Product Description
By Alex Ross, Jim Krueger & Stephen Sadowski

From the dawn of the 20th Century came a new chapter in mankind's history, unleashed during a time of great war and destruction. It was the beginning of the Age of the Superpowers, yet with the closing of the Second World War, this new spark seemingly flickered and died. Until now! This explosive #0 issue features a story crafted by Justice collaborators Alex Ross and Jim Krueger, joined by artists Stephen Sadowksi, Doug Klauba and featuring a final page painted by Ross himself! The story of Superpowers begins here, in the present day with the Fighting Yank, coming to terms with the ghosts of his past and present! Journey to the heights and depths of the Second World War as the story unfolds and come face-to-face with the great forgotten heroes of the ages, and solve the mystery of these legends disappearance after the great war!


I just picked it up for a buck the other day and don't know what to make of it....kinda stuck on the fence.

Did anyone else get it and what do you think of it?

I know nothing about these guys, but I am sticking around to get more and to help out the independent comics book makers.

I would also recomend picking it up
Btw i just joined the site to reply, and it dawned on me, i was talking to my friends about it and made three of them read it, long story short...i have not done that more than 4 or 5 times, i am really interested and concerned about the characters and i am looking forward to seeing where it leads

endrict
Who many covers did you get??? I got all of them.

starlock
I got two covers (thats all my guy had) were there more?

endrict
There are the 50/50 Ross covers and Micheal Tuner's normal one. There are also Ross incentive and Turner incentive, so a total of 4.

Martian_mind

If Devil turns out to be Australian(Boomerangs!!!)

That'd be pimp.

There is some really good action in this issue.

I was also told by my comic book store to read it but I haven't had the chance yet. How have the first two issues been?

Issue 2 is really good and I think it's better than the first one.

starlock
I have two issues, but i am confused about it starting at 0? i could be wrong, but i do have two issues and they are great....i did not mind allot of the story in the first one...which sets up the premise of the story and has some flashbacks....usually i get bored and frustrated at some attempts at this, but i was very interested and found myself liking it allot

I know funny and odd isn't it? from 0 straight into issue 2 and no issue 1....confused

Endrict Nuul
I like that Samson guy (the blind old guy). He was deflecting tank shells with his staff and lifting tanks....this guy is a beast so far. The Black Terror also looks cool, Death Defying Devil, the split color guy with spikes and throws boomerangs is kinda cool. The silver Scarab guy is alright too.




Some of the art for those who don't know about this series.

For anyone who wants to start a new series that is really good, then I suggest this one.


Well maybe it's not new.

Something cool about Samson and seems to be getting more of a interesting character.

Samson, due to his relation to the Biblical character, had super strength, invulnerability, and super-speed. He would lose these powers if his hair was cut. These powers would be restored once his hair regrew. Fortunately, Samson's hair grew at an accelerated rate.

There is a issue one but somehow I missed it.

Endrict Nuul
Just got issue one today and it was really good.

Endrict Nuul
Issue 3 just came out..


I thought there was too many things going on at the same time with too many characters. The result of this is the plot is kind confusing.


Great art as usual, Black Terror and Samson are cool as expected.

starlock

dynamite has upgraded CF immensely since his "startling comics" days.

The Nuul
The Green Lama has some really good showings, his green magic seems powerful.
