I bought it because Batman was featured prominently on the cover. This was aroung the time of the big Batman movie craze, and DC was clearly cashing in with the cameos. In fact, I think Batman's name was bigger than Manhunter's right there on the cover.

I bought it because I thought it was a Batman comic. Bastards.

Actually, it was a pretty tight issue. There was one particular 3 panel action sequence that I remember quite vividly to this day.
