Synopses & Reviews
DC: The New Frontier takes readers on an epic journey from the end of the Golden Age to the genesis of a bold new era for the super-hero in the late 1950s! World War II is over. The Cold War has begun. And the Age of the Super-Hero is in decline. But where are the heroes of tomorrow? The New Frontier recounts the dawning of the DC Universe's Silver Age from the perspective of those brave individuals who made it happen. Encounter "keepers of the flame" including Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman, who survived the anti-hero sentiment of the Cold War, as well as eager newcomers like test pilot Hal Jordan and scientist Barry Allen, poised to become the next generation of crime-fighters.
