In the outer reaches of space a cosmic war between the New
Gods has set events in motion that may change Earth and the
entire universe forever. Can the JLA members come to terms
with their latest recruit - the newly-discovered Man of Steel
- as a sprawling adventure unfolds? This time, the battle
will take our heroes to other worlds, other dimensions, other
eras, and even the mystical realms that lead to hell itself...
Another
Nail follows
on from the events that unfolded in the JLA collection
The Nail. In that book fans discovered a world without
a Superman. A world where one tiny accident cascaded into
a series of cataclysmic disasters.
To
fill you in on the last collection... Martha and Jonathan
Kent's truck gets a flat tire thanks to a nail. This problem
prevents them from going into town and, as a consequence,
means that they stay at home and never see Superman's space
craft crash-land on earth. The child that would grow to become
Superman remains undiscovered - which sets in motion a whole
heap of events that change the JLA universe as we know it.
Eventually a local Amish family reveal their Kal-El to the
world.
The
world that Alan Davis creates is not only well thought out,
but the art work is also a marked improvement on the usual
JLA tales. Partly this is due to the fact that this
collection is reprinted on glossy paper, which helps to bring
the characters to life, but it is also down to the fact that
the colours are so vibrant.
If
there is anything to complain about, it's the fact that Davis
tries to cram too much into too few pages - this could easily
have been a third longer and it wouldn't have felt stretched.
This
is a must own collection for JLA fans.
