Southern Knights was a comic book created by Henry Vogel and published by Comics Interview. It chronicled the adventures of a superhero team based on Atlanta, Georgia. Known as "the Crusaders" in their 1st issue, they were renamed the Southern Knights afterwards due to Archie Comics' Red Circle Imprint having their own group called The Mighty Crusaders. They were called "The #1 Super Team of the South".
Members include:
- Electrode - David Shenk. A scientist whose love of comics caused him to give himself super-powers. Can generate electricity--up to and including lightning bolts--and can fly.
- Connie - Connie Ronnin. A former Olympic fencing silver-medalist. She can create a 'psychic sword' which can cause people struck by it to react as though it were a real sword, but leaves no lasting damage. Her sword can bypass armor as though it wasn't there.
- Kristin- Kristin Austin. A petite graduate of Clemson University who is strong enough to destroy a tank and tough enough to withstand at least .50 cal. machine gun rounds.
- Dragon - Moranderin/Mark Dagon. The last of the dragons. After his mate and child were slain by men, he found that he could take on the form of a human male. After having his revenge on the slayers of his family he wandered the world for a thousand years until meeting up with the Knights. In dragon form he is immensely strong and tough, can fly and breath fire. In human form he is no tougher or stronger than a normal human.
- Aramis - Aramis Merrow. A young sorceror from the 17th century who was placed in suspended animation by his parents when their coven was attacked by witch hunters. He was awakened by Kristin while she was exploring the new house the team had moved into. His magical powers allow him to do almost anything. Flying, scrying, summoning illusions, protecting himself and others with mystical shields, and firing bolts of magical energy. His major weakness is trying to adjust to modern-day life.
