WATCHMEN SI SCONTRA CON L’UNIVERSO DC! Sette anni dopo gli eventi di Watchmen, l’inganno di Adrian Veidt è stato scoperto.

Un cómic postapocaliptico de dos grandes autores. ¿Quién es el HOMBRE BRILLANTE? Conocemos a Tariq Geiger, un superviviente de la Guerra Desconocida de 2030, cuando la guerra nuclear arrasó el planeta y le robó a su familia. También lo convirtió en un reactor nuclear viviente con un caldero humeante de radiactividad dentro de su cuerpo. Ahora, en 2050, Geiger se ha convertido en una leyenda urbana, en el hombre del saco de las historias para dormir que les cuentan a los niños de una reconstruida Las Vegas. Una versión retorcida, a modo de parque temático, de lo que fue en otros tiempos, gobernada por despiadados señores de la guerra, Las Vegas existe dentro de un sistema de túneles que mantiene a sus habitantes a salvo de la atmósfera tóxica que la rodea. Si juegas bien tus cartas, puedes optar a una vida mejor. Extramuros, Geiger solo quiere que lo dejen en paz, mientras unos insectos mutantes llamados rondadores nocturnos y los caníbales del Pueblo de los Órganos acechan en busca de sus próximas víctimas. Pero cuando los señores de la guerra de Las Vegas hacen que Geiger entre en sus juegos de poder, el Hombre Brillante se convierte involuntariamente en protector de dos jóvenes huérfanos en un peligroso juego de supervivencia. Enseguida descubrimos que los señores de la guerra no son los únicos interesados en eliminar a Geiger...Recopila GEIGER 1 a 6

As things spiral out of control, Rich wonders if there’s any way to escape the thing in the woods.

Unsuspecting Rick Summers had simply gone to the cemetery to visit the graves of his mother and sister, killed in a car accident years earlier. He had the cabbie wait for him. But when he got back into the taxi, he didn’t have the same driver. His new chauffeur was a re-animated corpse. And he was about to take a drive into hell. The doors to hell open in the house of his ex-lover, Katarina, where he is delivered by his not-so-sweet smelling driver. Rick learns that Katarina is missing and has been recently plagued by a stalker. That’s just the beginning of the bad news. When the house changes right before their unbelieving eyes, taking them somewhen and somewhere else, a horrifying mystery begins to unfold. At its heart is unrequited love. And Rick Summers. It seems that several lifetimes ago, Rick, then Thomas, spurned a woman named Abigail. Not a good idea. Because Abigail’s great at holding a grudge, some of her best friends are demons, and she’s dedicated to keeping a promise she made to Rick long, long ago. "Forever will I remember; forever will you suffer."

Standing five stories tall in a relatively small city, the Howard Phillips building is like any other building: it is secretly inhabited by an entity from another plane of existence that feeds off the energy of the people who work within its walls. Unfortunately, the life form inhabiting this particular building has been infected by a sort of virus of hate; as companies move out and its inhabitants dwindle this alien intelligence has chosen to use fear as a means of obtaining sustenance. It is up to Jon, Marcy, and Bettie to stop this haunting presence before it’s too late.

Computer expert Oracle is in fact Barbara Gordon, former Batgirl left in a wheelchair after being shot by the Joker. She needs a field agent to act for her - and Black Canary fits the bill.
