THE RED CIRCLE: THE HANGMAN #1
Written by J. Michael Straczynski
Art by Tom Derenick & Bill Sienkiewicz
Cover by Jesus Saiz

The Civil War claimed many lives...but one of those lives still
hasn’t ended! Union doctor Robert Dickering found himself on the wrong
side of the battle lines, and despite his heroic treatment of a fallen
enemy soldier, he also found himself on the wrong end of a noose! But a
shadowy power stepped forth in the twilit moments between life and
death and offered him a deal he couldn’t refuse: to forever roam the
Earth, saving the lives of innocents condemned like himself – or
hastening the deaths of the guilty! But in taking the seemingly
righteous mission of the Hangman, has he accepted God’s work? Or has he
become the vengeful fist of the Devil himself? Featuring art by Tom
Derenick and Bill Sienkiewicz, the acclaimed team behind REIGN IN HELL!

THE RED CIRCLE: INFERNO #1
Written by J. Michael Straczynski
Art by Greg Scott
Cover by Jesus Saiz

The mysterious stranger was brought into the hospital with one name
on his lips: “Frank Verrano.” He has no memory of who he was, where he
came from, or how he could possibly be the only survivor of a bombing
attack on a cruise liner that killed hundreds of people. But as deep as
that mystery runs, a violent attack on the hospital opens a deeper one.
How can this man burst into flames...and survive? And why does the man
who stands in those flames, the man know as the Inferno, look nothing
like the one who stood in his place just seconds before? Blaze into
this thrilling issue featuring art by Greg Scott (GOTHAM CENTRAL)!

THE RED CIRCLE: THE WEB #1
Written by J. Michael Straczynski
Art by Roger Robinson & Hilary Barta
Cover by Jesus Saiz

Billionaire John Raymond has it all – fame, fortune, and a
brilliant mind! He also has a brother with the one trait John lacks:
compassion. No matter how relentlessly awe-inspiring John’s
achievements get, it’s his brother who’s always seen as the hero. So
John sets out to upstage his brother one more time. He’ll show the
world just how much heroism money can buy as the amazing (and
suspiciously well-equipped) Web. But when a dark fate arrives for his
brother, John learns first-hand what a hero leaves on the line, and
that there are worse losses than the ones that hit your checkbook!
Featuring art by Roger Robinson (THE BRAVE & THE BOLD, BATMAN:
GOTHAM KNIGHTS)!

THE RED CIRCLE: THE SHIELD #1
Written by J. Michael Straczynski
Art by Scott McDaniel & Andy Owens
Cover by Jesus Saiz

Lieutenant Joe Higgins was dying in the dirt of a battlefield in
Afghanistan when they whisked him away to a top-secret facility and
saved his life with nanotechnology so experimental they couldn’t dare
to use it on a living man. Now Higgins has been enlisted to a whole new
mission – to be the public face of the American fighting man as the
patriotic Shield! But today’s grueling military battles test the limits
of patriotism and the limits of the technology that keeps him alive.
And the shocking secret behind that technology may be too much for his
bullet-riddled heart to bear. Featuring art from Marco Rudy (FINAL
CRISIS)!
