Captain Atom [Nouvelle Série]

Captain Atom continue d'être ma plus belle surprise du relaunch. J.T. Krul aborde le thème classique de la divinité pour un tel personnage, déjà vu dans Watchmen, mais il profite encore une fois de son personnage, un militaire et non pas un scientifique, pour en tirer un peu d'originalité. Flash en guest-star a une utilité et ne fait pas que la tentative de DC pour relier ses séries et vendre plus certains numéros, et j'aime l'idée sous-jacente dans plusieurs titres que la Justice League observe et veille sur tout le monde.
En tout cas, je suis vraiment fan du traitement de Krul sur ce personnage, qui m'a bluffé sur le #2 et confirme ici, tout en ayant un impact émotionnel beaucoup moins fort. Vivement la suite, même si Freddie Williams II a un trait un peu moins beau que sur les deux précédents.

La série échappe (pour l'instant) à l'annulation, pourtant le titre vends moins que Hawk & Dove qui disparait

Captain Atom sauvé par les bonnes critiques ? Sauf erreur de ma part, en plus de pas trop vendre les séries annulées ne jouissaient pas d'une grande popularité au niveau des critiques.

Pourtant, elle est dans mon top 3.

Ben oui, j'ai pas dit qu'elle était nulle, au contraire !

Ah, j'avais survolé ton post, pardon.

On peut pas dire qu'il y ai un buzz énorme non plus

this strange encounter? What impending doom is the future Captain Atom

L'encrage de Freddie Williams II es vachement intéressant... Ca rappelle la grande époque de McDaniels sous influence "Sun City"
