The Crusaders #5

Issue five of DC's Impact Comics imprint raises the stakes with a cover question that's hard to ignore: will the Crusaders' very first mission also be their last? Chuck Wojtkiewicz's pencils (inked by Mike Netzer) deliver a scene of dramatic battlefield chaos — armored military vehicles engulfed in roaring flames and billowing black smoke, with the team's distinctive insignia visible amid the wreckage. It's a tense, fiery image that sets up "Childhood's End: Part 1" with genuine urgency, promising serious consequences for this young super-team.
