The Fury of Firestorm: The Nuclear Men #1 W: Ethan van Sciver & Gail Simone A: Yildiray Cinar
I
used to love Firestorm back when I was younger and held high hopes for
this, given it's being written by the closest they have to A-list
talent, but the reality doesn't nearly meet up to expectations. The
terrorist plot is far too violent for the rest of the book, and the
whole idea of having two of them seems to just be to encourage childish
taunts
and to make it DC's OMG RACISTS ARE RACIST AND YOU ARE ALL RACISTS DO YOU SEE!!1!!ELEVEN! book of the week.
So
whereas it's not as awful as, say, either of the JT Krul books it's not
actually much cop either. I think we need to see where the Fury plot
goes in #2 before making judgement.
