Last year's DC You relaunch is generally regarded as a failure, and when it comes to A-List franchises like Superman, Flash and Wonder Woman, perhaps that's true. However, DC You also served as a breeding ground for some truly fantastic, ground-breaking reinventions of lesser-known DC properties. Above all, it gave us The Omega Men. A book like this is enough to make up for 100 lousy Superman crossovers.
With The Omega Men, writer Tom King and artist Barnaby Bagenda set about reviving the dormant science fiction franchise and giving it a modern spin. But far from simply providing DC with an answer to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, The Omega Men: The End Is Here displays a rare ambition. In chronicling a massive rebellion unfolding in a far corner of the DC Universe, King and Bagenda crafted a heartfelt story about the futility and ceaseless nature of war. Ignore the trippy sci-fi elements and super-powers and you have a very clear allegory for the conflict in the Middle East. How many superhero books can boast that?
