Paradox Comics Group's Ten Forward: February 2010



Every month Paradox Comicsspend an evening scouring the pages of the latest issue of Previews and pick the ten titles they are looking forward to the most. This month it's the December issue of Previews which includes comics scheduled to ship in February 2010.

PILOT SEASON: STELLAR #1
Writer: Robert Kirkman
Art: Bernard Chang
Image/Top Cow $2.99

Stewart R: This year’s Pilot Season from Top Cow is certainly interesting as it is allowing one of the talented minds of the comic-writing community, Mr Kirkman, to spotlight five separate ideas and then we, the reading public, pick the winner from the selection. Stellar is a top-notch idea in my opinion which sees the titular lead as one of five super-humans created by the government of Earth. As with most of these things the process goes awry and the titular Stellar becomes toxic to other humans and subsequently drives the other four empowered individuals insane. The story seems to revolve around Stellar attempting to use her devastating abilities for good somehow, all the while being pursued by the crazy survivors. I like a good ‘overcoming of adversity’ story so this goes down on my list but I'll be watching to see how this pans out over the course of this teasing one-shot.
