DC: The New Frontier Deluxe Edition Review

An overview and discussion on this deluxe edition collection of Darwyn Cooke's New Frontier from DC Comics!

This is such a great story from one of the greats. Darwyn Cooke really understood those characters and we see that here. I can't imagine the kinds of stories we'd be getting if he were still with us. For me, this is the way I'd like to see these superheroes-sure, they have their personal issues but in the end, it's all about hope and doing things for the greater good. And on top of that, this also jump-started my appreciation for the Silver Age for both DC and Marvel.

Some elements from this masterpiece were incorporated into the (current) mainstream DC Continuity, such as the Losers in Dinosaur Island (but with Captain Storm actually SURVIVING rather than being killed among his partners) or, most recently, the John Henry incarnation (now called John Henry, Jr., which is also Steel's great-uncle).

I like to read this after DC The Golden Age, for me it's like a combined story, a beginning and an end. Both excellent books, some of my favourite stories from DC.

Sounds like another one I should check out at some point

This is not only my favorite comic book of all time it is better than Watchmen.

I remember first being exposed to the animated film. After watching that I wanted to buy the original comic story. Might make a self-purchase for my birthday in the near future. Thanks for the spotlight.

Is the film good?

[@astrostar49]

@@TheComicBookTrove Yeah all these years later it really holds up nicely.

[@TheComicBookTrove]

@@astrostar49 ah cool, I might have to check that out then

[@robertrains7029]

This for me is the magnum opus of DC!

[@TheComicBookTrove]

Definitely an instant favourite for me, I did a list of my top DC deluxe editions a while back before I'd read this but if I was to do it now this would definitely make the list
