Superman: The Legacy of Superman #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Guardians of Metropolis!", Gangbuster faces a sudden threat to his reputation when former criminals he’s imprisoned begin pressing charges, forcing him to reconsider his role in Metropolis. Written by Jerry Ordway and illustrated by Dennis Janke, with inks by Mike Machlan and colors by Glenn Whitmore, this 1993 issue captures the tension of justice under scrutiny. The cover, by Arthur Adams, sets the tone with a striking, dynamic image of the city’s protector at a crossroads.
Gangbuster, still feeling the weight of his past actions, receives a warning from Inspector Bill Henderson that the criminals he once brought down are now turning the tables—pressing charges and forcing him to flee Suicide Slum before the law comes for him. With his reputation on the line and his next move uncertain, he must decide whether to run or face the consequences head-on.
