It’s Independence Day in the USA, and the ComicsAlliance staff has the day  off. As such, here’s a special encore showing from last year’s gallery of especially  patriotic superhero art to honor the Fourth of July. Check out  after the jump some excellent pin-ups of your favorite superheroes in the red,  white and blue (and sometimes yellow – somehow it works) — including Superman, Captain America and the Strong Female Characters — and enjoy your holiday.
