The critically-acclaimed superhero drama from award-winning writer John Lees (And Then Emily Was Gone) and artist Jonathan Rector is at last collected in this deluxe, oversized hardcover edition. The Standard is the story of two different men from two different eras who share the same heroic legacy. When a catastrophic event brings the two generations into collision, The Standard is forced to ask if superheroes still have a place in today's cynical world.
