Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters #7

The penultimate chapter of this eight-issue DC series arrives in March 2007 with a cover by Daniel Acuña that crackles with urgency — a massive, rune-marked crimson entity fires searing energy beams while Uncle Sam, a winged hero, a masked woman in gold and green, and a figure wielding a baton scramble to meet the threat. Written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, "Traitors and Patriots" promises exactly the kind of high-stakes confrontation the title suggests as the team barrels toward its finale. Acuña's rich colors and dynamic staging make this one of the series' most visually striking covers.
