Love and Death

Justice League International's Giffen and DeMatteis bring you another fine mess! More critically acclaimed bwah-ha-ha hilarity from one of comics' best-selling writing teams! Captain Valor is trapped on a parallel world where his doppelganger is a slacker named Milo--and really isn't much help against the Captain's archvillian Calignous, the alternate-world version of Milo's girlfriend, Stephie, who's followed Captain Valor to this Earth to wreak havoc. Confused? It gets crazier. And deadlier. HERO SQUARED VOLUME TWO is an adventure-filled laugh fest that Giffen and DeMatteis consider their finest work together to date (their previous "finest work" involved an army of mutated penguins)!
