Kingdom Come

picture from amazon

From amazon's customers review:
This is probably the most beautiful graphic novel I've ever seen. Alex Ross is a national treasure. His art is matched by a strong story which contrasts the eternal qualities of legendary heroes like Superman and Wonderwoman with the moral ambiguities of a rapidly changing world. I know its herecy to quote Peter Parker in a DC comics review, but if great responsibility is supposed to come with great power, can even Superman know what he should do with that power in every situation?

Walk a few miles beside an elderly, world-weary preacher and witness Kingdom Come for yourself.

This is a unique trip through the DC universe. The device of seeing the ultimate war of the meta-humans through the eyes of a human preacher steeped in the apocalyptic visions of the Bible was masterful. As both a preacher and a comic book fan, this graphic novel really hit home for me. The artwork was phenomenal. stirring and beautiful. The presentation of the moral dilemmas faced by our legendary heroes was epic. There is nothing about this story that I didn't like. BUY IT! READ IT! THINK ABOUT IT! READ IT AGAIN!
