We've been pantsed! There's a new review of The Overman #1 at http://www.comicpants.com/ You can go here to read it, or scroll down for the full review.
I hope you all had a chance to download Centuries In Metamorphosis, the exclusive online 'Making Of The Overman' that was available online for a brief 24 hours. We'll also have more online goodies to unveil next month, with the publication of the second issue. In the meantime, there's still time for you to buy The Overman #1, at your local comic shop. If you're new to comics, you can find your nearest comic shop by calling toll free 1-888-COMIC BOOK. Ask your comic shop if they carry The Overman, and if they don't...well, ask that they do.
From comicpants.com:
'That was one hell of an opener. The Overman is an imaginative read with plenty of characters and hints of more to come, but at its most basic, it's a science-fiction story about a greedy military corporation and a sentient ultimate weapon of mass destruction. It's full of touches that remind this reader of Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison and Alan Moore, from the demanding and clearly deranged naked psychic in a cage to direct-from-the-mind telepathic logs to a space station sized insane asylum. While the storytelling is reminiscent of the sci-fi flavor of the comic book British invasion, though, the artwork is pure '80s American comics, with influences seemingly including Mark Bright, John Byrne and Tom Mandrake. It's an unusual fusion, and the result is something new, a smart yet action-packed sci-fi series with some nice, foreboding promise in the hints of story to come.'
