    The unforgettable, best-selling miniseries by acclaimed writer Mark Waid and superstar painter Alex Ross returns in a special oversized, feature-packed Absolute Edition - just in time for its 10th anniversary!

    Set at the dawn of the 21st century in a world spinning inexorably out of control, Waid and Ross weave a tale of youth versus experience, tradition versus change, and what defines a hero. KINGDOM COME is a riveting story pitting the old guard - Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and their peers - against a new, uncompromising generation of heroes that declare war against each other to determine the future of the planet.

    This Absolute Edition is a whopping 340-page slipcased hardcover featuring a new wraparound image by Ross. Also included is an extended character sketch section, a peek into Ross's own sketchbook, text pieces by Waid and Ross, annotations of the entire series, rare art (from magazines, trading cards, T-shirts, the novel and more), promotional images, a gallery of DC Direct Kingdom Come product, the evolution of a story page, and much more!

    For my review on the normal Trade Paperback click HERE  The Absolute Version of a story is always nice if you really enjoy a story.  This is one of those Absolutes that even if you don't enjoy the story, the art alone is stellar.  Alex Ross' art deserves the big treatment.  Really, that is what your paying for.  This Absolute is also one of the best priced ones.  Still an expensive book on sale or online you can find it of a price that feels a little more fair.  Kingdom Come is a story every DC...
