This is considered by many to be the greatest graphic novel of all time, and I can't say I disagree. For its time it must have been ground-shaking in the comic world. It takes place in an alternate future where the superheroes have a discrete lack of superhero qualities, ranging from apathy to evil to insanity to confusion to a character who is both supremely good and evil at the same time. The artwork that accompanies the intricate story is both detailed and complimentary, but it is kind of old-looking. That's not a problem though. You should do what everyone at Amazon.com says and read this if you're looking for a graphic novel. 5 of 5 stars
