If you had asked me when I was younger which comic would be the one that got me to start buying comics like my life depended on it, Atari Force would not have been my guess. And yet, here we are substack.com/home/post/p-...

Superheroes don't have the luxury of wondering if villains can actually do the things they threaten to do. They must act. Because if they don't, one day, everyone will die. Praetorian's about to find out if today is that day.

Think of the biggest heroes in your life. Now, think of why. It's because they showed up for you when you needed it.
