NEW CRUSADERS: RISE OF THE HEROES (TPB)
Our world demands heroes – a new generation must RISE! For the first time anywhere, the complete, critically acclaimed “NEW CRUSADERS: RISE OF THE HEROES” story arc is collected in a Graphic Novel – featuring special behind-the-scenes features and creator interviews! Over a decade ago, the super hero team known as The Mighty Crusaders did the impossible: they won. Successful in their battle against evil and finding they’d made the world a better place, the heroes moved to the small town of Red Circle to start families, unwind, and take a much-deserved rest. When the town is rocked by the return of the ultimate evil, its super hero residents are obliterated! It’s up to their heirs to fight for justice and crusade against evil. They are our last, best hope. They are: THE NEW CRUSADERS!
