Legendary Comics has surprised comic book fans everywhere with the release of Axiom, which is now on store shelves! Most noted for his work on comics like The Flash, Captain America, and Kingdom Come, Mark Waid teams up with artists Ed Benes and Dinei Ribeiro to create a gorgeous graphic novel about superheroes gone wrong.

Super-powered beings come to Earth with the intent of protecting it. But what happens when things go terribly wrong? The cover gives a pretty strong impression that things might not be going too well on Earth.
