A SUPERHERO LEGACY IS BORN! In one of history's greatest battles against the forces of evil, The Mighty Crusaders did the impossible: they won. Now, for the first time ever, witness their heroic battle for the fate of the world like never before in this unique graphic novel collection from Red Circle Comics!
Using an innovative blend of NEW and CLASSIC material, New Crusaders: Legacy takes readers on a tour of the Red Circle universe, guided by the characters themselves!

The Shield teaches these New Crusaders about the early history of their parents, the Mighty Crusaders, seen by the reader in the form of some of the best classic tales from the 1980s Red Circle superhero titles.
