Tom Strong (Hardcover)

Customer Review

This collection contains the first seven issues of the ongoing 'Tom Strong' series. In creating Tom Strong, Alan Moore has combined many of the archetypal characteristics of the heroes from Pulp Magazines (especially Doc Savage), but at the sametime updated the concept for the 21st Century, providing readers with the enthralling adventures of the premier science hero of Millenium City.
Worth Mentioning is the factthat Moore Avoids the typical flaws of the superhero genre with his use of accurate characterization, fantastic settings, cunning villains and even a plot twist or two, Which in the end make reading this book a truly fun experience.
With Tom Strong Alan Moore Evokes the energy of the classic Jack Kirby run on Fantastic Four. This work truly helps revitalize the comic book medium.
