Supreme Power

    (Marvel, 2003-2005)
™ and © Marvel Entertainment Group

An amazingly powerful orphan from a distant planet. A dark avenger of the night. A powerful warrior-princess. The strong-willed master of a mysterious energy source. Familiar, right? Good guess, but this isn’t another tale of the JLA.

However, the Squadron Supreme, both friends and foes to Marvel’s Avengers over the years, did originally seem to be based on DC’s Justice League. But these troubled heroes eventually grew into characters far removed from their role models, and their quest to turn their world into a crime-free Utopia tragically explored the fine line between paradise and tyranny.

In this penetrating and realistic look at the early days of these ill-fated warriors, author J. Michael Straczynski, who created TV’s Babylon 5 and examined the dynamics of “real world” heroes in Rising Stars, explores the intoxicatingly corruptive influence of unimaginable power. This series should be both a treat and a revelation for newcomers and fans alike.
