• KINGDOM COME #1-4
• FIRST PRINTING
• CONDITION: VF to NEAR MINT
• PLOT SUMMARY: Sometime in the not-so-distant future, Superheroes have lost sight of their true goal, their true calling. Most of the Super Villains are dead or taken care of, and the Heroes now battle each other over turf, bragging rights or whatever. Most of the Metahumans are descendants of former heroes, such as Nighstar, daughter of Dick Grayson (Nightwing) and Starfire's daughter and Lightning, daughter of Black Lightning. The Heroes of the previous generation are mostly retired, following the lead of their greatest champion, Superman.
A battle finally ensues between the two generations. All the while, we watch through the eyes of an elderly pastor, Norman McKay. Norman was chosen by the Spectre to choose the fate of the guilty during Armageddon. Norman was chosen because of his relationship with the now deceased Wesley Dodds, the Sandman. McKay was the pastor in the hospital room when the Sandman died, and the Sandman passed his visions to McKay. Written by Mark Waid, with art and cover by Alex Ross.
