About the series
A single prestige-format one-shot from DC in 1996, Alpha Centurion Special introduces a new hero to the Metropolis mythos: a Roman-themed champion whose origin is tied to an ancient artifact and a modern-day police officer. Written by Barbara Kesel and Stuart Immonen, with art by Dean Zachary, the issue explores what it means to wield power in a city already guarded by Superman. Though it ran for only one issue, the story established a character who would later appear in the wider DC Universe, making it a curious footnote for fans of 1990s DC experimentation.
