The Freedom Fighters had their own book for 15 issues from 1976 to 1978, in which they crossed over to Earth-1 and were quickly set up by the Silver Ghost. They spend the rest of the series on the run from the law, unable to clear themselves. The series was cancelled before the storyline concluded; it was intended to be completed in issues #16-18 of "Secret Society of Super Villains", but that series, too, was cancelled before the story could be published. This series also introduced the Crusaders and reintroduced Firebrand.
