About this audiobook
Now reimagined in audio, the world of KINGDOM COME, originally published to critical acclaim by DC Comics in 1996 as a four-issue comic book series, comes alive in a dynamic production featuring a full cast, sound effects, and music.
In the near-future world of KINGDOM COME, superheroes are ubiquitous, but heroism is rare. After decades as Earth's champions, the members of the Justice League have all retreated out of the public eye, replaced with a new generation of anti-heroic crime-fighters whose brand of justice leaves humanity terrified, rather than inspired. With the planet's future in jeopardy, Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman must come out of retirement to make one last stand for truth and justice...
Adapted from the work of writer Mark Waid and artist Alex Ross, this audio production brings one of the bestselling graphic novels into an original and exciting new format.
