The Mighty, a new comic from writers Peter Tomasi and Keith Champagne, is a story of friendship and mystery surrounding the world's only superhero, Alpha-One.
The two writers developed the idea for The Mighty back when Tomasi was an editor at DC and Champagne was working as an inker. Now that they're both established comic book writers, the two are uniting with artist Peter Snejbjerg to bring The Mighty to readers in February. Shipping with a cover by Dave Johnson, as well as a variant cover by Ivan Reis, The Mighty #1 will be the first of 12 issues that the pair of writers hope will lead into another volume.
Based on the idea that our world has one superhero, a soldier who developed powers during World War II, The Mighty follows the friendship Alpha-One develops with the man who leads his "clean-up crew," Section Omega.
Newsarama talked to Tomasi and Champagne about what readers can expect from the comic and how they came up with the idea.
Newsarama: First, how did you two get together to do this series?
