Animal Man in Absolute Power DC
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT He hasn't been in the spotlight for a few years, but a new variant cover hints that one of DC Comics' most underrated heroes and personal favorite of mine is making a return. Animal Man, the hero who took the alternative superhero scene by storm in the late '80s is making a return just in time for the DC Universe's latest calamity.
The last several months have seen news slowly trickle in regarding DC Comics' upcoming summer event Absolute Power. I've been pretty optimistic about this storyline, especially after seeing the wild directions Absolute Power appears to be going in. But nothing has gotten me more excited than a new variant cover released as part of DC's September solicitations.
Absolute Power: Task Force VII #6 comes with a variant by John Timms. This particular variant is part of a connecting series that showcases the event's major players. To my surprise, I discovered Animal Man was featured here, along with Batman's ultimate contingency Failsafe.Fans of Grant Morrison's work don't need to be reminded of how brilliant their revival of the C-lister hero Animal Man was.
I've been pretty disappointed by Animal Man's absence from the DC Universe in recent years. While his daughter Maxine has become a semi-reoccurring character in The Flash, Buddy hasn't had much of a chance to shine. He didn't even get a cameo appearance in Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong, which just screams 'missed opportunity' to me. But Animal Man being featured on a variant cover for Absolute Power fills me with cautious optimism.
