Transmutation could possibly take Hyperion out since he doesn't have the fts of resistance, BUT, Hyperion mainly withstood everything that came his way in stride. I'm giving this to him.

There are limits to his invulnerability. A nuke going off did a number on him. Firestorm can power up to city leveling blast.

FS possessed enough energy to, rather easily, overload the beastly DCnU Captain Atom as well.

How Captain Atom died, bothers me. There has to be context behind it, because when he absorbed his Alternate C. Atoms, he was fine. And as far as I know Atom is much more powerful than FS.

DC preserved a shitty character. Killed of C. Atom, and The Ray is lost in writers limbo.

Its Dan Jurgens. City leveling blasts in his opinions are about planet leveling blasts in other writers' opinion.

I remember that scene. He wasn't at full power either AND he has also withstood nukes as well. He tanked Human Torch Nova blast that was stated during the time as being hotter than the sun.

What other nuke did he withstood? I only remember that one time.

He was in the heart of his heat vision blast that went all nuclear.

I don't even know what that is.

This guy. I think he comes out when both Raymond and Ronnie lock or something. Been so long, forgot, but it was mainly a Gail Simone thing. After she was gone from being a writer, the other writer didn't use it.

No matter what the version, Captain Atom has always been able to be overloaded. It's ridiculous, I agree, but there's no denying it.

I just think they could have found a better way to kill him off, given that just prior, the same feat failed to kill him off. It just creates inconsistency, writers laziness can be a real pain.

What the hell is up with DC Editorial? It seems as though they started off fine with the relaunch, and not its taking a dive bomb.

^ Really depends which titles you're following. Some started out excellent but have gone to complete shit, some started out horribly but have become superb, and some have been consistently great since the beginning.

While Firestorm was shit throughout its run.

They started a few titles, that where pure win. And then canceled them, or did not continue them.

I Vampire
Captain Atom
The Ray
OMAC

There is more but just the ones of the top of my head.

Truly that was a legitimately turrible read.

It got better at issue #13, when they erased that horrid 'Nuclear Men' concept, but by then the damage was done. It's a real shame, because we've seen how good a Firestorm series can be when done well(ie. the 2004 series), but I digress...

'I, Vampire' in particular should have been saved at all costs. It was, and remains to be, absolutely brilliant. 👆

I'd also add 'Demon Knights' and 'Frankenstein, Agent of SHADE' to that list.

"Id" The Man of Tomorrow

The death of I Vampire, and Frankenstein, Agent of SHADE can bring a grown man like Richard Kuklinski to tears.

Gail Simone is well past her prime now. Tell that to her fangirls though, they will kill you.
