History

"The Crimebusters" were an incredibly short-lived team of super-heroes that Captain Metropolis attempted to organize in 1966 to replace the "Minutemen," who had retired over 15 years earlier. It consisted of newer heroes, such as Doctor Manhattan and Rorschach, but retained The Comedian, who had also been a member of the previous group; as well as the second Nite Owl and Silk Spectre, whose original counterparts had been Minutemen. The group fell apart almost before it started, largely at the urging of the pessimistic Comedian, who believed that they wouldn't really be making a difference in a world heading towards Apocalypse anyway. The group would be nearly insignificant, if not for the introductions it provided to the contemporary superheroes of the time amongst themselves.
