Opis

Spider-Man could not stop disaster.

Superman abandoned earth.

Batman lost a war to madness.

Captain America was assassinated.

The post-9/11 world has been dangerous for superheroes. Since the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, superheroes have grown darker, more realistic, and more fallible and flawed than ever before.

The scary part is what their transformation says about all of us.

Filled with in-depth analysis and thought- provoking questions, The Superhero Response is sure to fascinate die-hard fans and casual readers alike.
