    They never asked to become super-heroes. But now that they are, they have no choice but to do what super-heroes do best...risk their lives combating the forces of evil wherever they're found. The Blasters were a group of ordinary men and women...until the events chronicled in the pages of INVASION. Fifty human beings were abducted by the Dominion and left alone in a minefield - a minefield filled with experimental explosives that killed all but seven. These seven joined the ranks of metahumans as detailed in the pages of Invasion (1988 DC) #1. With the war over, some accept their powers and run with them. Others just want to forget and resume normal lives. But you know how those forces of evil can be. So when the Spider Guild reveal themselves in their pursuit of the Omega Men, what choice do these reluctant heroes have? That's why they become The Blasters. And that's where the action begins. Written by Peter David, with art by James W. Fry and Robert Campanella. Cover by Fry and Campanella. 52-page one-shot special. Cover price $2.00.
