Justice League: The New Frontier Special

I thoroughly enjoyed "Justice League: The New Frontier" when I read the TPBs. I got the DVD on Tuesday and loved it as well. I was hoping that this special issue would be a quality read and not be a cheap one-shot piggy backing on the success of the DVD. Writer Dawryn Cooke not only meets but exceeded my expectations. The issue is broken up into three short stories and an introductions. Cooke has me right off with Rip Hunter's introduction page. His description of the multiverse and continuity are very funny. The first story covers the government sending Superman after Batman. Cooke handles this very well. For those out there that think Batman would fair well in this fight, you will enjoy the read. The second story deals with the first meeting of Robin and Kid Flash. With all of the Teen Titans books out this year, this story really captured the early Titans as it was fun. The last story handles Wonder Woman starting the feminist revolution and is a nice wink to the discussions regarding Wonder Woman on the cover of "Playboy".

If you like "New Frontier", you'll like this one-shot. Even if you haven't read or seen "New Frontier", you'll like this one-shot.
