Brave Old World #3 (of 4)
Book 3: A Thousand Natural Shocks; Bugfix (Summer)
April 1st, 2000
The Y2K problem proves more disruptive than anyone ever imagined in a spellbinding miniseries written by William Messner-Loebs (WONDER WOMAN: AMAZONIA) with art by Guy Davis (SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATRE, BATMAN) and Phil Hester (FLINCH) and painted covers by Paul Rivoche (Mister X, VERTIGO: WINTER'S EDGE II). When the computer glitch everyone feared instead causes time itself to flip back to the year 1900, it's up to a band of elite computer programmers to reinvent the technology of the digital age in a barely industrial America. Their plan is to hack their way back into the 21st century by creating a bug-free computer age, but other issues - such as survival - take precedence when aliens from an alternate, dystopian year 2000 (a timeline created by the team's activities in 1900) travel back in time with orders to kill.
