The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of THE
F1RST HERO: WEDNESDAY’S CHILD #1 from Action Lab Comics. The story is by Anthony
Ruttgaizer, with art by Marco Renna, colors and lettering by Fred C Stresing.
Jacob Roth is back on his Earth following the events of
ACTIONVERSE. His day of surprises begin with a visit by the Extrahuman Task
Force, led by a man from his past. The excitement continues as an extrahuman
who calls himself Catalogue introduces himself to Jacob and helps him try to
hone his powers. But is Catalogue a friend or foe? All while this is going on,
Jacob’s immediate threat is making her presence known…a little girl with deadly
abilities.
I’m a little late to THE F1RST HERO (this is third
miniseries), but was interested in the character thanks to the ACTIONVERSE
event. The concept of a person who develop powers goes insane (except for our
hero) is an intriguing one. Jacob is obviously influenced by his recent cross
universe trip and wants to become a hero; a dangerous decision given the world’s
fear of extrahumans. Renna and Stresing bring a really interesting visual to
this issue; it looks great. Ready to see what is next.
If you like super heroes, you should check out the ACTIONVERSE line. They are getting it right first time out.
