From the masterful minds of Grant Morrison (FINAL CRISIS, THE MULTIVERSITY) and Yanick Paquette (SWAMP THING, BATMAN, INC.) comes the most provocative origin of Wonder Woman you've ever seen - a wholly unique retelling that still honors her origins.
For millennia, the Amazons of Paradise Island have created a thriving society away from the blight of man. One resident, however, is not satisfied with this secluded life - Diana, Princess of the Amazons, knows there is more in this world and wants to explore, only to be frustrated by her protective mother, Hippolyta. Diana finds her escape when Air Force pilot Steve Trevor, the first man she has ever seen, crashes onto their shores. With his life hanging in the balance, Diana ventures into the long forbidden world of men. The Amazons chase after her and bring her back to Paradise Island in chains to face trial for breaking their oldest law - staying separated from the world that wronged them.
Thought-provoking yet reverent, thoroughly modern but still timeless, the power and courage of Paradise Island's greatest champion - Wonder Woman - is introduced in this new addition to DC Comics' NEW YORK TIMES best-selling Earth One original graphic novel series.

With the whereabouts of his last paycheck still unknown, the Killer has to shelve his plans for some peace and quiet, and new clients are knocking at the door. There's no passing up a serious job right now, and no time to be choosy about clientele. In fact, his new client isn't giving him a choice, and there's a chance he knows something the Killer wants: the answer to what went wrong in Paris. The stakes are rising, but the Killer's ready to play the game: keeping his head and putting holes in everyone else's.

TV legend. Wall Street wolf. Internet mogul. Tabloid bad boy. Master metaphysicist. Spiritualist. Monster hunter. Doctor Adam Spektor is all of these things... and less. For fifteen years, Spektor has traveled the globe to smoke out and defeat werewolves, vampires, ghosts, and everything else that goes bump in the night... and yet, his success has brought him no peace. Some part of him is missing, something he needs but can't name. But he's about to find what's missing in an unlikely place. A supernatural thriller that shatters all realities, courtesy of award-winning author Mark Waid (Kingdom Come, Daredevil, Indestructible Hulk)! Mark Waid Writer Commentary: "This project is a blast. It plays into all the non-superhero things that interest me - magic, performance, celebrity culture, and the pressures one feels under the public spotlight. Doctor Spektor is a pop-culture illusionist who's half Criss Angel, half Van Helsing - a demon hunter who has turned vampire-and-werewolf-and-zombie killing into a reality show. Now he's finally found something that scares even him - and the world watches him crumble when he tries to confront it. Can he redeem himself in the public eye, and in his own?" Includes the complete story arc from issues #1-4 of the Doctor Spektor comic book series, a complete cover gallery (featuring dozens of pin-ups), plus the complete Mark Waid script of the first chapter.

Very interesting. As clear a readable rendition of the Bible as I have seen. Makes biblical teaching more accessible to young and old alike. -John Wagner, Co-creator of Judge Dredd.
Indeed, one might argue that The Word for Word Bible Comic is actually a more authentic presentation of the Bible than our bare printed texts, which invite us to fill a visual vacuum by supplying pictures in our own imagination of people and events. - Rev Dr Christopher R. Smith (Author of Understanding the Books of the Bible Study Guides from IVP. Doctorate in Historical Theology and the Bible.)

The Story: Ancient fortresses lie in ruins and temples to dark entities have been torn down. In battle after battle God has smashed the enemies of His holy nation and they have, at last, taken the promised land. But now His chosen people have turned their back on Him. Forgetting the great waters that parted before them and the massive city walls that shattered at their call, they leave God's way in the dirt and try to live life by their own rules.

However, ordinary men like Samson and Gideon are called by an angel of heaven and given divine powers to turn the tide and save the people from annihilation.
