The Creed Vol. 1 series (from Lightning) had only 1 issue, and it came out in June 1995, NOT june 1996. The #2 issue in Core for this series is the #2 of the 2 issue series that came out from Hall of Heroes in 1994 (and came BEFORE what we’re calling #1).
The #2 issue of Vol. 1 should be merged into the #2 of the Creed (Hall of Heroes) series.
