Nick just made a big decision about his future while his past creeps up on him at his high school reunion! Everybody worries about how they measure up against their classmates, but imagine if all of them saw you crash and burn on CNN.

When the worldÕs only superhero Nick Wilson lost his superpowers, his arch nemesis Clive Morganfield had to settle for merely being a billionaire industrialist. It didnÕt sit well with his ego, so when Nick reemerges on the scene, Clive approaches him with a bizarre business proposition that raises a number of questions: Can enemies be partners? Can you build a future on the ashes of the past? And what secrets of the universe are held inside the grooves of a jug-band record from the 1920s?

The perpetrators: the winged warriors of Thanagar. So why has Thanagar’s mightiest hero, Hawkman, come soaring to Adam Strange’s rescue? Hawkman knows that his people have been framed for Rann’s destruction. Only he and Strange can bring justice to the real mastermind: the interstellar tyrant called Despero.
