Doom Patrol # 1 (DC Comics 2016)
 |
The atoms are buzzing.
The daydreams crowd sentient streets, and the creative team has been warned, "Turn back now or suffer the mighty consequence of sheer, psycho-maniacal mayhem." Generation-arsonists unite-this is Doom Patrol, and the God of the Super Heroes is bleeding on the floor.
A blenderized reimagining of the ultimate series of the strange, Doom Patrol combines elements from classic runs, new directions, and things that could not be.
Our entry point is Casey Brinke, a young EMT on the graveyard shift to abstract enlightenment, with a past so odd that she's not entirely sure what is real and what is not.
Along with her partner, Sam Reynolds, the pair blaze a path through the city and its denizens, finding the only quiet that exists at 3am is the chaos of the brain.
When the pair answer a hit-and-run call, they find themselves face to face with a familiar figure: Cliff Steele, AKA Robotman.
Doom Patrol # 1 is written by Gerard Way with art by Nick Derrington and a cover by Jaime Hernandez.
Doom Patrol # 1 is a 32 page full color comic book published by DC Comics and is rated M.
