The Archie Adventure line (soon retitled Mighty Comics) included titles centered on The Fly, The Jaguar, and The Shield, a revamped Golden Age character. The success of DC's and Marvel's Silver Age titles led Archie Comics to launch their own superhero comics. This series lasted eight issues, published from May to December, 1992. In 1992 DC Comics licensed the characters and relaunched the team as The Crusaders, aiming the comic at younger readers as part of its !mpact line. The team was revived under Archie's Red Circle Comics line in 1983. Written by Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel, the series lasted seven issues before being cancelled. The team originally appeared in Fly-Man #31, #32 and #33 before being launched in its own title, Mighty Crusaders. The Mighty Crusaders is a fictional superhero team published by Archie Comics. Cover to Mighty Crusaders #1 (November 1965).
