Could be the next great classic
We all knew that this was going to be good.Mark Waid is one of the most distinguished comic writers around, involved not only in great comic "events" like 52, but one of the great comics events of all time, KINGDOM COME.Mark Waid was part of what made KINGDOM COME so extraordinary, though at least as important was the utterly astonishing art work by Alex Ross.Peter Krause is doing a fine job, but Alex Ross is irreplaceable.Still, IRREDEEMABLE has all the marks of a classic.This is furthermore a story that could never be done with Superman.We'd never believe that he had gone so far over the edge that he would be irredeemable.No one would believe that he would be so far over the edge that he couldn't come back.By inventing a completely new nearly all-powerful superhero makes this story possible.

Essentially, the story is of a Superman-like superhero, the Plutonian, who has gone bad.More precisely, the comic delves into the question of what caused the world's most beloved super hero to turn evil.And by evil, we mean killing many other super heroes and destroying major cities.Killing millions.For fans of ANGEL, it is like Angel becoming Angelus, but with the powers of a Kryptonian.Like Angelus, the Plutonian has not merely become evil, but sadistic.He takes a perverse pleasure in committing atrocities and thrills at the grief he causes others.

The Plutonian was previously part of a group of superheroes, not unlike the JLA.The difference is that the Plutonian has no fellow superhero who is in any way in his class.Superman has Green Lantern and J'onn J'onzz and Wonder Woman, who could definitely give him a battle.In the world of the Plutonian the only person who can challenge him is a genius super villain who is missing.

The narrative proceeds by shifting between the present and at various points in the past.There we see the Plutonian happy, good, and adored.And also looking very different than in the present, in which the blonde hero looks incredibly Aryan, in contrast to the past where he looked All-American.We see moments that contributed to his turn to the dark side.Hopefully there will be a big payoff when we discover the key to his flip.Meanwhile, we are getting a series of issues that are immensely enjoyable.I definitely look forward to this one each month. ...
