There's a new kind of crisis threatening the heroes of the DC Universe, ripped from real-world headlines by CIA-operative turned comics writer Tom King: How does a superhero handle PTSD? THERE'S NEVER BEEN A CRISIS LIKE THIS. Welcome to Sanctuary. Constructed in secret by Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, the facility is a hospital like no other. Here, superheroes reeling from their fight against evil use bleeding-edge artificial intelligence to process their trauma and return to the never-ending battle. But this Sanctuary is about to be violated. Murder has infiltrated this haven. The prime suspects? Clown Princess Harley Quinn and time-traveler Booster Gold. Now the Man of Steel, the Dark Knight, and the Amazon Princess must seek them both, leading the hunt for the culprit behind this terrible crime. But the danger is deeper than they know. And unless they catch the real killer, the secrets--and the lives--of every hero in the universe are in jeopardy... Acclaimed writer Tom King joins artists Clay Mann (Trinity), Lee Weeks (Batman), and Mitch Gerads (The Sheriff of Babylon) for Heroes in Crisis--an unprecedented comics event that sheds light on the darkest corners of the DC Universe's psyche, exploring the ripped-from-the-front-lines post-traumatic stress disorder crisis in a bold and unforgettable superhero thriller. Collects Heroes in Crisis #1-9.
