Tangent Comics/Doom Patrol

    (DC, 1997)
™ and ©1997 DC Comics, Inc.

The history of the Tangent Universe reaches a finale in this title, which if you were reading them sequentially, should be the last one read. Many of the events from the other Tangent titles, beginning with the escalation of the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 in Atom are integral elements in this time-travel story.

Dr. Deirdre Dey and her daughter Firehawk, along with Star Sapphire and a synthetic man named Rampage, leave the year 2030 just as the Earth explodes in a fiery holocaust. Dr. Dey is certain that her knowledge of future events can change the fate of the planet. But the story she and her band relate when they arrive in the present is viewed by the public as a fantastic hoax and they are dubbed the Doom Patrol. It is a name that becomes most appropriate as this group of time travelers realize how significant their presence in the present may be.
