In this chapter, I turn to Mark Gruenwald’s depiction of Nighthawk and his resistance to the Squadron Supreme and its Utopia Program. Specifically, Nighthawk articulates what he perceives as the dangers of the Utopia Program, and this motivates him to lead a rebel movement dubbed the Redeemers. Squadron Supreme appears to show that Nighthawk is fighting on the side of the angels and functioning as a moral compass, an assessment that is bolstered by adjacent events in the Absolute Vision arc of Roger Stern and Bob Hall’s run on The Mighty Avengers and the events depicted in Gruenwald and Paul Neary’s Captain America #314, a Squadron Supreme crossover that effectively works as the thirteenth issue of this 12-issue limited series. On the other hand, while Nighthawk is a contrarian figure who appears to be acting righteously, a close(r) examination of his actions shows he is morally compromised, if not hypocritical. As a result, while Squadron Supreme invites the reader to support Nighthawk and the Redeemers, it is very much a devil’s bargain because there is very little daylight between the Squadron Supreme and Nighthawk’s Redeemers, regardless of their respective motivations.
