Paul Dini deja en cada historia una fábula, que fácilmente podría utilizarse como material de lectura educativo. La pregunta que responde es ¿Por qué los superheroes no cambian el status quo del mundo? Y todos tienen su respuesta. El factor humano de cada personaje esta plasmado en las pictóricas imágenes de Alex Ross, que en algunas escenas tocan el alma. Esta sucesión de posters no deja de ser una obra excelente y recomendable a cualquier persona que no haya tocado un comic en la vida, para que se maraville.
