Earth 2: Society Annual #1

Dan Abnett teams with artists Bruno Redondo and Diógenes Neves for this 2016 annual, subtitled "Legacy" — a title that carries real weight given Earth 2's alternate-history cast. The cover, penciled and inked by Redondo, is a kinetic rush of heroes in freefall: a snarling, orange-and-black Batman dominates the foreground, while a dark-haired female hero, an archer, a brawler, and a second Batman figure wielding blue energy recede dramatically into the background. At $4.99, this oversized entry in the Earth 2: Society line promises an ambitious, ensemble-driven story set on DC's most unpredictable Earth.
