The battle that you've been waiting for is finally here! After failing to prevent the slaughter of millions and being forced to confront the betrayal of Bette Noir, the Paradigm must finally face the Plutonian - and not everyone will make it out alive! Don't miss this staggering issue of Mark Waid's revolutionary superhero saga! Covers by Paul Azaceta and Dan Panosian.
"Irredeemable" isn't some radical deconstruction of the superhero myth, but it's a series in which Mark Waid isn't bound by any corporate demands to protect the icons. And he takes advantage of that. Anything could happen to these characters, and that gives them the kid of life so often lacking in superhero comics. That, along with the powerful, efficient unfolding of the story, makes it worth reading every single month. Read Full Review
This definitely isn't a jumping-on point for new readers, but it's still a very dramatic confrontation between these larger-than-life characters and there is some real weight to the decisions and actions they take. However, I can't help but say that the impact of a lot of that drama and spectacle was diluted by art that often looked like it was done in a hurry, which was doubly disappointing as I liked the art in the previous issue.
