The Ravagers #1

Spinning out of the pages of Teen Titans as part of DC's New 52, The Ravagers #1 launches in 2012 with a premise written right on the cover: these young super-powered outcasts — Fairchild, Terra, Lightning, Ridge, Thunder, and Beast Boy — were trained to be killers, and now they're asking whether they can become something more. Ian Churchill's cover renders the full ensemble in a dynamic, snow-swept rush, with Fairchild leading the charge in the foreground while her teammates surge behind her in a burst of powers and attitude. Writer Howard Mackie sets the stage for what looks to be a compelling redemption story for a team with plenty of reasons to fight — and just as many reasons to distrust the world around them.
