    Move over New Gods.

    If you are a fan of the original stories of the new gods you will love this book.  I would even say it is a better story in a similar style.  The story does have a major draw back however as the ending is a cliff hanger with no chance of a conclution unles fans write in.   It don't appear enough peopl wrote in becaue There dosen't seem to be a conclution and even if there was there is little chance of me finding out where it is now.  I know the character make a comeback in later comics but the question is...  What happend in this story.  It was a great origin story that ends at the climax.  Very Harsh.  
     
    The comic is great.   The art is good but, the costumes of these new characters are a little cheesier than I would like.  Over all it is a really neat and fun book.  I gave it four stars.

      DC 1st Issue Special #1 is a decent start to the series. The origin tale of Atlas is told, as promised by the cover. The story is pretty standard stuff for the genre, and what one would expect from Jack Kirby. Told partially in flashback, we are introduced to a character who would, years later, play a relatively important role in a major Superman story arc. (I think James Robinson must LOVE this series, as several of his signature characters have come from 1st Issue Special) The art is also on a...
