Path of the Just (Silver Age Sentinels)

Rating:
Summary: If you like Astro City...
Review: As a fan of the superhero story, I thought this collection of short stories on that subject was about as good as they come! I'm told the stories are all based on a role playing game, but even though I'm not familiar with the game at all, I enjoyed the stories tremendously. I thought it was reminiscent of the Astro City comics - a deeper-than-dime-novel examination of superheros, supervillains and why they are such enduring archetypes of fiction. The writing and storytelling is just plain good old-fashioned fanboy entertainment. I'm hoping there's a volume II!
