Published May 1995 at $1.95 US, this Direct Sales edition carries the classic DC bullet logo and a cover by Wagner and Lieber that leans fully into the kinetic chaos of two aerial powerhouses sharing the same airspace for the first time.

Loebs writes the dynamic with genuine tension: two characters who share a power set but nothing else, forced into the same sky. Steve Lieber's linework gives the storm sequence real weight, and the Wagner \u0026amp; Lieber cover is one of the stronger entries in the run — all motion lines, lightning, and barely-controlled velocity.
