Kingdom Come

Mark Waid and Alex Ross have to be the most amazing individuals to have worked on Kingdom Come. it is one of my favorite graphic novels of all time. the semi realistic style that Alex Ross uses is outstanding each and every panel is like a work of art, its simply amazing. I really like the way Mark Waid starts out the story, how the super heroes are getting old, and the way they think is not how thinks are done in the present day, and so the public reappoints a hero to replace superman, which is Magog. Its cool how all the super heroes get disbanded after superman leaves to live a life of solitude in his fake futuristic park. And its really cool how Waid adds the third person view of the story how spectre shows around Norman, and tells him how the events are going to unfold. My favorite part was when the action started to esscalate and when the final battle rolls around and all the superheroes are at each others throats. and Superman goes up against Shazam! the most epic scene! loved every moment of it.
