This first book collects issues 1-6. The story seems well structured despite the number of characters. It is basically a revision of an older collection of stories called "The Squadrion Supreme". It features Marvel variations of Superman (hyperion), Batman (nighthawk), Green Lantern (doctor prysm), and a few others. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 078511369X, Hardcover)

Babylon 5 creator and Amazing Spider-Man writer J. Michael Straczynski presents a new vision of a world about to give birth to its first generation of super-heroes! Follow the origins of these new heroes and anti-heroes - from their birth through adulthood - and examine how their lives and abilities change and shape the world around them. The god-like Hyperion discovers his whole life has actually been an elaborate government-made lie, and his reaction could mean the end of the Earth! Do the world's other super-powered beings have any chance at stopping Hyperion if the truth sends him over the edge?
