Union #1

In "Crusade," Union, still finding his footing as a hero in New York, is drawn into a sky-high confrontation when he discovers his childhood friend Serren—originally from the distant planet Aegena—locked in battle against the relentless Crusade. After witnessing Serren’s tragic death at the hands of the mysterious warrior, Union is driven by grief and resolve to pursue justice, setting him on a path of vengeance that will test his limits. Written by Michael Heisler and illustrated by Ryan Benjamin, with inks by Tom McWeeney, colors by Steve Buccellato, Wendy Fouts, and Electric Crayon, and lettering by Bill Oakley, the issue’s cover by Ryan Benjamin and Tom McWeeney captures the intensity of this pivotal moment.
