COMMANDERS IN CRISIS VOL. 2

Our world sits in the final reality. Empathy, unity, decency... every day, we lose something we thought we couldn't live without. To save us all, the Crisis Command must give up everything they know-from their egos to their idealism-and go on a journey of rediscovery as the clock ticks towards annihilation. Standing in their way is the Extinction Society, an organization convinced that the only reasonable act for civilization is self-destruction. To survive, the Crisis Command has to be something more than superheroes, they have to be something better-and they have to inspire the last earth to do the same, so they can all meet tomorrow, together. The emotional conclusion to a prescient series from acclaimed writer STEVE ORLANDO (Wonder Woman, Doom Patrol: Milk Wars, Martian Manhunter) and artist DAVIDE TINTO (Marvel Action: Spider-Man).
