In "Rogue Hero," Firestorm stands at the center of a global crisis, threatening to detonate a nuclear missile in both the U.S. and Russia unless the superpowers disarm their arsenals. As President Reagan calls in Captain Atom to stop him, the superhero community fractures in response to Firestorm’s radical move. Written by John Ostrander and illustrated by Joe Brozowski, with inks by Dick Giordano and Sam de la Rosa, and colors by Nansi Hoolahan, this 1987 issue captures a tense moment of moral ambiguity and political stakes.
