About the series
In 2003, DC Comics launched Human Defense Corps, a six-issue miniseries that reframes the superhero universe through the eyes of ordinary soldiers. Written by Ty Templeton and featuring art by Clément Sauvé, Jr., Clément Sauvé, and Norm Breyfogle, the series follows a military unit tasked with handling extraterrestrial and metahuman threats—the grunts on the ground in a world of gods and monsters. It offers a grounded, boots-on-the-ground perspective on the chaos of the DC Universe, exploring the courage and cost of fighting battles that rarely make the headlines.
