This is an imaginary story...aren't they all." Alan Moore, page one of Superman #423, September 1986. When Alex Ross approaches DC comics with an epic tale of a possible future--an imaginary future--for the DCU, people sit up and listen intently. Which is what we hope you will do for the next hour plus. This second installment of James' Tales from the Back Issue Bin Book Club has The Mint Crew of James, Chris, Joe, and returning guest Richie, diving deeply into the greatest Elseworlds story of them all--KINGDOM COME. Alex Ross and Mark Waid marshal all their creative talents to depict a super-human future gone awry. Stunning artwork and spot on characterizations explode form the pages of this seminal work. There is much here to dissect and disseminate as your hosts critique the imaginary what-ifs of an otherwise else world of tragedy and triumph. As comic book fans we would care not to" imagine" a comic book rack without a Kingdom Come. "'Nuff Said!"
