Kingdom Come by Mark Waid

The Kingdom Come

Set in a dystopian future where the world is overrun by reckless and morally ambiguous superhumans, the narrative explores the tensions between the old guard of superheroes and a new generation that lacks their predecessors' ethical compass. As society teeters on the brink of chaos, a retired hero is reluctantly drawn back into action to restore order and guide the new heroes towards a more responsible path. The story delves into themes of legacy, responsibility, and the complex nature of heroism, ultimately questioning what it truly means to be a hero in a world that has lost its way.
