Последние издания книг Дарвина Кука

ОПОЛЧЕНЦЫ — Ночная Сова, Шелковая Тень, Капитан Метрополис, Правосудие В Капюшоне, Комедиант, Силуэт, Мотылек, Мистер Доллар — объединили усилия для борьбы с преступностью в стремительно меняющемся мире. Но кто из них усомнится в том, где пролегает граница между героем и негодяем, и сделает роковой шаг — шаг между жизнью и смертью?

Шестнадцатилетнюю Лорел Джейн Юпитер с рождения готовили к тому, чтобы она пошла по стопам матери и стала новой ШЕЛКОВОЙ ТЕНЬЮ. Взбунтовавшись против столь неусыпной опеки, она сбегает из Лос-Анджелеса в Сан-Франциско — и оказывается в самом центре молодежной революции. Но идеалы «детей цветов» не всех устраивают, и мафиози Председатель берет дело под личный контроль...

Свою историю рассказывают МИСТЕР ДОЛЛАР и МОЛОХ. Один мечтал выступать в мюзиклах, а стал лицом Национального банка и — поневоле — настоящим борцом с преступностью. Другой, прославившись как иллюзионист, стремился к большему — и стал одним из заправил преступного мира...

Что это? Результат тяжелой психологической травмы? А может, измученное сознание Брюса Уэйна сыграло с ним злую шутку? Так или иначе, Темный Рыцарь встретился с тем, кто прятался глубоко внутри, с воплощением своего страха. Как бороться с внешними врагами Бэтмен хорошо знает, но сражаться с самим собой ему еще не доводилось.

Ясно одно: от этого Брюса не жди ничего хорошего…

Бэтмен живет в мире насилия, и насилие — движущая сила его мотивов. Он готов восстанавливать справедливость любой ценой. Уверенность в правильности этого метода дает трещину, после того как на глазах Темного Рыцаря один из приспешников Джокера убивает себя. Герой, не ведающий страха и сомнений, впадает в депрессию и добровольно заточает себя в Бэт-пещере. Он не покинет ее, пока не разберется в себе и не поймет, что на самом деле движет им, что управляет его «я» — страх или желание защищать, жажда мести или стремление к справедливости?

Welcome to the DC Universe in 1950s America -- a land of promise and paranoia, of glittering cities and segregated slums, of dizzying scientific progress and simmering Cold War conflict. A land without the Justice League--Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Or so it seems.

Darwyn Cooke's undeniable classic is now released as a part of DC's prestigious new imprint of standalone graphic novels, DC Black Label.

The masked mystery men who fought for freedom in the Second World War have been outlawed. The soldiers and spies who conducted top-secret missions into the unknown now work in the shadows. And those icons who do still fight on -- Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman -- operate under hidden agendas and dueling ideologies.

Yet this America needs its heroes more than ever. With darkness gathering on the horizon once more, only a bold new generation of adventurers -- young, daring, and dedicated to the better angels of our nature -- is equal to the challenge of the New Frontier.

From Eisner Award-winning writer-artist Darwyn Cooke and Eisner Award-winning colorist Dave Stewart comes DC: The New Frontier-- a timeless tale of idealism that has become one of the most acclaimed superhero comics of the 21st century. This edition collects the original 6-issue miniseries together with the Justice League: New Frontier Special, and features over 50 pages of designs, sketches and preliminary artwork from the author.

The New York Times best-selling prequels to the best-selling graphic novel Watchmen are collected together for the first time and in a special DC hardcover Omnibus!

Darwyn Cooke, the award-winning, acclaimed writer and artist of DC: THE NEW FRONTIER, has won praise for his insightful, emotionally resonant storytelling.

Now, DC presents Cooke's early tales of the Dark Knight in one graphic novel, including the epic tale "Ego," in which Batman must face his own inner demons and, in its entirety, the original graphic novel CATWOMAN: SELINA'S BIG SCORE.

Meet the soldier they call G.I. Zombie! In these stories from issues #1-8 and FUTURES END #1, an undercover operation exposes a terrorist plot – and the only thing in its way is a zombie with an AK-47! Plus, the only man who can negotiate with terrorists is already dead!

This beautiful, oversized art book features the distinct, classic style of Eisner Award-winning writer/artist Darwyn Cooke. Best known for the ambitious epic THE NEW FRONTIER, a six-issue miniseries bridging the gap between the end of the Golden Age of comics and the beginnings of the Silver Age, Cooke has also worked on BEFORE WATCHMEN, BATMAN: EGO, CATWOMAN with Ed Brubaker, as well as Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series and Men In Black: The Series.

Writer/illustrator Darwyn Cooke's critically acclaimed masterpiece DC: The New Frontier is celebrated in this new edition featuring story pages, detailed annotations, alternate sequences, and an extensive gallery of sketches, pin-ups, action figure art, and much more! In the 1950s, Cold War paranoia has resulted in the mystery men of the Golden Age being outlaws. Stalwarts such as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman continue to fight for truth and justice, but as the world hurtles toward an uncertain future, it would take a new breed of hero to define the American Way. DC: The New Frontier takes readers on an epic journey from the end of the Golden Age of heroes to the beginnings of the legendary Justice League of America. For the first time, DC collects the entire epic DC: The New Frontier in a single collection, along with sketch and background material from the Absolute Edition.
