"O.M.A.C." is a distinctly DC comic that isn't afraid to be quite unlike other comics while also playing up the main thing that makes comics so darned entertaining: suspension of disbelief. This book is a mega-blockbuster, high-octane, popcorn flick transcribed to paper. DiDio and Giffen do a great job paying tribute to Jack Kirby specifically and DC Comics in general. This is the one comic from the relaunch that surprised me, continues to surprise, and seems poised to offer even more surprises in the near future. Read Full Review

On almost every page, they are giving us big, loud action but they are also sowing the back-story seeds, building their story by creating new questions with almost every issue. And that's also recapturing the fun of monthly comics, where every 30 days you get an issue that makes you want more. Read Full Review
