The New Guardians #2

Oct 1988 · DC · 1.25 USD; 1.75 CAD; 0.70 GBP
“Blow in the Wind”

In "Blow in the Wind," the New Guardians venture into South America on a high-stakes mission for the CIA, tracking a dangerous drug ring led by Snowflame—a villain whose powers surge with every snort of cocaine. Written by Steve Englehart and Cary Bates, with dynamic art by Joe Staton and inks by Mark Farmer, this 1988 issue blends espionage and superhuman grit, all rendered in bold colors by Anthony Tollin and crisp lettering by John Costanza. The cover, penciled by Staton and inked by Farmer, captures the tension with a striking, shadowed portrait of Snowflame.
