The Crossbreed: Kicking Ass for Jesus

When doing the previous post, I was deeply disappointed in my fellow comic book nerds that there was no webiste for the Crossbreed. Granted, they were second string characters in 2 or 3 issues of Astro City, a series jammed with passing mentions of B-grade superheroes. All the same, it surprised me that the most openly Christian super-team in comic book history -- with Biblical names and everything -- didn't have more of a following. Seriously, they're like if the X-Men started street preaching in their spare time. What's not to love?

Well, now they have at least one decent picture on the Web, which by the way is from Confession, the second volume in the always awesome Astro City series.
