Power Fantasy vol 2: Mutually Reassuring Destruction s/c back

"Declarations of war are for the Victorians."

Cerebral superpowers, essentially. *strokes chin*

Continent-scale nuclear brinksmanship and poker games between those possessing the personal strike capacity of an entire country's atomic arsenal.

Conversational dexterity is the order of the day, with some cracking reveals, and art whose sudden storms are rendered all the more arresting by their preceding false-sense-of-security lulls.

From the writer of THE WICKED + THE DIVINE and DIE.

The publisher writes:

"The epic and thrilling new superheroes series continues in the second volume! Imagine six people of such power that if they ever came into conflict the world would end. Now imagine them never coming into conflict. Which is easier to imagine? Come dance to the ticking of the doomsday clock with KIERON GILLEN (THE WICKED + THE DIVINE, DIE) and CASPAR WIJNGAARD (HOME SICK PILOTS, ALL AGAINST ALL) in the second collection of this sell-out epic. Collects issues #6-11."
