In 1938, ACTION COMICS #1 introduced Superman. In 1939, DETECTIVE COMICS #27 introduced Batman. Now, a handsome trade paperback from fan-favorite writer/artist John Byrne (BATMAN/CAPTAIN AMERICA, X-Men: The Hidden Years) explores what would have happened if those events had truly occurred in the Golden Age - and how the world would have changed as a result - in SUPERMAN & BATMAN: GENERATIONS, a collection reprinting the popular 4-issue Prestige Elseworlds miniseries. Spanning from the late 1930s to a gleaming era centuries
ahead, GENERATIONS witnesses Earth's technology and society taking unexpected directions
due to the presence of Superman and Batman, with each of the heroes responding in
surprising ways to the ever-changing challenges of this strange new world. Split into
decade-long chapters, each paying homage to the style that dominated the comics of those
years, GENERATIONS goes from the pulpy feel of the Golden Age through styles including
high camp, grim-and-gritty, social relevance, and more. Just imagine!
