In their short history, the mismatched band of super-powered losers, freaks and masochists of DV8 have seen a lot and done even more, but it's nothing compared to this. As Gem Antonelli (a.k.a. Copycat) is debriefed in a holding cell, the story of how eight troubled teenagers were briefly gods to a prehistorical world unfolds against the backdrop of a cataclysmic disaster. 'The Day I Tried To Live' is part one in this amazing and tragic story unlike anything set in the WildStorm Universe before.
