Ellis and Larroca’s newuniversal Delivers

Warren Ellis and Salvador Larroca have reinvented the New Universe in the pages of newuniveral. After the celestial phenomenon from the first issue, the White Event, ordinary people across the globe now have to come to terms with their new existences and abilities in newuniversal #2.

Presenting a world witnessing super human power for the first time, Ellis and Larroca reintroduce the classic New Universe characters, but with a decidedly different spin. The man who would become Starbrand has just lost his girlfriend and now has seemingly limitless power at his fingertips. But as seen in this preview, people fear that which they don’t understand, which inevitably leads to tragedy.

Tobey Cook of SilverBulletComicBooks.com called newuniversal #1 “a book I can recommend” and “a fun read.”

For a sprawling, realistic but epic take on super humans by Ellis and top-notch Larroca art, you must check out the New Universe reborn in the pages of newuniversal.
