Squadron Supreme

Marvel's 1997 Squadron Supreme series, a single-issue project by writer Mark Gruenwald and artist Bob Hall, caps the storyline of the Squadron Supreme—a team of Marvel analogues for DC's Justice League—after their earlier, acclaimed limited series. This issue follows the fallout of their authoritarian rule over Earth, exploring the consequences of their utopian ambitions. A concise, character-driven coda, it matters as a final chapter to one of Marvel's most thoughtful deconstructions of superhero morality.
