Before WATCHMEN...
Before MARVELS...
Before KINGDOM COME...
...there was SQUADRON SUPREME.
Published before such stories became commonplace, this deconstructionist parable of the super-hero paradigm in a real-world setting set the standard for post-modernist super-hero fiction and influenced a generation of creators.
On an Earth much like our own, the world's greatest superhuman champions are confronted by a society in ruins. Faced with the possibility of a new dark age for mankind, they choose the only course available to them - and take control of the world's governments themselves. Now they have one year in which to completely restructure human society.
Can their plan succeed? Will a renegade member bring about their downfall? And what will happen when the Earth's mightiest heroes find themselves becoming instead its all-powerful, totalitarian overlords?
Considered by many to be the finest work of the late Mark Gruenwald, the original groundbreaking series is collected here in its entirety.
