And those icons who do still fight on--Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman--operate under hidden agendas and dueling ideologies. Yet this America needs its heroes more than ever. With darkness gathering on the horizon, only a bold new generation of adventurers is equal to the challenge. Collects DC: the new frontier #1-6 and Justice League: the new frontier special #1"--
