     In a press release issued on Wednesday June 13th, 2018 DC Comics released details about its upcoming Heroes in Crisis. Written by Tom King and Clay Mann, this seven-issue miniseries will center on a Sanctuary built by Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman. It's a place where the Heroes of this world can go and take a reprieve from the violence and villany they face in their daily lives.

 Tom King is a former counterterrorism operations officer with the C.I.A. and wanted to bring that world view to his comics. 

     In the release Tom King was quoted as saying, " I feel I'm part of a rolling generation of people who spent their twenties overseas fighting terrorism. Millions of people cycle through that machine and came home to America. And I think that sort of experience of violence is shaping who we are as a culture, and as a country. And I want to talk about that, want to talk about that experience, the experience of what violence can do to a person, to a community, to a nation, to a world."
