*SPOILERS*





Anyone reading this? I read the first two issues and it's cool to see these characters back, but kinda sad because it seems like most of the old Omega Men are dead? I only read a few issues of the original very weird comic series in the 80s.

Another question who is this new alien guy who looks like he has to huge computer monitors as eyes and no face, he took down Superman with a mere thought. Is he telephathic or something? He really took Supes out like it was nothing, pretty damn powerful.

I'm reading it and loving it (moreso becuase of Dox appearances than the Omega Men though)

btw - I haven't read #3 yet, I only get my books once a month so thanks (not!) for the warningless spoiler (grumble mutter moan :mad: )

I've only read the first 2 issues, not the third, so what do you mean?

So far as I know, the third issue hasn't even come out yet.

To answer your questions, yeah, a lot of them have died over the years and been replaced. Its kind of the nature of them fighting against an entire empire, I think. Only the toughest survive, and I don't think anyone would argue that Tigorr rates high on that list.

As for the moniter guy, thats the Doc. He's a machine that has powers of healing. However, he can use those powers in destructive ways, as he did against Superman, to affect their physiology.

Not telepathic, though.

hmm... I have to re-read issue 2 then. Certainly can't remember the Doc vs Superman thingo (lol, my memory fails me in my old age).

Consider my last post a mispost then.

Apologies to Ite, I initially thought he was revealing something from the next issue :o

btw, is it just me, or does that priestess look like Zena Moonstruk (from L.E.G.I.O.N.)?

Not familiar with that character, but just FYI (and you may already know this) the character of Lianna (the priestess) already existed. She was introduced in the Raab GL run.
