The Return of the Secret Six

  • Title: The Secret Six #1
  • Comic Vine: link

“Grant’s characters [from Final Crisis] are high-minded lunatics with visions of universal conquest, while mine are more like desperate carny roustabouts with the clap.”
—writer Gale Simone

The Secret Six return with this new series from writer Gail Simone and artist Nicola Scott.  For those unfamiliar, the Six are a group of villains banded together for mutual interest and money making endeavors.  The new team returns Catman, Deadshot, Ragdoll, and Scandal Savage. and introduces the newest member, Bane.

Here we’re introduced to a new behind-the-scenes villain (or better described as a villain in a box), and by the end of the issue the team has a mission which no one thinks is a good idea.

The first issue is a bit too much set-up, but once the story gets moving and we can see these guys interact, the fun really starts.  There are two great moments worth talking about.

  • Title: newuniversal: Conqueror (One-shot)
  • Comic Vine: link

“The year is 2689 B.C., Slayer King Starr strides along a corridor within Zardath, the shining city.”

The newuniversal historical one-shots continue with this look back at the first heroes adapted by the newuniversal structure thousands of years ago including Starr the Slayer, ruler of the prehistoric city of Zardath.

The shining city of Zardath was a beacon of light in the darkness of prehistoric times.  Here Starr the Slayer ruled, the first Starbrand of the planet Earth, changed by the newuniversal structure to be its first hero.  But something is wrong.

The world’s Nightmask, Trull, has gone insane with a greed for power.  He has destroyed the mind of Zardath’s Justice, Ukru, and killed any other superhumans who have arrived in the city without the king’s knowledge.  An arrival of a mute witch begins to make Starr question the status quo, and wonder aloud what hidden darkness the city of light might be hiding.
