The emergence of superheroes has caught the attention of the world…and it’s certainly caught the attention of the people who run it. Ra’s al Ghul, Veronica Cale, Elenore Thawne, Hector Hammond, and the mysterious “Joker” have worked at cross-purposes until now, but this growing threat requires new ways of thinking…and new partnerships. An insidious betrayal from within their ranks is imminent, and if they don’t take action, they’ll lose control of a planet that was built to be their playground! Superstars Al Ewing and Giuseppe Camuncoli join forces to kickstart the next era of Absolute Universe stories…with several shocking new character reveals, and one big unmissable twist!

For the rare and immensely powerful subset of humanity known as psiots, their unique abilities have come with an enormous cost. Once, their existence was known only to a select few. Now, the revelation that thousands of these latent telekinetic “harbingers” secretly live among us…with the potential to be activated at any moment…has led the American government to a dramatic tipping point… Armed with new extra-governmental authority, the deep-black military contractor known as Omen has been authorized to identify, evaluate, and, if need be, eliminate all super-normal threats to the...

One day you wake up and everything is... different. Electric fire burns your fingertips; iron bends in your angry grip. You can hide in plain sight. You can soar above the clouds. Different. Better? The governmnet doesn't think so. And neither do the teens under the microscope. One of them objects... strongly. And he has enough power to change the world. But who will follow him?

Can you make the world better if you can’t be better? A telepath with no memory. A city of superpowered teenagers suppressed. Redemption. Destruction. Rebirth. A new era of HARBINGER begins here.

From superstar creator Warren Ellis and fan-favorite artist Humberto Ramos comes a story of a super-team with a serious difference: they're not exactly the "good" guys… Meet Threshold, Evo, Sublime, Bliss, Powerhaus and Copycat—products of the same program that produced the Gen 13 kids who are under the combined mentorship of the beautiful, evil Ivana Baiul and the barking mad Sideways Bob. Super-powered, super-cool, holed up in luxury apartments in a run-down part of New York City, they're entering a world they think they can understand…but do any of them truly realize what they've gotten into?

Ensemble superhero epic. A cosmic quake opens up seemingly random dimensional portals across the Earth, and some of the unintended visitors popping through them add to the existing ultrahuman and dissident crisis. The Institute of Unorthodox Sciences dispatches a USMC officer to either bring the potential threats under government control, or terminate them. Easier said than done. Not all of them are easily recruited, and some prove impossible to kill. The Turboknight came through a portal from the Korean War. His culture shock and notions of chivalry render him improperly aligned in the Current Year's developing civil conflict. Which side will he decide to fight on? After the Juggernaut interferes with a government-sanctioned riot, police and the Armed forces commit the worst possible blunder against somebody of his temperament and Threat Quotient: they piss him off. His resulting rampage rips a trail of mayhem and carnage across America with force of an atomic hurricane. The Phantom Raider is a home-grown urban guerrilla, backed by a secret team of cyberspies. He routinely infiltrates secure facilities, leaks sensitive information, and hijacks the surveillance network for his own purposes. His identity is secret; his tracks are covered; and his techno-mischief is a major thorn in the side of those tasked with narrative control. These and other ultrahumans coalesce into two opposing super teams, headed for a showdown in a small nation's impending civil conflict.
