The heroes of the DC Universe are powerless... but their spirits are unbroken! With the Trinity of Evil in power, the resistance begins in DC's most explosive blockbuster story in years. The superstar team of writer Mark Waid (Kingdom Come) and artist Dan Mora (Batman/Superman: World's Finest) unite for Absolute Power, an epic event that sees DC's heroes tested like never before! Following a career of machinations, and thanks to the combined might of the unstoppable android Failsafe and the otherworldly Brainiac Queen, Amanda Waller has finally achieved her goal: stealing the metahuman abilities of every hero and villain on planet Earth. As chaos erupts in the streets and a massive misinformation campaign sways public opinion to her side, the founder of the Suicide Squad methodically targets each superhero dynasty one at a time, starting with Superman. But even in this darkest of hours, a resistance is forming... and Batman is out for vengeance. Can these powerless heroes defeat the Trinity of Evil and their army of living weapons known as Task Force VII? It's a shocking blitzkrieg across the globe that is decades in the making—and will shape the course of the DC Universe for years to come! This volume collects Absolute Power #1-4 and Absolute Power: Ground Zero.
