And speaking of alternate spin off lines, here's an entry from the New Universe ... where one night, a light flashed across a world that is supposedly more like our own real world with no superheroes ... and suddenly people found themselves with special talentsDP stands for displaced paranormals
And in this issue (3), we have a bunch of escapees from some agency learning to live life on the road, getting along with each other, finding new uses for their powers while trying to decide if they even want to hang around each other or go home ... if they can go home safely and if their families will have them ... and while all this is happening, they run into the real law as well as the agency's agents who are also DPs ... all in all, a lot for 22 pages, right?
Yup, that's the time when there is no decompression story-telling ... and in this case, it works ... the artwork back then is generally workmanlike house style ... if only it has the chances of today's lusher framing sequences, this may have been a treat
Ratings: 6/10 (2 points for the opening sequence where they trashed the law and then have to save the policemen!)
