Wicked Cool Preview Art from DC's FIRST WAVE!

Now this is a project I can get behind.  Doc Savage, The Batman, The Spirit, and all those cool classic, pulp heroes, in a tale written by Brian Azzarello and drawn by Rags Morales?  Sign me up!

Jim Lee and Geoff Johns take on the Justice League?

From the Isotope press release: In honor of James Robinson and Mark Bagley‘s up-coming run on JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA, the Isotope, along with our friends […]
