Über, new ongoing by Kieron Gillen in Avatar

The different "classes" of Uber is one of the best ideas in this title. I did have problems with issue #0 in that a lot of the characters looked very similar, but I guess that's always a problem with the Nazi Aryan look.

Interested in anything Gillen does

Thank you for posting that link Mr Gillen. There is a lot of great stuff in it and it does address some of the confusion I felt with issue zero. I have high hopes going forward because it is a very intriguing concept.

Second this. Cant wait for issue 2 hope that sells out!

Uber #1 was better than the #0 issue, but i will be dropping this book now.

Why are you dropping it if you are the book improving? Just wondering what your reason is?

I am surprised about the mixed reviews. I thought the book was great as it offered a darker and different look at ww2 and does not seem to be that the "good guys" will win. After reading Gillen's backmatter I am more excited for issue 2 and will be continuing. I feel like this will be an interesting read as the characters seem compelling in a way where you may not like them personally but want to see what happens and what they do next. I need to track down the 0 issue somewhere.

Does anyone know how long the series is planned for?

I just can't get into a book with Nazi's winning the war.

Not really familiar with Gillen has done previously because I don't read superhero comics. Avatar is my favorite publisher so I'm going to give it a go, I can understand how the violence and gore can turn some people off though.

So can you buy this comic online? I only buy my comics online anymore.

lasraik, check out his X-Men run.

I love 'Murrica but I'm glad to see it sit out of two whole issues for a change. I think it's respectful of Gillen to show that for one, Nazis weren't pushovers and two, evil comes in many shades that cover both sides of the fence. How this fictional account reconciles with the history he's very clearly studied remains to be seen; it's far too soon to call this story a Nazi victory.

"Give me opera" was chilling as hell... wish I could meet those dudes at the Phoenix Comic Con.

I asked at C2E2 about Avatar getting their books online. The response I got was an unofficial "soon." I think Apple approving Saga and Black Kiss 2, among other books, might have lead to talks between Avatar and Comixology.
