The Mighty Crusaders Special #1

Four heroes stare out from a bold quadrant design on this 2010 DC one-shot, with an American flag, crackling green energy, and dramatic flames framing each intense portrait. The cover by Stanley "Artgerm" Lau gives each member of the Mighty Crusaders their own striking close-up — a masked hero in dark blue, a goggled figure radiating eerie green light, a powerfully built man wreathed in fire, and a brooding figure cloaked in shadow. With four writers — Matthew Sturges, Brandon Jerwa, John Rozum, and Eric S. Trautmann — and artist Javi Pina contributing to "Full Circle," this special feels like a genuine celebration of the team's depth and range.
