Paul Cornell is great, I mean, this is a very good first issue with crazy ideas and crazy over the top scenery!

We’re introduced to some members of Stormwatch, a secret group of powerful beings sworn to protect the Earth from apocalyptical threats and they’ve been at it for centuries! Martian Manhunter, The Eminence of Blades and a bunch of others all spreat out and evaluating different threats and anomalies (like the moon growing giant claws, or a dead “Shai-Hulud” in the Hymalayas) while some members try to recruit Apollo who just flat-outs refuses and fights them, he’s no hero. Then Midnighter comes in and offers his help to Apollo…

Ideas were over the top and I loved it. I’m eager to see where this one goes, it got my interest for sure!

Sepulveda’s art is pretty good too, lots of details while keeping a clean look, panels were well paced and never felt out of place. I particularly enjoyed the scene where Midnighter is introduced, it just shows how badass the guy is!

Good first issue and I liked the nod to Demon Knights (another book Paul Cornell is writing). I’ll definetely follow Stormwatch for a while!
