Bursting with the high-octane sense of adventure that powered classic superhero team-ups in the Silver Age, BRAVE AND THE BOLD pairs A-list characters from all walks of life for unforgettable, out-of-this-world stories.

In this collection, written by KINGDOM COME writer Mark Waid, Batman teams with the Golden Age Flash while Nightwing, Hawkman Green Arrow and Deadman battle a siege on the mystical haven known as Nanda Parbat. And look out for appearances by Superman and Catwoman, too!
Mark Waid, a New York Times best-selling author, has written a wider variety of well-known comics characters than any other American comics author, from Superman to the Justice League to Spider-Man to Archie and hundreds of others. His award-winning graphic novel with artist Alex Ross, Kingdom Come, is one of the best-selling comics collections of all time. View titles by Mark Waid
A self-taught artist, Jim Aparo first attempted to break into the industry in the early 1950s at the legendary E.C. Comics group. When E.C. rejected his work, Aparo turned to advertising art in his native Connecticut, where he specialized in illustrating newspaper fashion ads while continuing his efforts to work in comics. His dream was finally realized in 1966 when Charlton Comics editor Dick Giordano hired him to draw a humorous character called Miss Bikini Luv in Go-Go Comics. Sharpening his skills on such features as the Phantom, Nightshade, Wander and Thane of Bagarth, Aparo followed Giordano to DC Comics in 1968 where he quickly gained notice for his smooth, realistic style on such titles as Aquaman, The Brave and the Bold, The Phantom Stranger, The Spectre, The House Of Mystery, The House Of Secrets, Batman, Detective Comics, and Batman and the Outsiders. An artist whose work is still considered a high-water mark for the industry, Aparo died on July 19, 2005. View titles by Jim Aparo
