Captain Atom #11

/ / Comics

captain-atom-new-52-11-coverWhat happens when a near omnipotent being gives into his own desires and greatest wish to be human again? The latest issue of Captain Atom shows us the unforeseen consequences when Captain Atom puts his consciousness in a human form to reconnect with humanity in general, and with Renita specifically.

Once again writer J.T. Krul takes an intriguing idea, Nathaniel Atom re-experiencing life as a “normal” man, and turns the story on its side by showing us that while most of Nate’s consciousness is walking around with Renita, his comatose form is also trying to make the wishes of those closest to him come true as well – whether that be the return of a dead relative, a collection of toys from childhood, or granting Dr. Megala‘s greatest wish.

However, it appears these unconcious gifts might actually be far more dangerous than the chance the human version of Nate gets into with Renita as the two finally give into their feelings for each other. Worth a look.

[DC, $2.99]

  • Title: Man of Steel
  • IMDB: link

Warner Bros. released an initial teaser trailer for Man of Steel, DC’s new Superman reboot starring Henry Cavill as Superman. Directed by Zack Snyder, the initial trailer gives us lots of slow moving montage, little story, and Clark Kent who apparently is working with Forest Gump and Bubba as a shrimp fisherman. I’m so confused. Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Michael Shannon, Laurence Fishburne, and Tahmoh Penikett also star. Man of Steel opens in theaters next June.

That is, unless Peter (Tim DeKay) and Mozzie (Willie Garson) can find a way to separate Neal from Collins and get the con man back to New York on their own. The only thing Peter can offer the FBI to save Neal is something they may want more than Caffrey, and Peter has a pretty good idea what that might be when he figures out who Dobbs really is.
