Wayne Russell is an elite pararescue jumper in the Air Force serving in Afghanistan. He leads the most rigorously trained troops on the most dangerous missions into enemy territory. During a deadly mission, Wayne's team is ambushed. Mortally wounded, Wayne finds and fires an experimental weapon, but the weapon malfunctions. The result will change Wayne and warfare forever.
"Bring the Thunder" #1 is a solid beginning to the Alex Ross-created comic about a US soldier in Afghanistan turned into a superhuman. So much of the issue happens without a proper context, though, that it's hard to get too hook yet. The art is strong and Ross and Nitz make an effort to write the lead as a unique character.
