Heretic (1996 Dark Horse) #1

Written by Joseph Phillips and F.R. DeLeonardo. Art by Joseph Phillips and Dexter Vines.

Terceron City is home to many murderers and manipulators -- it's overpopulated, over-industrialized, and totally corrupt. It's also home to many heroes, including the super-clean superteam Allegiance. But where Allegiance isn't getting the job done, Terceron's latest resident, The Heretic, has no such obstructions. A rogue from an ancient brotherhood of religious assassins, The Heretic has renounced both his murderous past and Allegiance's code of honor. Terceron City's going to get a whole lot better, or he's going to see that it dies trying.
