    Titans Scissors, Paper, Stone (1997) 1

    Elseworlds. It's DC's first, full-scale manga-style comic book featuring Elseworlds versions of DCU's Classic Titans! Written and pencilled by Dirty Pair sensation Adam Warren, Scissors, Paper, Stone is a decidedly different vision of the DC Universe by a cutting edge artist. In the distant future and in a far away star system, a young woman with remarkable power gleans a truth from the lies that surround her: Her colony is about to be invaded, and only she can save them. Reaching into the distant past for a vision of heroism, some shred of hope that will help her confront and vanquish the invading forces, she sees a legend that tells her of four mythic teenage heroes who once vanquished a great demon. They were the Titans. Using this legend as a template, the young woman takes on the role of Raven, and creates a new band of Titans! Dynamic, detailed, thoughtful, funny, complex, this Prestige one-shot is unlike anything ever seen in a DCU Elseworlds before, yet is sure to delight both classic and current Titans fans. Written by Adam Warren. Art by Adam Warren and Tom Simmons. FC, 52 pg. Prestige Format. Cover price $4.95.

    Superman's Metropolis (1996) 1

    Elseworlds. The boyhood dreams of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster combine with the vision of renowned filmmaker Fritz Lang in Superman's Metropolis, a remarkable Elseworlds graphic novel setting the Man of Tomorrow in the City of Tomorrow. Ted McKeever's beautiful painted art superbly evokes the powerful imagery of Lang's film and the classic heroism of the Superman comics in the story adapted by frequent Moebius collaborators Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier, and comics legend Roy Thomas. Starring Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Lex Luthor, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White and others, this science fiction parable celebrates the triumph of the human spirit against an oppressive ruling class, in which only the promise of a superman yet-to-come gives hope to the workers slaving in the bowels of the city. Written by Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier, and Roy Thomas. Painted art and cover by Ted McKeever. FC, 64 pg. Prestige Format. Cover price $5.95.
