DC Comics has released a preview for the first issue of its Freedom Fighters ongoing series.
Written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray with art by Travis Moore, it sees the Golden Age heroes make their return to the DC Universe.
The book's solicitation reads: "A national mystery unfolds when the government learns of the existence of a Confederate super weapon intended to insure the South won the Civil War. Who built it and why wasn’t it used?
"Find out when Uncle Sam leads the team on a quest through the hidden history of the United States! With new challenges and old threats returning to plague them, the stakes are higher than ever. Can even these stalwart heroes stand by their duty when their country calls?"
DC acquired the rights to Freedom Fighters from the now defunct Quality Comics. The team made its first appearance in Justice League Of America #107 in 1973.
Freedom Fighters #1 arrives in stores this week.
