The Crimebusters was the second superhero team of the Watchmen universe, succeeding the Minutemen and assembled in 1962 by Minutemen leader Captain Metropolis, and made up of the most well-known costumed heroes of the era. The team, however, didn't fully stay together past their first meeting, as the Comedian, who saw it as a joke, burned their crimefighting plan and ridiculed the flaws in it. The Crimebusters left one by one moments after he stormed out of the room, but the respective heroes would still work together on their own one-off terms in later years. The Crimebusters was created by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, and first appeared in Watchmen #2 (1986).
