Mark Millar's Superior Issue #1 Review!!!!!

Ok, ok, you can pick up that I'm one of the only comic geeks that like Mark Millar, yeah so what? Well Mark Millar again writing on the Icon Imprint/Marvel, starts to write something great again. Now lately everything has been very violent and vulgar and pushing the boundaries. But this time Millar promises us a more of a for everyone styled comic-book, we all know he loves superman, right? He Exploits the fact that a lot of us say that, Superman is too perfect, and not relatable, unless you're a illegal alien. I was more into guys like PRIME (ULTRAFORCE) or  CAPTAIN MARVEL (SHAZAAM not Kazaam you asshole) because they were kids/teens who could transform into Superman styled characters. Well Mark Millar has been writing comics in the style of, how could it be possible for these things to happen in our real time.So he takes and gives us Superman and Shazaam Mixed.

Superior is about a young boy who has MS (Multiple Sclerosis) and has went from being a great athlete to being battered and handicap. We start by seeing a Superhero on the big screen, and two best friends watching it. Simon and his Best friend Chris are enjoying the movie, after the movie ends Chris speaks on how Superior is too Perfect, but Simon doesn't agree, he thinks he's the best superhero ever. While outside the theater some kids tease Simon for having MS, but his friend Chris takes up for him. His Hot Comic book Drawn mom later comes to help him too, but he thinks about how much his friend is a great person. It makes him think about what he can't do or be anymore, but as he goes to sleep a special character greets him. And our friend Scott Pooni is granted a wish that will change his life forever, he becomes THE SUPERIOR. This is a series I'm very excited about, especially because of how the story is written, and the art by Leinil Francis Yu is beautiful. I would give this series so far a 9.5/10 its amazing, I'm excited to know what is going to happen. It's a nice start to a series, it reminds me of what we'd love to wish for, if we were granted powers (Comic Geeks at least).
