They are the World's Greatest Super Heroes.

But the members of the fabled Justice League of America are about to learn they aren't the only ones who can band together toward a common goal.

They are the World's Greatest Super Heroes.

But the members of the fabled Justice League of America are about to learn they aren't the only ones who can band together toward a common goal.

The world's deadliest criminal masterminds have learned some valuable lessons from their past defeats, and their latest plan finds them acting in concert to bring about total victory—for the forces of good!

Behind its seemingly sincere façade, however, this campaign to save the world is actually a carefully honed scheme to enslave it—by systematically discrediting and neutralising the members of the Justice League, one by one. As the villains begin to gain the world's trust, our heroes must redouble their efforts to expose the truth—to fight...for JUSTICE!

DC's pantheon of heroes is stunningly reimagined by fan-favourite painter Alex Ross (KINGDOM COME, Marvels) and writer Jim Krueger (Earth X, Universe X), with pencil art by Doug Braithwaite (Paradise X) painted by Ross. This ultimate slipcased Absolute edition, now back in print, contains all twelve issues of the best-selling maxiseries, plus expansive character bios, developmental sketches, pencil art, bonus covers, DC Direct gallery, and much more!

Collects JUSTICE #1-12.
