Synopsis: En un futuro no muy lejano, Magog y sus aliados son los únicos superhéroes de la Tierra, pero sus métodos están a punto de provocar un caos del que no habrá vuelta atrás. Así pues, Superman se ve obligado a abandonar su retiro para, en compañía de más héroes de antaño, conseguir que la humanidad vuelva a tener fe en ellos. El guionista Mark Waid y el dibujante Alex Ross unen fuerzas en Kingdom Come, un relato tan bello como inquietante que defiende el cómic de superhéroes como un género protagonizado por personas de alma e intenciones puras frente a aquellas que se parecen demasiado a los enemigos que combaten. La historia de DC Comics está repleta de cómics imprescindibles que poseen un gran valor en sí mismos, no solo por contar con un principio y un final definidos sino también por haber participado en la evolución del medio. Kingdom Come supuso en su día un vuelco que dictó el futuro inmediato de un medio que abandonó la moda imperante para volver a sus orígenes.

English Translation: In the not-too-distant future, Magog and his allies are the only superheroes on Earth, but their methods are about to cause chaos from which there will be no return. So Superman is forced to come out of retirement to, in the company of more heroes of yesteryear, restore humanity's faith in them. Screenwriter Mark Waid and artist Alex Ross join forces in Kingdom Come, a tale as beautiful as it is haunting, making the case for superhero comics as a genre starring people of pure soul and intentions as opposed to those who are too much like the enemies they fight. The history of DC Comics is littered with must-have comics that are valuable in their own right, not only for having a definite beginning and end but also for having played a part in the evolution of the medium. Kingdom Come was a turning point that dictated the immediate future of a medium that abandoned the prevailing fashion to return to its origins.

1st printing. Collects Kingdom Come (1996 DC) #1-4. Written by Mark Waid. Art and cover by Alex Ross. In the near-future world of Kingdom Come, superheroes are ubiquitous, but heroism is rare. After decades as Earth's champions, the members of the Justice League have all retreated from the public eye, replaced with a new generation of crime-fighters whose brand of justice leaves humanity terrified rather than inspired. But with the planet's future in jeopardy, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman must come out of retirement to make one last stand for truth and justice... Kingdom Come, the winner of five Eisner Awards and produced by comics legends Mark Waid and Alex Ross, has proven itself a seminal masterpiece in comics history. Softcover, 5-in. x 8 1/2-in., 208 pages, full color. Cover price $9.99.
