Summary

"THE TORCH WILL BE PASSED Welcome to mid-century America and the Silver Age of the DC Universe-a time of promise and paranoia, of shimmering cities and segregated slums, of dizzying scientific progress and simmering Cold War conflict. A land without superheroes. The masked mystery men who fought for freedom during the Second World War have been outlawed. The soldiers and spies who conducted top-secret missions into the unknown now work in the shadows. And those icons who do still fight on-Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman-operate under hidden agendas and dueling ideologies. Yet this America needs its heroes more than ever. With darkness gathering on the horizon once more, only a bold new generation of adventurers-young, daring and dedicated to the better angels of our nature-is equal to the challenge of the New Frontier. From Eisner Award-winning artist-writer Darwyn Cooke and Eisner Award-winning colorist Dave Stewart comes DC: THE NEW FRONTIER-a timeless tale of idealism and one of the most acclaimed superhero comics of the 21st century. This special 15th Anniversary Edition collects the original six-issue miniseries, JUSTICE LEAGUE: THE NEW FRONTIER SPECIAL, a New Frontier story from SOLO #5 and features over 50 pages of designs, sketches and preliminary artwork from Cooke"--
