"DC: The New Frontier is an Eisner, Harvey, and Shuster Award-winning six-issue comic book limited series written and drawn by Darwyn Cooke and published by DC Comics in 2003 and 2004. The series is an epic DC super-hero series reminiscent of Kingdom Come and The Golden Age. Like The Golden Age, it sought to tell a story which bridged the gap between the end of the Golden Age and the start of the Silver Age of comic books in the DC Universe.
The New Frontier is set in the late 1950s, with a cameo by President Dwight D. Eisenhower and references to the atomic testing of that era, and presents Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and their contemporaries as having been active since the late 1930s and early 1940s, when their original stories were first published.
During the course of the story, the older 1940s characters encounter the new 1950s generation of heroes, such as the Barry Allen version of the Flash and the Martian Manhunter, without reference to the concepts of Earth-One and Earth-Two that were introduced in the original comics." [wiki]
