In the pages of DC's Absolute Power event, Fire and Ice had finally achieved what Fire always wanted. The dynamic duo made a glorious return to the ranks of the Justice League--and during a major world crisis, no less!

Oops. With their powers switched and no solution in sight, Fire and Ice tuck tail and regroup in Smallville, where they realize their predicament makes them something worse than has-been heroes: menaces to the local community they've come to love. But Fire's always got a plan, no matter how shortsighted! And when she goes digging around in Zatanna's bag of tricks for a quick fix in the middle of karaoke night...what could possibly go wrong? Aside from, y'know, everything. Again. Fire & Ice: Welcome to Smallville writer Joanne Starer teams up with fan-favorite artist Stephen Byrne, returning Fire and Ice to Kansas for another raucous romp full of heart and humor in the midst of their own personal hell! 32 pages, full color.
