The World’s Greatest Heroes become something more than legends in this definitive collection of Mark Waid’s era-shaping Justice League stories. From reality-warping nightmares to apocalyptic invasions, the JLA stands between Earth and the impossible—and, at times, between each other.
Spanning origin, crisis, and character-defining trials, this monumental omnibus encapsulates the full scope of Waid’s contributions to the JLA mythos. These are the stories that reveal the League at its most strategic, most vulnerable, and most iconic.
Waid’s work probes what happens when contingency, trust, fear, and love collide at the top of the superhero hierarchy. Justice League: A Midsummer’s Nightmare thrusts the heroes into a shared dreamscape where identity fractures and destiny reshapes itself. JLA: Year One reimagines how five strangers forged the world’s premier super-team, while Flash & Green Lantern: The Brave and the Bold explores the friendship that anchors the League’s heart. Classic arcs such as Tower of Babel, Queen of Fables, Man and Superman, Heaven’s Ladder, and Terror Incognita push the League to their mental, moral, and cosmic limits—testing not just their powers, but their faith in one another.
Collects Justice League: A Midsummer's Nightmare #1–3; JLA #18–21, #32–33, #43–58, #60; JLA: Year One #1–12; JLA Secret Files and Origins #3; Flash & Green Lantern: The Brave & The Bold #1–6; DC Comics Presents: JLA - Heaven's Ladder #1; JLA: Year One Deluxe Edition #1; and Flash/Green Lantern: The Brave & the Bold Deluxe Edition #1.
Mark Waid, a New York Times best-selling author, has written a wider variety of well-known comics characters than any other American comics author, from Superman to the Justice League to Spider-Man to Archie and hundreds of others. His award-winning graphic novel with artist Alex Ross, Kingdom Come, is one of the best-selling comics collections of all time.
