Customer Reviews
I just read the first hardcover and when I was done, I ordered every other trade available in this series from HeavyInk. It was that awesome. To me it’s a retelling in a more realistic fashion of the “Superman” story. They just happened to replace Superman with Hyperion, the Flash with the Blur, Green Lantern with Dr. Spectrum, Batman with Nighthawk, etc, etc. Several jabs at DC also.
