Kingdom Come (DC Black Label Edition)

The artwork is gorgeous and tells so much about the evolution of beloved characters in future. In few panels, you get to know The Flash is not human anymore, Aquaman is reclusive, Wonder woman is desperate, Green Lantern has transcended, the switch of outlook towards life between Batman and Superman. It projects a future where the next generation of superheroes are interested in fighting themselves because of a lack of ideal out there, humans are minority in this new world. It is upto the JL to teach them coexistence but that comes at a cost and question of morality. The epilogue of this story makes this one of the best DC stories ever told.

A must buy comic for all DC fans

The artwork and story is amazing, and that all too in an affordable price. If you are a DC fan worth the read.

Great print, but damaged cover during transportation.

The story is good but the main highlight is art, I've never seen such art in any graphic novel. Trust me the pictures will never do the justice you got to have to take this masterpiece in your hand and then you will see.

Kingdom Come by Mark Waid and Alex Ross. Got it today. It is a elseworlds story set in a near future world, where superheroes are ubiquitous and heroism is rare. Referred to as one of the best comicbooks in the Bronze age of DC,winner of 5 Eisner and Harvey Awards, it is a triumph in the history of comic books. Legendary Alex Ross's artworks are breathtaking and timeless. This is a new edition of 2019 where they published it under the DC Black Label imprint. The book also contains 100 pages of early script ideas, concept arts and sketches. A must buy!

Storyline is so good and impactful. And the style of this comics to present characters is so amazing. One of the best storyline from dc where there is no hope alive. I got it for RS.650. Pretty good deal. I received package with some fold in its corner. I suggest amazon that they should deliver the books and comics wrapped in bubble polythene or something so that they couldn't get damaged. Thank You.

KINGDOM COME is such a definitive work because it reminds us that superheroes are far from infallible. Many of them are capable of using their abilities entirely for good. Though, the temptation to take advantage of said abilities persists. Additionally, the presence of their powers will often lead them, and us, to believe that they are capable of anything. After the Joker massacred 93 people. Magog (the new age hero) took it upon himself to kill the Clown Prince of Crime once and for all. though Magog’s actions might be perceived as just, his decision and capability to kill provide him with a great sense of autonomy. As a result, without any guidance or law to follow, Magog is truly capable of saving, and killing, anyone he believes to deserve it. Now, after Magog murdered the Joker, he challenged Superman to a fight. He claimed that the winner would obtain the role of Earth’s ultimate guardian and continue serving as a hero to its people. However, in response to Magog’s challenge, Superman simply flew away and exiled himself from the rest of the world, leaving Magog as Earth’s newest, biggest superhero. It’s not the Fear or Respect it’s all about proving a point. Killing is not a solution elimination of point of view is.

This is essential read. A must have.

In tutti i sensi, Quest'opera dall'arte precisa e realistica di Alex Ross è un ritorno dell'uomo di acciaio classico (quello che si cambiava d'abito nei cabinet telefonici e che portava i mutandoni rossi sopra i pantaloni, per intenderci). La storia è stand-alone, dalla lunghezza ampia e con una caratterizzazione dei personaggi più che realistica, non solo sul piano emotivo ma anche su quello fisico (se l'età porta alla saggezza da una parte, dall'altra riduce le energie per poter gestire le situazioni più impegnative oltre a restringere la propria visione d'insieme). I supereroi di un tempo sono vere e proprie montagne, simboli a cui fare riferimento in tempi di crisi.....ma crisi è anche sinonimo di crescita e cambiamento e ciò che era valido in passato potrebbe non esserlo più in futuro.....oppure no?. Un fumetto (e forse anche qualcosa più di questo) grandioso, adatto a tutti.

Best comic I've ever read. Artwork and story are amazing. Don't hesitate to buy it.

So I heard about this story for a while and just recently had the privilege of reading it and I was very much impressed. I thought the story was very good. When I picture an older Superman, this is almost exactly what I pictured. The artwork is top-notch! And all the extra pages at the end are a nice bonus. I recommend this to any comic reader!
