DC's New Frontier, Part 1

Is DC: The New Frontier by Darwyn Cooke a true masterpiece, or just a gorgeous love letter to a bygone era? In Part 1 of our multi-part deep dive, we examine the transition from the Golden Age to the Silver Age of DC Comics. We break down the haunting and heroic fates of The Losers on Dinosaur Island, the early days of Hal Jordan and Barry Allen, Martian Manhunter’s arrival on Earth, and an unforgettable moment where Wonder Woman completely shifts the paradigm in Indo-China. Along the way, we somehow get completely sidetracked into an extensive discussion of Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead, Bruce Campbell's best moments as Ash Williams, and whether or not any of us are related to Alexander Hamilton.
