Dial H. #1 preview/discussion spoilers

[MartinNL]

The L.A. Times just posted the preview for Dial H. #1 here.

What do you think?

Edit: Just read the preview and looks and reads fantastic. Definitely has me interested. I hope there'll be an extra copy when I get to my LCS.

*Need money 4 karate lessons* LOL

[Mr. Holmes]

This kind of reminds me of Jim Carey's the Mask.

The preview looks good. I can't wait to finally be able to read this.

[FHIZ]

Nevermind, they posted the high res links, good for them.

ANyways, looks awesome. I wonder what the main antagonist of this series is going to be. The author has been very hush hush.

[The Animal Man]

anyone else notice how the main character on the cover seems like An Average Beefy Build but within the actual comic itself He's Obscenely Overweight

[El Sombrero]

Feel like I've been waiting for this preview forever!

This looks SO GOOD. Cannot wait to read. "Boy Chimney," O-M-freakin-G. Legendary.

[Mr. Holmes]

Legendary.

You're supposed to wait for it!

[sberg1]

This. Looks. Awesome. I'm thinking it's going to be my favorite of Wave 2.

[Imraith Nimphais]

I cannot wait!!!!!

Looks good. The art is great and the dialogue and inner monologues feel natural. Hope the characters are interesting. I guess I'll check the first issue of both this and Earth-2 and the winner takes a spot on my pulling list!

Can somone explain me this, because I'm not familiar with the concept of Dial H: When Nelse uses the dial, he gets the appearance and powers of Super-heroes, or he becauses the conduit of another super-powered person? To say it differently, after using the dial the guy who comes out is Nelse or a totally different guy (in this occasion Boy Chimney)?

That is pretty much it: Nelson transforms into a variety of super powered characters by using the dial. Rather like Ben 10.

Strange looking character idea, though. Why is DC crawling with monsters now? That's more of a Marvel thing, traditionally.

[majormcmeat]

This looks outstanding. It's going to be up there with Wonder Woman and Animal Man.

In quality, I mean. I can't imagine that it'll sell all that well.

[new_onslaught]

So its his personality? Or he changes based on the Superhero he turns into, like Jim Carey in the Mask? If his personality changes, that would be interesting (me thinks).

[neverender]

So this isn't the same guy using the Dial every issue is it? That'd get pretty old really quick.

I had antcipated this series highly, but reading those pages seems to have put a damper on it. Oh, well. That's why they let you sample the books beforehand, so you can gauge it before spending your money.
