Bad stuff, plain and simple. I wasn't sure at first if I was going to believe this Superman clone (Plutonian) would suddenly snap and turn evil but Waid eventually got me there. He just took his time providing the backdrop to the Plutonian's change. There are other superheroes roaming the planet but not a lot and almost none that can stand up to Plutonian. Their sense of fear is real. Waid does an excellent job of leaving you ready for the next issue. There are surprises and twists and loads of destructive moments. This is not a book for young ones. If I have a complaint, it's that most of the world seems void. The American army shows up and slowly becomes a presence in the story but not by much. The rest of the world seems absent in the plans. Not something that rings true to me. I've only read the omnibus to this point, so maybe things develop more in that regard. On the whole, a comic series I enjoyed. I will pick up the second omnibus when it comes out. I have been thinking about reading this for a while. The Plutonian is an all powerful superhero. This means that over the past decade in addition to saving the world several times over he has heard every negative word and thought people have made about him. In addition he has been betrayed by people he thought he could trust and love. Eventually he snaps and that's where this book begins, in the middle of the fall out. The book goes back and forth between actions before and after the snap. The actions before show the Plutonian at his best AND show the actions that helped him fray. The artwork does a good job showcasing what comes from where in a somewhat obvious way. Things before the snap are bright and happy, even when they aren't necessarily the greatest actions taking place. Things after the snap are much darker and can occasionally be gritty. I find myself wondering if there is anyway to bring the Plutonian back although to say that that seems doubtful at this moment feels like an understatement. It is interesting to see how many people hold themselves partially responsible for this breakdown and how many feel it has nothing to do with them. I am also curious to know whether there was a specific moment that pushed Plutonian over the last precipice or if it really just flipped, like a switch. I've already put in a request for the second volume at the local library and I hope I manage to actually get a hold of it. I have been thinking about reading this for a while.
