Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom #3 Review

Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom #3

Crank up the mythological fire. This one is getting hotter by the minute. Today I will be reviewing Doctor Solar, Man of the Atom #3. Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

So let’s talk about the book. Picking up where last issue left off, Solar battles the god-like Moloch. The fight is fierce and intense but in the end Solar wins and Moloch flees. Solar returns to Pickerel to confront him but unfortunately Moloch gets there first. Solar leaves. Then Moloch forces Pickerel to create an army for him whole he proceeds to have his way with Susan, Pickerel’s other creation. Meanwhile, Solar returns to work and sets up a date with Gail, his love. Moloch sends his army to attack Solar and the good Doctor is more than happy to enter the fray. And that’s the book.

So let’s talk opinions. Finally, a perfect issue. Action packed with a smooth flowing story. Super powered beings and god-like enemies. I like how Dr. Solar has plenty of mental issues as well. Moloch is one bad ass dude. He just took over the entire situation. Why Pickerel did not just uncreate him immediately is something I can’t understand. (Can he unmake his creations?) Poor Susan. I guess this book is no longer PG. Artistically, a slam dunk once again. Nice action sequences. Great energy artwork. Very colorful. Overall, a great reminder of how good Jim Shooter can be when he wants to be. Let’s hope the improvements continue. That’s my opinion folks. Take it or leave it.

I have been a comic collector and reader for 25 years. My major comic love is all things Marvel with the X-Men being at the top. I also dabble in anything and everything that catches my eye. Guess that makes me the "all over the place" reviewer. A title which I claim with pride. I am a happily married man of almost 10 years living in Brooklyn, NY with my wife and two amazing boys. I hope you enjoy my opinions and I look forward to reading and responding to any comments or criticisms.
