Catalyst Prime has begun! One year after "The Event", missing astronaut David Powell has resurfaced! With dangerous new abilities and no memory of the man he once was. While desperately trying to regain his identity David quickly finds himself a man on the run from shadowy forces as well as his forgotten past. From writer Brandon Thomas (Horizon, Civil War II: Choosing Sides), artist Roger Robinson (Batman: Gotham Knights, Solo Avengers), and colorist Juan Fernandez.
It will be especially fascinating to see how Powell's story is woven in with the six other series on deck, but for now Thomas and Robinson seem comfortable steering their member of the fleet. Catalyst Prime: Noble #1 is an exciting genesis for a superhero tale that is still deferential to its genre but thankfully also crisp around the edges. Read Full Review
Noble #1 is a solid book with intriguing characters and a sense of mystery that will hook you in early. This debut issue of the Catalyst Prime world may not change the superhero game forever, but the Noble team offers a solid story with enough emotionally-charged moments to get you invested enough in Astrid and Noble to want to follow along in future issues. For those looking for new alternatives to bigger publishers' current offerings, Noble #1 is worth checking out. Lion Forge has put together a talented team for the series, and their debut issue is a strong enough read to suggest the future title debuts should be worth a look as well. Read Full Review
Reading the book, I was aware of a certain vacuous experience.Whilst comics are meant to be escapism, I do prefer my character to have something to hold onto. Here, with a man with no past, where is the connection? The connection is going to have to come from Astrid and her mission, which I am sure we will see beginning in the next couple of issues.
