Find out what happens when superheroes take off their capes. Welcome to Common Grounds, the hero hangout and coffee-and-donut shop, where true tales of the human side of the superhuman get spilled every month. Some gut-wrenching, some funny, but all told from the heart by new writing sensation Troy Hickman. Two stories every month! In this issue, artist Dan Jurgens examines the downside of being the fastest man alive, while the Powers team of Oeming and Pantazis tread the dangerous ground of the superhero men's room. Really.
