Summary
"Reframing iconic moments of DC history and charting a previously unexplored sociopolitical thread as seen through the prism of DC Super Heroes who come from historically disenfranchised groups, John Ridley goes where no other has gone before! This unique new series presents its story as prose by Ridley married with beautifully realized color illustrations from a selection of exciting illustrators and comics artists. Extensively researched and masterfully executed, The other history of the DC universe promises to be an experience unlike any other. You may think you know the history of the DC Universe...but the truth is far more complex. The other history of the DC universe isn't about saving the world--it's about having the strength to simply be who you are"--
