Squadron Supreme

In this 2008–2009 Marvel series, writer Howard Chaykin reimagines the Squadron Supreme—a super-team of familiar archetypes—as a fractured, morally compromised force in a world that no longer trusts them. With art by Marco Turini, Marco Checchetto, and Kevin Sharpe across its 12 issues, the story explores the consequences of power unchecked, blending political intrigue with superhero action. It stands as a sharp, character-driven take on the classic team, offering a gritty contrast to Marvel’s more heroic narratives.
