Welcome to the DC Universe in 1950s America -- a land of promise and
paranoia, of glittering cities and segregated slums, of dizzying
scientific progress and simmering Cold War conflict. A land without the
Justice League--Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Or so it seems.
The masked mystery men who fought for freedom in the Second World War
have been outlawed. The soldiers and spies who conducted top-secret
missions into the unknown now work in the shadows. 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 once more, only a bold new generation of
adventurers -- young, daring, and dedicated to the better angels of our
nature -- is equal to the challenge of the New Frontier.
From Eisner Award-winning writer-artist Darwyn Cooke and Eisner

timeless tale of idealism that has become one of the most acclaimed
superhero comics of the 21st century. This edition collects the original
6-issue miniseries together with the JUSTICE LEAGUE: THE NEW FRONTIER
SPECIAL, and features over 50 pages of designs, sketches and preliminary
