"Twelve heroes from World War II, thrown together by fate and practically forgotten for the past sixty years, awaken in a time where super-heroes fight against each other in a Civil War and the American people don't trust their government. Writer J. Michael Straczynski and artist Chris Weston dust off a dozen Golden Age Marvel Comics characters for The Twelve, a tale of just how well old-fashioned heroes are able to hold up in the less idealistic modern world in spite of their personal losses and shortcomings ... Thrust into this strange world, their human drama unfolds amongst varying levels of heroism, with motivations ranging from altruism to fame. They are The Twelve! Join them as they hurtle towards an unimaginable fate!"--Dust jacket flap
