☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 1997 DC Comics collection gathers the DC side of the Return to the Amalgam Age of Comics event, which revived the crossover mash-ups between DC and Marvel characters that first appeared in 1996. It reprints the DC-published one-shots featuring hybrid heroes like Dark Claw and Super-Soldier, continuing the playful fusion of both universes' mythologies.
In "Someone to Watch Over Me," writer Peter Milligan and artist Adam Pollina deliver a tense, character-driven tale set in the Amalgam Age of Comics, where Marshal Trask unleashes the relentless robotic Razormen to hunt down the malforms of Generation Hex. When the outlaws find themselves outmatched, Jono takes them back to his hometown of Humanity, seeking justice for the childhood wounds that still fester. Cover by Rodolfo Damaggio and Karl Story captures the story’s brooding atmosphere, while the interior art and colors by Pollina, Morales, Baumann, and Digital Chameleon bring a gritty, immersive feel to this pivotal moment.
In "Humanity's Last Stand," Marshal Trask’s robotic Razormen hunt the malforms of Generation Hex across the frontier, forcing outlaws Jono and his band to flee into the past. When escape seems impossible, Jono leads them to his forgotten hometown of Humanity, where old wounds and buried grudges await—ready to be reopened.
In "The Unextinguishable Flame," the Hellfire League of Injustice unleashes the demonic Fin Fang Flame to purge the world of metamutants, launching a devastating assault on the Judgment League Avengers. With the stakes higher than ever, Amazon breaks the JLX out of prison to stand against the infernal threat, forging an uneasy alliance in the face of annihilation.
