    this series will likely be one of the first of the new 52 to go, which is really too bad.  It doesn't have any real name recognition that some of the other worse series might have or the popular characters, but it does succeed in telling a fun enough story.  The problem is though that the story is not really enough as it never really escapes from the realm of fun into something better.  Here it is the same basic thing.  Kevin is finally back home after his small journey to deal with Brother Eye's tasks but he is not too pleased of the role that O.M.A.C. is playing in his life, especially after a pretty miserable first day back at the office.  He figures out that by going underground that the signals to transform him won't work and so takes some refuge in the subway, but that is until some bio-tech creatures target him (their design was pretty interesting as well I thought.)  This leads to scramble to get back to the surface and re-establish contact with the satellite.  All told it was a pretty fun action sequence, but then there was not much more to back it up afterwards.  This series therefore seems to be stuck at a certain level which makes it readable but not notable.

      The Good: The cover is definitely the best so far. The perspective is very nice, with Kevin Kho bolting for the only empty space on the cover, being chased by weird gators while O.M.A.C. towers over him. The space he's heading for just happens to be a circle in the very center of the cover. It draws your eyes right to the center, then in a unique spiral outwards. After all the on-the-run chaos of the first three issues, it's nice to see things settle down a bit, and start to build an actual stat...
