About the series
In this 2000 prestige-format one-shot from DC, Mark Waid and Bryan Hitch deliver a cosmic-scale JLA epic that tests the team's might and morality. The Justice League confronts a mysterious, godlike entity whose arrival heralds a challenge that pushes even Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman to their limits. Hitch's sweeping, cinematic art pairs with Waid's character-driven storytelling to create a standalone tale that captures the League's awe-inspiring scope and human heart. It remains a standout example of the JLA's ability to blend high-concept science fiction with superhero drama.
