Comic Recommendation: Animal Man

A few months back, DC comics made a shocking announce: the whole DC universe was going to be rebooted from scratch; some character origins were going to be rewritten, and almost everyone's costume was redesigned, and lastly, all the new titles were going to get a day 1 digital release for comic readers and gadgets like iPad and such. this provoked an uproar between the fans of long term series like Batman or Green Lantern, and Writters whose stuff was in progress, like Grant Morrison's Bat-Epic "Batman Inc.

52 new comics are going to be released this month as part of this reboot, the first of them, Justice league, was a mild surprise, Geoff johns' new origin is interesting, and last week, stuff like Grant Morrison's Action Comics left me with a good taste in mouth...but only one comic left me with an eager and painful desperate need for MORE.

Ladies and Gentlemen, introducing you to the BEST DC's new title, Jeff Lemire's Animal Man

A brief introduction to the character, just because even me didn't know who the fuck animal man was before reading this masterpiece:

Animal Man is a superhero/stuntman/actor/activist, with a normal life and a normal family, a wife and 2 kids, Buddy Baker have the power to channel the properties of every animal in the world, thanks to his control over the "life web"(something similar to the Flash's Speed Force), he had a groundbreaking comic back when Grant Morrison reintroduced him in the early 90's which included none less, a metaphysical encounter between Animal Man, and Grant Morrison himself.

This new #1 introduces Buddy with almost none changes except for his costume, the comic starts as a light hearthed reading, when Buddy and his wife talk about an interview he made for a magazine, about a new independent movie he main starred for director Ryan Darranovsky's(lol)"Tights", the story of a superhero. his son tells him about a hostage situation on the TV, and he goes to the rescue. we get a taste of good ol' bad guy beating when suddenly, the comic do a 1080 degree turn and after stopping the gunned man, he starts to bleed from his eyes and ears in a creepy way.

After getting revised by a doctor without any negative result, he goes back to home, with his family sleeping, he gets the napping ability of a cat, and as soon as he sleeps...

Shit starts to get real weird.....
