arc.
