Description

As a part of working out plots for the Crusaders All-New Adventures covers I, as all good geeks do, started compiling lists of all of Archie's super heroes. You wouldn't know it by looking at the 80's or any of the newer series but they actually have a whole mess of characters. So many so that even including as many as I could in the Crusaders there were still lots left. As the idea of the Crusaders covers was to continue and "expand" the Archie universe it struck me that a companion series, like Marvel Spotlight, would be a perfect way to showcase the rest of their universe. Lots of bad series titles later the obvious hit me and Red Circle Spotlight it was.

One of the cool things about the JSA was how they'd have some characters who'd grow old / retire and new versions would be introduced while some just remained ageless. It's all about picking the "right" characters to keep and which to let go. And so a 2 part story that takes 3 GAers (Bob Phantom, Inferno and War Eagle) and let's them grow old and retire gracefully, letting a new generation take over. Okay, War Eagle is actually a "new" character based on Archie's WWII fighter pilot heroes the War Eagles :) The first story focuses mainly on the original heroes. MC's done some great work for this Crusaders thing and he does so again here. A wonderful Byrne/Adams feel to the heroes here and a perfect sense of scale on Eterno's Megalith robot. Glorious pose on the original Bob Phantom. As always, I hope Crusaders fans approve :)
