I like the main character's last name.•• Thought you might! This is the same Eddie Wallace who appeared in the closing chapters of NEXT MEN -- and this is the first real glimpse of the "new future" of the NEXT MEN timeline.

I don't know how much of a signifier this is for broader market appeal, but this got a positive mention over at the Comics Journal site today.
As for me, this is the first comic in quite some time that I'm really interested in reading - to the point of actually going and buying it!
So - since I'm obviously the center of the universe and my own opinion can be used to predict universal outcomes - I'd say you're on to something, here.

I know it is coming tomorrow. And I want to try something new... Not looking at any preview for the first episode... I want to be totally surprised from page 01.
With JB quality of work, I can confidently go with my eyes closed. I know I will not be disappointed !
Looking forward to this !

Pace is great, and love Jonesy's suit!•• Again, I have to compliment Leonard O'Grady for this, and the coloring in general on the issue. I'd asked if Jonesy could have a "chameleon suit" that would just change color from panel to panel, and he went the extra light year and gave us this "lava lamp" effect. I don't know how much extra effort this is costing him, but it's certainly worth it!

I couldn't agree more with all of these positive comments. That teaser really grabs you and makes you want to read more. I was looking forward to seeing this book, and now even more so.

JB - this is the first real glimpse of the "new future" of the NEXT MEN timeline ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------- I've just seen some of the cover previews. the suits on the cover of one of the issues reminded me of Next Men suits. This explains why.
