Will it be in my pull list? Perhaps.

Previews Text: They are Stormwatch, a dangerous super human police force whose existence is kept secret from the world.

Directly following the ominous events of SUPERMAN #1, Adam One leads half the Stormwatch team to recover the [INFORMATION REDACTED] from deep in the Himalayas. Meanwhile, Jack Hawksmoor and the rest of the Stormwatch crew look to recruit two of the deadliest super humans on the planet: Midnighter and Apollo! And if they say no? Perhaps the Martian Manhunter can change their minds...

Okay. So funny story here. Superman #1 isn't actually out yet. And it isn't going to be out until September 28th. But that's alright, they never really showed too much of what was going on in the Himalayas anyway, so it wasn't really a spoiler. There was just some sort of big purple worm thing with no explanation about it whatsoever.

Did you know that Stormwatch is supposed to be the bridge between the Wildstom and DC Universes? This is the way in which the characters of Wildstorm will be introduced. Well, this and Grifter, but that comes later. Like. When it actually comes out.

I really enjoyed this comic even though it wasn't very many characters I know about. It wasn't the best of the week or anything, but it was still fun to read. And if I have room for another title in my pull list come this time next month I'll definitely be adding it in.
