“Growing up as the son of Master Sergeant John H. Sands, I learned early on that there was a commonality between those who wore costumes in comics and those men and women I saw every day in uniform. I came to know that the same people that we passed in the commissary actually possessed a superpower: bravery. If called upon, they were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to uphold those self-evident truths that our country was founded upon
Super Soldiers shines a spotlight on several beloved comic book superheroes (and a few villains) who were once counted among the ranks of the US armed forces. Jason’s prose informs who these characters are to a great degree and in many cases, why they’ve endured for decades.”
—Ryan Sands, artist/actor on Marvel’s Runaways
