Man, I almost forgot how much Giffen's art can rock. When he's on, he's on.

As the story begins, a monster of a man breaks into Cadmus Industries, marching through everything in its path.




O.M.A.C. leaps down the elevator shaft to Cadmus' secret underground levels. He makes his way to the mainframe, smashing through a variety of Kirby-esque enemies in his path.






Reaching the mainframe, he connects his mysterious master to it. Then, his mission accomplished, he teleports out and reverts to his human identity, who has no memory of all that's transpired.

Hmm, well redesign was a little to get used to, but you're right, his Kirby-esque work is spot-on. I was missing the old mohawk, but this power fin thing sorta grew on me.

And Brother Eye coming back in the game; who designed this one? Is it connected to the last one? Is it malevolent or good or on its own side? Is there a human entity behind it, ala Oracle?

Just enough mystery to want to find answers (and the wry sense of humor is refreshing).

It SHOULD be spot-on--he used to be a Kirby assistant, and his earliest DC work(like KOBRA) just BLEEDS Kirby. Not to mention his LEGION work--he brought back the Kirby Crackle, if you recall.

I LOVED this, even if it was in a tributey sort of way and OMAC seems more of a remote-controlled Hulk here.

I think it was done the way it was done to try to obscure the reveal, because who the hell else would it be?

WHO ELSE WOULD MAKE AN O.M.A.C.?

If it's any consolation, he's only the co-writer with Giffen. That helps me sleep a little better. =p

Presumably Giffen wrote it, and DiDio said "needs more tits", thus the girl in the bikini.

(although the colouring error in the next panel makes me smile)

Very much this.

Besides, the writing in this is very much besides the point. If you look at the captions, they read more like "stage directions" than caption writing exactly.

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this, since I don't normally like monstrous heroes. The Neo-Kirby art really has me smiling, since I liked the original OMAC series. I'm interested in what's going on, here, and just how poor Kevin got into this situation.

If they got rid of the OMAC we've seen for the past six years, that's good enough for me. It was a total waste of the concept.
